Waiting for the Barbarians **** (2019, Mark Rylance, Johnny Depp, Robert Pattinson) – Movie Review
Mark Rylance is tremendous in a low-key, bright-burning performance as The Magistrate ruling benignly over an empire’s distant outpost, who is confronted by the arrival of evil torturing policeman Colonel Joll (Johnny Depp), in director Ciro […]

‘A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…’ ‘May the Force be with you.’ Star Wars blew like a breath of fresh air across cinema screens in 1977. Audiences were blown away being […]
