29 h. ago Kim Novak’s Vertigo review – the dizzying demands on Hitchcock’s leading lady

Venice film festivalAn intensely personal interview of the 92-year-old Hollywood star delivers showstopping moments for fans of the golden age of moviesAt 92 years old, Hollywood movie star Kim Novak – legendary of course for her doppelganger starring role in Hitchcock’s Vertigo – is a vivid and, in fact, yearningly romantic and demanding presence in this gallant, cinephile documentary-interview filmed by director and Novak superfan Alexandre O Philippe. She is one of the very few golden age stars still with us, and maybe the title of this film is a playful pun: at the very apex of Hollywood history, perhaps Novak feels dizzy looking down from her mythic height.Philippe himself is more than qualified for this kind of intensely personal exegesis, having in the past made intriguing films about David Lynch’s debt to The Wizard of Oz and about the Psycho shower scene. With a touch of mischief and misdirection, he begins his film by simply playing a voice note that Novak has sent him, in...

4 d. ago Emma and Bruce Willis: The Unexpected Journey – this look at the Die Hard star’s decline is heartbreaking

You’d think an interview with a movie star’s wife ahead of her upcoming book about caring for him would be dreadful. Instead, it’s a poignant watch in which love shines throughOn paper, it looks dreadful. A Diane Sawyer interview with the second wife of a beloved actor who has a life-changing disease, timed to coincide with the launch of said wife’s book about her experiences as a carer. Pass the bucket, give me strength and have some dignity are just some of the instinctive responses.So it is with trepidation verging on dread that one approaches Emma and Bruce Willis: The Unexpected Journey – A Diane Sawyer Special. But, much like the other recent potential schmaltzfest My Mom Jayne (Mariska Hargitay’s film about her mother, Jayne Mansfield, who died in a car crash when Hargitay was three), it turns out unexpectedly well. Yes, Sawyer does not help. She is the doyenne of the sympathetic/emetic head tilt and master of the pained expression. Her furrowed brow invites us to imagine she...

The non-batting runner, having only made it a certain way around the field, gets tagged out by a fielder trying to “steal”, or sneak up, on a base from the one behind. As far as the non-metaphorical meaning goes, no one in this movie is actually apprehended in the act of theft. But in a world where home runs are unavailable to most, the idea of cheekily trying for covert advantage and survival through quick wits is clear.Charlie Huston’s violent crime novel of the same name from 2004 has been adapted for the screen by the author, and Darren Aronofsky directs with gleeful energy, flair and a dark humour that straddles the mischief/malice borderline.

7 d. ago ‘A movie star turn of the highest calibre’: we were wrong about Mother! – and Jennifer Lawrence

By the end of the 2010s, audiences soured on Lawrence as quickly as they’d fallen in love with her. But her performance in this much maligned film is utterly fearlessFind more from our Stream team series hereNo actor defined the 2010s more than Jennifer Lawrence. Less than halfway into the decade, at the age of 22, Lawrence had won the hearts of audiences as the hero Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games, and a best actress Oscar for her performance in Silver Linings Playbook (famously tripping en route to accept it). She was bold, beautiful, brash and inescapable; her self-deprecating humour paired with megawatt talent made her a Messiah for millennials – until she wasn’t.By the decade’s midpoint, the internet seemed to sour on Lawrence as quickly as they’d fallen in love with her. Her foot-in-mouth disease began to offend instead of charm, and her dominance in the media teetered into overexposure. “I just think everybody had gotten sick of me,” she later reflected in 2021. “I’d got...
