The long weekend approaches.

But we aren't there quite yet. Let us find comfort in an old reliable; the list of intriguing movies on the television on this evening, Thursday 2 May... The Wolverine - Film 4 - 9pm In which the main man goes to Japan for a more serious adventure that ultimately winds up being a bit silly. Still, it laid the groundwork for Logan nicely, and has aged well because of it. The Fugitive - TCM - 9pm Harrison Ford goes on the run in a '90s thriller that has been often parodied and duplicated, but remains a winningly tense tale. The Lost Boys - Comedy Central - 9pm One thing about living in Santa Carla I never could stomach - all the damn vampires. Unforgiven - TCM - 11.40pm Exceptional slow-burning Western that placed Clint Eastwood in front and behind the camera with equally excellent results. Captain Fantastic - BBC Two - 12.05am When tragedy strikes, Viggo Mortensen is forced to transplant his family from a life in the wild to more conventional society.
