I have caught up with film director Rupert Goold in Central London about his latest movie Judy starring Renee Zellweger, the biographical story of one of the biggest entertainment legends in the world, Judy Garland. Judy bounces back and forth between Garland’s teenage years in Hollywood and the twilight of her career, when she took a strenuous job as a singer at a London nightclub in order to raise enough money to pay her debts and to reunite with her two younger children being cared for by her ex-husband Sid Luft back in the States. Goold explained to me how he has brought the story of Judy’s search for love and a way home to the big screen, making parallels to The Wizard of Oz, and why filmmaking makes him feel powerful. Judy lands in UK Cinemas from 4 October 2019.

Downton Abbey the movie is out in cinema from today and is a blast for all fans of classic British period dramas even or especially on the big screen. It provides hilarious almost ridiculous gags and enjoyable escapism away from all this Brexit nonsense. Don’t miss it! Here’s my short review in which I reveal why I liked it. In a few weeks’ time I will publish a full Downton Abbey behind the scenes special issue that will become a collectable issue among the fans of the show. Watch this space!
