dimity_blueBernard and the Genie is one of those hard to find gems that too few people know about.
It's a Christmas film, and stars Alan Cumming as Bernard Bottle, who's dismayed to find himself underservedly fired by his evil boss (Rowan Atkinson) just before Christmas. To make things worse, his fiancee and best friend are having an affair, and Bernard finds himself sitting alone in his almost empty flat. The only thing he has left is last year's Christmas gift from his now ex-fiancee: A lamp.
Fortunately for him, it contains Lenny Henry, a genie who's been stuck in that lamp for 2,000 years.
If you need cheering up, go watch it. Heck, go watch it anyway. :oD
