Clayton's joins us with with baking, birthdays and Talking Heads; while also reviewing Stop Making Sense. So much to be excited about, all right here on your bFM Breakfast this morning.
No, not the song or the American entertainment, but the British TV show - Save Me. Coming recommended by Dr. Walls via the phonelines, with shades of Gone Girl and Broadchurch, to boot. Cripes.
Dr Wells made her presence in the studio through the phone lines this morning, but her unfortunate flu didn't stop her from reviewing Rick and Morty Season 3. Pickle Rick, a smarter Morty and animated farting, Season 3 has it all from the wacky Grandad - Grandson duo.
Based around the real-life farce that occurred shortly after the death of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin, Armando Iannucci's (Time Trumpet, The Thick of It, Veep) Death of Stalin bills itself as a 'comedy of terrors'. With an ensemble cast of comedy vets (Michael Palin, Steve Buscemi) and theatre wonders (Simon Russell Beale), Iannucci's film deflates rather dark passages of world history to show the sad, hilarious truths of how men act when confronted with a sudden power vacuum. Any good, Maria?
Dr. Maria Walls... Witch doctor Maria Walls? Who's a witch? 'I Am Not a Witch' is the film of Maria's fancy this week. And it's a winner! But spolier alert; Dr. Maria Walls is NOT a witch.
Clayton is with us, and what he lacks in baked goods this week, he makes up for in profound reviews of the glorious Happy End. But surely next time, right Clayton?
It's been all about film lately and now Maria is here giving Tom the run down on Faces Places (2017), a documentary about rural France and beautiful friendships. Kind of like the one forming between Maria and Tom this morning while they talk favourite movies. Aww.
Dr. Maria is in, Mikey is asking about birds starting with A... And of course, Kobi (2018), the warming story of a NZ based jewellery designer, made by his own daughter. Awww. What a way to warm up on this crisp morning.
Dr. Maria Walls is back this week, no cupcakes but don't let that disappoint you. Swooning over Monolo Blahnik inThe Boy Who Made Shoes for Lizards, Maria reckons he's darling. Talking fashion and film, what a fabulous morning.
