The Deal (2003)
I was having a look at the new film in the so-called “Blair trilogy” comprising of The Deal, The Queen and The Special Relationship (2010), which’ll hit cinemas sometime this year (yes, that was vague). Anyway, you can watch The Deal on Youtube, or easier still, by playing the parts below. Well worth a watch in my opinion, for me it’s a bit of a history lesson in political events that quite went over my head because at the time I was too wee to care about that sort of thing.
Bond 23
I was stoked to find out that Peter Morgan is writing the Bond 23 script. He’s written some great screenplays including that of Frost/Nixon (2008), The Queen (2006) and possibly my favourite, The Last King of Scotland (2006). For the director we’re looking at Sam Mendes – Revolutionary Road (2008), Jarhead (2005), Road to Perdition (2002) and American Beauty (1999). So two pretty big guns!
