prince andrew will give evidence under oath next month as part of the civil sex assault case against him. the prime minister names a new number 10 chief of staff — steve barclay — after the recent resignations over downing street parties. sportsday will be coming up shortly, but first on bbc news, it's time for the film review. hello and a very warm welcome to the film review on bbc news. i'mjane hill and mark kermode is with me, as ever. hello again, mark. and what have you been watching? well, this week we have the eyes of tammy faye withjessica chastain.

you've just seen it. i'm dying to know what you think of it. jackass forever — 20 years on, they're still doing it. and moonfall in which the moon...err...falls. laughs . well, that's the review. thank you forjoining us. laughs . so, the eyes of tammy faye. ok, so this is the story of televangelistsjim and tammy faye baker. if you're in america, you'd know who they are, but over here, maybe not. they're played byjessica chastain and andrew garfield. the film follows their rise to sort of money—spinning televangelism, preaching the prosperity doctrine, which is that god wants you to be successful. god wants his followers to be rich. so, obviously, there is hucksterism involved in this, and, indeed, jim baker did serve time. um, as for tammy faye, she broke ranks with the evangelical right by reaching out to people with hiv/aids in the early �*80s, which was seen by the evangelical right as completely beyond the pale

and, therefore, became something of an lgbtq icon. she's played in the film byjessica chastain who embraces the role entirely. here's a clip. 0k, do you want a little remover? oh, no. that's it. that will be all. they're permanently lined. 0h. and my eyes are permanently lined and my eyebrows - are permanently on so... there's not a whole lot you can do. my goodness. i didn't know. have you never done pictures without those eyelashes? no, no, and i neverwill, - because that's my trademark and, you know, if i take thati away, then it's not me. and no—one's going to want to look at me with my trademark, - so i hold onto that. even if we soften them up and kept... no, no, you can do anything - you want, but my eyelashes stay right where they are. that's really you. mmm. yeah, this is who i am.

now, you can see from that, i mean, it's an extraordinary performance of extraordinary personality. i mean, the nails, the eyes... everything about them. a credit to a lot of make—up artists on this film. apparently she spent several hours in make—up every day, because there's also prosthetics work. the way thatjessica chastain described it, she said it gave her a long runway every day to build up to the performance, because it's a big performance. the story is really fascinating, not least because if you don't know it already, the fact that she went from being somebody — televangelists generally come from the evangelical religious right, which we all know a lot more about in the more recent years, but her embracing of people with hiv/aids and her becoming an lgbtq icon is really not what you would've expected. i think her performance is great. i think the rest of the movie isn't as good as her performance.

i think the movie itself — i mean, the story is really mind—boggling. the film itself, it felt a bit televisual, and maybe there's a kind of thing going, because obviously, i mean, it's based on a documentary, and in a way, it's kind of — nothing can match up to the fact, you know, fiction has a hard job of keeping up with fact. and maybe there is a point being made that because it's about televangelism, that it being televisual kind of makes sense? i thought she was great, i thought the film was ok. what did you think? i thought she was fantastic and i spent — it's interesting you talk about documentaries, because i spent most of the film thinking, "god, this would make a fantastic documentary" and then came out and read a bit more and discovered there had indeed been a documentary! and i suppose that's where you're right to say it's televisual because i thought, is this just because i'm a journalist or — i spent the whole thing thinking, well, i'd actually really like to see lots of archive footage and interviews with her kids and that's what i would really like to see now. it is a fascinating story, so it does hold your attention. oh, yeah, no, it really does.

