Every day for as long as anyone remembers, dairy farmer Padraic (Colin Farrell) has stopped by the cottage where local musician Colm (Brendan Gleeson) resides to take him to the pub. When Colm suddenly tells him the friendship is over, Padraic takes it as a joke, gets distressed, and then gets angry. But Colm is also furious – or seems to be – saying he will cut off a finger every time Padraic bothers him. In a Martin McDonagh film (In Bruges; Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri), such bloody threats are always serious. McDonagh’s tragi-comedy, set on an imaginary island off the coast of Ireland in 1923 – where they can see and hear the splutter of guns in the ongoing Irish revolt – is a brilliant parable of male pain. At first, Colm's emotional implosion seems splendidly childish, but then the violent fallout shows how sinister male pride can be.

K-POPS
Director: Anderson .Paak
Eight-time Grammy winner Anderson .Paak makes his film debut with the story of a washed-up drummer whose life turns around when he meets his teenage son for the first time. Paak himself plays the father BJ, who is still holding out in middle age for rock’n’roll stardom; his real-life son Soul Rasheed plays the fictional Tae Young, whose mother Yeji is Korean. When BJ gets an unexpected gig on a Korean talent show, he discovers Tae Young, a hotly-tipped contestant. Eager to make up for lost parenting time, BJ becomes the boy’s mentor – but the truth is that he needs help to grow up himself. Riffing off their real family relationships, .Paak’s comedy is an instant winner full of charm and K-Pop fandom.
