Hallam Foe

Hallam Foe

I just got back from another screening of Hallam Foe. It was even better the second time ’round.

Please. Please please please please. PLEEEEEAAASE go see Hallam Foe in the cinema. It really is just one of the most moving and beautiful films I’ve seen in a very long time. And more perfectly British (Scottish) films like it need to continue to be made. Also, Jamie Bell is just remarkable in the film. Please, everyone, more Jamie Bell in the world. And if Sophia Myles (Dr. Who- ‘The Girl in the Fireplace‘) isn’t made a huge star after the film then the Universe is far more fucked up than I believe it to be.

I can’t wait to see the video from the evening… Colin, will you edit yourself into it? ;)

Hallam Foe

Hallam Foe

I, along with Hugh, Euan, Annie, Tom, Lloyd, Suw and Kevin, Adriana and about 30 others, saw a very early cut of David Mackenzie’s film, Hallam Foe, tonight.

One word:

Brilliant.

I will pay to see this film AND buy it on DVD… and I’m not just pimping for Hugh here. ;) It was genuinely excellent.

I’m not going to tell the story or review it now (it’s 1am and I’m converting MP4s into MOVs in bed…ugh), but this is a film that you will most certainly hear more about in the coming months.

Go read the film’s blog and have a look at what the other bloggers are saying about it… Hey, even Tom said he loved the film despite the fact that it didn’t have explosions and spaceships… :) …so, you know it’s got to be good.

  • The BNP's Membership List -

    In case you've not already seen, the British Nationalist Party's membership list (*edited to add link to new source*) has been leaked online. For non-Brits, this is a White Supremacist "political" party in the UK. Everyone on that list stands for everything I stand against.

  • Brian Didn't Get Dawkins' Job -

    Phew! I can finally say something about this. Brian was up for Dawkins' job, down to the final three (or was it four?!), but didn't get it. And the winner is...

  • Brian Cox For Dawkins' Job -

    A couple people in the comments have said they think Brian should take over from Richard Dawkins when he retires this year. If you're on Facebook, you can join the Brian Cox For Dawkins' Job group. Not started be me incidentally.

  • Observer Article -

    Honestly, this isn't a blog just about Brian. That would be really weird... but... indulge me just a bit longer.

    Some of you may have seen the article about Brian in the Observer today. Now, you guys are intelligent and realise that not everything you read in a newspaper is accurate. This was made absolutely clear to me this morning as I was sitting in my bathrobe, hair all over the place, barefoot, all coffee breath, unshowered and read, "he married his American wife, glamorous TV presenter Gia Milinovich, in secret." :-/

    Ah well...

  • Professor Brian Cox Gay? Answered -

    Questions I assume people want answered based on various searches.

    1. No, Brian is not gay. I'm his wife, not his beard. Amazing, eh?
    2. No, Brian has not had botox. :rollseyes: He's 40 years old and just has good skin.
    3. Yes, Brian was in D:Ream, but I wish the media would stop mentioning it. It's really boring now.
    4. No, Brian's not evil. He's really lovely actually. Literally, will not even kill a fly. I, however, take delight in destroying wasps and have been known to murder mice who came into my home.
    5. No, Brian does not have a belief in God or Gods.

  • Brian on 'Enough Rope' -

    Excellent interview with Brian by Andrew Denton on 'Enough Rope'. I'm not able to see video yet, but there's an mp3 of the whole interview and a transcript. w00t! for Star Wars toys!
