The program opens tonight with László Benedek’s 1953 outlaw biker [...] So what if the film’s been panned by nearly every movie critic this side of Abu Dhabi? All the single ladies would burn their Louboutins before passing up the occasion to suck down sugar sludge cocktails and flounce around in Jenny Packham just like Manhattan’s own bedazzled and vajazzled fantasy foursome. Want to learn how [...] As soon as the Cannes Film Festival closes, the always interesting and edgy Quinzaine des Réalisateurs program is relocated to the Forum des Images where the entire program is screened, for the most part prior to the film’s general release.

The rest of the festival line-up will be made public on April 15. Tim Burton’s take on Lewis Carroll’s delirious story is an epic 3D fantasy adventure starring Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter and Mia Wasiowska as 19-year-old Alice, who returns to the whimsical world she first encountered as a young girl, reuniting with her childhood friends: the White Rabbit, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, the Dormouse, the Caterpillar, [...] We’ve all heard of Cannes and Sundance, but what about The European Independent Film Festival? Taking place at Left Bank arthouse cinema Le Grand Action and Le Triomphe this weekend , the European Independent Film Festival (ÉCU) seeks to discover, promote and screen the very best independent filmmaking talent from across the world, focusing particularly [...] |
