Talvolta per comprendere quanto è oscuro e tetro questo vecchio pazzo mondo, bisogna abbracciarla quell'oscurità. Per poi respingerla o farsi avvolgere in base alle proprie scelte.E' ciò che ha quasi sempre raccontato David Fincher nella sua breve ma intensa filmografia incentrata su racconti incentrati sull'ossessione, la paura e l'ineluttabilità ma non solo.Nel 2008 Fincher cercò di conquistare il grande pubblico per potersi così dedicare a progetti più stimolanti e quindi girò "Il curioso caso di Benjamin Button", film surreale e grazioso con protagonisti Brad Pitt e Cate Blanchett.

Both concern a woman whose fantasy life and self-deception break down and both feature incredible performances by the lead actress: in Streetcar, it's Vivien Leigh and here it's Cate Blanchett.

Másfél órán át hallgattuk Cate Blanchettet nosztalgiázni a Carolról, a Tárról és a 2018-as cannes-i zsűrizésről, miközben a magyar közönségnek is üzen az autokráciák kulturális örökségéről. Nemes Jeles László grandiózus visszatérése Jean Moulin-filmjével azt bizonyítja, hogy két kikosarazás után Cannes újra kíváncsi a magyar rendező különleges vizuális világára.Szó esik James Gray Oscar-esélyesnek tűnő új filmjéről Adam Driverrel és Scarlett Johanssonnal, Javier Bardem fájdalmas apafigurájáról, Quentin Dupieux abszurd apaság-szatírájáról Woody Harrelsonnal és Kristen Stewarttal, valamint a fesztivál legnagyobb WTF-élményéről, egy koreai földönkívülis akcióőrületéről Alicia Vikanderrel és Michael Fassbenderrel — de a legnagyobb lelkesedést végül egy apró francia elsőfilm, a La Gradiva váltja ki belőlünk, amely egyszerre vicces, szívszorító és tele van jövőbeli sztárokkal.Filmek, amikről szó esik az adásban:Moulin (Nemes Jeles László)Paper Tiger (James Gray)The Beloved (Rodrigo Sorogoyen)Garance (Jeanne Herry)Full Phil (Quentin Dupieux)Hope (Na Hong-jin)La Gradiva (Marine Atlan)⁠⁠⁠Itt tudjátok bekövetni a playlistünket⁠⁠⁠⁠, amin azokat a szuper számokat gyűjtjük, amiket az idei cannes-i filmekben hallunk.

We've reached the final curtain call for our Cate Blanchett spotlight here on We Drink & We Watch Things, and we're closing out with the performance that officially turned her into an Oscar winner: Martin Scorsese's 2004 epic, The Aviator. It's the ultimate meta-cinematic challenge - one of the greatest modern actresses stepping into the sensible shoes of the greatest Golden Age actress, Katharine Hepburn. Mix yourself something classic and sophisticated - perhaps a Howard's Punch by Mackenzie - and let's head to the golf course.This week, we examine the sheer audacity of Cate's "impersonation-turned-performance," looking at how she mastered that iconic, rapid-fire New England lockjaw and the athletic, "don't-fence-me-in" energy that defined Hepburn. We break down her electric chemistry with Leonardo DiCaprio's Howard Hughes, specifically that brilliantly uncomfortable family dinner at the Hepburn estate where two different worlds of American aristocracy collide. We also discuss the film's stunning visual evolution, as Scorsese uses "two-strip" and "three-strip" Technicolor effects to mirror the era, and how Cate manages to shine through the stylized, vibrant hues as a woman who was "too much" for any one man to hold onto.If you love the glamour of Old Hollywood, the technical precision of a master at work, or just want to hear us debate if anyone else could have pulled off "Hot Dawg!" with such conviction, this is the perfect finale. We're blending our awe for her first Academy Award-winning turn with our usual casual banter, making this a truly legendary conclusion to our first Actress Month run.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming up.

