Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “I will admit I haven’t seen Whisper of the Heart yet (an oversight on my part), but I have seen The Cat ReturnsK, and I consider it a really strong film from Studio Ghibli.” Blaine says, “if you’ve already picked up these Doctor Who stories, particularly Dalek War, then go for What’s Up Doc? instead.”

  1. Last Remake of Beau Geste is an amazing movie. It’s a Marty Fedlman comedy which should be reason enough to watch it, but it also stars Michael York, Ann Margaret, Spike Milligan and many others.

    It also originated a lot of what are now very common tropes. I highly recommend it.
