it's directed by sophie hyde, written by katy brand. let's do all the positives first. very funny and both of those performers are terrific and they are welljudge performances because it's a balance between the poignant and comedic and they get itjust right and it's like watching two performances at the top of their game. you go. "great." the film is about a subject which let's be honest, cinema in general and british cinema in particular is considered to be taboo. cinema worries about actually talking about intimacy. on the downside, it's somewhat stagey. it plays out as a series of chaptered encounters in the same hotel room, except for in the very end. and i can almost imagine it as being like a two—handed play. it's also performative. leo is playing a role because he's a giggilo, he's an escort, a sex worker, so he's playing the role but we are watching two very accomplished actors playing roles and i never quite forgot that that's what we are watching. if you compare this with a film like the mother, that had a much more convincing set of characters. i did really b

it's nice weather, but emma thompson is tremendous in good luck to you, leo grande directed by sophie hyde it's a two—hander about a 60—year—old woman waiting for a sex worker to come and give her her first, first—ever orgasm. can i say orgasm? i think ijust did. so that's what she's waiting for. it's very, very well done, beautifully acted. and i think she's up for a long haul of awards. i think it's one of her finest performances. and we're talking remains of the day we're talking the tall guy. she's tremendous in this. yes. 0h, interesting. sadly, the one i haven't been able to see yet. but... you'll love it. it's absolutely on my list. absolutely. and if you don't want to sit in a cinema in such beautiful weather, what else would you recommend for us? a reshoot in the cinema, and a 4k restoration and on video is... ah, both. two birds in one. well, definitely two birds and one stone, because it's the wings of desire by wim wenders'1987 cult classic about two angels who want to fall... one angel who falls in love with a trapeze artist and wants to become human so he can make contact wit

directed by australian sophie hyde and written by british comedian and scriptwriter katy brand, it wasimple hotel room, befitting an exploration of intimacy. this is such a unique film. why do you think we haven't seen anything like it before? nobody�*s interested in middle—aged women having sex. nobody�*s interested in female pleasure. we don't talk really about sex in the way that this film talks about sex because we're not very honest about it. and my industry often portrays it in ways that i'm sure feel completely foreign to most people. there are nuns out there with more sexual experience than me. it's embarrassing. do you want me to brush my teeth? at a time when the industry is still going through the reverberations of the metoo movement, including admissions of how uncomfortable some actresses have felt on set during the filming of sex scenes, could this movie address the traditional hollywood practice of using perfect bodies on screen? thompson doesn't think it's benefited the audience. there's a lot of that difficulty for men and women, probably. i mean, women obviously at th
