On Tuesday 15th April, London Mums Magazine was invited to an exclusive preview of the highly anticipated new film Sinners, starring Michael B. Jordan and directed by Ryan Coogler. From the opening scene, this hauntingly atmospheric story gripped me entirely.

Looking for the perfect family film over the Easter holidays? The Penguin Lessons is a delightful, heartwarming treat for both kids and grown-ups – a gentle reminder that sometimes the most unexpected friendships can change your life… even if they come wearing a tuxedo.
Based on the bestselling memoirs of Tom Michell, The Penguin Lessons tells the true story of a young English teacher working in Argentina in the 1970s who rescues a penguin stranded on a Uruguayan beach, drenched in oil from a nearby spill. He cleans up the bird, names him Juan Salvador (yes, after the hippy-dippy Jonathan Livingston Seagull), and tries to send him back to the sea. But Juan Salvador (the double name is a thing. You cannot call him just Juan) has other plans – he follows Tom home and promptly becomes the most charming uninvited house guest in cinematic history.
