i tried taking my own life because ijust thought if i get the blame for everything, then why don't i removed then why don't i remove myself from the situation? tia's mental health is now improving after months of focused support. i think i've come quite a long way, because i wouldn't imagine myself to be where i am now. but this specialist help is rare. and natasha believes that many thousands of children are still struggling alone, just like carl, all those years ago. if you could talk to the ten—year—old you, what would you say to him? oh, god, that's hard. i'd tell him, "you don't deserve this." i wouldn't be able to tell him anything else, because he wouldn't have anything else...

he would have nowhere to go. and it's not his fault. the headlines on bbc news... as the number of people infected with coronavirus continues to rise, the world health organization says there's a shortage of protective clothing and masks. a gp who committed 90 sexual assaults on female patients has been given three life sentences with a minimum term of 15 years. philip schofield — one of britain's most famous tv presenters — has come out as gay. now on bbc news, a look ahead to sportsday at 6:30pm tonight... we've got a packed sportsday for you, this evening. huge weekend coming up of six nations rugby. so we're out and about with the very latest, the calcutta cup has been in scottish hands for the past two years. we'll be live at murrayfield, ahead of tomorrow's match against england. remember, both sides lost on the opening weekend.

we'll also be live in dublin, as ireland prepare to face wales. they both won their opening matches. we've also got boxing news. a big british heavyweight bout has been confirmed, and we'll mark your card for the weekend's football, as well. limited fixture list in the premier league because of the winter break. that is all coming up in sportsday at 6:30pm, but now on bbc news, it's time for the film review. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. 50, mark, what do we have this week? exciting week. birds of prey, the new harley quinn film. we have dolittle, he can talk to the

animals, this time with a welsh accent. and parasite, the international hit from bong joon ho. quite a mixture. it really is. birds of prey and the fantabulous emancipation of harley quinn. it follows up from which was a complete mess and it is much better than its predecessor. —— follows up on suicide squad. margot robbie steps out on her own and at the beginning, she is broken up withjoker and she blows up the chemical plant in which they sealed their love. she is newly employed by a slimeball played by ewa n employed by a slimeball played by ewan mcgregor and she finds herself ina ewan mcgregor and she finds herself in a centre of a roller—coaster ride ofa in a centre of a roller—coaster ride of a plot which involves a stolen diamond, teenage the and a growing band of lethal women who have become targets. here is a clip. they're all here for me... ..aren't they?

no. they're not? no, they're not. do you know what that means? that means he's notjust after the kid any more, he's after all of us. he's sure as hell after me, ijust robbed him. you just betrayed him. you just killed his bff and you're dumb enough to be building a case against him. so, unless we all want to die very unpleasant deaths, we're going to have to work together. 0k. yeah, 0k. sure... yes! the best thing about this is, firstly, it does have a genuinely entertaining anarchic air. a p pa re ntly entertaining anarchic air. apparently when margot robbie was first talking about it, she said she wa nted first talking about it, she said she wanted it to be like an r—rated girl gang movie and that is the vibe. it is very physical and has a sense of

controlled chaos, which i really like. directed by independent movie director, kathryn yan, an edgy sensibility. the location, you can see here, it looks like a fairground ride in which there has been an explosion of a candy floss maker. it barrels along, it is funny and the characters are well drawn and well defined. —— cathy yan. it is easy to get this wrong. in other hands, this could have turned into batman and robin, which wasjust could have turned into batman and robin, which was just a dress could have turned into batman and robin, which wasjust a dress up pantomime mess of a movie, but this is actually as much fun watching the film as it is looking at the post and watching the trailer. i was really pleasantly surprised because i had gone in thinking, i hope this is good but i expect it won't be and it was. it was much but i had any right to expect. it is fun? it is good fun and it genuinely has a kind of sense of chaos at the heart of it, which is what you need for the character of harley quinn and they

pull that off rather well. unfortunately, the same cannot be said of dolittle. i felt that coming! the latest screen incarnation of doctor dolittle, he can talk to the animals. partly, robert downey dolittle, he can talk to the animals. partly, robert downeer now doing dolittle has decided to do the most bizarre welsh accent for the most bizarre welsh accent for the central character. apparently, he discovered some juridical pagan welsh figure upon whom he decided to base the character. it's not a welsh accent lights i've ever heard before. if you remember russell crowe's roving accent when he was doing robin hood, it makes that that let the most precise accent you've ever heard. makes that. it looks like the whole film has been redubbed, this is the better version. we also know they did three weeks of re—shoots after the first version of the film wasn't deemed to be funny enough, this is the version of the film that has had three weeks of making it funnier?! it just lies there

