Starring Nathan Stewart-Jarrett(Culprits, Azrael) & George MacKay(1917, Captain Fantastic) as Jules and Preston. Jules does drag as her alter ego Aphrodite.

"Rose Of Nevada" is a 2025 British science fiction drama film written, edited, composed, and directed by Mark Jenkin. Starring George MacKay, Callum Turner, and Francis Magee, the film tells the story of a fishing vessel that was lost at sea 30 years ago and mysteriously reappears in the harbor of a fishing village. The film had its world premiere in the Orizzonti section of the 82nd Venice International Film Festival and received positive reviews for its 16mm cinematography, sound work, performances, and intellectual and haunting concept. Jenkin and MacKay were both kind enough to spend some time talking with us about their work and experience making the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in New York and Los Angeles theaters from 1-2 Special. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

This week we're excited to present a conversation from the 63rd New York Film Festival with Rose of Nevada director Mark Jenkin and actress Mary Woodvine, moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. Rose of Nevada opens at Film at Lincoln Center on June 19 with select screenings on 35mm and featuring in-person Q&As opening weekend. View full screening schedule and secure tickets at filmlinc.org/nevada The singular Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkin brings his distinctive and bold storytelling approach to his most expansive work yet. Again immersing the viewer in the uncanny environments of the small towns along the coast of Cornwall, Jenkin spins a sci-fi-tinged tale of dislocation and regeneration. In a tiny, sparsely populated fishing village, a boat that had been lost at sea 30 years ago, the Rose of Nevada, suddenly reappears portside, fully intact and without its long-missing crew. Two local neophyte fishermen desperate for work (played by George MacKay and Callum Turner) take jobs on the boat as it sets out for a good-luck return voyage. When they return, all is no longer what it once was. Shot on 16mm, this earthy, psychological portrait of a working-class community's cyclical existence is an atmospheric plunge into the eerie. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

This week's Empire Podcast is the kind of episode that could leave other film podcasts in its wake. Mainly because there's a lot of discussion of ships, boats, the high seas and the like. First off, our guests this week are Callum Turner and George Mackay, the British actors who star in Mark Jenkin's latest movie, the fisherman-themed Rose Of Nevada, which is out now, and in a cracking chat with Alex Godfrey, they talk about how they first met, working with the unique Jenkin, and more. Either side of that, Chris Hewitt returns to the host chair after two weeks away, some of which was spent on a cruise ship, and he scrapes the barnacles off long enough to welcome Helen O'Hara (or is it?) and James Dyer into the podbooth to discuss the best ship-related scenes, have a look at the week's movie news, try to convince James of the merits of the Jackass movies, and review the likes of The Devil Wears Prada 2, Rose Of Nevada (with help from an unexpected quarter), Greenland 2: Migration, and new Adam Scott horror, Hokum. You best start believing in Empire Podcasts, Ms Swann... YER IN ONE! Enjoy.

Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast.

His new film, Rose of Nevada, starring George MacKay, Callum Turner and Mary Woodvine, is in UK cinemas from 24 April 2026.  Mark has chosen Punishment Park (89 mins), the pseudo-documentary film from 1971 directed by Peter Watkins.  Sam and Mark discuss making Rose of Nevada, Mark's multiple roles on his films, and how Punishment Park is still resonant today.  Listen to Mark's previous pod appearance where he picked The Shout.   Thank you for downloading.

Hope Hopkinson talks to writer-director Mark Jenkin about his new film, Rose of Nevada, starring George MacKay and Callum Turner.  ‘A Cornish modern classic. Eerie, heart-breaking, wonderful.' — Mark Kermode   When a fishing boat, the Rose of Nevada, lost with all hands 30 years ago, mysteriously reappears in the old harbour of a forgotten Cornish village, for those who remember, it's surely a sign.  The boat must go out to sea again and maybe then the luck of the devastated village will turn. Young father Nick (George MacKay) and enigmatic newcomer Liam (Callum Turner) join captain Murgey (Francis Magee), and they head to sea.   But when they return, satisfied with their haul, something is amiss — they've slipped back in time, and the villagers greet them as if they are the original crew.   Rose of Nevada is Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkin's hotly anticipated and critically acclaimed follow-up to his BAFTA-award-winning first feature Bait (2019) and Enys Men (2022). Unique among British feature filmmakers for the analogue way in which he crafts his films, Jenkin once again serves as writer, director, director of photography, editor, sound designer and score composer.

