This film is a real 80's delight. I rediscovered it while watching it with my kids. It's so much of it's time. There's an innocence in the animation and story. Nobody questions why a big creepy giant would want to hang around with a little girl. Which is is great!! The times we live in are so paranoid this film makes us remember why we all need a granddad figure of out own.
David Jason's performance as the BFG is remarkable. At first I didn't realise it was him. I think he gives it that extra something that really shines through.
The beginning was really Richard William's like, with the cloaked giant running through the streets. It makes me realise how good Cosgrove Hall could be. It would be fun to check out more of their stuff again. Especaily Danger Mouse.

Caught this the other day and thought it was amazing. I loved the the way there two stories. Firstly being the stones writing sympathy for the devil, which was a revelation to watch. Throughout the film the style of the song changes, transforms mutating into what we know. That in its self was compelling.
The second story follows different characters as they explore different debates on race, gender and media. What stuck me with it was the way it captured the period. A lot of the film's style and attitude is very sixties. Just look at the cars in the wrecking lot, everyone a vision of 50's colours arranged in a crazed mass on the banks of the Thames. It's hard to visualise a world like that now.
This film is well worth a watch.

Orders of Love is touching. It's a documentary which revolves around a new father's quest to find the black sheep in his family. The Uncle who nobody wants to talk about - because he was crazy. The father is driven to find the truth so he can repair the family history so his son wont face any future trauma.
The film is funny, touching and warm. Jes also uses animation to illustrate the family history. its clear that this is a low budget film but it doesn't suffer for that. The human story shines through like a bright light.
A good film that makes you look at your own family relationships in a new light.
