releases is mark kermode. hi mark, what have you been watching? fascinating mix this week. we have the phantom of the open, the stranger—than—fiction story of the world's worst golfer. we have paris, 13th district, the story of love in the modern age. and master, a creepy chiller. something for everyone. so let's start with phantom of the open. the story of maurice flitcroft. did you know the story before before the film? because you'd just seen it, as well. i've just seen it, and that's one of the things that really holds your attention. ok, so here, played by mark rylance, he is a crane operator. he gets a colour tv, sees some professional golf on the television and thinks, "i could do that." and so, decides that he will apply for the open championship despite the fact that his experience in golf is next to nil. here's a clip. good stuff, innit?

he speaks latin what? "clothes of the gods." well, you only get the best, jim. i thought i wasjohn. john, yeah, john. good luck, john. those sandwiches look nice, jean. love, can you stop worrying about what you look like and finish filling in this form first? what does that mean, "handicap"? it must be me ailments, i suppose. oh, like your false teeth? lombargo, a touch of arthritis — should i put that down? aye, put that down. hello. all right, then. here you go, dad, get a load of that. what's that? money so you can practice on a proper golf course. . so, he applies — through a clerical error or a bit of a fudging, he manages to get into the qualifiers, where it's not

a plot spoiler to say that he doesn't do particularly well. and the really interesting thing — i think there's something very british about embracing the idea of failure as a glorious thing. because certainly, the way that mark rylance plays maurice flitcroft is that he's a wholly innocent character. he's somebody who believes — he keeps quoting oscar wilde, you know, "you're in the gutter but you're looking at the stars." well, why shouldn't i, why can't i? well, there's a very good reason, you haven't been practising since you were seven years old. whereas everybody he's crossed paths with, they have all been practising for that long. but i think the film works because it's charming in the way that the duke is charming, it's very funny. i did tear up a couple of times because sally hawkins is his incredibly supportive wife who just says, "look, follow your dreams, do whatever it is". also you saw briefly in that clip, the twins, who their dream is to be disco—dancing champions.

and the weirdest thing is you think, the author of the book on the subject beforehand, he must�*ve made this up, there's no way that can be true. and of course, all the best, weirdest details are all true. it's directed by craig roberts, who does a very good job of mixing the down—to—earth stuff with the kind of elements of fantasy. there's a couple of scenes, where he is gazing at the stars and he literally flies off into the stars like a musicalfantasia. did you like it, did you enjoy it? i laughed and cried. there we go! which is one of my favourite things in any piece of art or entertainment. "charming" is absolutely the word. i wasn't quite so sure about those fantasy bits, where he looks up at the stars, i think it lost me a little bit at that point. but it would say, don't read too much about it, go and see it because the story itself... and another thing happens and yourjaw is still on the ground. and you think, "no, no that can't have happened". and then, "no, he really did that"! it's remarkable. at the end of the film, there are little bits of actual news footage which you go,

no, this did happen and this that you think can't possibly have happened did happen. i also think its heart's the right place. there's a lovely moment later on in which he gives a speech about the things that are important to him. honestly, you'd have to have a heart of stone not to be moved by it. it's charming. i agree. some people might say it's "schmaltzy", but there's a lot in there about family and i liked that. and i like schmaltz — if it's done well, i like schmaltz and i like sentimentality. and like you, i like to laugh and i like to cry, and the film made me do both of these things. i really enjoyed it. so also paris 13th district, which is the new film byjacques audiard. the french title for this is les olympiad, which are the blocks in the 13th. this is an intertwining tale of love in the digital age. so it's inspired by short stories of american cartoonist adrian tomine. we have a science graduate living in an apartment that was owned by her grandmother, who is now in a care home, she's not going to visit her. we have a teacher who seems to be moving form one relationship to the next,

we have a 30—something—year—old woman who arrived from bordeaux to resume her studies, and then suddenly finds herself in the centre of a mobile phone powered scandal. we have a camgirl who becomes a strange and unexpected friend. the director described this as being the "flip side of my night at maud's. he said, "we now live in an age in which intimacy often precedes the conversations, rather than the other way around". the thing i liked about it is it's presented in black and white, it has a very kind of manhattan edge to it, that kind of romantic view of the environment. and also what's nice is, it doesn't present technology as necessarily bad. it's not the "oh, now we're are all very distant because we've got mobile phones and screens". actually, some of the most intimate scenes in the film are through computer screens, or through a telephone line. i thought that was interesting because it wasn'tjudgmental. one of the screenwriters on it is celine sciamma,

