In Frida, Salma Hayek gives an extraordinary performance in the compelling story of the Mexican painter who survived a horrific bus crash to become the most famous artist her country produced. Worth seeing just to go star spotting … hey – that’s Edward Norton as Rockafeller … [also not with the woman who was behind me last night, who talked all the way through and then complained bitterly when I was leaving because I was blocking her view of the credits …]
'The Spirit Room’ – Michelle Branch amounts to being an unofficial soundtrack to ‘Dawson’s Creek’. You’ll know kind of music – which came first – the plotline or the song lyrics? Tracks mostly written by her, some bloke and the more talented but sadly forgotten Abra Moore.
‘Father Time’ by former Emmerdale storyliner Lance Parkin features an amneasiatic Eighth Doctor Who stranded on Earth and fighting off alien invaders in the midst of Thatcher’s Britain. Spot on pop culture references include the use of a Phil Collins song to point up the fact his daughter, also a timelord, also has two hearts.
