What will they find to say about using the Multiverse to hide from Richard Curtis films, Elektra’s Bumble profile and whether or not you can be ‘cancelled’ for closely studying Henry Cavill’s shoulders, and what does any of this have to do with a Two Ronnies sketch gone feral?

Buy A Book!

You can find much more about my love of the less critically lauded corners of cinema, from Michael Caine and Elvis Presley movies to creaky old sci-fi and ‘Video Nasties’, in my book Can’t Help Thinking About Me, a collection of columns and features with a personal twist. Can’t Help Thinking About Me is available in paperback here or from the Kindle Store here.

Alternately, if you’re just feeling generous, you can buy me a coffee here. There probably is a Baristapool amongst all of that lot, but even so it might well be advisable to avoid him.
