what are you watching? we have dog, in which channing tatum co—stars with...a dog. we have old henry, which is a western. and here before starring the great andrea riseborough. i love dogs. am i going to love the film? do you like channing tatum? i am neutral. he stars and co—directs. there comes a point in every leading actor's life, i must co—star with a dog. richard gere and tom hanks have both done it. here, channing tatum is a ranger trying to get back into service. there is a military dog whose handler has now died. the military dog is years in service and has become very unpredictable. channing tatum's character wants to get back into service. he is told to take

the dog to the funeral, a cross—country thing, a road trip. after that, take the dog where it needs to go. tell them it will be rehabilitated, but that is not what is going to happen. so, the dog's behaviour is unpredictable. the film isn't. what do you think would happen if you put a likeable character a dog with problems in a car? do you think during a road trip they will fall into a will fall out? there will be good times and bad times and there will be a moment when they share a bath together. hello, nugget. come on and get in the nugget bath. good girl. come on! come on. you're 0k. i don't want to kill you. yeah. good girl. come on. yeah! no, no, no. come here. it's nice and warm.

yes, it is. four bath bombs. bath salts. should i call the spa for a spa appointment? you're certainly not the guy i thought i'd be in the tub with. but, hey... 0k. no. do not try this at home! you are so bothered by that. no! that is so wrong. i love my dog. it doesn't come in the bath with me, my dog. absolutely. not when i am in it. here is the thing. i really enjoyed it. i like channing tatum, i like dogs. i do not want to have a bath with one of them. what's nice is it hits every single bit you would expect it to hit

and it does so in a way that is charming. a lot of it is channing tatum talking to the dog. he is kind of talking to himself. he's kind of funny in the he does it. a lot of the humour is very mocking of machismo. it is a film in which there is a dog who's been traumatised and somehow underneath all that angry, aggressive exterior, perhaps there's something... you would have to work pretty hard to take against it. the funny thing was i laughed a lot harder than i thought i would. i went in thinking, it is a monday morning... i really enjoyed it. i loved quite loudly, embarrassingly loudly at one point. it was just me in the room. it was fun. if you can get over the problem of the dog in the bath... i would probably really enjoy it. i talk to my dog all the time. obviously that is completely normal. exactly. dogs are great, as are cats. yes. no time for that conversation. anyway, i will give that a go.

moving on, old henry. he lives on a farm, tim blake nelson. his son wants to learn about guns and shooting. henry doesn't want to talk about that at all, he is against it. they find a saddled horse, which leads them to a wounded man and a bag of them go back to the farm. as we know, never a good move. never a good move! next thing, bunch of people turning up claiming to be law men. but everyone is not exactly what they claim to be. this kind of starts out like unforgiven and then it turns into a history of violence and then it mutates into the final acts of straw dogs. it is not earth changing. but i rather liked it. tim blake nelson was terrific. i liked the melancholia which in the later stages turned into something altogether more dramatic. this was going to open in cinemas

in november of last year and we were all set to review it. at the very last moment, it got pulled. it is now coming to sky cinema and streaming on now from sunday. i wanted to flag it. we were set to reveal it as a cinema release and at the very last moment, it got pulled. it is well worth seeing. it is a little movie whose heart is in the right place. i liked it. interesting. here before is the third choice. i think this is great. i think it is a psychological chiller. it is not a horror movie. most importantly, it is not a horror movie. she plays a mother living with her husband and son. they lost a child in the past. a new couple moved in next door. she becomes fixated with the young daughter of the new couple, who seems to know things about their family and their lost child she cannot possibly know. is she coming apart or is something supernatural happening?

i'm going to show you a clip, a dream sequence which kind of catches the eeriness of the film. here we go. 0k. # lol like a circus clown, put away your circus frown. # ride on a roller—coaster upside down. # waltzing matilda, carry lots of kinkajou. # joey catch a kangaroo, hug you. # dandelion milk with silky and a sunny sky. # reach out and hitch a ride and float on by. # a long—standing gnome naming colours of the rainbow. # red. blue — and yellow, green, i love you... oo—ee. # popsicles, liquorice sticks. # oo—ee. urgh!

