Film: Killers Of The Flower Moon

Every time a new film arrives in cinemas it can be an event of many differing descriptions, feelings and definitions. Although, seeing a new Martin Scorsese film released is an event that is in a category all of its own, and once again, one of the very greatest filmmakers to ever live has delivered something truly special.

And Then Come The Nightjars – Bea Roberts

Establishing shot: dusk over bleak countryside; in the distance, occasional headlights suggest a tentative road link to civilization—where are we? Why so remote? In fact, we are on a farm on the edge of Dartmoor, and the irascible Michael (David Fielder) is emptying a can of disinfectant over a pile of straw, then scrubbing the farm gate.

East Coast Open II

When I was told that 25% of the paintings on display in the Scarborough Art Gallery’s East Coast Open had sold, I was astonished. I don’t know why, since I had nothing to compare it with. Is that a percentage that could normally be expected? Did exhibitions elsewhere have similar success rates? Was there something exceptional about this set of paintings or art works?

The Draughtsman’s Contract

Is it really forty years since I first saw Peter Greenaway’s The Draughtsman’s Contract? I had little understanding of it then; would it be any clearer now?

From Rags To Riches - The Rug-maker’s Art
