Late Night with the Devil

Late Night with the Devil proves we secretly love when live TV goes wrong, watching the truth unfold and people squirm under pressure. Except this time, you’ll probably be the ones squirming. Enjoy the show.

The Zone of Interest

Glazer’s genius use of sound and imagery create a visceral world of pure evil.

The Iron Claw

The Iron Claw engages and thrills us with exciting wrestling sequences, yet we never really feel happy when the Erich brothers win, due to the enormous pressure they are under from both the sport and their father.

American Fiction

Cord Jefferson’s Debut Satire on Race

All of Us Strangers

All of Us Strangers gifts our screens with a love story that feels both nostalgic and haunting...From beginning to end, it captures a journey of loneliness, trauma, and healing, and the rawness of grief that strips characters down to their core.

The Holdovers is one of the funniest films I’ve seen in a long time that will make you cry tears of laughter and sadness.

The Book of Will

Ants and Grasshoppers - Film Review

"From the sun-beaten soil of Malawi, to the expansive and arid pastures of rural America, climate change continues to make its mark across the globe. However, this change hasn’t gone unnoticed, and Anita Chikaya, resident of a small Malawian village, understands that something must be done.

Latitude 2022

Latitude is set in a beautiful park tastefully enhanced with all manner of frills (and purple sheep). There is music, and lots of it, with main stages of mainstream acts complemented by the quirky and intriguing if you dig deep enough, while the manageable layout tempts you to poke about more than your aching feet appreciate. In short, despite the sometimes suffocating branding and sponsorship liveries, it’s a nice place to be.

Neck Of The Woods Festival

I really hope this festival returns next year. It was a joy to witness and it proves that there is not only the audience in Norfolk but there's talent too. See you next year, same time, same place.
