What is on this week? We have Robert Downey Jnr getting back into | :00:40. | :00:50. | |
:00:50. | :00:51. | ||
the iron suit for film'. We have a Jack Black Comedy studying check | :00:51. | :00:59. | |
back in 'Bernie'. We have 'The Look Of Love', Steve Coogan plays the | :00:59. | :01:06. | |
former king of Soho. Let's start with 'Ironman 3'. Have you seen | :01:06. | :01:14. | |
either of the other one's? At the beginning of iron man did you see | :01:15. | :01:22. | |
the Avengers assembled. At the end of the Avengers assemble, he saves | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
the world. A vortex goes through into another dimension. This has | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
now left to him with their dreams. This is not surprising. He is now | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
attempting to settle down with Gwyneth Paltrow, who was originally | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
the Secretary, she is his love interest. Out there in the world | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
there is an evil man who is threatening the world played by Ben | :01:47. | :01:57. | |
:01:57. | :01:58. | ||
Kingsley to whom he offers an ultimatum. His -- here is a holiday | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
greeting I wanted to send to the Mandarin. My name is Tony and I am | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
not afraid of you. I know you are a coward I have decided that you just | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
died. I will come and get the body. There is no politics, just good | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
old-fashioned revenge. There is no Pentagon, just you and me. Here is | :02:21. | :02:29. | |
my home address. 10880 Malibu point. I will leave the door unlocked. | :02:29. | :02:39. | |
:02:39. | :02:44. | ||
That is what you want? surprisingly, having issued the | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
ultimatum, they come looking for him. They find his house and he is | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
trying to hide and rebuild himself meanwhile, Gwyneth Paltrow is safe | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
but not really. And there is a search for the Mandarin. It is | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
directed by Shane Black who previously worked with Robert | :03:03. | :03:13. | |
:03:13. | :03:14. | ||
as a screenwriter. He had a line in very quotable often very rude one- | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
liners. He is a very sharp screenwriter. The thing with the | :03:20. | :03:27. | |
series is the central character is known for doing these very sharp | :03:27. | :03:34. | |
self- aggrandising one-liners. That is a marriage made in heaven. All | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
this stuff is to do with Robert Downey playing the character in | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
that way. You also have to have lot of special effects. The suit now | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
works under his command. Bits of the suit flying on to him as he | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
commands of. He has a range of other suits which work without | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
people inside them. As the drama progresses, we move towards a | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
Transformers type showdown which is the least interesting part of the | :04:02. | :04:09. | |
film. It also has a good villain in the part of Ben Kingsley. He shows | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
a very great sense of humour about his own reputation. It is one of | :04:15. | :04:22. | |
those films when you think you see him, what is that voice he is | :04:22. | :04:31. | |
doing? As far as to be a hero movies are concerned, it was one of | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
the better. It is messy and scrappy and too long, and for the finale | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
when it is robots hitting each other there is a lack of interest. | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
But the Ironman series has proven to be more interesting than any of | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
us expected. It is well directed and has a good script. And Robert | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
Downey Jnr it is good at doing that self-confident and sassy one liner | :04:56. | :05:02. | |
stop. This works well with this particular directive. Moving on to | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
'Bernie'. I am intrigued by the jack Black Thing. There is | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
something about him? In the case of Jack Black when he is properly | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
directed he is a very good actor. You have a story about a mortician | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
who befriends a lady played by Shirley Maclean who is not popular | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
with the community. They have become very close, almost unusually | :05:26. | :05:34. | |
close. Then his thoughts turn to murder. The interesting thing is, | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
when you watch a week Jack black movie you expect this some kind of | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
comedic turn. Jack Black during a larger than life, loud and | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
aggressive comedy. With this you get something different which is | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
home raining everything an playing a strangely up tight and precise | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
character and behind his smile, has an unexpected darkness lurking. | :05:58. | :06:06. | |
This film is based on a real-life case. It takes a lot of risk to | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
tell their story which is a more that black comedy about death. This | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
story is fictionalised but broad and comedic. That works and it | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
works because the director can get the best out of Jack Black. We have | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
seen too many Jack black films where he is the annoying Jack Black. | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
This is a strange and creepy can't quite get the measure of Jack Black. | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
That is a small movie but it works because of his performance. 'The | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
Look Of Love' has had a lot of publicity during the past weeks. It | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
is a biopic. It is not a standard biopic. That is the story of Paul | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
II was the king of Soho. He was the richest man in Britain and a huge | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
property magnate. He made his money with sexy shows and then became a | :07:03. | :07:13. | |
:07:13. | :07:14. | ||
property magnate. Would you like a seat at the table? �12,000 for you. | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
I tried to do a magazine in the 60s. We will persuade readers that by | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
buying the magazine they are buying into your world, the world of | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
cigars and exotic holidays and luxury cars. This will take the | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
world of Paul Raymond out to the nation. They will be lots of Gill's | :07:34. | :07:43. | |
beautifully photographed. We have as the face of the magazine, a hot | :07:43. | :07:50. | |
female car tester and she road tests the men of Europe. When | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
people were first talking about this, you thought Steve Coogan is | :07:55. | :08:02. | |
very clever, casting him as Paul Raymond is very clever. Because | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
there is a touch of Alan Partridge about him. That is a very | :08:08. | :08:16. | |
affectionate portrait. There is a tragic story of his daughter. One | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
of the problems of the film, and there is much to enjoy, Steve | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
Coogan's performance is very funny. It is clearly made with enthusiasm. | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
But it never gets below the skin of the central character. It seems to | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
be scared to delve into the seedier and dark side. If you have that | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
kind of tragic narrative arc as the central backbone, you do end up | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
wondering why the rest of the film was based on the surface. That is | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
not to say the surface is not good. There is a lot of wig wearing and | :08:54. | :09:02. | |
stick-on moustache wearing and fun period detail. I wanted more | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
investigation of the characters and more investigation of the livestock. | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
I interviewed Paul Raymond and he was not as funny as the Steve | :09:11. | :09:18. | |
Coogan character. But this plays more is a broad comedy. You said | :09:18. | :09:24. | |
biopic. It is not really a biopic that is like a cabaret act based on | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
the life of Paul Raymond, which is OK but sits slightly oddly with the | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
tragic story and the fact that it is such a controversial area, | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
nudity and the obscene Publications Act, you want more depth. You get a | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
lot of weeks and have moustaches and very broad Alan Partridge | :09:44. | :09:51. | |
humour but not much else. Is that not film of the week? The film I | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
really like at the moment is 'Love Is All you Need'. It is a Pierce | :09:56. | :10:05. | |
Brosnan movie. It has been described as mum and me without | :10:05. | :10:12. | |
songs as done by his then trooper who brought us films like anti- | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
Christ. This is a romantic comedy made with real people. If you took | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
the romantic, the structure and said this is fine, what if this is | :10:23. | :10:29. | |
real people with real problems. went in been very cynical having | :10:29. | :10:35. | |
seen the post and thought really? Became a out a convert to Pierce | :10:35. | :10:40. | |
Brosnan and thought it was my money without songs and it works really | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
well. You have sold it to me. If I do not want to go out, what about | :10:46. | :10:54. | |
DVDs? There is pitch perfect. This is a really funny snappy teen | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
comedy about the world of competitive aka palace singing. It | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
does not sound like the easiest sell, really funny and smart and a | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
good cast. Lots of bits and mean kill stop humour. Done with real | :11:09. | :11:17. |
