We Paid To See This

Is eating honey animal abuse? Can a vegan have a leather couch? Do men’s nether regions droop to the floor as they get older?  The answers to these questions and reviews of three great films! First, the smash hit latest installment of the Mission Impossible franchise, ‘Mission Impossible: Fallout’ (Tom Cruise, Henry Cavil, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, Angela Bassett, Vanessa Kirby).  Then we all serious (there are still gross jokes) with two fantastic documentaries. First up, photographer, filmaker Lauren Greenfield (The Queen of Versailles, Thin) explores the link between money and happiness by connecting a series of personal subject studies and relating the arc of their lives to the happiness quotient.  Then we talk about the sophisticated and visual feast that is ‘McQueen’ ( Ian Bonhôte, Peter Ettedgui) - a documentary about the rise and eventual tragic death of iconic British fashion designer, Alexander McQueen.
