there's plenty of oscar buzz, too, around greta gerwig's little women.n. who is that guy? mr blanc is a private investigator of great renown. rian johnson's knives 0ut is a possible contender, too, using an all—star cast to breathe new life into an old agatha christie style whodunit. i suspect foul play. where's jason? and jordan peele's us is an outside contender with its mix of horror and social satire. who knows how these movies will fare with 0scar voters? as always with awards, the one that you can be certain of is that the results will probably make you want to scream as much as cheer. i'll leave you with a taste of something that's become a modern christmas tradition — a new star wars movie, still packing out cinemas for 42 years after a new hope first landed, reminding us that, when it comes to the movies, some things remain the same. we spotted the fugitives. 0h, they fly now! they fly now? they fly now! hello there. it is starting cold with a little bit frost for christmas day. there'll be no snow unfortunately, but it should be dry thanks to t