and because it goes — like i said, if you don't know the story already, it goes in an arc, which is so unpredictable. and one of the things that she does is she gets herself a seat at the table, which is an all—male table, and describes — she literally gets a seat and brings it to the table, and jerry, he's, like, what's she doing?! and at that point, you really like her. yeah. you think, well, there's a woman who knows knows her own mind. so, there is really interesting tensions going on in that story, and i think her performance embodies it, but the film itself just felt oddly kind of slightly flat in comparison to her central role. i think that's true. i think it's an interesting story. she's great. oh, i'm not meant to say, really, you could wait till it's on telly. i'm not meant to say that, am i? it's a film, it's made for the big screen, but that's kind of how i felt. but actually, no, i kind of agree with you. i think it wouldn't lose anything on the small screen, because maybe the whole thing about televangelism, it being televisual,

maybe that is kind of the point. so, you know... but her performance is great and it is a stranger—than—fiction story. absolutely. so it does hold your attention, yeah. yes. so... jackass forever. now, this is a decade afterjackass sd, and 20 years after the tv series ended with the first feature film. so that was the end of it, and two decades later, they're still doing it, remnants of the old gang with some newer arrivals. the stunts as ever revolve around bodily functions with particular emphasis on �*downstairs'. so, underwaterfarts, there's a lot of that, there's vultures picking raw meat out of somebody�*s underpants. there'sjohnny knoxville getting knocked unconscious by a bull and being shot out of a cannon, a tribute to the flight of icarus. here's the thing — i actually rather enjoyed this. i thought it was quite sweet, and i haven't been a fan of jackass up until now. one of the things that's interesting about it is the film industry is so much about objectifying women, it is very interesting to see a film in which it is the male body that is completely on display and is utterly ridiculed and seen without any form of squeamishness, and there is something oddly

subversive about that. also, there is a scene — we do have a woman taking part in this — who gets stung on the lips by a scorpion as a scorpion botox thing, which you could see as a comment on the ludicrousness of a society in which — which embraces the idea of botox. there's a thing at the end which says "no animals were harmed." the same cannot be said of the cast who endure exploding toilets and... i thought it was kind of oddly sweet, which is not something i expected to say about jackass. well, from those pictures, i did not expect you to say the word �*sweet�* at all, so... it kind of is, though. 0k, 0k. ah. ..moonfall. i do like halle berry, so tell me more. well...this is the latest from roland emmerich who gave us independence day, day after tomorrow, 2012. patrick wilson and halle berry are astronauts in space, they get attacked by giant space gloop. they get down to earth, nobody believes them. ten years later, the moon is falling out of the sky and a conspiracy theorist says it's �*cause the moon is made of cheese or something on those lines and, therefore, the thing they have to do is to go

back into space with the conspiracy theorist who's never been in space before to save the world from being destroyed by a roland emmerich movie. here's a clip. you know, without electronics, we're going to need to make split—second calculations up there. plus, we lost our flight engineer. mm. no...no, no, no. guys, i'm not cleared for this. well, i'm the acting. director of nasa, so... ijust cleared you. congrats. yeah, but... i've got ibs — irritable bowel syndrome. i get motion sickness too. you said you always wanted to be an astronaut. i have debilitating anxiety. kc, if the moon really is what you think it is, we're gonna need a mega structurist. suit up. yes, that's right — it's tin hat conspiracy theory in space from the... i mean, this is,

and i say this with... this is the stupidest film i have ever seen, and i have seen a lot of films. laughs oh, that's going on the poster! it's kind of... 0k, shall we rip off gravity — do a bit of gravity, then we'll do a bit of lars von trier�*s melancholia, then we'll do a bit of event horizon, and then a bit of 2001, but the clear sort of inspiration behind this is sharknado 2. this is like if somebody gave the makers of sharknado 2 $160 million and said, "go knock yourself out." it's a film which as you watch, it's notjust that it defies the laws of gravity, it defies the laws of drama and everything else. the script appears to have been written by alexa, which somebody said, "alexa, write me a terrible movie script, all that has to happen is it has to have �*moonfall�* in it — the moon has to fall." i actually...i could feel my iq reducing. my iq's not very big at the beginning. by the end of it...it was... i mean, i actually really enjoyed it because it was like, ok, this has gone so far beyond stupid, it's like intergalactically dumb,

