Morvern Callar, excellent film, and book. I will watch almost anything with Samantha Morton.

Wow, interesting to see Gamorrah in there.

Eddie Marsen is unrecognisable in Happy-Go-Lucky, at least compared to his performance in Vera Drake! The anger looks genuine.

Aww….daisy chains are so much fun. Everybody walks away happy.

No, seriously. The premise of that film sounds intriguing and I love Samantha Morton. Morvern Callar, anyone?
