:00:00. > :00:26.at 6:30pm. Now it is time for the film review.

:00:27. > :00:31.review on BBC News. To take us through the releases is Jason

:00:32. > :00:37.Solomons. First up we will be looking at mad men at the movies as

:00:38. > :00:47.Christina Hendricks plays a grieving mother in the US drama temp `` God's

:00:48. > :00:52.Pocket. Then we will be looking at Patagonia through the eyes of a

:00:53. > :00:56.12`year`old girl. Who is the girl taking an unhealthy interest in her

:00:57. > :01:01.health? And finally the mighty Gerard Depardieu gives a mighty

:01:02. > :01:08.performance in the thinly veiled Dominic Strauss Kahn sex case in

:01:09. > :01:12.welcome to New York. The world 's best`known Belgian apparently, he

:01:13. > :01:18.has gone there to avoid certain tax problems. God's Pocket. It is a

:01:19. > :01:23.fictional place conjured up in a novel. I think it is opposed to be a

:01:24. > :01:27.working class corner of Philadelphia. You live there and you

:01:28. > :01:31.cannot leave, everyone is either a gangster or a drunk or both.

:01:32. > :01:37.Everyone keeps the secrets away from the police, it rules itself. It is

:01:38. > :01:41.well created by the director John Slattery, some people will know him

:01:42. > :01:46.from madmen in which he plays Roger Sterling, his secretary is played by

:01:47. > :01:50.Christina Hendricks who here gives her best performance so far in a

:01:51. > :01:54.major movie. Here she plays a grieving mother who suspects that

:01:55. > :01:57.the death of her son in a workplace was something else other than what

:01:58. > :02:05.has in reported `` has been. What I has in reported `` has been. What I

:02:06. > :02:08.did is nothing to do with you, you have to make sure everything is all

:02:09. > :02:17.right Saturday and then you get your money. Johnny, John. Don't look at

:02:18. > :02:26.me like that, Jack. What are you talking about? Don't look at me like

:02:27. > :02:33.that. You get a flavour that that it is very brown and orange. It is,

:02:34. > :02:38.lots of interiors. Eddie Marsden, a British actor, playing an

:02:39. > :02:42.undertaker. It becomes a bit farcical. Philip Seymour Hoffman in

:02:43. > :02:47.one of his final performance, a lot of his final films, all claiming

:02:48. > :02:52.they were his last. There is not a power law of death that hangs over

:02:53. > :02:59.it, but you have too enjoyed it. `` there is not a sense of death.

:03:00. > :03:05.Richard Jenkins plays a journalist. He is drunk at the bar and manages

:03:06. > :03:10.to sleep with everyone because he is a local celebrity. I am not sure the

:03:11. > :03:14.film builds up entirely satisfactory to all sorts of things, but there is

:03:15. > :03:19.a very great atmosphere that pervades, I could not take my eyes

:03:20. > :03:23.off it. Christina Hendricks is fantastic. It is Elmore Leonard

:03:24. > :03:28.territory, scuzzy people would not very nice lives who do not very nice

:03:29. > :03:37.things. A lot of meat in the fridge rated trucks. A bit of Rocky. They

:03:38. > :03:44.are low lives, but I did enjoy it. It is US indie at its best. The film

:03:45. > :03:50.that really intrigues me is the next choice which is Wakolda. It is an

:03:51. > :03:57.absolutely special film. It has lived on in my nightmares ever since

:03:58. > :04:02.I saw it. It is through the eyes of a 12`year`old girl. A German man

:04:03. > :04:08.with an evil moustache takes interest in her. He says he can help

:04:09. > :04:12.out with growth hormones. Who is this man? Why does he speak German,

:04:13. > :04:19.why are there so many German`speaking people in this

:04:20. > :04:25.neighbourhood? It is a true almost story, a mix of fact and fiction,

:04:26. > :04:30.what happened in the 1960s when many fugitives from Nazi Germany were

:04:31. > :04:35.helped through South America. I do not want to give anything away, who

:04:36. > :04:40.this man might be, but it becomes quite obvious and Mossad are quite

:04:41. > :04:46.interested in him. There are just enough clues and when you open up

:04:47. > :04:51.this man's notebooks, there is horror inside. You have not given it

:04:52. > :04:57.away entirely, but this is about 15 years after the war. The Nazis were

:04:58. > :05:05.not all decrypted men then, some of them were still in their prime. ``

:05:06. > :05:09.decrepit. The ideology was not dead either, especially in

:05:10. > :05:14.German`speaking Patagonia. It looks like the Black Forest, mountains and

:05:15. > :05:20.chalets, Eichmann has recently been caught in the manhunt. He has been

:05:21. > :05:25.taken back to Israel, plenty of Nazis on the run at that time. I

:05:26. > :05:29.thought this was terrific, it robs with threat and mystery. It is

:05:30. > :05:34.confusing, seeing it through the eyes of a 12`year`old girl who has

:05:35. > :05:42.no idea. It is not the boys from Brazil. It is not that, there is a

