In-I In Motion’ Review: Juliette Binoche Revisits a Daunting but Freeing Artistic Experiment

In-I In Motion’ Review: Juliette Binoche Revisits a Daunting but Freeing Artistic Experiment

News
By Guy Lodge According To The variety Of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, the screen’s most celebrated dance partners, Katharine Hepburn is famously said to have declared that he gave her class, while she gave him sex appeal. Juliette Binoche and Akram Khan each have both those qualities in spades, so what did they stand to gain from teaming up for a terpsichorean collaboration on the London stage? By 2007, the Oscar-winning French actor and the royally honored British dancer-choreographer had reached the summits of their respective professions — but while both were accomplished performers, Binoche was no professional dancer, while Khan wasn’t a dramatic actor. Unveiled at the U.K.’s National Theater in September 2008, the hybrid stage piece “In-I” was the striking re...

By Ellise Shafer According To The variety Barbra Streisand is sharing her misty watercolor memories of “The Way We Were” co-star Robert Redford. “Every day on the set of ‘The Way We Were’ was exciting, intense and pure joy. We were such opposites: he was from the world of horses; I was allergic to them! Yet, we kept trying to find out more about each other, just like the characters in the movie,” Streisand wrote in a tribute post on Instagram. “Bob was charismatic, intelligent, intense, always interesting— and one of the finest actors ever. The last time I saw him, when he came to lunch, we discussed art and decided to send each other our first drawings. He was one of a kind and I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him.” Redford, the iconic actor and ...

Michael Keaton Says the ‘Irony’ That Charlie Kirk Was ‘Killed With a Gun Is Unbelievable’: ‘Shooting People Will Never Answer Anything’

Michael Keaton Says the ‘Irony’ That Charlie Kirk Was ‘Killed With a Gun Is Unbelievable’: ‘Shooting People Will Never Answer Anything’

News
By Jack Dunn, Selome Hailu According To The variety Michael Keaton paid respects to the late Charlie Kirk at Investigative Reporters and Editors’ 50th anniversary gala on Monday night, while also speaking on the gun violence that took his life. “Before we start to get into the meat of this thing, I’m going to take a minute to say that, regardless of how I probably — not probably — have disagreed with many things he said, Charlie Kirk leaves behind two kids and a wife,” he said as he opened his speech. “You gotta remember that.” “Because in the end, shooting people will never answer anything, and the irony that he was killed with a gun is unbelievable,” he continued.

Glenrothan’ Review: Brian Cox’s Overly Cozy Directorial Debut Needs a Good Belt of Whisky

Glenrothan’ Review: Brian Cox’s Overly Cozy Directorial Debut Needs a Good Belt of Whisky

News
By Jessica Kiang According To The variety Complexity is key to the flavor profile of a good single-malt whisky. Top notes, middle notes and low notes, and different combinations of minerals, spices, smoke and salt make each sip trigger new associations before you even reach the peaty finish. “Glenrothan,” the directorial debut of Scottish actor Brian Cox, is set around a distillery nestled in the Highlands that has long produced a much-admired single-malt dram to an original recipe. So it’s unfortunate that the film itself is more like a bottom-shelf blend: easily drinkable, highly forgettable, bland. Worse still, it won’t get you even mildly buzzed. It is very quickly established, through shots of the pretty white distillery buildings and the wooded green hills made velvety b...
Sacrifice’ Review: Virtue-Signaling Billionaires Dance on the Edge of a Volcano in Romain Gavras’ Scattershot Satire

Sacrifice’ Review: Virtue-Signaling Billionaires Dance on the Edge of a Volcano in Romain Gavras’ Scattershot Satire

News
By Peter Debruge According To The variety How many rebellious movies about ganging up to overthrow the status quo does one need to make before uneasy governments start to put you on some kind of watch list? For Romain Gavras, son of the legendary “Z” director and political critic Costa-Gavras, the count now stands at three. First, there was his 2010 debut, “Our Day Will Come,” an unnerving call-to-action in which redheads inherit the earth, followed by the white-knuckle “Athena,” about an uprising in a Paris apartment bloc. Now comes the splashy “Sacrifice,” which takes a more satirical view of ecoterrorism and the end of days. “Sacrifice” feels like the music-video director’s reaction to Ruben Östlund’s brand of comedy, an elevated form of irony that has earned the Swedish directo...
