HOOD: HOOD Awards
Wednesday, June 15th, 2011
Since the year is finished, the time has come for the Hood to look back over the year and dish out some awards to the societies, people and so on that I feel deserve to have the cold light of day poured onto their pimply backsides. Unlike the SU awards, these awards have been well thought out, and will not be awarded based on good relations with staff. The recipients and nominees will not get a dinner, nor will any society receive more than one award. However, in a similar vein to the SU awards however, these are undemocratic, uncounselled and decided by a heavily breathing man sitting in the dark.

REVIEW: Exit through the Giftshop
Sunday, March 14th, 2010
The Mysterious street artist/vandal/topic of controversy Banksy opens with his first film, a documentary about an attempted documentary maker. Thierry Guetta, a French immigrant in Los Angeles is a camera obsessive, who through his cousin ‘Invader’, gets gradually more and more involved in the subversive world of street art. Those of you wishing to see Banksy’s face or voice will be disappointed as he’s dubbed over, but the film, rather than being about him, is rather more directed by him, about the original filmmaker as a ‘more interesting character’.

REVIEW: Disgrace
Monday, February 1st, 2010
There’s only so cheerful a film about post-apartheid South Africa can be, a sort of ‘joy quota’. With that in mind comes Disgrace , an adaptation of Coatzee’s novel of the same name, offering the very best in bleak tragedy.
