I Watched Freeway (1996)

Reese Witherspoon is a teenage force of nature here who just wants to get back to grandma's house, with plenty of big bad wolves (i.e. men) in her way. I always thought Election was her best work but I think she's even better here.

Great work also by Kiefer Sutherland.

I loved Roy Hudd's radio presence

I've been rewatching Dennis Potter's 'Lipstick On Your Collar' and Roy Hudd has a part in it as Harold Atterbow and it got me thinking what a great radio show he had with June Whitfield in The News Huddlines.

I hope some day his series about the Water Rats called Tales From the Lodge Room will return.

The Rad Girls (Ramona Cash, Munchie, and Darling Clementine) gave the Jackass men a run for their money in the gross-out stakes

What a great soundtrack to a great film. everyone is great but Robert Carlisle as Begbie stands out. It's been ages since I watched it and this time, I love the latter scenes set in London more than I remembered previously.

Poor Tommy. I fully blame Renton for that.
