it isa can't i see baby archie? it is a separate just like desperate attempt to have anything from brexit. he wants to get his name in all the papers and he has managed it and he is proving why he shouldn't be allowed to see him, and i don't know why they are printing it. don't we need a comedy written about this? jack—in—the—box jumps up every time something happens. gets into the papers. yes, ifi something happens. gets into the papers. yes, if i were meghan and harry, i would just put all this on one side, give it all up, go live in paris. i saw a suggestion on the mail‘s mid side they might be moving to la. they have had enough. that is it for the papers tonight. don't forget — you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you, seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/slash papers. and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. a big thank you. thanks for coming

in. next, the film review. good night. this hello, and a very warm welcome to the film review. this week we have james king with me. good to see you, james. what have you been watching? well, it's been enjoyably intense week at the cinema. i'm going to be talking about taylor—johnson's epic, a million little pieces. and markjenkins' wonderfully minimal bait. plus, joanna ponders wonderfully addictive drama, the souvenir.

it's like a venn diagram of topics this week. a million little pieces, quite a controversial little book. it was a bestseller. so this is sam taylor—johnson directing it, adapting it and producing it with husband aaron taylor—johnson, he is also in it, so it's very much a family project. it's about james wright, it's semiautobiographical, it's about his drug rehabilitation in america. aaron taylor—johnson and juliette lewis who plays his therapist in the clinic. coffee ? sure, thanks. that's yours? no, that's my boyfriends. i ride. yeah.

i've been riding for about ten years. it turns out there's a way to feed the soul, notjust destroy it. i go on fishing trips every now and then. i'm good with a rod, but a drink like a fish. we're all aa here, everyone who works in this joint from the janitors to the counsellors, we're all addicts. juliette lewis, makes me think we don't see enough of her. that is what i thought. and i also thought what a great voice she has. one of the great voices. the supporting cast are really interesting. billy bob thornton is in there as well, another patient at this clinic. like chalk and cheese characters him and aaron taylor—johnson. like a father figure to him, really. the supporting cast are really good

and provide the lighter moments. a lot of it is very intense and dramatic, gutsy. it felt to me like it was almost sam taylor—johnson who has previously directed fifty shades of grey, saying forget that, this is the kind of thing i really want to be making. obviously that was a big movie but not particularly critically praised. and i don't think it's something that she enjoyed that much making as a film director. this is the kind of thing she wants to be doing. this is her saying i can really do character pieces. i can do movies where the actors really have to act. intense, gritty? he is full—on method, broken and bruised, you can see him just fading away in front of you as this addict. is it a tough watch, given the subject matter? absolutely. but two things make it enjoyable. one is the acting because it is so good and two is the supporting characters.

they are there just when you need the mood to be lightened. just when you need. i am treated by the second choice this week. explain. this is a wonderfully experimental drama from markjenkin, cornish director. it is about a feud in a cornish fishing village between locals and tourists. and he shot it on a 60mm camera using old monochrome film, he then processed it himself, there are glitches in the film, there are scratches in the film, and what you get actually is a film that on the one hand looks and feels a bit like it was made a long time ago. it looks like that for sure. like it was something from the early days of cinema. but the flipside is that it feels excitingly sentimental and ava nt garde in some respects. because so much of it is about a traditional way of life, the old way of life, for these cornish fishing men, the fishing industry, and they are old techniques and methods, i think actually a way that the film looks work

beautifully with that. it also creates a lot of tension. it's creepy sometimes because there is a building tension between the weekenders, the londoners, the second homeowners in this fishing village, and the locals. that's interesting. the editing is radical at times which helps to build that up, as does the acting. so, it's certainly — it is not everyone‘s cup of tea, i can appreciate that, but it is not like anything else at the cinema at the moment. even though it nods back to olderfilms, it feels very new. 0k. interesting. not fishermans friend's. no, very different. the souvenir, the third choice for this week which i think is a really interesting film and i mean interesting in a good way. yeah, absolutely. interesting is always the film critic's way... ..of hedging their bets. this is from joanna hogg another minimal film—maker.

about a young film student, julie, partly based onjoanna hogg's life and a relationship each begins with an older man who seems on the face of things very confident, very well spoken. very charming. he's actually hiding a secret. so honour swinton byrne stars in this. along with tom burke who can hold a cigarette better than anyone else in cinema. let's have a look. did miriam play the cello? no. the violin? no, she wasn't at all musical. she wasn't even pretty, actually. that's... not true. well, she had other qualities. like what? darling, i can't tell you in here. thank you. excuse me? i'm just playing, julie. stop torturing yourself. i'm not torturing... stop inviting me to torture you.

