This TimothΓ©e Chalamet thing is a great example of how things get taken out of context. This interview was from a month ago, and the comments about Opera and Ballet went unnoticed until someone clipped it missing off the first half of what he said, changing the meaning. And sure he worded it badly

A mildly niche reference, but I'm only programmed to think in scenes from Spaced, so it is very obviosly Mike's bomber:

The implication is that it is wildly unpopular with British audiences, and it isn’t even popular with the US audiences they are targeting.

I really enjoyed this episode, it talks about what I think is the best film I watched because of its place on in the Sight and Sound Top 100

I really enjoyed it. Not everything work for me, but there is so much that did it was fun.

Yeah there are some bits of fleshy squelching but the camera doesn’t seem to linger on them too much

It is on at the BFI IMAX which was great for a full sensory experience

Lyon? As in the renowned gastronomic capital of France with its World Heritage listed historic centre?

That Lyon?

I rather enjoyed this, big swings some of them miss, but it is rather fun overall, and of course Jessie Buckley is amazing

Family day out, great fun though the print didn’t hold up to well to being shown on the IMAX screen

Who knew Goodwood has Roman roots.

Thanks, like you say the headline really didn’t sound like a Sally Phillips kind of approach to life.

8/ If Trump cancelled all the liberation day tariffs and never mentioned import taxes again, everyone on earth would breathe a sigh of relief and would be perfectly happy to forget the whole thing ever happened.

I don't think the same is true of taking out Iran's leadership.

That’s not in a studio surely.

That must be the wide open red rock vistas of southern Utah

So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for:

- Who takes over;
- Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation;
- How to defend US bases in the region;
- Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and
- How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.

It’s weirdly how rarely you hear what it actually feels like to be a Dad.

This answer to β€˜who are you jealous of?’ from Bob Odenkirk had me blaming dust & onions.

This is not a reasoned political response. Labour has spent two years making all the voting groups who backed the Greens feel unwelcome and unheard, and now attacks them for daring to back someone else. They believe Labour isn’t listening and Starmer seems determined to prove them right

The Arrogant Elite now includes 'normal voters in Greater Manchester.'

The Hoary Handed Honest Downtrodden Folk of Albion still means 'millionaires with a regular national newspaper opinion column and/or GB News presenting slot'. Please update your files.

As the analysis starts of the Gorton and Denton result, I wanted to flag some aspects that my experience yesterday suggests are being over or under-played

(Caveats - I went to Longsight, Gorton and Denton town centres and spoke to as many people as I could, but it was mostly during the working day)