:05:43. > :05:48.bit of that in there. I thought it was very exciting. It is about

:05:49. > :05:52.confusion and agenda. Welcome to New York, starring Gerard Depardieu who

:05:53. > :05:57.is not entirely popular in France because of his decision to claim

:05:58. > :06:01.Belgian citizenship. He is not, but wherever he lives or goes, he is one

:06:02. > :06:07.of the finest actors of the last 40 years, 170 odd movies. When he came

:06:08. > :06:13.on the scene in the 1970s, he was this huge, life force that ran

:06:14. > :06:17.through all these things. He is back on that sort of form here, playing a

:06:18. > :06:29.thinly veiled version of Dominic Strauss Kahn, the head of the World

:06:30. > :06:31.Bank. The film starts with a disclaimer saying none of this is

:06:32. > :06:34.true, but it may remind you of a case that took over world headlines.

:06:35. > :06:38.There are moments when they drop stock footage in from the trial. The

:06:39. > :06:43.first half of this film, the first half hour, it is an all night long

:06:44. > :06:54.Porgy, that is quite as relating and sexy and then it becomes

:06:55. > :07:06.dehumanising and empty. `` or grams `` sex party. What are you doing?

:07:07. > :07:14.What are you doing? I am putting you under arrest for the moment sir. I

:07:15. > :07:19.am Detective Sergeant David from the police department. You will be here

:07:20. > :07:25.until the NYPD comes, they want to talk to you. This is an fair and

:07:26. > :07:37.unnecessary. It is very necessary. Can I use your bathroom first remark

:07:38. > :07:47.`` can I use your bathroom? I have diplomatic immunity. Can you prove

:07:48. > :07:55.that? It is on my passport. It was not on the passport that he showed

:07:56. > :08:00.us. In another passport. I want you to call the French consulate. When

:08:01. > :08:07.NYPD arrives, they will take you and when you get the chance to call, you

:08:08. > :08:12.can call them. Can you take off the handcuffs, they hurt me. They are

:08:13. > :08:23.not built for comfort, sir. The arrogance of power. LAUGHTER

:08:24. > :08:27.It is the arrogance of power. I mention the sex scenes where he is

:08:28. > :08:31.wasting champagne, he is suddenly clapped into this system again where

:08:32. > :08:39.he is degraded and debased and he does not understand it at all.

:08:40. > :08:45.Totally unrepentant. Do you know who I am? They do know who he is. It is

:08:46. > :08:50.about the arrogance of power, human foibles, wealth, degrading

:08:51. > :08:57.behaviour, disgusting behaviour. It is all in there, it is directed by

:08:58. > :09:04.the man who did the driller killer and the fable of New York, it is

:09:05. > :09:08.kind of odious. We could not possibly show him letting it all

:09:09. > :09:14.hang out, there is a lot of it, he is a man landslide when he is

:09:15. > :09:19.undressed. He gets undressed to be frisked and searched as well. It is

:09:20. > :09:26.very well disguised. Three cracking films. We had a quiet period with

:09:27. > :09:44.the World Cup, now some good stuff. Do you really like this film?

:09:45. > :09:50.Inbetweeners two. It has already been out. It has broken box office

:09:51. > :09:56.records for the biggest UK comedy to open at UK box office. It is funny.

:09:57. > :10:04.It is a guilty pleasure, there are to jokes, banter. It is about mates

:10:05. > :10:12.growing up. `` cc jokes. We have nailed it here. All the gross out

:10:13. > :10:16.comedy is, it is actually really sweet. The four of them played

:10:17. > :10:22.really well together. There are some comedy genius moments, one in a

:10:23. > :10:26.water park I will never forget. I can just imagine, I have not seen

:10:27. > :10:39.they have 20 B in between. I these franchise? There is the point

:10:40. > :10:43.guys are 28, 30. We will not get them going into college. I suspect

:10:44. > :10:48.the box office figures may persuade them back in. It sounds terrific

:10:49. > :10:50.first summer evening. The DVD is the double, I have some friends who

:10:51. > :10:58.hated it, others loved it. Jesse Eisenberg gives a fantastic

:10:59. > :11:05.performance. He plays his own double gang. One cannot get the photocopier

:11:06. > :11:12.to work and the other is brilliant. It is created by a character in the

:11:13. > :11:17.IT crowd. I like the retro world that he conjures. It is considered

:11:18. > :11:24.and artistic. It is impressive. People build it as a hilarious

:11:25. > :11:29.comedy, it is not that. It is quite tiring on the brain. You can see why

:11:30. > :11:35.people become irritated by it. The story is meant to be irritating. It

:11:36. > :11:39.is irritating, people trapped in their own world. Jesse Eisenberg is

:11:40. > :11:43.wonderful, you can always tell which one he is, even though they look

:11:44. > :11:48.exactly the same. The way the camera is placed, I thought it was very

:11:49. > :11:52.well directed. Thank you very much. A quick reminder before we go that

:11:53. > :12:01.you will find more films and reviews on all our previous shows
