Scott’s decision to shift into book reviewing was announced on Tuesday. That basically leaves us with Manhola Dargis, another SJW who has still been more interesting to read than Scott.

This is more or less a confirmation that Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” will have its world premiere at the 76th Cannes Film Festival.

First things first, I’ve heard from a few sources that Yorgos Lanthimos’ “Poor Things” is going to Cannes. You can put it in the bank. I have no idea why it’s been delayed for this long, but at least we now know where it’ll be having its world premiere.

UPDATED: I’ve updated this post since a trailer has just been released for the film.

For years we’ve been wondering about Stanley Kubrick’s unrealized “Napoleon” screenplay. It’s become one of the mythic lost projects in movie history.

When asked this morning at the Berlin Film Festival, the filmmaker admitted he actually has no idea what his next directorial effort will be.

Many forget just how important and vital a cinematic voice Terry Gilliam was during his peak years, especially when he was battling Universal for the final cut of his 1985 masterpiece, “Brazil.”

Roger Friedman has more Croisette tea this morning. Pedro Almodóvar’s 30-minute short film, titled “Strange Way of Life,” has supposedly been chosen to open the 76th Cannes Film Festival.

James Cameron has been sucked up by the 3D virtual reality that is Pandora and, by all accounts, he doesn’t mind staying there for the rest of his career.

Variety’s Clayton Davis is at it again. In his post-BAFTA piece, titled “‘Everything Everywhere’ Up in the Air for Best Picture After BAFTA and DGA Split,” he makes the case for something other than EEAO winning Best Picture.

You would think an inside look documentary about the war in Ukraine, told from Zelenskyy and Sean Penn’s perspectives, would have critics drooling with raves, but no.

A source working on Ridley Scott’s grandiose Apple TV series “Sinking Spring” tells me that the Scott-directed pilot has almost wrapped filming.

Paul Thomas Anderson had one hell of an intro for Todd Field last night at the DGA, calling “TÁR” a “beast” of a movie
