The Business of Film: Red Rocket, Turning Red & The Adam Project
With 'The Batman' still dominating cinema screens with a total take of £26m, James Cameron-Wilson looks at 'Red Rocket' from Sean Baker, in at #12. Pixar's animated 'Turning Red', about female puberty, has bypassed cinemas and gone straight to Disney+. James admired it, despite it going OTT at the end. He also much enjoyed the self-knowing time-travel adventure 'The Adam Project' with Ryan Reynolds on Netflix.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Why is a central banker like a porcupine in a balloon factory?
Perusing the latest statement from the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee, Russ Mould of A J Bell says that central bankers currently resemble porcupines in a balloon factory. For investors, trying to second-guess events is extremely difficult, if not impossible. So they should ensure they are sensibly diversified while trying to avoid heavily-indebted companies, particularly in cylical industries. If your portfolio is keeping you awake at night, says Russ, then you should change it.

This Is Money: Is raising interest rates the right move and will it slow inflation?
It's a hat trick. After all those years of waiting in vain for a rate rise after the financial crisis, now the Bank of England has the wind in its sails and has raised rates three times since December. The shift up in the base rate to 0.75% hardly takes rates into the stratosphere but moving from 0.1% to here in four months stands at serious odds with the lower for longer mantra that dominated the past decade and a bit of central bank thinking. It's being done to combat inflation that's now forecast to hit 8% (or maybe higher admits the Bank). The irony is that interest rate rises will do little to tackle imported inflation. So is the Bank making the right moves? Is it right to try to crack down on inflation now, or is it putting the Covid recovery at risk? And what does this mean for savers, borrowers and investors? Tanya Jefferies, Georgie Frost and Simon Lambert discuss the rate hike - if you can call a quarter point rise a hike - and how much more of this may be coming down the line. Plus, what are the best shares and funds to stash in your ISA in volatile times, do you have to pay tax on a £20,000 bitcoin profit, and would you swap your device trash for cash at Currys?

Thought for the Week: Is mass charisma the Achilles heel of humanity?
The sight of Putin seeking to rally his 'supporters' at Moscow’s Luzhynik Stadium is nothing new: the use of mass charisma as a tool for controlling people goes back millennia, and remains a major challenge for those who believe in individual liberty. This week we look at how the technique, recognised by German sociologist and political economist Max Weber as one of three tools of political domination, is used to inject a subconscious herd mentality into humanity and how, at a personal level, it can be controlled. Accompanying music is 'Russian Dance' by Joey Pecoraro
