TOM'S MIDNIGHT GARDEN (1998) - (DVD) An adaptation of Philippa Pierce's classic children's novel. In 1950's England Tom goes to stay with his aunt and uncle. When their broken grandfather clock strikes thirteen their house transforms into the mansion it once was and an extraordinary garden appears... Willard Caroll's adaption of Philippa Pierce's Tom's Midnight Garden is the sort of children's film which will probably appeal more to adults with fond memories of the novel. Given that the original story was set in 1950 the film manages to be a sort of two-tier period drama with fifties Tom heading back in time to Victorian times suggestions of tinkering with the plot to make Tom more contemporary are probably gross heresy so shall be discussed no further here. A good cast struggle with a wordy screenplay and some of the scenes feel a little uneasy but the acting is good throughout - particularly the young leads who must carry the scenes. Production values are fine too and the film manages to capture some of the magic of the original novel. One for parents - indeed anyone with nostalgic hankerings over the book. Rope in the kids too though they'll no doubt be suckered in and maybe later you'll find them scouring the bookshelves... ... Parachutes Listening to Parachutes it quite quickly becomes obvious exactly why there was so much anticipation surrounding its release. Chris Martin's gorgeous voice is the perfect vehicle for a selection of songs that display a talent and imagination you'd generally expect to be far beyond the reach of most groups this early in their career. However veering from fragile to forceful and from understated to epic each and every one of these songs is a masterpiece. As well as their Top 40 hit 'Shiver' Parachutes also includes the simply fantastic 'Yellow' which shot straight up the charts to number 4 proving to this reviewer at least that the British public really do have quite good music taste after all. I can't guarantee that this album will change your life nor can I suggest that buying it will be the best decision you've made all year but if you enjoy good music than you can certainly do much much worse than getting yourself a copy of this fantastic and highly enjoyable album. ...
