Seen a couple of articles here and their but doubt anyone's in a up roar, it's just the press seem to have it in for the movie so they find anything negative they can but I do think he shouldn't get a penny.

It does feel like they are just looking for things to be enraged about when it comes to this film. I also agree with your final point.

It's Gary Glitter's music, so why shouldn't he, his record company and cowriter make the money to which they are entitled? Who decides what crime means someone is deprived of their contractually obligated income?

Not actually about the film and more to do with one of Gary glitters song being used and chances he might gain from it.

You're right. This conversation is completely unrelated to this thread and should stop here.

Action in the North Atlantic (1943)

If ever a film lived up to it's name it's this stirring and occasionally flag waving epic about a convoy of international ships - being an American film it centres around the American vessel Seawitch - braving U-Boat Wolfpacks and the Luftwaffe in an attempt to get supplies to the Russian port of Murmansk.

Headlined by Humphrey Bogart and Raymond Massey, although this is as much about the rest of the crew of the merchant vessel as it is the officers, the film has great star power and electric performances all round. Due to it being made at war time, the film was actually totally produced on Warner Bros sound stages so it's a great credit to all that you'd never know.

Gripping from first to last and as authentic as can be, Action in the North Atlantic is a cracking black and white war film.

Direct Action (2004, Sidney J Furie)

Dolph and sundries in a Nu Image bloodbath. Recommended to those who believe in Godard's maxim that "a film is ... a girl and a gun"
Generic plot (somewhat Gauntlet - y cough), and cheap as chips, but you know what you are getting.


Men In Black International

Made me want to see the first film again, as i found the humour to be forced somewhat. One interesting death early on led me to beleive the film would be betterer than it eventually wasn't .

All Through the Night (1942)

A cracking war time set thriller which sees Broadway businessman / mobster Humphrey Bogart track down a nest of Fifth Columnists (Nazis to you and i) who plot to blow up the US Navy's newest and biggest battleship in New York harbour.

A film which grabs the attention from the get go and never loosens it's grip. Bogart is on cracking form as the reluctant hero and Kaaren Verne a great dame to kill for as 'usual suspects' Conrad Veidt and Peter Lorre lurk menacingly in the shadows. The dialogue is both fast and loose and very funny especially in the earlier scenes before suspense begins to boil and the tense action sequences kick in.

All Through the Night tends to get lost when Bogart's best films are mentioned but this is a terrific ride and should be better known.

And to think. It all started with a cheesecake.
