‘An orgy of antisemitism is overtaking the west’: Son of Saul’s László Nemes on Hollywood hypocrisy

-
His extraordinary Auschwitz film won every award going. Now the Hungarian director is back with new drama Orphan, as well as a Jean Moulin biopic at Cannes. He talks about resurgent global prejudice – and refusing to be lectured by the film industry ‘overclass’ We’ve been talking for less than five minutes when I spot the swastika. It’s just above the head of László Nemes, one of Europe’s most acclaimed directors, as he sits in the suite of a London hotel, talking about Orphan, his intensely personal new film that dwells on – among other things – the impact of the Holocaust on the generations that followed. It’s an ancient, Hindu swastika, part of a decorative wall-hanging – but still. I’m halfway through a question when I notice it. Nemes laughs; of course, he’d seen it immediately. “I wanted to point that out to you,” he says. “It is so funny. Before leaving this room, I will take pictures.” Mind you, he’s had worse. “When I was at the San Sebastián film festival with Son of Saul , t...

Bradley Cooper finally revealed the truth about his relationship with Lady Gaga

-
In 2018, the film A Star Is Born was released, which became one of the most talked-about, and at the same time, received an Oscar. The main roles in this melodrama were played by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper; the chemistry between them was felt not only on the set. The actor was then in a relationship with Irina Shayk, and the following year they broke up. Naturally, the fans of the couple were sure that the singer simply took the artist away from the family. Bradley is extremely reluctant to talk about his life, but in a new article by The Hollywood Reporter, he nevertheless decided to talk about what really happened between him and Lady Gaga. So, Cooper remembered the performance on the stage of the Dolby Theater during the presentation of the Academy Award. "The performance was originally planned as a scene from a movie. I did it on purpose because I was afraid to sing live in front of so many people," the actor emphasized. He denied the speculation about the affair with a former colleague but stressed that throughout the filming process, he admired her exceptional ability to work. "She is terribly charismatic and beautiful. When I met her, I thought: "If I can use this charm in the film, then everything will turn out." But then, when we started working together, I realized that there is no limit to what she is capable of," admitted Cooper. Gaga told a press conference via Vanity Fair in Toronto, "This whole experience was life-changing ... I don't know how much closer my artistic relationship with Bradley has been, the more closely discussed. "Film Festival. "It meant a lot to me, and I think for both of us, we literally shook hands at the beginning of making this film, and he said, 'You're an actress.' I told him you are a musician.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
