“We have more access to more restorations than ever before,” said American Genre Film Archive (AGFA) theatrical sales director Bret Berg during his opening remarks. “More places are showing repertory than ever before. There's a new audience, regardless of age or demographics. We have to use that to our advantage.”
Wilson's film, which premiered in 2024 at the Toronto International Film Festival, has been in legal limbo since before it ever showed in North America, when Wilson posted a video to her Instagram Story accusing her producers of trying to block the premiere of the film at TIFF. Since then, there has been a whole wave of lawsuits against Wilson from her producers and the star of her movie, which, again, you will be able to see in the United States soon enough, even if none of these people have resolved these issues.
“They're less about me than about the character,” Swann Arlaud told IndieWire, smiling about the fancams and edits that turned the Parisian character actor into an unlikely sex symbol for the Letterboxd set. “I think people responded to a different kind of masculinity, someone in service to a woman, a kind of devoted lover. So I don't really feel responsible for what it triggered.”
Pennington, who played Moff Jerjerrod in Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, died on Sunday (10 May). No cause of death was given. Born in Cambridge in 1942, Pennington found a passion for the stage as a member of the National Youth Theatre. Studying at Cambridge University, he appeared in 30 undergraduate plays and made his debut as Shakespeare's Hamlet.
If a film could be a vine and the dialogue the fruit, would hang heavy with delicious diction and succinct, unforgettable themes. In other ways, it's harder to tell: Is God Is hardly feels like the work of a first-time director, if only because Harris approaches every beat with an astonishing confidence and coolness. One could see Tarantino's Kill Bill in her stylistic flourishes, the righteous, long-festering fury in her heroines. The bones of Greek tragedy are resurrected here, too - but the fact that they're here to serve an ensemble of justifiably angry Black women turns a straightforward revenge story into the most surprising thriller of the year.
Since its late-March release, Project Hail Mary has purely been a theatrical experience, bringing audiences to the cinema - and, for a lucky few, the IMAX theater - to see the saga on the big screen. That's about to change as the movie gears up for a home digital release, meaning you'll be able to watch Ryland Grace try to save the world from the comfort of your own home.
Two Miami sheriff's deputies have filed a lawsuit against Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, claiming the Hollywood actors' portrayal in a Netflix crime drama makes them look like dirty cops.

The movie follows "Maitreya (Anderson), a rising star in the New Age Healing community who is about to head off to a conference in India when she receives a call from her estranged sister, Monica: their father is dying. Rather than stay home with him, Maitreya decides to bring her entire family-including her mother, Barbara (Harry)-to the conference and put her New Age healing theories to the test (all while surreptitiously gathering material for her next book)."
Cher is an undeniable powerhouse with a record-breaking career spanning more than seven decades in entertainment. But before she was known worldwide as she was Cherilyn Sarkisian LaPiere-an aspiring performer with stage fright, eager to break into Hollywood. Born in 1946, the El Centro, California-native was raised primarily by her mother Georgia Holt, a model and actor.
No one, including her, knows quite what to say, but everyone (including her parents and two brothers) tries their best to put on a brave and polite face. It is her mother, Gill (Charlotte Bradley), who keeps asking questions and commenting on how pale Hannah looks now that she's a vegetarian.
The Ashland Independent Film Festival celebrated its 25 th anniversary late last month, a nice round number to celebrate and a good excuse to take stock of the way the event has rebounded from tumultuous times. Those tumults, as were so many endured by film fests and other arts organizations, derived largely (but not entirely) from the coronavirus pandemic and associated lockdowns, and AIFF's future was, at times, seriously in doubt.
“Maybe we could become each other, like something out of a Jacques Rivette movie or something,” she sings, referencing the French New Wave director. “I wonder if I just want you as my best friend, or if I'm just a really late bloomer.” Later, she touches on her own sexuality, noting: “Now I'm wondering if maybe I could be gay, but come on, look at me, I'm probably not. I've always wondered if you were actually gay, or if that's something you just say for your career.”
For queer people, this tends to be a bittersweet experience. While we all develop our first serious crushes around the same time in adolescence, society has made it harder for us to openly lean into them, or even express them out loud. Without a supportive environment, teen crushes can become more confusing, painful, and filled with shame; sometimes even dangerous.
I remember I was putting together, like, how can I succinctly illustrate the beginnings of a World War Three type situation? And in all the research I was doing, it was like, That's the one big thing, the Strait of Hormuz. If there was a blockade, it's this very sensitive area, this sort of Achilles heel, in the sense of global security and access to oil, and how everything could sort of explode.
