Each year one of the highlights of the French calendar in Australia is the Alliance Française French Film Festival which commences with the gala opening night of the 36th festival at Melbourne's Astor Theatre on March 5th. But it is not only here in Oz that French film is popular. 2024 was a record breaking year for attendance at the cinema in France, with a higher percentage of the population going to see a film there than in the US. I loved chatting to the fabulous people at the Alliance Française who are responsible for putting together the festival this year:Frédéric Alliod - AFFFF25 CEO & Artistic DirectorMarie-Hélène Predhom - Alliance Française Melbourne General ManagerSara Harrington - Alliance Française Event ManagerFrench cinema is so much more than a cliché... it's quirky, fun & intelligent.

Simon Morris wonders if genre is always a good guide to a movie's quality. Just because you usually like that sort of film. Horizon: An American saga - Chapter 1 is a typically epic Kevin Costner (Dances with wolves) western - at three hours it's not even halfway finished apparently. Written, produced and directed by Costner, it also features Abbey Lee (Mad Max: Fury Road), Sienna Miller (American sniper) and Sam Worthington (Avatar). Longlegs is a hugely popular, serial killer horror film. A sensation on social media, it's reignited the career of Nicolas Cage as the titular villain - with a voice inspired by his mother! Also stars Blair Underwood (TV's Elsbeth) and Maika Monroe (It follows). And from the French Film Festival, Divertimento, based on a real-life young woman from the Parisian projects who became one of France's great woman conductors. "Divertimento" is the name of Zahia Ziousani's own orchestra.
