What's Love Got To Do With It? (2022 Shekhar Kapur)

There are a few 'roms' in these pages, such as Never Been Kissed, Love, Rosie, Isn't It Romantic and What If? This one, though like the others not funny, is quite enjoyable as it goes towards the conclusion we know it will go towards, and in talking about 'assisted' marriages ('like assisted suicide?' Lily James asks Shazad Latif) has a certain point of difference.

Whether James and Latif are any good is a moot point.

Noticed the good editing - Guy Bensley and Nick Moore. Written by Jemima Khan. Enjoyed Lily's descriptions of her love life as various fairy tales. And the 'continent' that is between their two houses.

With Emma Thompson, Shabana Azmi (a noted Indian actress and activist), Sajal Aly (the bride), Oliver Chris. Also liked the two empty headed producer types.

DP Remi Adafarasin.



It's a Canon EOS C70, though we both thought she needed separate sound recording
