One of the better stories of 2022 indie cinema is the streaming success of the Sundance-premiered crime-drama “Emily the Criminal.”

THR’s Scott Feinberg has decided to abandon the “Everything Everywhere All At Once” ship as his #1 pick for the Best Picture Oscar winner. He’s swapped it for “Top Gun: Maverick” in the top slot.

While Steven Spielberg depicts his encounter with John Ford in “The Fabelmans,” one filmmaker he failed to meet was Alfred Hitchcock.

In early November, I wrote about Greta Gerwig potentially directing two adaptations of CS Lewis’ “Narnia” for Netflix. It felt like a strange fit for Gerwig, but then again so was “Barbie.”

Can you celebrate Roman Polanski’s films with knowledge of his controversial past? A German outlet asked French director Francois Ozon that very question and others in an interview about “cancel culture.”

One look at Netflix’s 2023 lineup of films, I had to scroll through an innumerable amount of movies that looked just plain BAD, and I noticed that they have somewhat cut back on the big name directors for next year’s slate.

If you look at the Gold Derby charts, Gina Prince-Bythewood‘s “The Woman King” is sitting at the precipice of a Best Picture nomination.

“Broker” stars Song Kang Ho (Parasite) as a struggling laundromat owner who turns to being a baby broker to pay his debt to local gangsters.

I received an email from a person who worked on the tech crew of “Oppenheimer.” They elaborated further on what we might expect from Christopher Nolan’s upcoming “bomb” movie.

I don’t care if you love or hate Nicolas Winding Refn, but he is 100% right when talking about the current state of Hollywood. It’s not sustainable. Things are drastically changing and nobody’s found a way to stop the bleeding.

Some are complaining that “Babylon” is a historically inaccurate depiction of 1920s Hollywood debauchery. Of course, these same people are calling the film’s historical details out without necessarily presenting any evidence to the contrary.

Although he’s had a legendary music video career (“Hurt” “99 Problems”), Romanek has also managed to direct three critically acclaimed films: 1985’s “Static,” 2002’s “One Hour Photo” and 2010’s “Never Let Me Go.” That’s about it — three films in almost forty years.

Steven Spielberg has called “Goodfellas” his favourite Martin Scorsese movie. Maybe it’s my favourite as well, I don’t really know, but I have never been able to decide what’s Scorsese’s magnum opus. He has too many great ones.

The good news for “Avatar: The Way Of Water” is that it has somewhat hit early projections and now made $1 billion worldwide after just 13 days in theaters. That makes it the 6th fastest film ever to reach that mark.

Woody Allen has just published a novel of humorous short stories titled “Zero Gravity.” He was promoting the book when he spoke to 'El Intermedio' via video call last week.

It doesn’t look like it’s going to be very merry Christmas for Marc Foster’s ‘A Man Called Otto’ as the film’s embargo has lifted and reviews (save for a few exceptions) aren’t good.

Even I, enormous detractor of “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” find it ridiculous that Variety’s Clayton Davis has Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan at #10 on his Best Director predictions.

James Cameron has been painstakingly trying to virtue signal his 68-year-old ass through the press circuits these past few weeks. It’s becoming ridiculous.

When I compared Damien Chazelle’s “Babylon” to Michael Cimino’s “Heaven’s Gate” last month, I was being very serious.

I don’t write much about television shows, mostly due to not being able to catch up with everything that gets released. It’s either plunge full-on into movies or TV and I’ll always choose the former.