ugh. "ugh." eurgh! that's exactly how you make me feel when you're being like this. thank you. it all gets much darker though doesn't it? don't be fooled by that clip. it gets grittier. what i really like about it is that it doesn't feel like it is really pushing you in any one direction, it is not bullying you as an audience to think one thing or another. it has a distance about the whole thing. it lets you find for yourself what you want to think. a lot ofjoanna hogg's films do. so you actually build your own opinions rather than the film telling you what to think. it has a subtlety about it, complexity about it, and some wonderful performances. honour swinton byrne you might recognise, she is tilda swinton's daughter. she plays tilda swinton's daughter in the film. and she is great.

look out for richard ayoade. he is only in it for one scene and he steals his scene. it is slow, complex, eerie at times. quite unsettling at times. but i think that is very rewarding. i found it quite... maybe, particularly as a woman, quite a stressful watch because i thought you have got to leave him! now you really have to leave him! this is really stressing me out. but it is about someone who is only in her early 205 who doesn't have the confidence and maturity to see that. yeah, and she plays it perfectly and tom burke plays it perfectly. i think he has a bafta nomination in the bag. he was amazing. i would hope so. he is particularly sleazy and unpleasant to watch. i think it is the pinstripe suits. they are unsettling. we both loved pain and glory.

pedro almodovar reuniting with antonio banderas. it is a semiautobiographical story about a director struggling with creativity, pain, literal pain, back pain and looking back on his childhood. looking back on his life. some very familiar themes for the director, the mother—son relationship, sexuality, film—making. gorgeous, bright colours! that is how you know you're watching one of his films. but i think the difference is that personal side, it feels even more honest. he is always honest in his films but this feels even more so he is opening his heart. i think he hits 70 in a few weeks and it certainly feels like he's a man who is now looking back on things. yes. i think it's glorious and banderas is glorious as well. a quick thought about dvds and streaming? amazing grace. aretha franklin recorded the album,

it was filmed, the film never came out, it was never edited, never put together but that much until a few months ago, last year in fact. it's a live recording of one of her performances in a gospel church. when, after 46 years, they finally put together this documentary of aretha singing this album and that is what this is. it is 90 minutes of aretha franklin and the southern california coming to a choir—singing gospel. very simple, that is the joy. so pure and so simple and it is aretha franklin at the height of her powers. everyone i know who has seen it says it is very uplifting. even if you don't like soul music, you can witness the passion of singing. you might not like gospel but watching it, you will fall in love. thank you very much, james with all your recommendations for the weekend ahead. enjoy your weekend whatever you go and see. see you next time. goodbye.

a quick update on the hurricane first of all because it is better in northern parts of the bahamas this weekend. a high—end category for hurricane with wind sustained at 150 mph, significant storm surge and there could be half a metre of rainfall. it is headed towards florida but now it is not expected to make landfall. it will run northwards and probably stay off the coast. here in the uk, the weather is not quite as rheumatic. not as dangerous either. we have had this band of cloud sweep down across the country and behind it we are drawing on the north—westerly breeze, meaning cooler fresh air for the start of the new month, the start of meteorological autumn as well. not a great deal of rain towards eastern areas but the showers continue further north especially across

northern and western parts of scotland. a few will return to northern ireland, a couple for north—west england and wales. still a good chance of seeing the northern lights for the northern parts of the uk but the clear skies will be further south and for all of us it will be cooler than it was last night with temperatures 7—9d. start but a sunny start for most of england and wales on sunday. a peppering of showers and northern ireland. most of them, some heavy and thundering, pushing eastwards across scotland and northern england down towards the wash. in the afternoon there will not be many showers for wells in the midlands it may be dry all day across southern england where temperatures may reach 20 degrees but elsewhere with the showers, 15 or 16. a cool day but not as windy. some heavy showers for a while across eastern scotland north—east england during the evening. fewer showers coming in with cloud across northern ireland. some break in the cloud ahead of that, another cold monday morning, especially north—eastern scotland. it could drop to two or three degrees perhaps. the weather will

change slightly on monday and instead of north—westerly wind we get a mild cloudy self westerly wind around the area of high pressure. mall weather fronts coming in from the atlantic. blustery wind developing through the day, a bright start for england and wales but turning to cloud from the west. patchy rain to northern ireland and the wet weather pushing into scotland, perhaps cumbrian. 15 degrees through the central belt, 22 in the south—east of england. looking ahead cloud and rain to come on tuesday and again mainly in the west. it gets chilly with north—westerly winds from the middle of the week onwards.

this is bbc news. i'm lewis vaughan jones. our top stories: tunning battles and brutal violence —— running battles and brutal violence in hong kong in some of the worst clashes yet between police and protesters. it is the very centre of hong kong, and look at it. they warned them not to protest today. the government buildings under siege and it is complete mayhem. tens of thousands take to the streets across britain to protest against prime minister borisjohnson's decision to suspend parliament. fierce fighting in the northern afghan city of kunduz as a taliban suicide bombing leaves at least ten people dead. and bearing down on the bahamas — hurricane dorian threatens catastrophic damage.
