But while commending the film's harrowing appeal, audiences noticed a striking similarity to the real crimes of David and Katherine Birnie.  Young has distanced himself from the true crime label, but does this film feel like an adaptation of a single story or pulled from a variety of horrific crimes?  Wanna connect with the show?

"The Brutalist" and "The Room Next Door" had their world premieres at the 2024 Venice International Film Festival, where they received critical acclaim, with the former winning the festival's Best Director prize while the latter won the coveted Golden Lion. Both films have something in common, though; they each starred acclaimed character actor Alessandro Nivola. Revered for many years for his performances in film, television, and theater, the 52-year-old actor starred opposite Golden Globe winner Adrien Brody in Corbet's film as Attila, a Hungarian Jew who has assimilated into America and is helping Lazslo get settled in with his custom furniture business. In Almodovar's film, he plays a policeman who confronts Ingrid (played by Julianne Moore) about the apparent suicide of her friend Martha (played by Tilda Swinton). Nivola was kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about his work on both films, which you can listen to or watch below. Please be sure to check out "The Brutalist," which is now playing in theaters from A24 and will expand nationwide on January 24th, while "The Room Next Door" is now playing nationwide from Sony Pictures Classics.

2024-09-11 | Outrage has erupted over a film created by Russian Director and propagandist Anastasia Trofimova, called ‘Russians at War'. Calls for its screening to be pulled from the Toronto International Film Festival have intensified; surely festival organizers should have reacted when the film was showcased at the Venice International Film Festival, despite the public uproar it caused. ---------- Breaking news, as this episode was being recorded, the Canadian broadcaster TVO made a statement that it had withdrawn support from the documentary "Russians at War" following protests from the Ukrainian community, and in fact far more widely than that. But this controversy pales beside news that the film was part-financed by the Canadian government to the tune of $312,000 US dollars. This despite the fact Canada is an ally of Ukraine in its existential fight against the Russian army. A rabble army of murderers, looters and rapists that the Canadian-Russian filmmaker Anastasia Trofimova seeks to absolve and whitewash of their documented war crimes. This is the accusation, but does it stand up to scrutiny? This video examines the controversy and the film itself to understand if the propaganda motive outweighs any artistic merits. If a malign actor, or an openly aggressive revanchist state like Russia, invests money in an information project, with the aim of manipulating the media space and public discourse, to alter both perceptions and policies in that country to favour its own strategic interests, then that is paid for speech, not free speech. And if the parties creating and disseminating those media products don't declare their financial interests, that is disclosure in transparent fashion of who is funding the project, so we can better understand their motives and objectives, then really, this is not free speech, but an informational weapon, an assault on public discourse. ---------- Sources and recommended reading: https://kyivindependent.com/opinion-russian-soldiers-in-ukraine-are-ordinary-guys-who-commit-horrific-war-crimes/ https://kyivindependent.com/outrage-erupts-over-canadian-tax-dollars-funding-russians-at-war-documentary/ ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