as we went into it, this is a dream sequence. i'm not entirely sure whether it is or not. that tune that's playing is by a band called free design. this is the debut feature from writer—director stacey gregg. it was a prizewinner at the galway film festival. when i was watching it, i was reminded of, there was a film in the 19705 called audrey rose. it was a supernatural thriller. in the case of this, you think is this a supernatural thriller, a psychological thriller, is it a story about somebody slowly descending into some kind of mental illness or is it something else? the best thing about it is it really keeps you guessing. it's got a great atmospheric score by adam janota bzowski. the thing i really liked

about it is you spend time watching, thinking, i do not know which genre we are in. i really like that. i think that can be quite intriguing. it holds your interest. it can be intriguing and unsettling. i found it both of those things. the best thing is the central character does not know what genre they are in either. you spend the whole film feeling this is mysterious. this is genuinely mysterious. i don't know how this is going to play out. she has lost a child, so she is going to be traumatised. andrea riseborough said she thought it was a study of grief. the press notes say it is a psychological thriller. a friend of mine said they thought it was an eerie ghost story. i don't think it is any of those single things. it is kind of all of them at the same time. it was taken actor of andrea riseborough�*s calibre to be able to hold that together and for it not to become annoying.

but i thought it was really good. i was really intrigued and genuinely wanted to know what the mystery was. i really liked it, i think you will like it. i will say this again. it is not a horror movie in anyway, shape orform. i'm definitely intrigued by it. best out this week? flee. it is up for best international feature at the oscars. andrea riseborough. it is in cinemas. i would advise people to see it wherever they can. there is a subtitled version and a dubbed version. you loved it, right? i loved it. i was walking round the nation telling everyone to watch it. —— i was walking round the news room telling everyone to watch it. it is animated and just 1.5 hours. i think it allows you to absorb the absolute horror of human trafficking and people traffickers. which is one of the main

themes, obviously. flee — you are having to flee your home country where you are happy and born and bred because it is too dangerous for you to live there. it's so powerful. it is a coming of age story and a coming out story. it is joyful and triumphant at the same time as being... there are sequences in it that are absolutely horrifying. the sequences in the cargo containers... if you can see it in a cinema, great, at home that is good. clever, inventive. really excellent. can i quickly mention the real charlie chaplin? it was made by the makers of notes on blindness. which i absolutely loved. if you are a chaplin aficionado, there may not be a whole lot of new stuff in here, but what there is is a very, very well—told story of somebody who cannot be tied down to one version. the essential thing is, when he designed a custom,

—— the essential thing is, when he designed the costume, it was big shoes, baggy trousers, tightjacket where big head, small hack, deliberate contradictions. the thing you get from this documentary is it is a contradictory character. there is the light side and the dark side. there is stuff about chaplin's personal life, which will horrify some people. i thought the documentary walked a very, very good line, being intriguing and involving. never turning its head away from the darker stuff. but really approaching a very, very difficult subject in two hours. in two hours, you cannot capture the real charlie chaplin but they have a very good go. excellent. thank you very much. have a good week. enjoy your cinema going and see you next time. goodbye. hello. expect further travel disruption as monday begins. storm franklin's very strong winds, particularly across western areas, with gusts up to 70 mph and for a time the met office amber warning in force in northern ireland, until 7am, some gusts along the north coast at 80 mph. elsewhere widely 50—60 mph

gusts, as we have seen an area of rain clearing south through england and wales by the end of the morning and then sunny spells and just the odd shower around and the strongest winds will slowly be easing on into the afternoon. it looks like by the end of the afternoon with temperatures like this, given a bit of sunshine, it won't feel too bad out there. a chilly start to monday night, cloud and outbreaks of rain just pushing east overnight and into tuesday morning, heavy rain bearing down on scotland and northern ireland, with the winds picking up again, although there will be gales developing in places. from tuesday onwards it is not going to be as windy as it has been, those winds not as severe, wet weather moving south on tuesday, clearing to sunshine, scattered wintry showers in the north. bye— bye!
