Well, that certainly made the weekend.

We picked up a copy of Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels the other night for £3. None of us had ever seen it, but everyone says we should see it. Tonight after dinner, we finally sat down to watch it.

What a fun film. Well, as fun as it can really get with a body count that high. But hey, Sting is in it! ;-)

Seriously, if you haven't seen it, you should. I can't believe we waited this long. As London films go, this one and Football Factory are pretty much the cream of the crop. Unless you count Shaun of the Dead. Or, you know, Love, Actually. (And I kinda do.)

There are lots of good films based in London, aren't there?

What's your favourite London film?

Skewing Your Timeframe

Square of me, I know, but probably My Fair Lady and Mary Poppins (rather older London), Quadrophenia (if you count it as a London pic, given how much of it's set in Brighton), or A Lion in Winter (okay, so extremely older London)

For more recent London, Shaun of the Dead is fun, if a bit on the bloody side for me.

Whoops. Sorry; I forgot Lion in Winter is not set in London; it just has that vibe. Mea culpa
