Open Culture (via) has three films and a TV programme made by Christopher Sykes about the physicist Richard Feynman. There is a lot of video here and I haven’t had a chance to watch much of it yet, but I certainly intend on doing so as soon as I am able.
The first one, The Pleasure of Finding Things Out is embedded below. You can find the other three on the Open Culture site.
Just before Christmas, I watched Things I Don’t Understand, an independent drama from New York writer/director, David Spaltro.
I was intending to post a review on Pulpmovies before Christmas. And then I was intending to post the review on 1st January. Life just keeps on intruding.
But the review is now up, here, and I am intending to ensure that the next one isn’t quite so badly delayed.

I’ve not been following the upcoming Tintin film, The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn particularly closely but it is a film I would quite like to see – not least because we’re currently living in the country of HergĂ©. This changed somewhat after Boing Boing published the US poster for the film and I realised who was behind the script: Steven Moffat, Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish.

Sorry, Eve, but when this comes out in Belgium (probably in October) it will be my turn to take Macsen to the cinema.
The fine folks behind the upcoming Iron Sky have released a rather fetching wallpaper based on the space Zeppelin picture that can be seen on the entry page for the film’s website.
I couldn’t resist.

EastEnders not realistic, says boss
EastEnders does not offer a realistic portrayal of working-class life and is not as multicultural as the real East End of London, its boss has admitted.
The boss in question is the BBC’s controller of drama production, John Yorke. Tomorrow I shall be looking forward to hearing his insight on where bears defecate.