Actress Beanie Feldstein announced she's pregnant on Monday and is expecting a baby with her wife, British producer Bonnie-Chance Roberts. The couple announced the news in a collaborative post on Instagram, writing, "Limited Edition Scouse Beanie Baby coming soon!!" The post was accompanied by photos of the excited couple, along with a white cake with pink robbons tied around the edges.
“When I first heard about it, I was like, 'Come on, what?'” Louis-Dreyfus, who plays “the smartest sheep,” Lily, admitted. “And then I read the script, and I completely fell in love and knew this was a project I had to be a part of just based on the material itself.”
There's one image from Billie Eilish - Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D) that goes a long way towards defining the concert movie's entire soul: The 10-time Grammy-winning star double-fisting a microphone and a handheld 3D camera. Bouncing across the stage, she points the lens at herself with glee before flipping it back around at her audience. It's her music, her performance, her movie, her face on the screen. She is in complete control. It genuinely seems that, to borrow a phrase, she's happier than ever.
Pawel Pawlikowski's new film is another exploration of the early Cold War period. It's framed as a road movie undertaken by Thomas Mann (played by Hanns Zischler) and his daughter Erika (Sandra Huller), as they travel in a Buick from Frankfurt in West Germany to Weimar in East Germany, in 1949.
Barrera inevitably gets into the Ghostface in the room, though, talking about the despair she felt after abruptly going from rising star to persona non grata after her criticisms of Israel's reactions to the attacks were conflated with 'hate speech.' She notes that director Boots Riley was the first major filmmaker to reach out to her after her sojourn in the wilderness, offering her a part in his upcoming film.
Grete (Luna Wedler), an aspiring botanist who, in 1908, becomes the first woman admitted to Marburg University, in Germany—an honor granted, begrudgingly, by an all-male panel of professors. Then again, the protagonist might be Hannes (Enzo Brumm), a former farm boy studying at the same school in 1972. His is a more enlightened era, but Hannes, lonely and withdrawn, doesn't share his classmates' interest in campus sit-ins and free love.
In STRANGER THAN HEAVEN , the late and legendary actor Bunta Sugawara appears. SEGA received formal consent from his family, and, with materials provided by Toei Company, Ltd.-which produced many of Mr. Sugawara's films, including the Battles Without Honor and Humanity series-RGG Studio crafted his CG character design based on archival footage and photographs from the time.
In Hocus Pocus 2, teens Becca, Cassie, and Izzy accidentally bring the Sanderson sisters back to modern-day Salem 29 years after Max last lit the Black Flame Candle. The sisters immediately start causing chaos, as they're known to do, leaving the trio of friends to stop them before they curse the entire town.
When asked if she considers the people who agreed to do the movie after she was fired to be 'scabs' who 'crossed the picket line' in protesting the war in Palestine, Barrera responded: 'Oh, one hundred percent. I think they all are. And they have to live with that.'
The story follows a young, bedridden girl who agrees to remotely control a genetically engineered 15-year-old girl and use it to influence the masses in a dystopian world where advertising is illegal. Thatcher will star as Philadelphia "P." Burke, the controller, and Delphi, her "puppet."
Some of these reviews are cracking me up. It's clear they have never played the game and have no idea what the fans want or ANY of the rules/ canon of Mortal Kombat. One reviewer was mad that a guy 'had a laser eye!' Why the fuck do we still allow people that don't have any love for the genre review these movies! Baffling.
So why does The Devil Wears Prada 2, a follow-up far better than one might imagine for a 20-years-later "let's get the gang back together" escapade, also insist on including the most criminally tedious heterosexual male to ever appear in a mainstream movie?
It was very much a stand-alone film with the aim of giving Kevin Costner's version a good kicking if we could, says Irvin, now 85. The studio wanted to go immediately because they wanted to pre-empt the Costner.
Bettany, who plays Salieri with the kind of simmering resentment that could curdle wine, pointed out that the original stage play mostly lived inside Salieri's head. 'The play is very much from Salieri's point of view,' he says, before explaining how the series opens things up to show 'what the burden of genius was on Mozart.'
In the new teaser, Elle Woods seems to be exactly what you expected before going to Harvard: bubbly, popular, and slightly spoiled, as seen by her birthday party, which looked extra enough to be featured on MTV's My Super Sweet 16.
The film tells the story of the massive rise, very slight fall, and then further massive rise of Iron Maiden, whose colossal success was achieved without kowtowing to the smirking media gatekeepers of cool.
The auction fuels the foundation's work to expand access to evidence-based care and confront stigma. It is one more way we ensure that no one has to fight this disease alone.
