Filmmaker Interview with Ranw Aso-Rashid
28:48||Season 3, Ep. 11Filmmaker Ranw Aso-Rashid speaks with film critic Chris Olson for UK Film Review about his latest short film, Whispers of Redemption. The exclusive filmmaker interview covers many aspects of Ranw's filmmaking, including his production company AR Studios.Read our indie film review of Whispers of Redemption on our website, where James Learoyd said this about it:"Ranw Aso-Rashid's Whispers of Redemption is a sharply crafted little film with a lovely sentiment. Eric (Ansu Njai) is a young man who’s just lost his mother. With her ashes, he goes to the sea to find solace and meets Grace (Jenny Rowe) and her dog. She too has lost someone in her life, so she shares some important advice about how to keep living. There are many short films about loss, but audiences will appreciate the fact that – by the story’s end – this is far more a piece about moving on than it is about being stuck inside the pain; and the vast ocean before them serves as a lovely visual metaphor for the flowing, uncontrollable feelings our protagonist must come to accept. What we as the audience witness is simply a ten-minute, extended conversation about how we deal with mourning. It’s a deeply heartfelt piece of writing, yet it’s the filmmaking that really elevates the content..."Read our Latest Movie Reviews on our website.

September 5 - Bridget Jones Mad About the Boy - Flight Risk - UK Film Club Episode 24
01:19:31||Season 3, Ep. 6On this movie podcast episode, we have the latest movie reviews of: Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, September 5, Flight Risk, Kinda Pregnant. We have indie film reviews of White Crow, The Space Rodent, Photocopy, and What No One Knows. As well as a nostalgia review of a certain Mel Gibson film that won Best Picture 30 years ago! In White Crow, Julian Gamm plays ex-agent J.D who is on a mission to avenge his misdeeds as an operative in a shady government unit after he learns of the depths of their evil. Whilst trying to take out various members of his former agency, he becomes hunted in return and goes on the run with unwitting do-gooder Emma (Hanna Al Rashid), who saves his bacon on more than a few occasions.In The Space Rodent, best friends and fellow layabouts Mac (Robert Carrera) and Dean (David Minard) hang out at home whilst their partners Amanda (Leah Barnard) and Skylar (Shelby Broadnax) head out on a drive. But trick or treaters are the least of their worries when giant monstrous rats from out of space travel through a wormhole in search of a new home. After a gruesome home invasion, the gang must gather together and use whatever weapons they can find to fight off the invasion.Photocopy (2023) is no ordinary psychological thriller. Clocking in at under 13 minutes, one would expect a short film about a lone photographer to be more mellow, perhaps even meandering; but this New York-set exploration of one man’s mental decline packs a strong punch. It’s unashamedly stylish and disorienting, though always engaging, and patiently incorporates surreal ideas into the mix as it progresses. Our protagonist (played by Dane Clarke II in a mostly silent performance) wanders the streets in search of that perfect shot but starts to spot a figure that peculiarly resembles himself.What No Know One Knows follows the passing of her parents as a child, Oriyomi moves to Nigeria from Britain, where she befriends Ifelolu. The two of them develop a strong bond and grow up together, ending up owning an events management business. Eventually, Oriyomi meets and marries Akinola (Mofe Duncan), while Ifelolu marries Efosa (Enyinna Nwigwe). Eventually, problems arise within both couples, as Akinola is determined to father a son and Efosa wants a child, while Ifelolu does not. Hoping to avoid further issues, the two friends come up with an idea that might end up ruining their lives.Join film critics Brian Penn and Chris Olson for this episode of UK Film Club.
