Alex B Cann film column - 16/04/26 Drama, detonation and delusion
How well do you really know someone? The Drama is best seen without spoilers, so I will avoid telling you too much, as I sadly discovered the big twist before I watched it. Robert Pattinson and Zendaya play a newly engaged couple whose relationship is put to the ultimate test during a game of “what’s the worst thing you’ve ever done?” One of them reveals something that shocks the other to the core and makes them question everything. Carefully crafted wedding speeches are deleted, friendships are rocked, and secrets threaten to spill out all over the shop.

Alex B Cann Column - 16/04/26
If you drive a petrol or diesel car, you'll have watched the prices creeping up with horror over recent weeks. Admittedly, the spectacle of Donald Trump's recent AI image, which he later claimed portrayed him as a doctor, was even more horrific. The orange President said "only the fake news could come up with that one" when it was suggested he sought to portray himself as a Christ-like figure. Honestly, it's satirists I feel sorry for. Late night sweary social media posts threatening to send countries back to the Stone Ages make me wince more than a James Corden DVD box set.
