School of Saatchi~~1/4~~~~false~false~false~true~true~true~false~false~~~Documentary~This fine-art twist on reality TV could be annoying but - hurray! - it really isn't. Instead, it's rewarding and provocative and fun. The idea is a talent contest for young artists, so we're at risk of art-world cant from the word go, as well as some ropey excuses for works: one candidate presents two balled-up emails as his showpiece; another has written out War and Peace by hand. But after the programme has got its amusing no-hopers out of the way, X Factor-style, we get plenty of raw talent on view, with paintings, installations and video pieces that have real beauty to them while slightly messing with our minds. Passing judgement on them is a team of experts including the excellent Matthew Collings. But they're mere go-betweens. Behind the scenes is Charles Saatchi himself, the mega-patron whose nod can gold-plate careers. In a brilliant move, Saatchi never appears on camera, but makes his choices unseen. It's the ultimate in reality-show judging one-upmanship: imagine how much more terrifying Simon Cowell would be if he could only be contacted by phone, like the banker in Deal or No Deal. The programme is classily put together and proves a good way of examining what being an artist means and what we value in contemporary art. If it unearths a Damien Hirst-beating talent, even better.

Buddy Boy~~~1999~Mark D Hanlon~Francis*Aidan Gillen|Gloria*Emmanuelle Seigner|Sal*Susan Tyrrell|Vic*Mark Boone Junior|Father Gillespie*Harry Groener|Mr Salcedo*Hector Elias|Omar*Jon Huertas|Haroonian*Richard Assad~false~true~false~true~true~false~false~false~2~18~Film~The repressed mummy's boy meets the guilt-ridden voyeur in this self-consciously cultish thriller. Director Mark D Hanlon shovels in an excess of religious iconography and laboured macabre comedy to set the tone. But it's Aidan Gillen's furtive performance that more effectively conveys the seedy neediness of the loner who finds release from the demands of his bedridden stepmother in the arms of the excessively grateful Emmanuelle Seigner (the object of his nocturnal peeping), whom he rescues - seemingly all-too-conveniently - from a mugger. That said, Susan Tyrrell dominates the increasingly unlikely proceedings with her grotesque display of alcoholic tyranny.~false~28/11/2009~01:50~03:30~100

You'll need a strong stomach to watch Harris undergoing the elaborate (and accurately depicted) Sun Vow ceremony in which he is impaled by hooks. Despite a largely native American supporting cast and much use of unsubtitled Sioux dialogue, the film's veracity is spoilt by Judith Anderson's turn as a Sioux harridan.

Utilising the original stage cast, director Nicholas Hytner wisely opts to change as little as possible, resisting the urge to open up the material cinematically. This brilliantly serves Bennett's screenplay, which is a masterpiece of wit and intellect worn feather-lightly; a perfectly balanced blend undercut with the darker subject of general studies teacher Hector (Richard Griffiths) and his sexual attraction to the boys. Which leads to this thoroughly enjoyable film's only flaw: there's something slightly implausible about these pupils who combine a kind of romanticised notion of male adolescence extracted from Goodbye Mr Chips with an incredible nonchalance towards the subject of homosexuality and their teacher's repeated attempts to cop a feel. Still, it's not a documentary, and this niggle is more than made up for by the performances, which are uniformly first-rate.~false~04/12/2009~23:35~01:25~110
