Summary: Big Chill in Little London
Review: A word of mouth film. In turn sordid, fascinating, voyeuristic and sensational. The filmmakers take the wake theme and give it a new twist. From beyond the grave, Jude Law narrates and shows a film of his friends to his friends. They are shown as cowards, cheats, petty criminals, adulterers and ultimately murderers. The end is a shocker. The acting superb, in that "fly on the wall" documentary style. Ray Whinstone steals most of his scenes. Check him out in Sexy Beast and Final Orders.

Summary: a "wow, this could really happen...what if..." movie!
Review: if you have come to search for this movie here, then it is likely that someone has told you about it already. As it was only by chance that I came upon it and I am so glad that I did. A highly intelligent film, with a fantastic cast. Not only an entertaining couple of hours spent in front of the box, but a lasting, thought provoking story to go with it.

I would do the movie an injustice to try to do a synopsis of what the story is, and so I can only rave on about the experience I had whilst and after seeing it. I can't believe how few people have heard about it, and I just wish that it is easier to get ahold of copies!

This movie will leave you thinking "oh my gosh, that could really happen...what if....." I hope you do purchase it as you wont have any regrets.

Summary: Finger Sandwiches...
Review: Jude Law. Nuff said.

But really - what a bizarrely made film. Man dies, and leaves behind a film documentary that he secretly taped of all his friends in their real and private moments. It his wish that they all watch the film together at the funeral.

And then the fun & chaos begin...

How carefully Sadie, Jude's widow, sits there studying each face in the room as each friend is revealed in their naked and raw moments. As each ugly truth is pranced on the screen for all to see.

But Sadie never gives anything away.

Ray Winstone (SEXY BEAST) taught me a whole slew of new Cockney curses.

Summary: Underrated movie
Review: This is one of my favorite movies. A very thought-provoking film, hysterically funny and well done. I love the work of Dominic Anciano and Ray Burdis (including the British tv series "Operation Good Guys") and think they're very underrated. This move is excellent on several levels. #1 It's creative and something that hasn't been done before- the concept of what people would REALLY be like if we were secretly taped (not the MTV Real World cra.p of someone losing their temper -oooh!-, getting drunk or being caught after a one night stand) but someone on the toilet, knicking a few bob from a friend, talking about disabled people, hitting his girlfriend or sticking a pool cue up his behind on a dare from friends. It's about exposing hypocrisy. In all their work Burdis and Anciano have a real flare for truly realistic characters, dialogue and situations while still bringing in some fresh air. #2. The plot is great and you don't see what's coming in the end. It unfolds beautifully I think. B&A also use the same group of actors in their work which gives their stuff an edge I think. You feel like you're sitting around with a group of friends. Make more films you guys!!!!

Summary: amazing acting
Review: Watched in complete disbelief, how they can act like this - complete immersion in the characters with tonns of minute detail with such level of creativity. Ray Winstone and Jude Law are especially impressive.
