My mother, who was in England then but was from Moruga, had not married my father. She brought me back to Trinidad when I was one year old in 1966. And I’ve been here since, apart from trips away and some jobs. I met my dad when I went back to England when I was 25. He told me I was conceived on Friday November 23 1963 because, the next morning, he heard John F Kennedy had been assassinated.

On what might be the best day for film choice on cable/DirecTV, ever, all but one of the Also Rans categories have a bolded film – and there’s a Western – one of the best – in the top three! And each of the three choices could legitimately be called BEST FILM OF THE DAY. Today’s Number One Film:
