Idiosyncratic French film director and Cannes prizewinner At the Cannes film festival in 1958, the jury prize was awarded to Goha, the first Tunisian film (albeit a co-production with France) to be nominated for the Palme d'Or. There were other important firsts connected with the film. Goha was the first feature directed by Jacques Baratier, who has died aged 91. It featured the 20-year-old Tunisian-born...

It’s the age-old question: in DON’T MAKE WAVES, do you prefer Claudia Cardinale or Sharon Tate? I freely admit that at one point in time I may have said Sharon Tate. But looking at it more recently, my mind seems to have been changed. Yes, Claudia Cardinale’s character is crazy and scatterbrained, not to mention at times being unable to stop screaming at Tony Curtis for so much as...

Translation is everything. Just as prosody, if even if you didn’t know the language nor had any clue of the meaning of the words, Otto E Mezzo manifests a concision, balance & exactness that is flat out gorgeous. So much to be conveyed with just five letters. Brought over from the Italian into English, the title of the great film by Federico Fellini looks off-balance & awkward: 8½....

When it comes to transferring Broadway musicals to the big screen, Rob Marshall is the go to man. He did it successfully with Chicago and he does it again with Nine.

i admit i have a penchant for british actors. from leslie howard to jeremy irons to cillian murphy, i melt from the sound of their voices. i also have a thing for italian actresses. the adventure must have begun with the sublime performance sophia loren gave in 'two women', one of the first italian films i ever saw. from anna magnani to monica vitti, there is something sort of 'barefoot' about these...

HoseMaster of Wine (Free subscription) | 11/06/2009
As a young man learning about the joy and mystery of wine, I spent a lot of time traveling and speaking with winemakers and winery owners searching for wisdom. I didn't know it then, but that's a little bit like searching for humility on Wall Street. Or blind tasting notes in Wine Spectator. Futile. But it was while searching for wine wisdom that the HoseMaster was born. In the course of being a sommelier...

Oh often my favourite Comedy The Pink Panther 1963 ***** As a child, Princess Dala receives a gift from her father, the Shah of Lugash: the Pink Panther, the largest diamond in the world. This huge pink gem has an unusual flaw: looking deeply into the stone, one perceives a tiny discoloration resembling a leaping pink panther – hence the name. As the camera moves in, this image comes to life...
