Adding Fifty Candles to the weekend shortlist. I would love a few more spoiler-free pitches in here.
Grainne, that is a good way of choosing. I tend to match the pick to the evening as well.

Fifty Candles is one I am weighing up. This would be a good change of pace from the things currently at the top of my list.
Ciaran, fair point. There is room for something a bit different in the next six.
For anyone considering Fifty Candles: A little more variety in the shortlist is always welcome. Glad this is in the pool.
