COLUMN: News through tinted glasses

This is the first installment of a fortnightly column by Daniel Hendry, taking a light hearted glance through the news pages.

Well what a few weeks it has been in that crazy world that is celebrity. There have been more scandals than in a Boris Johnson trip to Liverpool! The common denominator behind many of the scandals has been that of lewd extra-marital affairs.

Note to new team members:

A few of the email addresses collected at the re-freshers’ bazaar were very unclear and I have been unsuccessful in deciphering them.

If you have yet to receive an email from me, then please mail info@thegown.org.uk

REVIEW: Jedward – Under Pressure (Ice Ice Baby)

Louie Walsh’s diabolically awful twosome have launched their attack on the music industry before the spotlight and novelty fades. It is more likely that the terribly tacky twins will spend their golden years perfoming at Butlin rather than topping charts, despite their newly announced UK Tour.

FEATURE: Belfast4Haiti

When a magnitude 7.0 earthquake hit Haiti on 12th January 2010, a country already on its knees became hell on earth. Belfast musicians Anto O’Kane and Aaron Abernethy decided to do something to help, and soon found that their city wanted to join them.

REVIEW: A Single Man

Tom Ford’s ‘A Single Man’ is a visually beautiful film whose shots linger over its subject matter with a studious intensity, reminding us that Ford is a designer and aesthete first, and a filmmaker second. It tells the tale of ‘light in his loafers’ lecturer George Falconer (Colin Firth) as he negotiates an L.A. day, typical but for the fact that George has decided this will be his very last day alive.

REVIEW: Tokyo Story

Tokyo Story is a film which enjoys perhaps the highest critical acclaim of any film. As I sat down to watch it, I imagined it would be so inherently likable that I would have to agree with all the critics. I was wrong.
