Tom Riley and Joanne Froggatt star in a strong new British independent film. Here's our review of Starfish...
Tom Ray (Tom Riley) has everything a man could seemingly want, a beautiful wife, a doting daughter and a second baby imminently due; however where most love stories end Starfish begins. Children’s author Tom routinely spends his days at home caring for his enraptured first born Grace (Ellie Copping), filling her head with wondrous tales about the magical properties of Starfish and how they can adeptly regenerate any lost limb. Together with breadwinning wife Nicola (Joanne Froggatt) this cosy and devoted trio blissful embody the idyllic family dream.
After a violent bout of crippling stomach pains (which are hastily attributed to a couple of expired sausages), Tom is frantically rushed to A&E where doctors belatedly diagnosis him with sepsis, an organ failure blood poisoning which kills 44,000 people each year. The...

Today was a busy day for some of the smaller guilds with the Visual Effects Society, the Cinema Audio Society, and the Makeup and Hairstylists Guilds all announcing their nominations for 2013.
First, we have the Ves, whose main category to look at is “Outstanding Visual Effects in a Visual Effects-Driven Feature Motion Picture,” where we find Gravity and four other nominees that are just going to have to be happy with the fact that they got nominated. This is perhaps the easiest category to call in the entirety of awards season, and I don’t mean just here, but for the Oscar as well (Last year’s winner, Life of Pi, easily took this category before going on to claim the Oscar). It’s true that films like The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and Star Trek Into Darkness had outstanding effects as well, but nothing even came close to the amazing,...
