Taco Driver.
Bobby D plays a Mexican food delivery driver whose restaurant delivery service ends up being run under the tyranny of a Deliveroo type company. Bob then gets all mad and lonely because of the ****** up corporate structure and being on a zero hours contract. When they take his car away and replace it with a bicycle he snaps and winds up taking the CEO out with a machine gun hidden in a guitar case in a cycle-by shooting. There's also a political and moral undertone in there somewhere but it can be hard to see at first because it's hidden under a few layers of cheese and jalepeños.
After he takes out the CEO, Bob is all morally conflicted and mentally frigged up, but he sets out to try and rescue a rival Mexican restaurant from joining forces with the delivery conglomerate in an effort to exume the guilt and feelings of entrapment he has been suffering by keeping the restaurants independence. However this is not possible because of the capitalist pigs running things at the top and in the end he gets shot by the owner of the restaurant for not making enough profit and during his final moments he realises he was screwed before he even started and no matter what he did, he could not stop the tide of progress and all his actions had in fact made things worse.
Very well made by Señor Scorsese.
$9.99 plus tip/10.
Taxi Driver is also an excellent, beautiful, seedy, unnerving film that I watched the other day and would highly recommend.

That's where my wife was christened, and took 1st communion.
Thankfully they built a Polish church by the time we married, so I didn't understand a word of the ceremony.

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.
Dark, violent and very funny, with some great performances. I can understand the criticisms - contrived, and doesn’t address the social issues it raises, but I enjoyed it. 8/10

The Swedish original was brill imo.

OMG looks like she's dressed herself for a nice meal and drinks out somewhere or summat for her birthday rather than a rummage through the local tip!
Talk about high maintenance.

A man with a bald head and a wooden leg is invited to a
Xmas fancy dress party
He doesn't know what to wear to hide his head and his wooden
leg, so he writes to a fancy dress company to explain his
problem. A few days later he receives a parcel with a
note
Dear Sir,
Please find enclosed a Pirate's outfit. The spotted
handkerchief will cover your bald head and with your wooden
leg you will be just right as a Pirate.
The man is offended that the outfit emphasizes his disability, so he
writes a letter of complaint.. A week passes and he
receives another parcel and note:
Dear Sir,
Sorry about the previous parcel. Please find enclosed a
monk's habit. The long robe will cover your wooden leg and
with your bald head you will really look the part.
The man is really incandescent with rage now, because the company
has gone from emphasizing his wooden leg to drawing
attention to his bald head. So he writes a really strong
letter of complaint.. A few days later he gets a very small
parcel from the company with the accompanying letter:
Dear Sir,
Please find enclosed a tin of Golden Syrup.
We suggest you pour the tin of Golden Syrup over your bald
head, let it harden, then stick your wooden leg up your arse and go as a toffee apple.

@mozza it's no consolation but I am currently feeling the same pain as you.
The tumour was worse than feared, and I had no choice but to put her down.
Absolutely devastated and heartbroken.
Sleep well Maggie.
