BFI has published its list:  www.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/polls/50-best-films-2023?utm_source=pocket-newtab-en-gb

Sadly I've only seen three, Rye Lane which I was surprised to see in the list, Oppenheimer, and number 1 in the list Killers of the Flower Moon.  I'm in a minority for the latter as I though it was too long and tedious. And I can name much longer films that I have enjoyed  such as Once Upon a Time in America tops four hours.  No The Old Oak.

Barbie is in there, I just couldn't go, sorry.  I used to see many more fringe films and foreign films when I first came to London being a regular at the Ritzy and the like when they were very much art house, having done similar when living near Oxford and also the Bluecoat when in Liverpool - doesn't have a cinema club any more.   Hats off to the Peckham Plex, and yes of course the Plcture House.  I should also try Crystal Palace

Views my good friends?

At the cinema I saw four films. I liked Oppenheimer and Napolean, also Living. TopGun Maverick - if it came out this year I can't remember - was also very good fun (at the cinema) but I shan't want to see it again at home in a hurry! Napoleon was my favourite and I hope to see a director's cut either at home or at the cinema, which is likely to be longer and, for me, even better.

    • I'm thinking of going to India at Christmas and it's been 18 years since I last visited. So long ago, I can hardly remember where I went (I was there for 8 weeks...). Has anyone been to the South recently? I'm thinking Kerala, as we fancy some beach action. 
    • If it's not bolted down it gets stolen, terrible. Some people have no respect for others property.  Hope you reported it to the Police and got a crime reference number, what did they say? 
    • Try pavement, this is London, not the US. The Mayor increased his proportion of council tax in 2025/26 to pay for "more" haha PC's but my understanding is they were cut not increased. A rouse by the Mayor to take more and give nothing in return.  Troubling and far too common here.  Just be careful where you get it out
    • Just saw one of them on lordship lane scanning the area on the sidewalks in a hood and mask on an e-bike.  I just pointed at them pretending that I was on the phone with the cops and he darted away.  Absolute scum. Hard problem to solve. I'm hopeful there are strategies in place to keep our community safe for this but it's troubling.
