63 h. ago ‘I’m less apologetic now’: Kelly Macdonald on her Trainspotting teen highs and hitting her stride in her 40s

She hid in the toilets during the Trainspotting shoot – yet became a screen sensation. As the star plays a police therapist in new Netflix thriller Dept Q, she explains why today’s young female actors leave her in aweOne of the good things about playing a therapist, says Kelly Macdonald with a laugh, is that you get to sit down a lot. There’s a fun scene in the new Netflix thriller Dept Q in which her character, Dr Rachel Irving, weary of her client DCI Carl Morck, plants herself down behind her desk to eat her packed lunch in front of him. Morck may be the kind of troubled detective we’re used to seeing in police dramas, but Irving isn’t a typical therapist. She’s blunt, antagonistic even. It’s a “shitty” job working with police officers, she tells him. Another time she describes him as “doolally”, which in my experience is not something a typical therapist would say; Macdonald, who has had therapy, “but not regularly”, may agree.In the show – adapted from novels by the Danish auth...

1 week ago First Shift review – disaster master Uwe Boll’s latest goes on patrol, Training Day

Boll shores up his reputation for terrible film-making as odd-couple rookie cops bond over a cute dog between gun rampagesThe most interesting thing about this crushingly mediocre cop movie is that it’s directed by the notorious Uwe Boll (Postal, Alone in the Dark), who is a character more bizarre than any drafted for the screen – at one point he invited his severest critics to fight him in the boxing ring. While the poor quality of his work, especially his computer game adaptations, is perhaps overhyped – are they that bad? – there’s less dispute that his films are largely not financially successful, and his output has slowed after a now-abandoned retirement. (Like Steven Soderbergh, it seems Boll just can’t quit.) One of his weirder re-emergences recently was playing himself in Radu Jude’s acclaimed Romanian art film Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World from 2023 – after which he made this lukewarm mess.As the title might suggest, the idea is that this follows the firs...