Le Talentueux Mr Ripley, The Talented Mr Ripley, est un film dʹAnthony Minghella, sorti en 1999. Anthony Minghella est un réalisateur fort sympathique qui vient de faire un carton avec son film précédent le Patient Anglais. En 1999, il revient sur le devant de la scène avec lʹadaptation du roman Monsieur Ripley de Patricia Highsmith publié en 1955. Déjà adapté en 1960 par René Clément, sous le titre Plein Soleil avec Alain Delon, lʹadaptation dʹAnthony Minghella est légèrement différente, moins noire et plus existentialiste peut-être. Mais son adaptation est remarquée autant que remarquable mettant en lumière à nouveau le roman indémodable de Patricia Highsmith. À lʹécran, des jeunes comédiennes et comédiens aussi talentueux que le titre du film : jʹai nommé Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett, Jude Law et Philip Seymour Hoffman. Lʹhistoire est celle de Tom Ripley qui par un concours de circonstance est envoyé en Italie pour aller rechercher un fils à papa noceur, cynique et millionnaire, Dickie, et le ramener sur le droit chemin, cʹest-à-dire en Amérique. Mais Dickie coule la belle vie en Italie, cette fameuse Dolce Vita que lʹon voit dans les films de Fellini et nʹentend pas rentrer au bercail. Et Ripley non plus dʹailleurs qui commence à beaucoup, beaucoup, beaucoup aimer la vie de Dickie au point de prendre sa place. Il y a lʹesprit de Scott Fitzgerald qui plane sur le film avec des jeunes gens trop beau, un peu trop riches, un peu ambivalent sexuellement. Minghella capture lʹItalie, la lumière, le jazz des années 50, mais également la noirceur dʹun homme prêt à tout pour être aimé, en quête de sa propre identité. Le talentueux Mr Ripley est un drame qui sʹinscrit dès le départ dans une gaité factice. Il nʹy a pas de rédemption, juste une noirceur qui engloutit tous les personnages.

Cate Blanchett Month reaches its crescendo this week on We Drink & We Watch Things with the film that many consider the definitive performance of Cate Blanchett's legendary career: Todd Field's 2022 psychological powerhouse, Tár. This isn't just a character study; it's a clinical, chilling, and deeply immersive descent into the architecture of power and the erosion of a soul. Pour yourself something precise and sophisticated - Mackenzie's Reputation Reviver OR Tártini, perhaps - as we take our seats for a masterclass in controlled chaos.This week, we analyze the sheer physicality of Cate's transformation into Lydia Tár, from the authoritative sweep of her conducting baton to the sharp, tailored suits that act as her armor. We examine the film's haunting ambiguity, looking at how it uses a world of high-culture prestige to explore very modern questions about "cancel culture," the separation of the artist from the art, and the ghosts - literal or metaphorical - that haunt those at the top. We talk through the grueling intensity of the Juilliard masterclass sequence, the unsettling sound design that mirrors Lydia's unraveling, and why this performance feels like the ultimate culmination of everything Cate has been building toward since Elizabeth.If you love intellectual thrillers, complex anti-heroes, or just want to hear us marvel at an actress operating at the absolute peak of her powers, this is the episode you've been waiting for. We're blending our deep respect for the film's precision with our usual casual banter, making this a truly symphonic highlight of our Cate Blanchett Month journey.

It's time to pour yourself a drink that's as bold and dangerous as our guest of honor - Lemar's Hella Fire, perhaps - as we head to Asgard to meet the sister Thor and Loki never knew they had.This week, we celebrate Cate's turn as Hela, the Goddess of Death, and how she managed to create one of the most charismatic and genuinely threatening villains in the entire MCU. We examine her incredible physical presence - from the effortless way she catches Mjolnir to the iconic antlered headgear - and talk through how much fun she clearly had playing a character who is unapologetically powerful and bored by everyone else's rules. We also highlight the film's shift toward improvisational comedy, the vibrant "Jack Kirby" visual style, and why Hela stands out as a masterclass in how to bring gravitas and theatrical flair to a superhero blockbuster. And why we want more of her!If you love a villain who steals every scene they're in, or if you just want to hear us gush about Cate's ability to command an entire army with just a flick of her wrist, this is the episode for you.

