Jon Kenna @jonkenna.bsky.social · 26/09/2026This laughable British sci-fi film from the 60s was great Saturday night viewing. It's the Night of the Big Heat so naturally it's supposed to be hot. Everyone just keeps saying 'ooh it's so hot!' even though we can clearly see from the bare trees and lead skies that it's November. boxd.it/gvmXNxboxd.itA ★★ review of Night of the Big Heat (1967)Laughable British sci-fi pantomime with a soundtrack straight off a Carry On film.

Jon Kenna @jonkenna.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Just finished The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler. I really wanted to like it. I was happy to overlook the horribly dated language and attitudes. But wanting to like a book doesn't really work, does it? #reading #books www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...goodreads.comThe Big Sleep (Philip Marlowe, #1)Hard-boiled detective fiction at its best: Raymond Chan… 030

Jon Kenna @jonkenna.bsky.social · 21/09/2026There's an art to doing everything wrong but occasionally hitting the right note at the right time. This film has it. So did Winston Churchill apparently #film #cinema #movies boxd.it/gqQTtjboxd.itA ★★★½ review of Darkest Hour (2017)This is an unchallenging, safe kind of film that, nevertheless, occasionally hits a right note at a right time.

Jon Kenna @jonkenna.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Not only have I never listened to the band Gong but I'd never even heard of them until the other day. They've only been around since 1967. I read that they inspired a lot of bands I like so I'm trying their latest album Bright Spirit. Tiny bit New Age soft rock for my taste but good #music #records 020
Jon Kenna @jonkenna.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Saw Tony at Warrington Odeon last night. Pretty generic coming of age stuff albeit of good quality. There's not too much, if any, innovation.