A new biopic chronicles one of the 20th century's biggest and most controversial music icons, but appears not to paint the whole picture about his life. We discuss Antoine Fuqua's Michael, which stars the pop legend Michael Jackson's nephew Jaafar in the lead role. Stand and Deliver is a National Theatre of Scotland production which tells the story of a legendary industrial dispute. In 1981, workers at a Lee Jeans factory in Greenock, barricaded themselves inside for seven months in a protest against the proposed closure of the factory and the loss of 240 jobs. We hear from the play's writer, Frances Poet, and journalist Paul English, whose writing about the women's stories inspired the production. Director Mark Jenkin tells us about his unique approach to filmmaking, using a clockwork camera and recording sound months after the initial shoot, and about his latest film Rose of Nevada, a mysterious tale of a long-lost fishing boat which returns to a Cornish port decades after disappearing, which stars Callum Turner and George Mackay.Presenter: Kirsty Wark Producer: Mark Crossan

During this year's Glasgow Film Festival, we caught up with Cornish filmmaking don Mark Jenkin to discuss his excellent new feature Rose of Nevada, an intriguing time-loop puzzle starring George Mackay and Callum Turner as two young men who find themselves in a time warp when they volunteer to help crew the eponymous fishing boat.  Rose of Nevada is released 24 April by the BFI and Jenkin is currently on a Q&A tour with the film, which includes a stop in Edinburgh at the Cameo on 21 April.

In Part 2, we continue in the footsteps of the cultured Austrian traveler Adolf Fischer on his 1898 journey in Japanese-ruled Taiwan. From the commercial enclave of Tōa-tiū-tiâⁿ (Dadaocheng), we cruise downriver to Tamsui (Danshui), meet the famed missionary George Mackay, hear warnings about rebels in the nearby hills, and solve a crocodile mystery. After overcoming Japanese suspicions that he might be a spy for the German Kaiser, Fischer heads south to Shinchiku (Hsinchu). Drawing on his 1900 book, “Wanderings Through Formosa,” we get sharp, sometimes surprising observations about the early years of Japanese rule. (The book was specially translated from into English for Formosa Files, and we enjoyed it so much that we had to make it a three-parter).

Muchas películas rezagadas de la pasada temporada aprovechan estas semanas de primavera para buscar su sitio en la cartelera. Es el caso de 'The End', un musical apocalíptico con Tilda Swinton y George Mackay que compitió en el pasado Festival de San Sebastián. Por allí también pasó el incansable Costa-Gavras con 'El último suspiro', un drama sobre la muerte digna y los cuidados paliativos. De Hollywood llegan propuestas como 'El contable 2' o películas de terror, y el cine español trae dos interesantes óperas primas, 'La isla de los faisanes', sobre la situación de los inmigrantes en la frontera de Euskadi y Francia, y 'Todo lo que no sé', un retrato de una treintañera frustrada entre el trabajo y los cuidados. En televisión, recibimos a Blanca Martínez y Carlos González por el estreno de 'Mariliendre'.

Sergio Pérez entrevista en el Festival de San Sebastián al director y protagonista e esta historia postapocalíptica de una familia en un búnker.

This episode features a conversation with film director, Joshua Oppenheimer. It was recorded in March 2025.Joshua gained notoriety through his documentaries The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence, which, amongst their many accolades, gained him Academy Award and BAFTA nominations. In fact, back in 2012, it was his extraordinarily beautiful and bizarre film, The Act of Killing, which follows former Indonesian death-squad leaders in reenacting their mass-killings through cinematic set pieces and lavish musical numbers, that put Joshua on my radar. The Guardian called it “The most compelling thing you'll ever see.” I tend to agree. His latest film, entitled The End, hit cinemas in the UK and Germany last week.The End stars Tilda Swinton, Michael Shannon, and George MacKay, as a wealthy family living isolated lives in a luxurious bunker, two decades after an environmental catastrophe renders Earth's surface uninhabitable. But this isn't your run-of-the-mill, seen-it-before disaster take, The End is a genre-bending tale that urges us to reconsider the illusions we hold about the fate of our planet and, perhaps crucially, our role in shaping that fate. Amongst other things, Joshua and I discussed The End, why we often find living in lies a more comforting situation than facing reality, and the need to challenge the silence and the self-deception that is all around us when it comes to climate.Additional links: The End is out now in Germany and the UK.

