On episode 284 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by AwardsWatch Dan Bayer to review the latest film from director Ryan Coogler, Sinners, and talk about their favorite horror films of the century so far. The film world has been buzzing the last two weeks in the anticipation for Ryan Coogler's Sinners, a Southern gothic vampire musical that in one of the most original, authentic studio films released in sometime. After a strong opening box office and even stronger word of mouth from audiences, receiving an “A” CinemaScore this past weekend, Sinners is being considered one of, if not the best film of 2025 released so far. Ryan and Dan breakdown their extensive thoughts on the film, avoiding spoilers yet diving deep into the complex, exciting world Coogler has built. After they are done reviewing the film, they dive into a discussion over the horror genre for the last 25 years, and how it has evolved and changed over the course of the last two and a half decades. Films mentioned in their conversation ranged from Get Out, Saw, The Ring, The Cabin in the Woods, The Conjuring, Drag Me to Hell, The Others, American Psycho, The Witch, Midsommar, It Follows, Green Room, The Substance, Nosferatu, Suspiria, Titane, and many more.

La cuenta regresiva para el Festival de Cannes comenzó con la presentación de la selección oficial. Como siempre, un ramillete de estrellas se dejará ver en la prestigiosa alfombra roja de la Croisette. Pero también se incluyeron muchas primeras películas. Dos cintas chilenas figuran en la selección oficial; el brasileño Kleber Mendonca Filho disputará la Palma de oro junto a otros 18 cineastas de horizontes diversos. Dos películas chilenas, "La ola", de Sebastián Lelio, y "La misteriosa mirada del flamenco", ópera prima de Diego Céspedes, forman parte de la selección oficial, fuera de competición, del próximo Festival de Cannes, anunció el jueves la organización.La cinta de Lelio, sobre la movilización feminista en Chile, será proyectado en la sección paralela de Cannes Première de la muestra, que se llevará a cabo del 13 al 24 de mayo. El director chileno, conocido por "Gloria" y "Una mujer fantástica", presenta en esta cinta a una estudiante chilena involucrada en el movimiento feminista en su universidad.Por su parte, "La misteriosa mirada del flamenco", de Céspedes, forma parte de la sección paralela Una Cierta Mirada, dedicada a los jóvenes talentos y la más importante después de la competición. La película está ambientada en un desértico pueblo minero donde se propaga una enfermedad desconocida, que se transmite cuando un hombre se enamora de otro a través de la mirada, según resume una de las empresas productoras de la cinta.“El festival de Cannes, como el cine, es universal. Por eso, escogemos películas de todas partes del mundo. Este año tenemos dos películas chilenas. Es una satisfacción muy grande, porque son películas fantásticas”, expresó Thierry Frémaux.Lo mejor del cine de autor mundialEn liza por la Palma de Oro, muchos cineastas veteranos, pero también nuevas caras que traerán vientos de frescura en la distinguida Croisette.Entre las firmas conocidas, el cineasta iraní Jafar Panahi, el estadounidense Wes Anderson, la francesa Julia Ducournau que aspira a una segunda Palma de Oro, y los belgas Jean-Pierre y Luc Dardenne que buscan una tercera, competirán en el 78º Festival de Cannes, se anunció este jueves.Seis directoras --el récord de realizadoras fue siete en 2023-- figuran entre la veintena de cineastas cuyos filmes seleccionados fueron anunciados por el delegado general Thierry Frémaux durante una conferencia de prensa el jueves.Otros nombres elegidos para la competición principal son el veterano cineasta independiente estadounidense Richard Linklater, y Ari Aster, el nuevo maestro del terror estadounidense cuyos créditos anteriores incluye "Midsommar".El festival también acogerá el debut como directora de la actriz Scarlett Johansson, quien además actúa en la película en competición de Anderson "The Phoenician Scheme", junto a Benicio del Toro y Tom Hanks.Entre los jóvenes cineastas de la competencia, dos españoles, Carla Simón y Oliver Laxe. La directora de 38 años vuelve a posar la mirada en su traumático pasado con "Romería". La película narra el viaje familiar de una joven catalana a Galicia tras perder a sus padres por el sida, el mismo drama que vivió Simón cuando era una niña.“Sirat", del gallego Oliver Laxe, es "una road movie de gente inadaptada", explicó Frémaux. Es la cuarta película de Laxe, y está protagonizada por el actor Sergi López, conocido tanto en el cine español como francés.Más allá de los nombres de culto, Cannes será de nuevo el lugar de acogida de las estrellas y grandes producciones estadounidenses.La Croisette recibirá con los brazos abiertos a Tom Cruise, de 62 años, una de las estrellas favoritas del público francés, el día 14."The final reckoning" es la segunda parte de "Misión Imposible: Sentencia mortal" (2023), en la que Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) y su equipo se enfrentan a la amenaza de la inteligencia artificial.El festival rendirá también homenaje, en su gala de apertura, al legendario Robert de Niro, de 81 años, doble ganador del Oscar, pero nunca premiado como actor en Cannes. El intérprete de "Taxi driver" recibirá una Palma de Oro honorífica.Con AFP

