With a joint film of the week reviewed in this week’s Take 2, it’s essential listening. Bonus films in today’s episode are ‘Along Came Love’, a poignant postwar relationship drama set in Brittany, and ‘The Ballad of Wallis Island’, the big-hearted folky musical praised by romcom king Richard Curtis, starring Carey Mulligan, Tim Key and Tom Basden.
Mark’s also reviewing ‘The World Will Tremble’ this week, which tells the vital and powerful true story of an escape attempt from a Holocaust extermination camp. It also happens to feature one of our top production team, who might have to leave us soon to go and win some Oscars (and who honestly did not write this). Plus, best walking films in One Frame Back, inspired by ‘The Salt Path’, top correspondence from you on all things topless-indestructible-action man Tom Cruise—and we’re sorting out your weekend screening schedule as per with the Weekend Watchlist and Notlist.