We start on a director's chair. We pull back to reveal its back. On it is emblazoned a name. That name? George MacKay, the wonderful star of this week's thought-provoking original movie musical, Joshua Oppenheimer's The End, who pops into the podbooth to have a good old natter [from 30:49 - 48:20 approx] with... We pull back. It's another director's chair. On it, another name: Chris Hewitt. Everyone shrugs their shoulders. But wait! There's another chair, and another name! That name is Irwin Winkler, the legendary producer of Rocky, Raging Bull, Goodfellas, The Irishman, Creed, and now The Alto Knights, as he talks to Chris about going double De Niro on that movie. [1:00:37 - 1:17:11 approx] And then there are three more chairs, with three more names, as Helen O'Hara, James Dyer, and John Nugent join Chris in the podbooth for a topsy-turvy episode that flips the format of the show upside down. Our intrepid quartet answer a listener question about Double De Niro, review A Working Man, The Woman In The Yard, and Novocaine, and discuss the week's movie news, including the glacially-paced reveal of the cast of Avengers Doomsday, which was unfolding as we recorded this very show. But they don't necessarily do all of those things in that order. If you're not an MCU stan (or Stan), that discussion comes right at the end of the episode, so here's a rough time stamp should you wish to skip. [1:32:24 approx] For MCU fans, though, dive in. Enjoy.

This week on Screentime John Fardy talks to actor George MacKay about his role in the new apocalypse musical drama 'The End' as well as his roles in 1917 and being a child actor. Chris Wasser is also here with all the week's new cinema releases including the pain-less 'Novocaine'.

And if you're already a Vanguardista, we salute you. A smashy crashy action movie double bill on the review slate this week. First up, ‘Novocaine'—the action comedy where Jack Quaid plays Nathan Caine, a man born with a disorder that leaves him unable to feel pain. When the bank he works in is robbed and the girl of his dreams taken hostage, he discovers his physical quirk can be a superpower. But will it make Mark wince? Plus, The Stath returns in ‘A Working Man'--where he's Jason Statham, doing Stath things. That's probably all you need to know... but Mark will tell us where it's at in the Stath stakes. Our guest this week is none other than Gorgeous George MacKay, who plays ‘Son' in Josh Oppenheimer's post-apocalyptic bunker-musical (yes, you read that correctly) ‘The End'. Set 25 years after an environmental catastrophe leaves the earth uninhabitable, MacKay and his ‘Mother' (Tilda Swinton) and ‘Father (Michael Shannon) carry on a life of luxury and denial in their opulent underground shelter—where Son was born and raised, never having known life before. As Father writes a memoir nobody will read, and the family sing and dance their way through their bizarre existence in Golden-Age style, their brittle harmony is broken by the arrival of an unexpected guest. George tells Simon all about singing, dancing, having the most arthouse onscreen parents evs, and how his own new fatherhood has made him feel differently about the end of the world. Plus more correspondence on Flow from our Latvian listeners, the Milennium Bug from ‘Y2K' defenders, and of course Snow White--including a message from a young critic giving Mark a run for his money.

