Cornelius v Salyu X Salyu
Missed this last year, looks like missing-in-action chimp-lover Cornelius has collaborated on S(o)un(d)beams, an album with singer Salyu (aka Lily Chou-Chou) - first full-length project since 2006's Sensuous? His Twitter feed @corneliusjapan is mostly in Japanese obviously, but it's worth checking the links if you're a fan

Tootsie
Still great 80s drag comedy w Dustin Hoffman scoring a soap job in heels. Bonus: Bill Murray as his flatmate.
Halliwell says: As with Genevieve and Whisky Galore, an unlikely comedy subject makes an instant classic. It's all in the handling.**
