The Appointment (1981):

If anyone can get me a copy of this film I will be forever in your debt. Partly seen it twice in a late night drunken haze: really need to know if it was as good as it seemed.

The Story of the Tape:

A man has brought back a never-recorded Beatles album from a parallel dimension. I haven’t actually listened to any of it yet, so I can’t tell if Earth 616 Beatles are any good or not. I bet they’re amazing.

Bjork is writing a song for a Moomins film. Is this good? I can’t tell, I’m blinded by the phrase ‘Moomins film’. It’ll be bobbins, though, won’t it?
