Darkest Hour (PG) | Close-Up Film Review

January 11, 2018 James Bartlett Ben Mendelsohn, Darkest Hour, Gary Oldman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Lily James, Ronald Pickup, Stephen Dillane

It’s the early days of WWII, and Hitler’s forces are marching relentlessly across Europe with England in their sights – defeat could be weeks or even days away.

Baby Driver (15) | Home Ents Review

November 12, 2017 cf-webmaster1964 Ansel Elgort, Baby Driver, Eiza González, Jamie Fox, Jon Hamm, Lily James

Baby (Ansel Elgort) is the Baby Driver of the title. Two things define his life. His love of music, which he plays constantly through headphones to drown out the tinnitus he suffers from as the result of a childhood accident. And the other is his driving skills – this Baby can make a car dance and almost fly.
