Have you heard Rob Dickinson's solo album? There's some nice tracks on it. "The End of the World' is beautiful.

Nice to see another fan of a sadly underappreciated band.
Rob Dickinson (the lead singer) said it's 'Cloud Cuckoo Land', and the lyrics sheet also has that.

The New Mutants. It was filmed in 2017, to be released in 2018. It was delayed multiple times and was finally dumped out in 2020 to die (and it did indeed bomb).

The person she's playing was born and raised in London, so that won't be an issue.

Reply to Cynthia Rothrock was the best Martial Arts female movie star and yet she almost never gets any credit by Lili_Danube
The best? No. Michelle Yeoh far better.
That said, Cynthia Rothrock is up there, and deserves far more recognition.
