Alias Smith and Jones (1971)
This was great
I can remember in 1972 , crying when the telly went on the blink at 8.20 on Monday night , BBC 2 .Why ???? Cause asaj was on .Black and white at the time (or at least it was in our house ) - I was shattered .I blamed my Dad , I blamed my Mum - but nothing would make it come back on .How could I miss an episode ? I did that night but saw the repeats and saw the repeats ! What a brilliant series - I can't even remember after Pete died - I only remember him .That must be powerful - he must have had something special .I now have the boxset and am reliving 1971 - what a brilliant time .This is what TV series are all about .The USA have realised after 30 years how to command a TV show .Prisoner Break , Lost , Heroes, Journey Man - you all owe to ASAJ - they taught us about the people - not the setting .
One from the Heart (1981)
This ones from the heart !
Dreamy ! Sedate and defined ! I first watched this movie when I was on my own and it made me think of my girlfriend .It is so fantasy in a modern day setting that it cannot fail to enchant .I don't know if it is charming or stark but it does have realism in an unreal state .The story is simple but nevertheless believable .You know how they feel ! It is one of my favourites and it takes me away to a fantasy place - I have not taken drugs but I imagine that this is what is would be like .It is a fantasy world of warmth and seduction , bright and shiny coupled with building site realism and everyday feelings .You truly suspend realism and that is what films are supposed to be about .If you are looking to escape for a couple of hours , watch this
