Cecil & Bea de Mille

Cecil: Just because I'm named after a cinema in Hull which closed about 20 years ago does not mean I cannot have my own blog. Most of the films I will be reviewing on this blog would probably never have been shown at the Cecil Cinema in Hull, but it's the memory that counts... Bea: Bea-ing from Down Under, I will be taking an interest in films from a more southern clime, although this could mean Italy, Turkey, Brighton or Australia...
