W Poster

I’m going to see ‘W’ later on today - and next week’s show will included the patented Jett ‘n’ Gareth review…for now, however, it evokes an absent-minded desire to re-consider all the single-lettered films I’ve seen…Could only come up with five, so please post a comment if you’ve seen A through L, P, R, S, T, U, Y or Z…

M - Fritz Lang and Peter Lorre’s terrifying and ultimately humane treatment of murder and its consequences

O - Tim Blake Nelson’s re-working of ‘Othello’ in the modern American high school; probably the best of the recent batch of Shakespeare updates

Q - the best ever ancient dragon takes over urban metropolis story you could imagine

V - ok, I know it was a mini-series, but frightening enough tale of alien invasion to colonise my childhood nightmares…

X - and yes, that’s not really what the film was called, but it did look that way on the posters…Spike Lee’s (see episode 38) epic on the civil rights movement…
