Kingsman: The Golden Circle is the sequel to 2014’s Kingsman: The Secret Service, a film I didn’t get round to watching for ages because of the censored violence in the church fight scene for the UK version, so I kept intending to get round to watching the US uncut version… …until I eventually discovered that […]

George Michael: Freedom is the documentary he co-directed, himself, last year, unaware at the time that it would end up screening after he passed away, on Christmas Day 2016, from heart failure.
