James' Friday film reviews

Post categories:

James King | 15:00 UK time, Friday, 27 February 2009

  • New In Town - Renee Z stars in this fish-out-of-water chick flick that's thinner than her arms. 2 stars
  • Gran Torino - Clint Eastwood is an OAP vigilante in this uneven mix of comedy and politics. 2 stars
  • The Class - French drama following an inner-city class over a year. Brilliantly low key and surprisingly gripping. 5 stars
  • The Unborn - Boring horror about a girl haunted by her dead twin. Or something. Seriously, you won't care. 1 star
  • The International - Clive Owen and Naomi Watts try to sort out the banking industry. Don't all rush at once. 3 stars

The ultimate boy crush from the 90s - Natalie Imbruglia pops in!

Edith Bowman | 14:15 UK time, Friday, 27 February 2009

"I'm all out of faith...this is how I feel". We all know the song and we all know Natalie Imbruglia. I wanted to be her and more so - I actually wanted to be in that video with that well fit bloke who then went onto be in Holby City. She's still as gorgeous and such a little pixie of a person, great fun to be around. She's a busy lady, listen back and hear what she is up to. Including maybe, could be, probably, definitely... working with Chris Martin!

The lovely Clive Owen graces the show with his coolness

Edith Bowman | 11:50 UK time, Friday, 27 February 2009

Clive Owen is someone I have watched and admired from afar for a while and it never really crossed my mind that he'd actually come on the show. When he did come in yesterday he was an absolute pleasure to have around. We had a really nice chat about his new film The International, and some of his other great work like Sin City and Shoot Em Up. Please come back anytime Clive, if you missed it have a listen. Great voice!

Ok I'll be honest with you, I wasn't particularly looking forward to interviewing Bill and Eddie, mostly because I was really nervous. I also didn't know if they got on, if I would get on with them and with the subject matter of the film being so serious, whether we could have a laugh. Holy camoly it was miles better than I could ever have imagined...
