Today's idea - Four Lions
Tonight we recommend Four Lions directed by Chris Morris of Brass Eye and Nathan Barley fame in his first film. As the latest British political comedy that's as "tasteless as it is timely" it's also written by Peep Show's writing team of Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong - can it be anything but brilliant?
"Following four Islamic terrorists from the north of England, Morris's film depicts the transition of a group of young Muslim men from boisterous radicals to would-be suicide bombers.
This being Chris Morris, the jokes are razor-sharp and wryly tongue-in-cheek, as two of the men embark on an ultimately calamitous covert mission to Pakistan to train as bombers, while the other two recruit a fifth member and go about plotting their own martyrdom."
