The latest Sight & Sound is out, complete with my news item on the re-emergence of Michelangelo Antonioni’s The Passenger and the bizarre chain of circumstances that kept it out of circulation for so long, plus the mildly enjoyable but disappointingly unambitious British comedy-thriller Out on a Limb.

The latest Sight & Sound is out, complete with my review of The Jealous God, a quixotic attempt by writer-director Steven Woodcock at reviving the spirit of the British New Wave – although, as I argue in the piece, the highly televisual result closer to watered-down heritage cinema than the socially and culturally groundbreaking work being produced by Karel Reisz, Lindsay Anderson, Tony Richardson et al in the late 1950s/early 1960s, and it’s the palest shadow of John Braine’s original novel. Still, the commission gave me an excuse to read it, so at least I got something worthwhile out of the experience.