  What is this Movie? A musical, set in an apocalyptic world covered in snow and ice, where a small collective has been surviving very well off in a luxurious bunker.  While attempting to live out the rest of their days with silver-spoon syndrome an outsider separated from her family stumbles into their home and begs them to let her stay.  They reluctantly allow her to stay where-in she and their only son develop a romantic relationship.  But for everyone else, this outsider is a living reflection of their own shame and the atrocities they've committed and buried deep down in hopes to never resurface.   What is this Film? It's an apocalyptic musical.  It's whimsical Silo.  It's Blast from the Past if Adam never actually went back to the surface but instead contracted a strong case of jungle fever.  And then finds out his pompous parents are cowards and liars.  The End is a story about a group of people who delusionally parade about their aristocracy to distract themselves from the fact that the world has ended, and they might be responsible for it.  And this they were fine with, this disgrace all their own they had come to accept even maybe forgotten until one of the offspring of the last living survivors they abandoned decades ago forces them to wake up and remember who they really are and the horrible things they did for their own self-preservation.  Billions of people died, and these people all just buried their guilt and survivor's remorse in walls of snow and ice surrounding themselves with meaningless privilege.  In a world with no poor, how can there be any rich.  What is power if there is nothing left to rule?  If you leave humanity to die, are you still human? I couldn't get enough of Moses Ingram as Girl, yes that's her name, in this movie.  I had no idea the woman could sing.  Her duet “Catch Fire” with romantic co-star George MacKay has been living rent free in my head for days now.  Her conviction on screen is palpable as she struggles with her own survivor's remorse after growing up in the cold is heart-wrenching.  Every time she sings I think I started melting away into a big ball of man tears.  Your boy is not a big musical fan but in an interview, George MacKay said something to the tune of “this was made for the big screen” and I have to agree.  This film deserves your full attention from the moment MacKay as Boy reveals his desire to experience anything of the world he never got to know.  He longs for the outside, longs to feel the sun, longs to express his emotions and talk about his feelings with his family, in hopes they reciprocate.  But this is just not to be.  Dad, played by Michael Shannon, has an established order.  He treats Boy as if he's preparing him for the world, a world where you work on manifestos and read them aloud in your study, because this bunker has a damn study.  Mom, Tilda Swinton, floats about from room to room nitpicking in the name of perfection.  You never know when guest might be coming over.  We must make sure there's enough soup spoons for everyone.  And yet, you can see she's unstable and full of contempt.  Everyone else in the house is just playing the role that keeps them sheltered. A Doctor, a Butler, a Friend, and Mary in addition to are all that makes up of what's left of humanity in this world.  They even put on performances for entertainment where you can clearly see these people used to be people.  They used to have real worth but now have been reduced to props.  Beautifully, the real story here is told through the music.  All of the emotions come out through song, which took me a while to pick up on.  At first I thought they would just randomly sing short snippets of songs depending on where they were standing in the house.  These aren't long ballads but instead short melodies, where the vocalist through subtle metaphors reveal their internal conflicts.  They don't really sing and then cut to the next season as a way of transitioning through the plot poin...

For better or worse, Bertrand Bonello's The Beast is one of the most memorable movies of 2024. A discombobulating sci-fi trip through time that stars Lea Seydoux and George Mackay, it explodes the kernel of loneliness at the center of Henry James' 1903 novella - The Beast in the Jungle - into something much more...perplexing.

This week, the fellas go to ground in the Belorussian Forest and watch 2008's Defiance! From the twisted mind of Edward Zwick, the film follows the exploits of the Bielski brothers as they try to protect their fellow Jews from the machinations of the invading Nazis. Not content to simply stay alive, they form a working commuinity deep in the woods and aid the Soviets in the fight against fascism and genocide.  Next week: Brendan and Jason want to play a game.

It's an extreme Arthouse Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day. First, we have a super-early review of "Nosferatu," Robert Eggers' exceptionally crafted retelling of the classic vampire story. Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, Willem Dafoe and Bill Skarsgard co-star. It comes out Christmas Day, but we couldn't wait to talk about it, so we're reviewing it now. Next is "The End," Joshua Oppenheimer's ambitious drama about a family living in an elaborate underground bunker after an environmental disaster. Did we mention it's a musical? Tilda Swinton, Michael Shannon, George MacKay and Moses Ingram co-star. In limited release this weekend. Finally, a palate cleanser: Our review of "Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary." The film takes an appreciative, nostalgic look at soft rock stars of the '70s like Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins and Christopher Cross, and how they've shaped pop culture decades later. This is the music of our childhood, so we loved this. Streaming now on Max. We'll back back on Friday with "Nightbitch," "Y2K" and Movie News LIVE!, so come on back then. Thanks for being here!