The X film series consists of American horror films based on an original story written by Ti West. The series includes the original film X, its prequel Pearl (both 2022), and its sequel MaXXXine (2024). The overall plot of the movies centers on two characters, Maxine "Max" Minx and Pearl, both portrayed by Mia Goth. The first film, X, was met with critical acclaim,[1] and was a success at the box office. A tribute to slasher films of the past, the picture was deemed a horror film classic and impactful, anticipating its influence on the future of the genre.[2][3][4][5][6] Its prequel, Pearl, was also critically acclaimed, with some stating that it inadvertently improved the premise of the previous installment, and was also a success at the box office.[7][8] The third film, MaXXXine, was released on July 5, 2024.[9] It received generally favorable reviews from critics and became the highest grossing film in the series.[10] Pearl (subtitled An X-traordinary Origin Story) is a 2022 American psychological horror film directed, produced, and edited by Ti West, and co-written by West and Mia Goth. It is the second installment in West's X film series and a prequel to X (2022). Goth reprises her role as the title character, with a supporting cast featuring David Corenswet, Tandi Wright, Matthew Sunderland, and Emma Jenkins-Purro. Pearl serves as an origin story for the title villain, whose fervent aspiration to become a movie star led to her committing violent acts on her family's Texas homestead in 1918. West began co-writing a prequel script stemming from his collaboration with Goth while filming X. Motivated by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cinema, filming started in New Zealand immediately after the first film, using X sets and the Avatar: The Way of Water crew and taking pandemic safety precautions. Pearl drew inspiration from the works of Douglas Sirk, Technicolor films like The Wizard of Oz (1939) and Mary Poppins (1964), and Disney films. It had its world premiere at the 79th Venice International Film Festival on September 3, 2022, and was released in theaters in the United States on September 16, 2022, by A24. The film grossed over $10 million and received positive reviews from critics, with Goth's performance receiving considerable praise. A direct sequel to X, titled MaXXXine, was released on July 5, 2024, with Goth reprising her second role from the first film. MaXXXine is a 2024 American horror film written, directed, produced, and edited by Ti West. It is the third installment in West's X film series following X and Pearl (both 2022), serving as a direct sequel to the former. Mia Goth reprises her X role as Maxine Minx, starring alongside Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Sumney, Michelle Monaghan, Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, Lily Collins, Giancarlo Esposito, and Kevin Bacon. In the film, Maxine sets out for fame and success in 1980s Hollywood while being targeted by a mysterious killer. MaXXXine had its premiere at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles on June 24, 2024, and was released in the United States by A24 on July 5, 2024. The film grossed $21 million worldwide, becoming the highest-grossing film of the series.

It's one of the most iconic scenes in one of the greatest movies in American history, and it has almost nothing to do with the rest of the plot. It's mob capo Paulie Cicero, played by the late Paul Sorvino. He's in a minimum-security prison with the rest of the wise guys. They've bribed the guards so they can have all the stuff they need for a proper Italian dinner, which they are about to cook themselves: Vinnie's making the tomato sauce, his meatballs a mixture of veal, beef, pork, and too many onions; Johnny Dio's cooking T-bones in a pan over a portable electric burner; then Henry Hill, played by Ray Liotta, shows up with fresh Italian loaves, prosciutto, salami, and a bottle of J&B Scotch.

Today I speak with my friend and exceptional filmmaker Ellie Foumbi, about her Independent Spirt Award-nominated 'Our Father The Devil,' which is now on the Criterion Channel following a premiere at last year's Venice International Film Festival. We also discuss the influence of Andrea Arnold's film 'Red Road' (2006) on her work.We reminisce about our initial meeting and collaboration in 2012, mutual connections in the industry, and Ellie's process of making an effective micro-budget thriller - which involves the balance of intrigue, character development, and a clear antagonist to create tension and engage the audience. Ellie shares her thoughts on the future of cinema, the significance of her work being featured on Criterion, and the importance of patience and honing one's skills through short films and workshops. What Movies Are You Watching?Like, subscribe and follow us on our socials @pastpresentfeature

"Green Border" had its world premiere at the 2023 Venice International Film Festival, where it received critical acclaim for Director/Co-Writer Agnieszka Holland's harrowing depiction of the refugee crisis sweeping its way through the Belarus–European Union border. With stark black and white photography, intense performances and a vast but intimate scope that looks at how the crisis has impacted the lives of so many, the film stands out as one of the most controversial but important films of the year. Holland was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about her work on the film, which you can listen to below.

"Evil Does Not Exist" had its world premiere at the 2023 Venice International Film Festival, where it received positive reviews for its direction and writing from Ryūsuke Hamaguchi, and score by Japanese singer-songwriter and musician Eiko Ishibashi. Following their collaboration on the Oscar-winning film, "Drive My Car," the two intended to make a 30-minute short film accompanied by a live score. But as the production got lengthier and the shoot went along, Hamaguchi decided to turn it into a feature film with dialogue, which is the film we have today. Ishibashi was kind enough to sit and talk with us about her latest work which can be listened to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in limited release in the U.S. from Sideshow/Janus Films. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