Cate Blanchett Month continues as we shift gears from the throne rooms of England to the open roads of the American West with the 2001 crime-comedy, Bandits. This week, we're looking at a completely different side of Cate Blanchett - trading the white lead makeup for a messy red wig and a kitchen-sink existential crisis. Grab a drink- maybe try this week's Split Decision cocktail - as we join the "Sleepover Bandits" on a heist that's less about the money and more about the company.This week, we celebrate Cate's surprising comedic timing as Kate Wheeler, the neglected housewife who accidentally hijacks a bank robbery and ends up in a "permanently temporary" love triangle with Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton. We examine her frantic, high-wire energy - especially that iconic kitchen dance to "I Need a Hero" - and analyze how she holds her own against two massive leading men, effectively becoming the heart and the brains of the operation. It's a discussion about the chemistry of an unlikely trio, whether or not Lemar would like this more if he'd seen it when it came out, and why this role proved that Cate could master the "messy American" just as easily as the British monarch.If you love a good road movie, a smart caper, or just want to hear us debate how this one holds up, this is the episode for you.

Welcome to April, and we are rolling out the red carpet for our first-ever Actress Month! We're kicking things off with a deep dive into the filmography of the incomparable Cate Blanchett, beginning with the 1998 breakout that turned her into Hollywood royalty: Elizabeth. Pour yourself a glass of something regal - perhaps Mackenzie's cocktail this week, The Red Fox - as we travel back to a 16th-century England filled with shadows, whispers, and a young woman forced to trade her heart for a crown.This week, we trace the transformation of Elizabeth from a vibrant, romantic girl into the formidable, white-masked "Virgin Queen" who ruled with an iron fist. We marvel at Blanchett's ability to command the screen with just a flicker of her eyes, capturing the terrifying transition from vulnerability to cold, calculated power. We also examine Shekhar Kapur's visceral, thriller-like direction, the lush but claustrophobic costume design, and the standout supporting turns from Geoffrey Rush and Joseph Fiennes. It's a conversation about the high cost of leadership, the erasure of the self for the sake of the state, and the exact moment we all realized a legendary talent had arrived.If you love historical dramas that feel more like political horror, or if you've always wanted to know why this performance is considered the gold standard for period acting, this is the episode for you.

With International Day of Transgender Visibility being celebrated on March 31, we took the opportunity to spotlight ‘Homebodies’, a brand new digital series that is streaming now on SBS on Demand that highlights local trans and queer talent on screen and behind the scenes including its creator AP Pobjoy. Fresh from its selection for this year's prestigious Series Mania in France, ‘Homebodies’ stars Claudia Karvan, Luke Wiltshire and Jazi Hall, and follows Darcy, a trans man who reluctantly returns to his regional hometown to care for his estranged mother Nora. But home isn't as he left it. Nora has been living with a secret housemate: Dee, the teenage ghost of Darcy's pre-transition self. As old wounds resurface, Darcy must confront the parts of himself he tried to leave behind or risk losing himself entirely. The creator, lead-writer and one of the directors of the series is AP Pobjoy, a Sydney based creative who was in Lille, France when we spoke for Series Mania where ‘Homebodies’ had its world premiere. We discussed how they got into filmmaking, the importance of trans representation on our screens and much more. We also reviewed the latest film from indie American film director and musician Jim Jarmusch. ‘Father Mother Sister Brother’ is constructed in the form of a triptych and includes a beautiful performance from Indya Moore along with a cast that includes Cate Blanchett, Charlotte Rampling, Tom Waits and Adam Driver. The three stories all concern the relationships between adult children, their somewhat distant parent (or parents), and each other. Each of the three chapters takes place in the present, and each in a different country. The film is described as a series of character studies, quiet, observational and non-judgmental – a comedy, but interwoven with threads of melancholy and is in Australian cinemas from April 2nd. The post Homebodies with special guest AP Pobjoy plus Father Mother Sister Brother review appeared first on Out Takes.