Michael Shannon is known for his intense and versatile performances across film, television, and theater—“Take Shelter,” “99 Homes,” “Nocturnal Animals,” “Boardwalk Empire,” “Long Days Journey Into Night,” “George and Tammy,” to name just a few. On this episode, he talks about his “simplistic” approach to preparation, the test he gives directors to see if he can trust them, the importance of “disappearing,” why he no longer likes to do endless takes, and much more. Plus he discusses his love for George Mackay, who plays “Son” to Shannon's “Father” in “The End,” Joshua Oppenheimer's post-apocalyptic musical which opens in select theaters December 6th.

In the grand tradition of such intimate war epics as Dunkirk and Black Hawk Down, Oscar-winner Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Skyfall) directed this ground-level journey of two young British army privates (Dean-Charles Chapman, George MacKay) who are sent on an urgent mission during World War I to deliver a message that will hopefully stop 1,600 men from walking straight into a deadly trap set by the enemy.  And everything which transpires on-screen is conducted within ONE continuous shot. :o One of the more acclaimed and successful war epics of recent years, this film nonetheless was dismissed by several as relying more on its central conceit than telling a compelling story....it was also nominated for ten Oscars including Best Picture, and ended up winning three.  Let's embark on this harrowing mission with Lance Corporals Blake and Schofield to see how this holds up five years after it was released.....Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Ep. 239: Bertrand Bonello on The Beast, Experimenting with AI, Crafting Melodrama, Reading Henry James, and more Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. Bertrand Bonello's latest film The Beast has been melting minds with its time-skipping saga of star-crossed lovers and strangers played by Léa Seydoux and George Mackay. Inspired by a Henry James story, The Beast spans three different time periods and pairings: a married woman and a suitor in the 1910s (Belle Époque), an actress and a madman in 2010's California, and a woman facing a fateful choice in a not-too-distant future where artificial intelligence promises to remove individual trauma. I chatted with the restless French auteur (Nocturama, Saint Laurent) about the struggle for connection across these stories, being tempted by AI, directing Mackay and Seydoux, and more. The Beast is in theaters now, and Bonello's previous feature, Coma, will have its first U.S. theatrical run on May 17.

This week we're excited to present a conversation with Léa Seydoux, lead actress of the 61t New York Film Festival Main Slate selection The Beast, which will open in our theaters on April 5. The Beast opens at FLC next Friday, April 5 View showtimes and get tickets at filmlinc.org/beast A filmmaker consistently unafraid to wade through the weird miasma of contemporary life, Bertrand Bonello (Nocturama; Coma, NYFF60) works from the outside in, dramatizing the psychological toll of the political and cultural world around us. Here he has created a dynamic and disturbing parable that jumps between three different time periods (1910, 2014, and 2044) to diagnose our acute—and perhaps eternal—feelings of estrangement and alienation. Using Henry James's haunting 1903 short story “The Beast in the Jungle” as his film's provocative inspiration, Bonello tells the story of a young woman (Léa Seydoux) who undergoes a surgical process to have her DNA—and therefore memories of all her past lives—removed. In so doing, she realizes her fate has long been intertwined, for better and worse, with a young man (George MacKay). Touching on modern anxieties of AI and incel culture, which may recur throughout history as commonly as love and hate, The Beast, like all good science-fiction, asks essential questions about the ever-shifting status of humanity itself. An NYFF61 Main Slate selection. A Sideshow and Janus Films release. This conversation was moderated by FLC's Vice President of Programming Florence Almozini.

You know the gifted actor George MacKay from films like “1917” or “True History of The Kelly Gang.” Now he has given us two absolutely incredible performances in “Femme” (in select theaters now) and “The Beast” (out on April 5th). On this episode, he takes us into his process of inhabiting these two extremely different characters. He explains why context is becoming more and more important to him in his preparation, talks about the actor as storyteller, the secret to appearing truly menacing, those sex scenes in “Femme,” a lesson about respect that he learned from Eddie Marsan, and much more.
