The Empire of Light, René Magritte (1953). Depicting the paradoxical image of a nighttime street, lit only by a single street light, beneath a daytime sky. Inspiration for the iconic scene & poster in The Exorcist, in which Fr Merrin stands in front of the MacNeil family's house.

TV at its best, pitch perfect writing, acting & direction. An incredibly chilling & harrowing true story. The meeting between an inspirational teacher & a charismatic student led to one of the most complex & confounding criminal cases in recent times. theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2…

Robbie Robertson RIP😓 Another legend gone. Always loved the Easy Rider Soundtrack, especially this.... youtu.be/hsFOKNQxIhQ

Actor, Author, Musician, buddhist; Michael Imperioli is a much more complex guy than I realised & has a great taste in music. Some great questions for him here from guardian readers... #michaelimperioli #sopranos #morrissey #newyorker theguardian.com/culture/2023/a…

Finally watched the great Billy Friedkins' lost masterwork 'Sorcerer'. Starring Roy Scheider, its an epic, unforgiving & relentless film. Many scenes are absolutely jaw dropping. It's also been wonderfully restored. Now on prime👌 Kermodes review👇 youtu.be/s31aWrHHcIc?si…

State. Of. That.... Could be useful as a location for a Belfast post apocalyptic zombie flick. But that's about all. Pure grim.

Today a rotting Tesco crapstore is on this site on the corner of the Antrim Road & Alexandra Park Avenue. In the 1940s it was home of the beautiful Art Deco Capitol Cinema. But they demolished it in the 1970s. Sure what would you want that for? Grim🤦

Earl of Shaftesbury has been happy taking money from sand dredgers for years. Totally Immoral. If all it costs is £6mill to bring it into public ownership then that should be done asap. But without a functioning exec. what hope is there of that happening? irishnews.com/news/northerni…

A great review of the new Ken Loach film...The Old Oak... on Queen's Film Theatre now & will surely be his last film. Sixteen Films VIEWdigital viewdigital.org/review-call-fo…

'The poisoning of the lough is partly a product of poor decision-making at Stormont over decades. But it is also a metaphor for the poisoned state of politics and governance in the North'. irishtimes.com/opinion/2023/0…

So excited about this. John Sayles and Maggie Renzi in Belfast, and I can't wait to see what titles they screen as part of their visit - City of Hope? Matewan? Lone Star? So many possibilities.

Very much looking forward to Mark Kermode's annual Film night for Cinemagic Belfast at the QFT tomorrow night! This year's selection is the Lionel Jeffries 1972 supernatural adventure 'The Amazing Mr Blunden'. Cinemagic Festival @qft #theamazingmrblunden #markkermode

All day across BBC News NI we'll be looking at the environmental issues blighting #LoughNeagh and how to fix them. Follow all our live coverage here - starting with the Good Morning Ulster team broadcasting from the water's edge. bbc.in/3PF7zLj

"In the long-term, the only way of really resolving this is managing the nutrients going into the lough." Scientists give their opinions on how to prevent toxic blue-green algae building up in #LoughNeagh: bbc.in/46T7IlB

This is a badly needed & long overdue investment in infrastructure & public transport routes. Not only contributing to the sustainability agenda, by offering an option for car free travel, but also improving tourism & travel in NI with a route to & from the international airport

Well this doesn't happen everyday! Beatle Magic! Absolutely phenomenal stuff, not a dry eye in the house❤️ #thebeatles #NowAndThen youtube.com/watch?v=APJAQo…
