When you are writing a review do you prefer to do it in silence or do you have music/the tv running in the background.   I write movie reviews for fun on my blog and I find that I can’t really concentrate if there is any music or sound in the background.   PS loving Chris’ advice corner and the theme song is just a sweet sweet bonus.   Regards"   All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.
