Liam Neeson, Lesley Manville and David Wilmot are the stars of Ordinary Love, the new  Lisa Barros D’Sa and Glenn Leyburn directed drama / romance about an everyday couple with a remarkable love.

A couple whose endearing devotion is clearly seen after a breast cancer diagnosis. One that sets them on a path to find the humour and grace to survive a year of adversity…

I’m ready to see this beautiful version of love and can’t wait to see Neeson in this non-action movie role.

Is this movie likely to make all single people feel more single than ever before? Absolutely! So let’s get ready to ‘suffer’ for this very promising piece of art.

one more thing… unsurprisingly perhaps, but I simply can’t see the the words ‘ordinary love’ and not instantly think of Sade’s beautiful classic, No Ordinary Love. You’re welcome.

Fo Cullen, Chloë Ní Dhúada, Matthew Sharpe, Vivien Monory, Stella McCusker, Desmond Edwards, Maggie Cronin, Melanie Clark Pullen, Geraldine McAlinden, Lalor Roddy, Esh Alladi and Amit Shah also star.

Ordinary Love Release Dates: December 6th, 2019 (UK); …2019 (US)…

Written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, Phantom Thread starring Daniel Day Lewis and  Lesley Manville is a drama set in the fashion world of 1950s London. Lewis plays a dress-maker commissioned to design for members of high society and the royal family…

I’d basically given up on the possibility of a new Daniel Day Lewis film. Especially  since he announced his retirement from acting earlier this summer. Clearly he must shot this movie before then because he doesn’t seem like the kind of man to announce something like retirement and not absolutely mean it.  I could of course be wrong. As for this trailer, I really like the way it builds into something I didn’t quite expect and I cant wait to savour every single second of the last Daniel Day Lewis performance.

Phantom Thread Release Dates: December 25th, 2017 (US); February 2nd, 2018 (UK)…

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Hampstead (2017)

Hampstead is the new drama set in Hampstead, London. A film that stars Diane Keaton, Brendan Gleeson and James Norton.

Directed by Joel Hopkins, it’s a story of unexpected love.

My curiosity about Hampstead is fuelled by the hope that it’s fun and funny in a way that’s reminiscent of  It’s Complicated (2009).

Additionally Hampstead, London is a beautiful area I’ve been to a number of times. Now I’m excited to experience it on film for what is likely the very first time.

Hampstead Release Dates: June 23rd, 2017 (UK)…
