Obligatory wrap-up post of those songs I've played most during the month when Johnny The Boxxx found a Party Up-interpolating smutty New Orleans Bounce song by some lass who looks like a back-up dancer from an old J Hus video.

The Firm is easily one of Gary Oldman's best films. Great supporting cast, too.
ReplyDeleteBefore Drexl there was Bexy.
DeleteGotta love a movie which features Benny from Grange Hill, Jim Mcdonald from Corrie and Phil Mitchell from Eastenders.
Cosh & Bex.
ReplyDeleteMickey Pearce from Only Fools and Horses is also in it. 😀
All the lads.
DeleteThe Firm 1989 >>>>> The Firm 1993
ReplyDeleteAlso The Long Kiss Goodnight made a huge impression on me as a kid haha, I still reference some scenes to this day (the chopping veggies one especially). Solid 2nd/3rd tier 90s action flick.
TBH I'd never even heard of The Long Kiss Goodnight until my local cinema screened it as part of their film club a few weeks back. Absolute 1st tier 90s action flick to me.
DeleteWhat you reckon to the new Schoolly D album? https://schoollyd.bandcamp.com/album/cuz-that-nixxers-crazy-thats-why
ReplyDeleteSum shit I wasn't expecting. Will peep it later.
DeleteDropped last year as far as I know but had a rerelease this year.
DeleteI rewatched point break the other night (BFI player innit) and I'd say it's about as good as a cheesy American crime/action flick can get.
ReplyDeleteAlso BFI player watched: crouching tiger, hidden dragon, drunken angel, stray dog, Yojimbo, police story
All bangers - corpseE
I finally saw it at the cinema thanks to the BFI's action season thingy.
DeleteBig fan of the BFI player. Only streaming service I'll ever pay for, in fact.
