Jojo Rabbit - FilmFour - 9pm
Our pick of the movies on TV tonight is Taika Waititi's 2019 comedy drama about a member of the Hitler Youth who finds out his mother is hiding a Jewish girl in their house. Filled with satire, off-the-wall humour and a big chunk of heart, we couldn't recommend it enough.

Roman Griffin Davis stars alongside Scarlett Johansson, Thomasin McKenzie and Waititi himself as an imaginary version of Hitler.

It was nominated for two Golden Globes: Best Supporting Actor – Motion Picture (Paul Dano) and Best Original Song ("One Kind of Love")
