Celeste, poet Brian Bilston, new film Palmer reviewed
Celeste on her debut album, poet Brian Bilston, and new film Palmer reviewed.
Celeste talks to Front Row about her career from making tracks on a laptop in her bedroom to successes at the Brit and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Music Awards, composing and performing the music for last year's John Lewis advert, A Little Love, and the release of her debut album 'Not Your Muse'.
She blew her fusilli,
my pretty penne,
when she found me watching
daytime tagliatelle.
The first stanza of 'The Remembrance of Things Pasta' is typical of the poetry of Brian Bilston, who has been called the Banksy of Poetry and Twitter's unofficial poet laureate. He talks and reads witty, wry and wise poetry from his new collection, 'Alexa, what is there to know about love?'
And Ryan Gilbey gives his verdict on new film Palmer starring Justin Timberlake. Former high school football star Eddie Palmer went from hometown hero to convicted felon. He returns home to Louisiana and the grandmother who raised him but things become more complicated when Vivian’s hard-living neighbour Shelly (Juno Temple) disappears on a prolonged bender, leaving her precocious and unique 7-year-old son Sam (Ryder Allen), often the target of bullying for his gender non-conforming behaviour, in Palmer’s reluctant care.
