One film to rule them all. Yes, that’s right, today marks the release of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey – as if you didn’t know. So it’ll come as no surprise that Peter Jackson‘s latest epic adventure is our ‘Film of the Week’.
But there is another release vying for your precious attention… the romantic comedy Love Is All You Need – for those not remotely interested in anything Middle Earthian.
