The opening night of the new Premier League season contained tearful tributes, high drama, allegations of racist abuse and another reminder that, when it comes to indefatigable spirit and the will-to-win, Liverpool have few rivals.Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo, who reported being racially abused by a Liverpool fan during the first half at Anfield, appeared to have delivered a point for Andoni Iraoli’s side when hauling the visitors back from two goals down.

Madsen cameos as a stuntman visiting a smalltown movie theatre on its last day before closing down in this amiable, bittersweet story for cinephilesThe late Michael Madsen makes his final, posthumous appearance as a boozy stuntman called Rex Fuel in this laidback ensemble film from feature first-timer Mas Bouzidi, a piece of moviegoing melancholy developed from the director’s short of the same title. Bouzidi gives us the time-honoured scenario of a smalltown movie theatre’s last day before closing down, resonantly named the Royal Alamo and showing for its last stand a couple of films on 35mm.
