I am a bit tired of various versions of The Road (is there a more influential recent piece of culture?) but I did really like Civil War so there’s life in the old dog yet.

Civil war is on our list. Isn’t that more of a reality tv show? Yes you’re bang on re The Road. Nothing comes close to the horror of that book or the film. The “zombie apocalypse” umbrella is thrown up too often eh.

Ha, no - it's another trek across an apocalyptic America with a kid in tow where everyone's an arsehole. It's really impressive though.

I like David Lynch’s take on that story, old man with mower (and trailer 😉) in tow where everyone’s nice.

Just 😉realised I put the wink in the wrong place. That’s me all over……

You know some films slip through your cultural fishing net? That’s one (I haven’t seen it)

You’re in for treat if you do. Wonderful film.
