From christianity to croquet, globetrotting to grandchildren, teen angst to telemarketing, immigration to emigration, the complex science of high finance to the simple facts of family life: here you will find all the really big questions... and maybe one or two of the answers if you're lucky!
The Bettany Family
We've always been a big family... and we're still growing!
With six boys and one girl, mum and dad have always had their work cut out for them. But now they've got a son-in-law to contend with, 3 daughters-in-law, and 7 grandchildren carrying the flag for the next generation! Ye gods! How will they ever find time to practice their croquet?

I went to see this film this week and I have to say, it may very well be film of the year. It is definitely a contender with Star Trek for top spot!
Although its low budget, never does this hinder it in any way. The fact that District 9 is set in S. Africa, creates an interesting dimension. The Aliens are treated with contempt and avoided; echoing the years of segregation during apartheid - and the continued underlying tensions today.
The South African accent gives a comical air to the film, whether sought or unsought. There is some really cool Alien technology to be wowed at to boot. Overall, very enjoyable and well worth watching!
