”The Curse” is set to premiere its first three episodes, totalling 159 minutes, next week at the New York Film Festival.

Dolan sees parallels in how the world is burning up and his retirement from cinema. He’s actually turned into a very doom and gloom kind of person:

Woody Allen’s 50th film, “Coup de Chance,” is not getting good reviews in France. It currently holds a weak 2.6/5 score on AlloCine, the French equivalent of Rotten Tomatoes.

Scorsese’s longtime editor, the legendary Thelma Schoonmaker, has witnessed, first-hand, some wonderful De Niro performances. However, she says that the actor’s work in “Killers of the Flower Moon” is his “greatest performance.”

In the ‘90s and ‘00s, there weren’t many American filmmakers as hot in the world scene as Gus Van Sant.

I can report that there is a SAG-interim agreement set for the film. Production is set to start on October 16th.

It’s set to be released in Los Angeles/New York on October 27th and available to stream via Netflix on November 10th.

Chloe Domont’s “Fair Play,” a scorcher of a film, also has a final trailer, which popped online this afternoon. 

A deadline report is saying that SAG-AFTRA and the studios could be meeting next week. This has everything to do with riding the momentum of the recent WGA and AMPTP deal.

On September 7th, I reported that Christopher Nolan had been in discussions with James Bond producer Barbara Broccoli to direct the next 007 movie.

The review embargo for Gareth Edwards’ “The Creator” is now a thing of the past. The reactions are what I expected: good, but not great. It currently has a 66 on Metacritic (based on 23 reviews).

Director Christos Nikou turned some heads with his Venice pandemic entry “Apples,” which felt Lanthimos-light to me, but it had its fans. At the very least, you can’t help but applaud his ambitions in this latest film.

The Golden Globes are lost. They’re adding two unnecessary categories. The first one is Best Box Office Hit. To qualify for this category a movie must have made over $150 million worldwide, $100 million domestically.

Here is the trailer for Todd Haynes’ “May December.” It is set to open the 61st New York Film Festival, making its North American premiere at Alice Tully Hall, on September 29th.

I’m not even that big a fan of Agnieszka Holland’s “Green Border,” and can still tell you that it not being chosen as Poland’s Oscar submission is absolutely political.

When asked about “Gangs of New York,” Scorsese admits to a creative struggle that clearly still haunts him to this day, particularly when it comes to producer Harvey Weinstein with whom Scorsese had a legendary battle over the film.

Guillermo del Toro recently mentioned how “Punch-Drunk Love” was his favorite PTA and went on to praise Jon Brion’s brilliant score, which he’s been playing “in a loop” for weeks now.

I’ve been saying this for a few years now, but the box-office success of many mid-budget horror movies will translate into plenty more getting greenlit in the future. It’s a no-brainer decision for studio heads looking for a quick buck.

There was no point in tackling another Scorsese rant about comic book movies, but here we are and the filmmaker’s recent comment are making the rounds all over the film world.

A few weeks ago, I had reviewed Grant Singer’s “Reptile” at TIFF. It’s currently playing, in very limited fashion, in New York and L.A. theaters. A streaming launch on Netflix is set for this Friday.
