Das Weiße Band [The White Ribbon] Dir: Michael Haneke Cast: Christian Friedel, Burghart Klaußner, Leonard Proxauf, Rainer Bock, Susanne Lothar, Leoni Benesch Michael Haneke’s cinema is deliberately, often explicitly, challenging. The White Ribbon lacks the extremes of films like Funny Games and The Piano Teacher but, like its director’s previous work, it is an uneasy experience....

We've featured some images and the trailer for Cracks, the debut feature from Jordan Scott, daughter of some small-time director named Sir Ridley. You may have heard of him. Chances are in the next couple years you'll hear a lot more about her, and not just as the daughter of a famous guy. IFC is going to help that process along; the company has picked up Cracks for distribution in the US. Variety...

Got six days to spare? Then you might be able to stick around for the entire public screening of Cinematon, a film by Gerard Courant, when it unspools in Avignon later this month. The project has been running for 30 years, and represents Courant's original intent -- to document the lives and thoughts of his artistic friends -- taken to an interesting extreme. Calling Cinematon a 'film' isn't quite...

As a fan of many years and with a couple near misses in the past, today’s LFF interview is probably the highlight of the festival for me. It was my pleasure to spend some time (however brief) with director Harmony Korine, to discuss his latest offering Trash Humpers, along with the chances of us ever [...]

If you thought Dave 'd finally dropped dead from exhaustion, then, quite apart from that being rather insulting (I can last more than a week, thanks), you were wrong. I merely took a weekend breather, but I'm back headlong into the LONDON FILM FESTIVAL for its remaining two weeks. This week's hot tickets include Julianne Moore in Atom Egoyan's Chloe , Michael Haneke's The White Ribbon and one of my...

Lars von Trier's new film “Antichrist” is but the latest in a long line of shock-tactic art films that date back to 1929. But in the age of “Saw IV,” Internet pornography, and unending real-life reports of torture and terrorism, aren't these bad-boy outrages looking a little tired?

Most of the films in LFF have not yet been through BBFC, and so I won't be indicating an official certificate. However, both of these films will get an 18. Enter the Void Dir: Gaspar Noe Cast: Nathaniel Brown, Paz De La Huerta, Cyril Roy, Olly Alexander Gaspar Noe’s last feature film, IRREVERSIBLE , was a shock to the system; a caustic masterpiece that was, despite its brilliance, impossible...

by Steve Dollar Like swallows to Capistrano, the zombies return to the Catalonian seaside resort of Sitges every October—at least they have since 1967—and their number keeps growing. The 42nd edition of the Festival Internacional de Cinema Fant� stic was a breeding pool for all things undead or otherwise beyond mortal kin or consciousness. Yet, Hollywood entertainments like Zombieland...

A most fantastic start to the BFI London Film Festival yesterday, as stars and fans packed out Leicester Square in what promises to be the biggest, glitziest film festival yet. If some are lamenting the state of the British film industry it was not apparent last night, as Ben Kingsley, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Jarvis Cocker and George Clooney attended the opening gala, the world premiere of...

The humidity levels aren't as severe these past few days but heavy precipitation gets me down. I particularly hate precipitation mixed with strong winds or continuous rain showers as the asphalt on the roads here become swept away and driving...
