Just a quick note to let you know that the wonderful guys over at The Film Cynics have put up yesterday’s show, featuring yours truly as a very honoured (but apparently none-too-humbled guest). It was a joy to work with the guys and an absolute pleasure to spend an hour just talking about random film stuff.
I like to voice my opinion...

I’m on the radio tonight, with the guys over at The Film Cynics. You can listen at 11:00pm GMT and 3:00pm PST at CFAX 1070. I’m really looking forward to it, and it’s a huge honour to be invited. Feel free to check it out.

This is a movie that ends with a rendition of the classic Bowie pop number Let’s Dance, because it couldn’t fit it anywhere in its linear narrative amid all the time-specific pop and rock tunes. The movie has quite a bit in common with that most financially successful of songs from the Thin White Duke. It’s light, it’s breezy and it’s catchy, with just a hint of some extra darkness that is rarely found among its light and fluff compatriots. It’s also the work of an intensely talented artist (and, indeed, artists) who probably should be doing more innovative and important work, but we almost can’t blame them because it’s so much fun. Almost.
Quite a board walk...
