It transcends one melody- or plot-line, and operates interchangeably on multiple staves [a chamber orchestra, playing https://t.co/xGjMejFNNi [here, @BerlinPhil under Rattle] ?] - or much better than a 3-stranded documentary !#BusHero - #UCFF nearly forgot having noted the tag. https://t.co/ITDlL8Dcux

Now compiled, on #UCFF, at 'Why to watch The Last Bus (2021) [and wish that many award-winners matched this film's manifold qualities !]' :https://t.co/LvH5pknktW https://t.co/OeFxw7ZX33 pic.twitter.com/FoROwIDn3A

As they say, Timothy Spall's a piece of all right !https://t.co/G7lCxmmnpJ

With my usu. Cottenham companion for monthly cinema in its community cafe, a film :
* That surpasses Nomadland (2020) for breadth, consistency, layering of image
* Where Spall's conviction holds us
* Full of humanity, film savvy, and examples of courage or inclusion that don't hide from life's realities, beauties and brutalities

* To knock back flaccid one-hit efforts at screenwriting such as in On Chesil Beach (2017)
* Whose cinematic vision embraces #lagrandebellezza
Peter Mullan could have engaged as Spall does (and superbly did in Hector* (2015)).

* Seen, with gratitude, at @Saffronscreen, where a Monday-night film's very often been a good recommendation to watch in its own right [or Spall in The Journey (2016) : https://t.co/VMKsaCRInO]. https://t.co/ITDlL8Dcux
Since #CamFF, Th'Agent's been back in cinema-spaces for :

* The Last Bus (2021) [@lastbusmovie / #BusHero]
* The French Dispatch (2021) [@french_dispatch] x2
* C'mon C'mon (2021) [@cmoncmonmovie] x2
And would happily re-visit that real / unreal world in which Spall plays !
More to come (if time permits)...