The Shameless Plug is never late. Nor is it early. It arrives precisely when it means to, roughly halfway through the on-sale cycle of the latest issue of Empire. To which, after all, this show is dedicated to shamelessly plugging. And once again, the Fellowship of the Plug — Chris Hewitt and Empire editor, Nick de Semlyen — have assembled in the Podmines of Moria for that plugging. You have Nick's microphone, and Chris' copy of Adobe Audition, and if the deluge of Lord Of The Rings references hadn't already clued you in, the duo are here to talk about issue 450 of Empire, which is dedicated to celebrating 25 years of The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Rings. Nick regales us all with tales of reuniting the four Hobbits and Sir Ian McKellen, virtually collecting the rest of the Fellowship, plus Cate Blanchett, Liv Tyler, Peter Jackson, Philippa Boyens, and getting Andy Serkis to write a piece for us. It's not all LOTR, with tales of Raimi-wrangling, a bit of Gore, and a Gollum impression you will never be able to unhear. Simples. Enjoy!

Last week Lucasfilm announced that Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down from her role as studio president, a position she has held since Disney's 2012 acquisition. Succeeding her are George Lucas' protégé and Ahsoka creator Dave Filoni, who will oversee the franchise's creative direction as co-president alongside former Lucasfilm General Manager Lynwen Brennan handling the business side of things. Kennedy still has an active hand as an executive producer of both Star War's next theatrical offerings: May's The Mandalorian & Grogu as well as 2027's Starfighter and will continue to produce other projects independently. Kennedy's tenure saw its fair share of highs and lows, especially contending with an often fickle fandom, but with multibillion dollar films under her belt her exit marks the end of an era.It was a surprisingly noteworthy MLK weekend box office– outside of Avatar: Fire & Ash's continuing reign, Marty Supreme became A24's top-performing film of all time with 80 million dollars domestically, surpassing Everything Everywhere All at Once, while Zootopia 2 became the highest-grossing animated film of all time globally with over 1.7 billion dollars, passing Inside Out 2. Meanwhile, Nia DaCosta's 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple opened below expectations with just 15 million dollars over the four-day weekend, falling well short of the 30-million-dollar debut of its predecessor and behind tracking projections of 20 million dollars. Despite the horror sequel's muted debut, it's been an unusually robust box office this January.Netflix has revised its $83 billion dollar deal for Warner Bros. Discovery to an all-cash transaction valued at $27.75 dollars per share, simplifying the structure to provide greater certainty of value for shareholders and accelerate the path to a shareholder vote by April. The amended deal, unanimously approved by both boards, maintains the same per-share valuation while WBD stockholders will still receive additional value from shares of Discovery Global following its spinoff, with Netflix financing the deal through cash on hand, credit facilities and committed financing. This update comes on the heels of Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos' renewed promise to keep WB studio films in theaters for at least 45 days before hitting streaming.Prime Video has released a first look photo of Sophie Turner as Lara Croft in the upcoming Tomb Raider series, which has begun production.Hans Zimmer, who has scored more than 500 movies and TV projects, will officially score the upcoming Harry Potter series for HBO Max in partnership with Bleeding Fingers Music, a composer collective that he co-founded.Sons of Anarchy star Ryan Hurst has been cast as main character Kratos in Amazon's upcoming God of War series, which is currently confirmed for two seasons and has begun pre-production. Teresa Palmer was also cast last week and will play Sif, Thor's wife and the goddess of family.Cate Blanchett has signed a deal to reprise her role as Viking warrior Valka in Universal Pictures' live-action How to Train Your Dragon 2.Warner Bros. has set Jorge R.