who made my favourite film of last year. i thought it was again, it was much more enjoyable than i expected it to be. partly because i'd read a couple of reviews that said it's flimsy, it's whimsical. yes, it is, but it's done very well, and i believed in the characters. i liked it, ithink you would like it, too. 0k. master, am i going to like this? it's not a horrorfilm, jane, it's an eerie chiller. there is a touch of jordan peele about this. it's the feature debut from mariama diallo. regina hall is the first black woman to be appointed master of a posh ivy league college in new england. she plays gail bishop. the ivy league college is very near to where the salem witch trials took place, and there's still people around who dress as if that's the period. it seems like a greatjob, but the school is haunted by the spectre of ghosts, of witches, and also of racism. a new pupil, jasmine, has been told stories that somebody threw themselves to the death out the window. meanwhile, a new college professor is under investigation for unfairly marking a paper. here's a clip.

i'm just worry about jasmine. yeah, i mean, who knows what she's gone through. | yes, everything else seems out of control. yeah, but that dispute could control whether or not i get tenure. - do not be dramatic, all right, you'll be fine... look, i've never seen them so close to town. let's go, we shouldn't be here. come on. so you see, creepy rather than horror film. here's the reason i think that you'll like it. likejordan peele's movies, it's using that kind of unsettling format to talk about something that's real and down—to—earth. it's talking about racism, it's talking about the way in which history is always with us. it's talking the way in which people

are kind of gaslighted into wondering whether what they're thinking isjust in their head, or whether they are actually in the middle of some strange conspiracy. i think the best thing about the film is, the audience spends a lot of it feeling the same way as the main characters. like, "hang on, what exactly is going on? i feel very unsettled, i feel very uneasy, i feel creeped out, but i'm not entirely sure why." and i think it does a very good job of creating that atmosphere of unease. and that's why i say — i know you're not a fan of horror films, but i know that you are a fan of films which are dramatically gripping and have substance, and have great performances and ideas. yes, yes. and i think this is a film full of ideas. and that's interesting, yeah. there aren'tjump scares — actually, there are a couple... it's not a horrorfilm, jane! it is a substantial eerie chiller, and i'd be very interested to know what you think of it. it's in select cinemas, but also on prime video. you can watch it at home, so it would be interesting to know what you think. okey—doke — best out?

i'm going for the batman. i've seen it twice — which is six hours, because its three hours long. i think robert patterson is pretty good. it's a vampiric role anyway, it's a boy dressed as a bat. of course, he rose to fame through the twilight movies, which i love! i will not hear any bad words about the twilight movies. i love the twilight movies, and i think he was great as a shiny vampire in the twilight movies. and here, he's very good as a troubled, sort of, emo goth vampire. i like the way the film looks, it has a very, kind of, textured feel to it. it's not perfect, but after the nolans, where do you go? and i think this goes in an interesting direction, and i think the central performances are pretty decent. yes, and i do want to get around to seeing it. and your dvd choice takes us back to the wonderful person you mentioned earlier. celina sciamma's petite maman, my favourite film of last year. 72 minutes long, absolutely perfect. it's so great! it's a fairy tale about these

two girls who meet. there's a kind of time—travelling, fairy tale thing going on. and it's just beautiful and mysterious and wonderful. i think it's one of those things that remind you that at its very best, cinema can be a transcendent, transformative experience. i actually think that you become a better person from watching petite maman. i think it's just — that moment with the pancakes. oh, yes, i mean, you are completely transported for 72 minutes. you just are, you're in another world. yeah, in another world, and absolutely bound up with it. it's heartbreaking and makes you laugh, it makes you cry. oh, it's just wonderful. beautifully made, yes. thank you very much. a real interesting mixed bag, lots to chew over. i'm glad you liked the golfing movie, it's really sweet. it's a remarkable story, myjaw is still on the ground. thank you very much. enjoy your cinema watching, whatever

you choose to see this week, and streaming, as well. thanks for being with us, see you next time, bye—bye. hello there. a chilly start to our saturday, a little bit of frost here and there, a few pockets of fog to clear. otherwise, there will be pretty much unbroken some for many. the difference is more of things, particularly strong and gusty in western and southern areas, but for most parts plenty of sunshine and also, because the breeze is coming off the north sea coast, a chilly north sea. temperatures around 10—11 c here. we might get 18 in the northwest of scotland, having had the warmest day of the year on friday so far at 17.5. that hangs around for part two of the weekend, so sunday dawns on a chilly note. for and fog around on

sunday morning and perhaps a little bit more cloud coming into the aisles of silly, northern ireland and later. also creaming in with a few showers to southeast. still plenty of fine weather.
