'Why don't you ask him to dance?'

The hour and a half I spent watching The Orphanage in the cinema is officially the most scared I have ever been whilst at the flicks in my whole entire life. My sister was physically shaking. Sophie and Faye couldn’t even look at the screen. It’s terrifying. Yet amazing.

Another amazing movie is Lars and the Real Girl. The beautiful Ryan Gosling falls in love with a sex doll. It sounds really odd and creepy but it’s actually lovely and made Bam cry. It’s currently showing at the Cornerhouse, you should make the trip.

Here’s something I learnt this weekend – never bite off more than you can chew. You’ll end up in the middle of a dancefloor surrounded by people you don’t even know, competing in an impromptu danceoff, while the DJ spins Run DMC’s ‘It’s Like That’. Everyone will find it funny apart from you. And there will be incriminating photographic evidence. As a side note, if you do happen to find yourself in said situation, avoid challenging the super cool guy who is clearly a very good dancer, thinking you’re better than he is. You’re not, and he will only let you ‘win’ out of pity.
