Trying to find a film to watch and at the moment it's 'Brian and Charles.'
Should we? Or do you have something better?

Fiik how to watch (I went to the cinema) but Napoleon was good and One Life (story of Sir Nicholas Winton) actually made me cry was so good.

That's all I've got.

Edit: Killers of the flower moon also v good.

Miss Slave has a magic firestick...pretty much everything is available!

Edit..."One Life" sounds a good shout!

We watched "On our Doorstep" last night via an app called Curzon. A documentary about the Calais Jungle which also brought on a few tears.

We're just back from seeing One Life. Very moving story.

Random fact - Johnny Flynn, who plays the young Nicholas Winton, wrote the song for Dectorists.

So all of those 3 are highly watchable.

Brilliant stories, brilliant acting.

Brian and Charles is absolutely batsht crazy and has a slightly lame climax.

But it is funny and full of heart and is probably the most original film you will see.

As long as you can suspend disbelief and open your mind to the world of a child like naive genius then it is very well worth watching.

David Earl has been developing the Brian Gittins character for years (the original stand up iteration of the character "heavily influenced" Dan Renton Skinner's Angelos Epithemiou pre-Shooting Stars to give a picture of how long! but the two have since made up and work together now). He features in Ricky Gervais' After Life. You won't see a comedy character with a fuller back story or better able to express pathos.

Probably too late with the suggestion, but watch Triangle of Sadness next time you're looking. I think you'll like some of the plot twists.

This is another somewhat bizarre film that I'd recommend.

Also, in reply to the initial question, Brian and Charles is def worth watching.
