Peter Jackson, no less, and a whole bunch of critics and filmmakers.

And the response has been amazing.

I mean, it's got really, really good responses.

And then the next morning, I had breakfast with Alan Jones, the good lady professor.

Her indoors had come on the Thursday.

So we had breakfast with Alan and Diego.

And then we got the hell out of Dodge.

So for me, it was kind of ideal because I was there.

in did an event which I love the film looked amazing I mean they've done an incredible restoration on it they've gone back to the camera negative they've done it to the template of the director's cut that we did with Ken in 2004 and it was it was really moving actually it was really really moving so I had a not terrible experience in Ken okay

I can't imagine another circumstance that would make me want to go back.

Well, I'm going to be reviewing- Yeah, it's not necessarily the same thing.

Not necessarily the same thing, and perhaps getting excited about Finding Emily, which is a new Manchester-based rom-com, Passenger, which is a road movie, horror movie, and Star Wars, Mandalorian, and Grogu, which, well, the title is self-explanatory.

Two animations in take two, Charlie, the wonder dog and Tom and Jerry forbidden compass.

And one of those two films is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

Wow.

Wow.

Well, Ed, thank you so much for that incredible piece of information.

So Finding Emily, which is a Manchester set rom-com from writer, and forgive me if I'm pronouncing this incorrectly, Rachel Hirons, I would say, or Hirons, and director Alicia McDonald.

So Angori Rice, who's been in loads of things, we loved Mare of Easttown and she was the daughter in Mare of Easttown.

So she's Emily.
