My Life in Film - Britmovie

Steve Crook · 11-01-2005, 01:11 AM

Has anyone else been watching My Life in Film on BBC2 on Sunday nights?

About a scriptwriter (he hopes) and film fan who, through a series of mishaps & misunderstandings, lives out various movies. Last week it was Rear Window, yesterday it was The Shining and next week it's Top Gun. As well as the main film of that week there are plenty of other movie references throughout each episode.

Apparently it was run on BBC3 last October but I never caught any of them on there.

With Kris Marshall from My Family. I've seen a few moments when channel-hopping (normally a film pastiche in his flat) but never watched a full episode.

Try a full episode. I think you'll like them.

Watched much of the first show on BBC 2 ...the Beeb's certainly got a vehicle for its star, but I don't think it has a comedy classic on its hands...

Overly stupid (and quite frankly depressingly disturbed in one case) characters and obvious homages.
Gave up after half an episode.
