This is my interview on Kent Tonight in which I chat with Finn about the news that Adele is about to star in a film directed by Tom Ford; why Harry Potter films are often thought to be Christmas movies (I give a few other examples of non-Christmas movies often associated with the season); and the news that there will be a new Toy Story movie next year.

I’ve always had a soft spot for Kenneth Branagh’s 1994 ‘Frankenstein’, featuring Robert De Niro as the Creature (which didn’t go down too well with the critics), but Guillermo del Toro’s new reimagining is something altogether different – a feverish, Gothic dream that unfolds like a tragic opera about creation, obsession, and the failure of love. Here, del Toro draws out the story’s deeper allegory about parenting....

Lynne Ramsay’s ‘Die My Love’ is an intense, feral film – visceral, unsettling, and deeply internal. It stars Jennifer Lawrence as Grace, a woman in her thirties whose life begins to unravel after giving birth. Her marriage to Jackson, played by Robert Pattinson, is at first passionate and physical, but post-pregnancy her desires and emotions spiral into something wild, uncontrollable, and frightening – both for her and for him....

‘The Mastermind’ is a cool, detached character study – part heist movie, part existential drama. It reminded me of ‘The Holdovers’, not just for its 1970s aesthetic but for its focus on privileged people quietly drifting through life. Joshua O’Connor plays an out-of-work carpenter who decides, almost on a whim, to rob a local art museum. It’s not a slick, ‘Dog Day Afternoon’-style caper – more a spontaneous act of self-destruction by a man who’s lost his purpose....

This isn’t a film that wallows in sentimentality, but it does sit within that familiar British tradition – think ‘Fisherman’s Friends’ or ‘The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill’ – where an outsider arrives in a small community, meets resistance, and eventually changes it forever. Here, that outsider is Ralph Fiennes as Dr Guthrie, a brilliant but troubled choirmaster who takes over a parish choir in a Yorkshire mill town in 1916....

‘Relay’ is a superb throwback to the paranoid conspiracy thrillers of the 1970s – films like ‘The Parallax View’ and ‘Three Days of the Condor’. It’s tense, quiet, patient… and gripping. The story centres on Ash (Riz Ahmed), a kind of underground broker who protects whistleblowers. He works entirely off the grid. He’s a master of disguise, always several steps ahead of everyone trying to track him....

Calling a film deranged is headline-grabbing – but in the case of ‘Bugonia’, it’s absolutely accurate. Yorgos Lanthimos once again delivers something outrageous, provocative and utterly bonkers. As with ‘Poor Things’, he specializes in giving us characters with extreme, sometimes sociopathic or unhinged ways of processing the world. It’s the dissonance that makes him so unsettling: a seemingly grounded, plausible world… with behaviour and violence that is shocking, grotesque and absurd....

With Cameron on Kent Tonight we talk about BAFTA Rising Star Mia McKenna-Bruce, from Maidstone, who will be playing the wife of Ringo Starr in Sam Mendes's upcoming series of Beatles biopics. We also talk about the new Miss Piggy movie that Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence are set to produce. And we discuss the proposed new The Mummy film, which it is rumoured will reunite Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, that may well also be filmed in Kent.
