The Business of Film: Onward
James Cameron-Wilson looks at the UK box office, where takings are down 43% year-on-year. It's a disappointing opening at #1 for Pixar's latest animation, Onward, even though James adored it. In at #3 is Military Wives while a horror treatment of the old US TV series Fantasy Island makes #7. For home release James recommends Sidney Lumet's 1962 adaptations of A Long Day's Journey Into Night, just re-released.

The Business of Film: The Invisible Man
James Cameron-Wilson examines the latest UK box office chart. He recommends The Invisible Man which debuts at #1 as well as true-live environmental legal drama Dark Waters at #4. At #11 is French arthouse movie Portrait of a Lady on Fire, which is another tip from James. For home entertainment, he favours Terminator: Dark Fate which is, he feels, a return to form for the franchise.
