The feel-good read of 2023. Perfect for fans of Mike Gayle, Beth
O'Leary and Alice Oseman's Heartstopper. When 79-year-old Arthur
Edwards gathers his family together to share some important news,
no one is prepared for the bombshell he drops: he's gay, and after
a lifetime in the closet, he's finally ready to come out. Arthur's
21-year-old grandson, Teddy, has a secret of his own: he's also
gay, and developing serious feelings for his colleague Ben. But
Teddy doesn't feel ready to come out yet - especially when Arthur's
announcement causes shockwaves in the family. Arthur and Teddy have
always been close, and now they must navigate first loves,
heartbreak, and finding their place in their community. But can
they - and their family - learn to accept who they truly are?
Readers are LOVING Arthur and Teddy! 'Too often, queer literature
is enjoyed only by the LGBT+ community, but this is a novel ready
to be loved by the masses.' 'I'd love to have read something like
this when I was younger and finding myself.' 'Arthur and Teddy's
relationship was the definite highlight of this story. The way in
which they leaned on each for support just felt really new and
fresh.'

Double bill of British dramas about football violence and
hooliganism. 'The Football Factory' (2004) is based on the novel by
John King. Tommy Johnson (Danny Dyer) is a bright but bored
30-year-old with a steady job and close-knit family who lives for
the weekend life of casual sex, lager, drugs - and violence.
Through him we meet three other males in his world: Billy Bright
(Frank Harper), a right-wing fascist full of bitterness at a
country that he perceives as having failed him; Zeberdee (Roland
Manookian), a mouthy hooligan whose life revolves around crime and
drugs; and Bill Farrell (Dudley Sutton), a 70-year-old war veteran
who tries to enjoy every day to the limit. Shot in documentary
style using a handheld camera, the film realistically captures the
lure and potency of football violence. 'Arrivederci Millwall'
(1990) follows a group of hardcore Millwall supporters as they
travel to Bilbao in Spain for England's World Cup matches in 1982.
Their rowdy behaviour soon leads them into trouble, and the
violence escalates as Billy Jarvis (Kevin O'Donohoe) steals a gun
to avenge his brother's death in the Falklands conflict.

with Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) when he is assigned to investigate
Californian drug baron 'The General' (Mitchell Ryan). Following the
death of his wife, Riggs has become a manic loner who no longer
cares whether he lives or dies; an approach which causes more than
a few problems as he and Murtaugh attempt to bring the General to
justice.

Independent British thriller starring Dougray Scott and Kara
Tointon. Lewis (Scott), an overworked doctor, is on his way home
from London with his young son Max (Joshua Kaynama). Clearly
exhausted from his work, Lewis decides to take a nap on the train
while an attractive young woman (Tointon) watches over his son.
When he wakes, all but a few passengers have alighted and he
realises that the train is not stopping to let anyone else off.
Determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, Lewis goes to
investigate and finds that the train has been taken over by an
unstable driver who is hellbent on destroying the vehicle along
with all the remaining passengers on board. It falls to Lewis to
put an end to his plans...
Hood drama follows single dad trying to retrieve abducted son.
Former gang-banging single dad O2 (Tyrese Gibson) is suddenly
plunged into a do-or-die situation; trying to go straight for his
son, Junior's sake, this recently paroled ex-con is forced to go
back outside the law after his son is kidnapped in a carjacking.
The resulting chase and shootout have left Junior in the hands of
Meat (The Game), the vicious leader of the Outlaw Syndicate. O2's
shady cousin Lucky (Larenz Tate) tries to mediate, but is torn
between criminal and family loyalties. The only person willing to
help O2 get his son back is wily street-smart hustler Coco (Meagan
Good), whose path fatefully crossed O2's just moments before the
kidnapping. When Lucky gets word to O2 that Meat expects $100,000
for Junior's freedom, O2 and Coco seize the opportunity to pit
rival elements of the South Los Angeles underworld against each
other. 'It's either all or nothing,' realizes O2. With the clock
ticking down, the heat between O2 and Coco rises as they become a
lawbreaking couple, on a tear through a range of Los Angeles
neighborhoods. Can they outwit the underworld and save Junior and
themselves?
