Doctor Who: Love and War Review
Back in 2012, as part of the anniversary celebrations marking 20 years since the creation of Bernice Summerfield, Big Finish decided to mark such a momentous occasion with the release of an audio adaptation of "Love and War", the 1992 book which introduced Bernice Summerfield for the first time. Not only did this mean that Lisa Bowerman would depict the very first story to feature Bernice Summerfield, but also it marked a chance for Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred to depict the circumstances of the Doctor and Ace's parting: an event talked about for years, but never performed by the actors. In many ways, then, this was a hugely significant release, and there was a lot of anticipation for it from fans of the classic series' final few years, and those who followed the books in the early 1990s too. And it is safe to say that "Love and War" is a triumph: not only did it spawn a further nine Novel Adaptations, but it managed to distil one of the most popular New Adventures into a two-hour release that never feels overly compressed or rushed. As such, it stands as one of the best adaptations Big Finish has ever done, whether it be a Doctor Who novel or as part of their Big Finish Classics range.

Knock at the Cabin
So a new M. Night Shyamalan movie has been released and that means that once again the internet will be split. Shyamalan has a reputation for big twists and risks that sometimes pay off and sometimes don’t. He in fact owes me 15 mediocre movies to make up for the existence of Avatar the Last Airbender. Knock at the Cabin did accomplish one of those spots.

Women Talking
Women Talking was a film I knew I had to see, the minute I saw the trailer. I also knew from the trailer that this was going to be a hard one to watch, yet it would be so worth it. This movie will also be on my 2023 list of films despite it being considered for Oscars and having a 2022 release date, it wasn’t widely released until January so I am counting it for 2023. Any story of trauma and abuse is going to be difficult to watch regardless of its rating, but what I truly appreciated about this film is that it was very clearly a story told by women.

Maybe I Do
The first 2023 movie of the year was Maybe I Do, a film we went into thinking that we were going to be watching a rom com. What we ended up watching was a deconstruction of marriage and relationships. Thematically it very much felt like the stage play it was adapted from and that was both good and bad for the film itself. With an iconic cast and the cinematography of a classic rom com, Maybe I Do held so much more for its audience than a meet cute and an act 3 misunderstanding.
