screen shrapnel: based on the book ‘pish’
Screen Shrapnel get emotional this week – well one of us does anyway – as we discuss the films that get our tear glands a workin’.
We also discuss Precious: based on the novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire, a film that is tear inducing, less because of the plight of its eponymous protagonist and more because of its pretentious/stupid title – what next? Hamlet: based on the play ‘Hamlet’ by Bill Shakespeare, Leaving Las Vegas: based on the life of ‘Mel Gibson’ by Jack Daniels. Talking of everyone’s favourite antipodean bigot, Edge of Darkness sees the return of Mad Mel to the front of the camera after a seven year hiatus – what was Mel up to during those years, I wonder?
The show is also worth listening to for an occurrence as rare as a decent Vince Vaughn movie: Nick and Jamie agree!
Go on, have a listen; you’ll only be slightly disappointed
