Nativity 2009

Starring: Martin Freeman

An improvised comedy based around a school nativity play.

For the first time, I ventured past 1989 for my Sunday morning movie. Just absolutely loved this. With Christmas just a week away, it had feelgood factor, was genuinely funny and all the kids were brilliant. Martin Freeman pitches it just right and all the supporting cast a delight.    10/10

Chained for life 1950

Starring: Violet & Daisy Hilton

One of two girl siamese twins is accused of murder.

Not much plot and a lot of time watching juggles, trick cyclists and rifle shooters. The fascinating thing here is the verdict. If one of a pair of Siamese twins is found guilty, could you imprison her and punish the innocent siamese twin. Fascinating thought.    4/10

The Front 1976

Starring: Woody Allen

For a small commission, a bookmaker puts his name to scripts by blacklisted writers.

What an interesting topic and the credits at the end made it more meaningful. I'm just not the greatest Woody Allen fan. He's the same in every movie, he just talks....a lot and you sitting there desperate for him to get to the point. One of his better films for me though, Zero Mostel was superb.    6/10
