Movies:

i'm not very good with films. i can fall asleep in the most exciting or horrifying bits, and usually completely forget what it was about until i watch it again - half way through it starts ringing bells! can't be arsed with a lot of cheese or pointless gunsplatter i.e. most american films. i like world cinema specially european and offbeat comedies, short films and character based films..all time favourites include the shining, y tu mama tambien, spirited away, koyaanisqatsi, shaun of the dead, the goonies, three colours redwhiteblue, delicatessen, withnail and i, amelie, human traffic, the cannonball run

Television:

i dont have one and i dont miss it!! but i can occasionally be persuaded to sit still and watch dvds from tv..if its funny intelligent surreal or beautiful i can justify the time spent watching stuff like spaced cyderdelic mighty boosh monkeydust black books life in the undergrowth green wing planet earth black books peep show nathan barley and all of chris morris's other creations...
