:00:00. > :00:00.Wayne Rooney becomes the highest-paid Premier League player
:00:00. > :00:21.in history. Now it is time for the Film Review.
:00:22. > :00:27.Hello and welcome to the Film Review. To take us through this
:00:28. > :01:03.weeks cinema releases, Jason Solomons. I have blood, sweat, sex
:01:04. > :01:04.and tears. Only Lovers Left Alive and vampires. Then we are on a
:01:05. > :01:04.summer holiday in France, a gay holiday. Then also Nymphomaniac. I
:01:05. > :01:05.am wondering what clips you are about to show. It is not easy. Only
:01:06. > :01:10.Lovers Left Alive, a vampire romance. Rarely have these films
:01:11. > :01:20.being treated in the elitist, lush way that didn't Jarvis, -- Jim
:01:21. > :01:24.Jarvis, where they live in eternal Twilight. I expect he is a bitterly
:01:25. > :01:34.vampire himself. He returns here with a film will stop these vampires
:01:35. > :01:45.Lipper ever. The vampires in question today -- live forever.
:01:46. > :01:56.Tilda Swinton plays a vampire. She visits her lover at the rock stars
:01:57. > :02:03.retreat. Talking of delicious, I have a surprise, an experiment. That
:02:04. > :02:18.does not work by the way. Yes, it does. I plugged it in. What is that?
:02:19. > :02:26.O negative. It is delicious. Blood on a stick. On a stick. Very
:02:27. > :02:36.refreshing, especially when you are in a hot spot. Checkmate! I have a
:02:37. > :02:42.problem with this. I have a number of problems with this. Tilda Swinton
:02:43. > :02:49.always seems to be listening to herself when she is acting. It is
:02:50. > :02:55.stylised and strange. There is no plot. I thought it was quite funny
:02:56. > :03:00.and stylish. I like the way, vampires these days do not bite
:03:01. > :03:07.people. They get their blood from hospitals and they sit it gently and
:03:08. > :03:14.go into opiate it ecstasy like heroin addicts. All that is well
:03:15. > :03:26.done. Then the film finishes. You have got to tell a story and bird
:03:27. > :03:32.just is not one. If you are infuriated, you will be irritated by
:03:33. > :03:41.the fact it does not take you anywhere. Where is the beef? Can you
:03:42. > :03:46.say that about a vampire movie? His sister turns up at one point. She
:03:47. > :03:53.seems to have fun. There is a nice line where she bites man and says,
:03:54. > :04:00.it tasted rather horrible. He said, he is a music industry executive. He
:04:01. > :04:06.is bound to taste bitter. I thought it could have been a fine movie with
:04:07. > :04:12.work on the script. They talk about literature. They talk about Kit
:04:13. > :04:19.Marlowe, a character played by John hurt. He talked about how he wrote
:04:20. > :04:24.Hamlet. Almost these vampires who have been aesthetic throughout the
:04:25. > :04:29.ages. It is about love. That is what keeps them alive, rather than
:04:30. > :04:46.blood. It does not deal with that. It is happy with its own strength of
:04:47. > :04:54.style. Stranger By The Lake, this one the best director prize. It is
:04:55. > :05:02.just as graphic as the one last year but it is a homosexual film. I have
:05:03. > :05:08.not seen this many genitalia ever, I think. It is a bit of a shock. If
:05:09. > :05:12.you are not used to that sort of think if you have tears to shed, it
:05:13. > :05:18.is a bit of a shock. If you are not used to that sort of think if you
:05:19. > :05:25.have tears to shed, shed what develops is a thriller. His cruising
:05:26. > :05:35.spot in the French countryside becomes a murder spot. Do be of
:05:36. > :05:43.Freddie Mercury lookalikes! A terrible moustache. It is quite
:05:44. > :05:52.poetic in the French manner. The lake looks great. And infect comes
:05:53. > :05:58.along. There is a homosexual society. They do exist in an idyll
:05:59. > :06:03.where sex and morality go out the window. There is a cross between
:06:04. > :06:09.desire and last and danger. I think it is really clever and very well
:06:10. > :06:13.done, very tense. If you can get over the fact that there are things
:06:14. > :06:21.here that you're not used to seeing stop I have one but I am not used to
:06:22. > :06:38.seeing them. The third one is Nymphomaniac. I wonder where you are
:06:39. > :06:42.going with this. Is controversial. The director is controversial. I'm
:06:43. > :06:46.not going to go into all the shenanigans that most of the films
:06:47. > :06:50.tend to be about putting a woman at the centre of the drama and through
:06:51. > :07:01.the ringer. That can be from breaking the waves, Mandalay did it.
:07:02. > :07:08.Nicole Kidman as well. Do you like his films? I do not know. He is
:07:09. > :07:12.trying to examine sexuality. It is an oddity of one girl called Jo and
:07:13. > :07:18.her blossoming sexuality from when she was a child to when she was
:07:19. > :07:26.about 50. Here is Stacy Martin on a train, having a bet about how many
:07:27. > :07:36.people she can sleep with. What'll I do? Smile, make contact. What if it
:07:37. > :07:44.does not work? You take them to another train and have sex with
:07:45. > :07:45.them. What if it is nasty? Then you just think of the bag of chocolate
:07:46. > :08:01.sweeties. You said he is an important artist.
:08:02. > :08:06.A lot of people find him a self-important artist. This is quite
:08:07. > :08:11.long. Is he anything but a provocative are? That is the
:08:12. > :08:17.question. I thought this film was tawdry and airless. I thought it was
:08:18. > :08:24.Dahl and poorly performed by everyone, even Charlotte
:08:25. > :08:27.Gainsborough. I think it tries to intellectualise what sex can be from
:08:28. > :08:33.a female point of view without understanding it at all. It looks
:08:34. > :08:37.like everyone was having sex but no ones looked like they were really
:08:38. > :08:41.having sex, well not the sex that I know and love. It was almost
:08:42. > :08:46.impossible to watch. I do not know why you would put yourself through
:08:47. > :08:57.it, why you would want to be in it, why you would want to make it. You
:08:58. > :09:15.have seen the film, Shame. That is intellectualise it. He talks about
:09:16. > :09:18.Bath. He is trying to intellectualise it. She has over
:09:19. > :09:24.experience the world. There is a point but I did not get it. There is
:09:25. > :09:31.a chance to see the two parts together. Next week comes out part
:09:32. > :09:44.one and then part two. The best of the week is the Wolf of Wall Street.
:09:45. > :09:49.I disagreed with Mark commode. I thought it was one of the best
:09:50. > :09:58.films. No one is going to vote for it. This is the film I want to see.
:09:59. > :10:03.I think Leonardo DiCaprio is brilliant. The way he addresses the
:10:04. > :10:10.camera. It is the best thing that Martin Scorsese has done since
:10:11. > :10:18.Casino. It is about American greed and corporate rot. This is about
:10:19. > :10:28.greed. It is about real addiction to power, last, access to debauchery.
:10:29. > :10:33.Your DVD is Captain Phillips. It is Tom Hanks at his best. Let's not
:10:34. > :10:42.forget the best supporting actor winner. Tom Hanks should really be
:10:43. > :10:53.the star. The guy really winning it is the Somalian guy. You begin to
:10:54. > :11:00.understand why they behave like they do. It was a white knuckle ride. You
:11:01. > :11:03.will find more film news and reviews on the website. That is it for this
:11:04. > :11:19.week. Thank you for watching and goodbye.
:11:20. > :11:25.A very good evening. The weekend is looking a little bit next. This
:11:26. > :11:26.evening and overnight the will have a few showers around. It will be
:11:27. > :11:27.relatively
