‘It’s more productive than doomscrolling’: film-maker Ben Wheatley on his secret life as musician Dave Welder

-
While playing with nine-figure Hollywood budgets, the Kill List and Meg 2 director has become a prolific music producer. Next up is his experimental film, Bulk Dave Welder may just be the most prolific musician you’ve never heard of. In a little more than a year, he has released a staggering 26 records spanning electronica, dub, ambient, kosmische and drone. One of these albums, Thunderdrone, is more than four hours long. Based in Brighton and Hove and described as “a rotating group of musicians and artists”, in reality “Dave Welder” is largely the work of one man who, until now, has been operating in secret: film director Ben Wheatley. “I’ve always wanted to make music,” says Wheatley, whose films include the independent movies High-Rise, Kill List and Sightseers, along with big-budget Hollywood flicks such as the shark thriller Meg 2: The Trench. “I wanted to do it for my films but there was a dissonance. Of all the art forms, I couldn’t really understand it. I would dream that I c...

Hailey Bieber Admitted That After Her Marriage To Justin Bieber, She Had A Conversation With Selena Gomez

-
On Wednesday, Rhode Skin's creator spoke on Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy podcast to discuss a wide range of topics, including the rumors surrounding her marriage to Justin Bieber and the reported turmoil between Bieber and his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez. It doesn't matter what Hailey, her husband, or Gomez have said in the past; the internet still wants to assume there's strife between the three. However, Hailey assured listeners of the podcast that she and the Only Murders in the Building star get along great. Indeed, she has been in contact with Gomez since her wedding to Justin, and she is eager to put the past behind her. I hold no grudges towards her; there's no tension between us. When asked about whether or not she had spoken to Gomez since her wedding, Hailey, 25, answered on a podcast, "Yes, I have." She did not elaborate on the nature of their communication. So that's why I'm like, it's all love and respect. So for this reason, I think it's okay to just say, "Well, if everyone on our part knows what occurred and we're good, and we can walk away from it with transparency and dignity, then that's fine." Cooper continued, assuring Hailey that as long as she is confident in her relationship with Gomez, that is all that matters. That's given me a lot of solaces, and now I can just say, "Hey, we know what occurred; it is what it is," as Hailey put it. You can never fix all the stories that have ever been told, and more will always be written. It's never going to end, and that's why I don't talk about a lot of it: I always figure there's something fresh to talk about. There is a good chance that this interview will teach you something new.

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...
