So, having never really been one for film, I’m now starting to go all filmnuts. Specifically, I’ve realised I want to see this, this, this, this, this and this; and that tomorrow, all things being equal, I’m going to see this;
and I guess also that I’m slightly dreading this. Oh, and over the last two weeks I’ve been to see this and I’ve also watched this. All of which makes me virtually contemporary and possibly even vaguely up-to-date, which can’t be right. Hmmm.

For those of you who can’t be bothered to click the links, the films in question and in order are:

• Tim Burton’s new Alice in Wonderland
• Plan B
• Dare
• The Man Who Loved Yngve
• Zombies of Mass Destruction
• The Big Gay Musical
• A Single Man
• The Sorcerer’s Apprentice “starring” Nicholas Cage*
• Precious: Based on the Novel “Push” by Sapphire
• Milk

* nb: Nicholas Cage makes me feel nauseous every time he appears on screen. I have no idea why. I’m sure he is a fine and nuanced actor at the peak of his professional powers. But I simply cannot stand him one teensy little bit. And that makes me sad, because I’m not a hater.