three weeks of making it funnier?! itjust lies there in the cinema like a dead fish. it is ugly, it is badly written, it is played by a cast of characters all of whom who should have far better things to do than be in this mess of a movie. somebody pointed out to me, they said unity rex harrison flopped when it first came out. but this isn't the rex harrison, isn't it? it is on course to, what is the phrase, "underperform" at the box office.|j do wish you would say what you really thought! shall we talk about parasite? we both loved it. immediately we have seen it and we need to be careful about what we say about it. no plot spoilers. the less you know about it, the better it is. a new movie by bong joon ho come up for several awards and we would have seen several awards and we would have seen it at the baftas and it will feature at the oscars. a tale of the park family, who live in this unbelievably angular, modern and classy bright lit built—in, high

above seoul south korea. and the otherfamily, the above seoul south korea. and the other family, the kims above seoul south korea. and the otherfamily, the kims living this hand to mouth existence in this semi—basement literally in the very bottom of the hill down which all the rubbish. they are weirdly a mirrored family but we first meet the family in the semi—basementjust attempting to get by. here's the clip.

so, they are living almost underground and the sun gets a job working in the house on the hill and the two families meet and these are mirror images meet. that is all you wa nt to mirror images meet. that is all you want to say about the plot. people have talked about it being like hitchcock but it is almost like shakespeare because it combines tragedy, mystery, metaphysics and drama. there are moments that have the melancholy heart—tugging power ofa the melancholy heart—tugging power of a ghost story and moments which are almost slapstick. yes. and moments which make you cast with the revelation of the plot twist. it is designed beautifully and the storytelling is so visual. even if you watch this without the subtitles, you could understand the story from the way in which the camera moves from different locations. the music, which really

brilliantly captures all these different shifting tones it starts with this sombre piano piece and this orchestral piece and then there isa this orchestral piece and then there is a weird bit which is correct vocals and a musical saw, these elements that should be fighting somehow come together in this perfectly harmonious... i've seen this four times! wow! every time i see it, i notice things that i haven't seen before and i love it. it is as near perfect as any film i've seen in the last decade, i want to see it again. bong joon ho has now prepared a black and white version which played at rotterdam and hopefully it will play here. the most important thing to say, go see it without reading or - any it without reading or hearing any more about it. don't let anybody spoil the plot or anybody say to you, there's this brilliant bit when... if they do, run away!|j you, there's this brilliant bit when... if they do, run away! i did not see that but coming that we want to talk about and i thought it was so to talk about and i thought it was so clever! did you like the film? i loved it. i'm not good with violence, there are a couple of

moments when i'm a bit like that, but on balance, i loved it and i thought it had masses to say about class on and and was beautifully shot. —— class and money. snowpiercer, obviously but come! memories, he is good at depicting stratified social groups. i also think the cast the board, an ensemble cast, this is what you need an award for best ensemble cast, you can't pick out individual performances. it is an ensemble cast and it is like watching a swiss watch work. i love this film, i love this film, it is fantastic and everybody should see it. best outcome another film you like as well? david copperfield. i am more keen than you are but the cast... i enjoyed it and great ensemble cast. fantastic. and a modern adaptation a classic text that found things in it that i hadn't seen in previous adaptations.

loved it. dvd is a great one to watch at home, terrific. judy. renee zellweger is storming the awards at the moment. i am slightly more ambivalent about this meant some people, but i think she looks like a dead cert lead contender at the oscars. she was at the baftas. my favourite part of this film is the fa ns favourite part of this film is the fans who meet her. and it's through their eyes that you actually see the magic ofjudy garland. i lovejudy garland and i was more convinced by the fans' reaction. were you? that's just me. i found it incredibly sad, beautiful and sad in equal measure. yeah. flawed. that is sad. but parasite is great! go and see parasite! it is a great film, see it. enjoy your cinema going, see you next time, goodbye.
