    Watched a cracking film earlier, based entirely on Beds recommendations. 

    A film called Zulu. Was very good.

    Did Michael Caine ever use that posh twatish accent ever again in the hundreds of films he made after that, Off It ?

    Must be a rhetorical question as I'm sure the answer is No ?

    Great little film.

    Have got to say I found it boring first time watching it in the cinema but now find myself enjoying it everytime it's on.

    Is there a film with a more 'all star' cast than The Longest Day?

    Hell or high water must have pushed longest day all the way

    It did . Any other day , Hell Or High Water would have been my recommendation but The Longest Day is the best war film ever made in my opinion.

    I've not seen Don't Look Up, but I saw this screenshot of Mark Rylance in it doing the rounds of twitter the other day, and now when I do watch it I'm going to be expecting him to say "Walking is brilliant" every 5 minutes.

    Even the one to avoid is too bad. 
    I watched Don’t Look Up a couple of nights ago. Nice parallels with modern America, in a humorous way.
