Almodóvar has been giving interviews these last few days for French outlets, in a few of them he’s been implying that he’d love to shoot a film in French set in Paris.

Here’s the wonderful trailer for Bradley Cooper’s “Maestro,” which is set to premiere at Venice next month. Visually, the film looks beautifully rendered.

It’s been a weird year at the movies. There’s a writers and actors strike. ‘Barbenheimer’ is saving the box-office. We’re also still not entirely sure what will break out this fall.

The culture ministry asked cinemas to withdraw “Barbie” immediately. According to Reuters, the film promoted homosexuality and did not comply with Algeria's religious and cultural beliefs.

As it stands, the film will only be screening at Venice (unless NYFF announces today as part of its premiere section).

Two weeks ago, TIFF announced the world premiere of “Dream Scenario,” starring Nicolas Cage as a schlubby professor who becomes an overnight celebrity after appearing in everyone's dream.

Leigh, who is 80, started shooting this mysterious new film in May and, I’m being told, production has since wrapped.

Michael Oher has filed a lawsuit alleging he wasn’t adopted, but tricked into a conservatorship that gave “parents” Sean & Leigh Anne Tuohy total control over his assets.

Already, 207 “independent” films had been given the greenlight to continue to film during the strike — those specific productions will not be affected by this latest decision.

Is it just me or are movies getting longer these days? It seems to be an unwritten rule, for many moviegoers, that a film should be anywhere between 90 to 120 minutes.

Kaufman didn’t mince words when tackling the current Hollywood studio system and the lack of art in today’s movies. In fact, he believes that any movie that makes a ton of money at the box-office is probably sh*t.

It’s ‘80s week over at IndieWire and to mark the event, they’ve posted their own top 100 of the decade. This is based on the lists submitted from their staff, around 20 of them. Here’s the top 10:

I don’t know the full backstory when it comes to the media smears behind “Sound of Freedom” — what exactly is its connection to conspiracy theorist QAnon? What does it have to do with the movie?

The movie is told from Prince Charming's point of view, but he's being described as a “bumbling idiot”. Meanwhile, Snow White is the real true “fearless leader” of the story. Keep it up, Disney.

And here are the first images —finally — of Hayao Miyazaki’s “The Boy and the Heron.” The promotional booklet was released today in Japan, these images were taken by Catsuka.

Around the time of The Way of the Wind‘s production, two “rather reliable sources” told TFS that Terrence Malick had been editing a longer cut of 2012’s “To the Wonder,” much like he did with the extended versions for “Tree of Life” and “The New World.”

Brody’s latest hot take is not his worst, but it’s far from being one of his best. He’s a big fan of Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” and believes it is the best movie to have ever crossed the billion dollar worldwide mark at the box-office:

Last August, Von Trier announced that he’d been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease at the age of 66. It was shattering news. He’s one of the great filmmakers of the last 30 or so years, definitely one of the most influential.

Taylor Swift might be selling out stadiums across the United States, but her feature directorial debut is very much coming.

There was no press screening this week for “The Last Voyage of the Demeter,” a new period horror film set aboard a merchant ship. The first reviews came on Thursday, which is also when previews started for the film.
