Rooney Mara is fantastic in this delicate, sun-soaked Western

Ever since I was a boy, I always wondered about voice-overs...

Film review: Wadjda

Every now and then, a film comes along that changes the world. Sometimes, you don't even realise it's doing it.

Yes, the line-up for the British Independent Film Awards has been announced. And Fish Tank and Moon are kicking independent butt. Andrea Arnold's incredible feature has got itself 8 nods, with Duncan Jones' Moon clocking in with 7.


Other noms of note go to Jane Campion for Bright Star, Armando Ianucci's In the Loop and Lone Scherfig's An Education. The awards take place on Sunday 6th December, hosted by James Nesbitt and judged by such talent as Liam Cunningham and Eddie Marsan. If you can pick between these brilliant Brits, you're a better man than me.