and the best thing about it is it's gotjokes in it, so there are bits that are meant to be funny and then bits that are just. . .stupidly funny. also, it's the kind of film where, which, in the middle of a shoot—out, a character turns to another character and goes, "they're shooting at us." and you go, "i know!" i can...that�*s what the banging noise is about! and then gravity gets inverted because the moon is near and the sea becomes the sky, and then the helicopter�*s underwater and it's like i can't decide which movie i want to make, i'lljust make all of them, i'lljust make all of the movies! and i... well, i'm booking my ticket. fantastic! here's the thing — if you see it, see it on the biggest, stupidest, loudest, dumbest screen possible. it is not a film to be watched in miniature. it is a film to be swept over like a wave of idiocy! well, i'm not often speechless, but i am now. so, um... you'lljust have to tell me what you think is best out, �*cause...

amulet. ahh, i haven't... this is not — it's not a horrorfilm, jen. you didn't go! you didn't do my homework. i didn't go. i didn't do my homework. romala garai's... i know, romala garai, we like her. directoral debut. herfirst — exactly, yeah. and it's got a great sort of, you know, gender politics subtext, and it's very much like films like relic, also owes a debt to andrzej zulawski's possession, which i know you also haven't seen, and i'm going to give you a dvd of it — that's a really strange movie. i have got so much homework. amulet is great, and i think you will like it. i think you will find stuff to enjoy in it. so, please...please go and see it. 0k, 0k. 0k. is there a dvd i can watch instead? yeah, encanto. it's nice! you know, people like encanto. encanto is still playing in cinemas and is still actually taking quite a good box office, it's now available on dvd. i imagine that the people who love it, who really, really love it will just watch it over and over and over again. great music, interesting animation. i thought the story was a little bit too muddled, but then again, this is a week in which moonfall happened. so, you know, suddenly it seems like an absolute brilliantly put

together work of logic. yeah, so, that's...please see amulet. please see amulet. 0k. whatever you do, it's a cracking week in so many ways. it is. thank you, mark. thanks for being very entertaining. thank you for being very entertaining. enjoy your cinema—going. make sure you watch that one on a big screen — that's our takeaway for this week. see you next time. bye— bye. hello and welcome to sportsday. back to back calcutta cup wins for scotland as the six nations gets off to a flying start. a mixed day for team gb in beijing — as katie 0merod made her long awaited 0lympic debut. and late heartbreak in the fa cup for non league kidderminster against west ham.

joe is at murrayfield where scotland recorded that victory over england today. in the six nations championship. as we were saying a little bit earlier in the programme. the expedition was in scotland in light of the performances against england at last year's tournament. let's hear from the man of the moment, the man who has masterminded that brilliant run from scotland of late. gregor townsend, scotland's head coach. it late. gregor townsend, scotland's head coach-— head coach. it means a lot to us, but it means _ head coach. it means a lot to us, but it means more _ head coach. it means a lot to us, but it means more for _ head coach. it means a lot to us, but it means more for our - head coach. it means a lot to us, | but it means more for our country and for the people here. we know how important this game is for scotland as a nation and we just wanted to focus on the game and deliver a winning performance but we know we will have to improve and we will have to improve if he wanted a trophy later on in this season.

apologies about the sound issues having on the programme this evening. and we are hoping to hear from joe who was at murrayfield for that game today. we can turn our attention to the opening match of the tournament which was in dublin. ireland got off to a flying start with an emphatic 29 points to seven victory over the defending champions wales in dublin. a real marker from ireland who last won the tournment back in 2018. nick parrot reports. wales are defending champions but they are farfrom wales are defending champions but they are far from favourites to retain their title. they are missing eight experienced players, including captain alun wynjones and sim showed. they werejust captain alun wynjones and sim showed. they were just two minutes on the clock when scoring was opened. despite dominating, ireland were struggling to increase their lead withjohnny sexton missing two

penalties before finally
