Thanks for that Trevor. I can get British TV with a digibox here. Yeah, Wossie gets on my nerves too, at least to do with films (he can be quite entertaining otherwise, if always self-obsessed)) and he dumbed down the Film programme a bit after Barry Norman (though his reviews are actually quite well expressed)- a more populist programme with him (though Norman was not exactly in an intellectual ivory tower.) So his choice of Asian films is no great surprise (i.e modern + trendy rather than older masters + classics, or more demanding/ difficult films ). He could have done better, but i'll be glad to see 3 ones new to me. And i sppose any season that draws attention to the whole subect and may encourage viewers to delve deeper should be a good thing. Especially as there's still so little world cinema on British TV.
