The Business of Film: The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, Ghosted, Peter Pan & Wendy

The Business of Film: The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, Ghosted, Peter Pan & Wendy
With box office down another 12% and Super Mario Bros. still #1, James Cameron-Wilson gives thanks for The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry at #3. Adapted by the author, it stars Jim Broadbent as a man who goes to post a letter – and keeps walking, and James found it deeply moving. On Apple+ he watched Chris Evans in action thriller Ghosted, which he found disappointingly overfamiliar. But worse still, on Disney+, was Peter Pan & Wendy, a live-action remake of the original cartoon, which he found wrong in almost every regard. Simon Rose found the French version of The Three Musketeers – D'Artagnan a perfectly enjoyable version of the much-filmed story.

Gadgets & Gizmos: Sneaking war news into Russia, AI innovatios, bike radars & cultivated fish
Steve Caplin delves into the latest tech, with a computer game that's found a way to sneak censored war news into Russia. ChatGPT is apparently more empathetic than real doctors while AI can now provide therapy and even read minds. Before long you'll be able to control your kettle by stroking it, there's a bike helmet with clever indicators and a bike light with built-in radar. Cultivated fish grown in a lab have been developed, with eel next on the list and Uber have a replica Coronation carriage you can ride in.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: What does US interest rate rise signify for UK rates?
Victoria Scholar of Interactive Investor explains why the US Fed raised rates for the 10th time in 14 months to a 16-year-high, despite the turmoil in the American banking sector. It makes it all the more likely that the MPC will follow suit. Despite the American move, sterling is at an 11-month high against the dollar. She also looks at results from BP and Shell and discusses the major slide in oil prices.

Thought for the Week: Reigning Forwards — or Reining Back?
As we progress through the pomp and splendour of the Coronation over the next few days, many will be asking themselves ‘what is the relevance of the monarchy in today's world?’. Will King Charles reign forward, spending the majority of his time travelling the world and building one human family in which discord can become a thing of the past? Or will he just rein back here in the United Kingdom, allowing parochial pressures for contraction to eclipse this wider opportunity?