Además de ser un gran dibujante, Juanjo Cuerda está dispuesto a convertirse en el enfant terrible de la crítica cinematográfica gracias a su alter ego, "el destripador de películas", que ahora publica su segundo volumen con Fandogamia Editorial. Si teníamos pensado disfrutar de una estimulante sesión de cine con títulos como "Oppenheimer", "La la land", "Blade Runner 2049", "Madres paralelas" o "Midsommar", este libro hará que nos lo pensemos dos veces, ningún director está a salvo del particular criterio del "destripador". Lo bueno es que nos ofrece 500 y pico alternativas mejores que las 50 películas y 2 series de televisión analizadas en "El destripador de películas 2". Sálvese quien pueda.Escuchar audio
Artificially Intelligent girlfriends. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss Companion (2025) and Her (2013). Both films have director-writers in Drew Hancock and Spike Jonze, respectively. We start by discussing the vision of the future Her presents and how much has come to pass - 'prescient' is the word we all describe the film as. We celebrate a number of elements of Her that we enjoy. The conversation then moves to a discussion of Companion and how we found the film not as complex as Her. We discuss the films in connection to Lost In Translation (2003), Barbarian (2022), Ex Machina (2014), M3GAN (2022), Hereditary (2018), Midsommar (2019), Beau Is Afraid (2023), Heretic (2024), The White Lotus (2021-) and Yellowjackets (2021-). We praise the performances of Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams, Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid. We end with a discussion about real-world AI today and how the films connect to matters at hand.

Send us a textEvery March, Hollywood seems to enter a strange twilight zone – award season is over, summer blockbusters remain months away, and the theatrical landscape becomes a curious mix of studio castoffs and hidden gems. This year proves particularly fascinating as we've witnessed an unprecedented $320 million Netflix disaster alongside genuinely brilliant filmmaking that's struggling to find its audience.The stark contrast between something like The Electric State – a bloated, CGI-heavy disappointment from the once-celebrated Russo Brothers – and Steven Soderbergh's masterfully crafted spy thriller Black Bag perfectly illustrates the film industry's current identity crisis. While Netflix burns through hundreds of millions for minimal cultural impact, filmmakers like Paul Schrader continue creating thought-provoking character studies like O Canada with a fraction of those resources.We're particularly excited about Opus, a psychological folk horror that blends elements of Get Out and Midsommar with John Malkovich delivering some of his finest work as an aging pop star. This divisive but mesmerizing directorial debut from Mark Anthony Green represents exactly the kind of original filmmaking that deserves theatrical support. Meanwhile, smaller releases like Borderline demonstrate how even promising premises with talented leads like Samara Weaving can falter without proper development.What's becoming increasingly clear is that budget size bears little correlation to quality or cultural significance.

Understanding these conditions can help you manage them better. Keep track of any changes in your menstrual cycle, pain levels, or other symptoms. This information can be crucial for your healthcare provider to make accurate diagnoses.Consider Egg Freezing: If diagnosed with PCOS or endometriosis, discuss the possibility of egg freezing with your doctor, especially if you plan to have children later in life. Although PCOS patients often have a high egg count, egg quality typically decreases after 30, making early discussion around egg freezing essential.Be Your Own Advocate and Spread Awareness: If you feel dismissed by a healthcare provider, seek a second opinion. Trust your instincts and ensure your concerns are taken seriously. Share your knowledge and experiences with others. Raising awareness can help more women get diagnosed and treated early.Embrace Body Positivity: Celebrate your body and its uniqueness. Confidence in your own skin can inspire others and promote a healthier self-image.GUEST BIO: Florence Pugh is a British actress.

None of the synopses really get the pitch right but what the hell, this'll do. Dir: Ari Aster Joined for this one by Marcus and Seb of THE RETURN OF THE REPRESSED podcast
