Our Fault review – ultra-glossy Spanish step-sibling melodrama is too bland to be annoying

-
Third film adapted from the romance novels by Mercedes Ron, originally written in Spanish, feels clunky and cliched This is the third film in a series, after My Fault in 2023 and Your Fault in 2024 , that have been adapted from the Culpable trilogy, romance novels by Mercedes Ron, originally written in Spanish. It’s obviously aimed at a specific market that expects a certain blend of melodrama, softcore sex and lush lifestyle porn, and (more importantly) is invested already in the trilogy’s story. Given those parameters, it probably delivers – although the dialogue, at least judging by the subtitles, is super clunky and cliched. Complete outsiders coming to this cold may be a little baffled by what’s going on, since this concluding instalment makes no effort to fill in any blanks. But even total newbies will get the gist that heroine Noah (Nicole Wallace) still has feelings for her ex Nick (Gabriel Guevara) – who also, somewhat disturbingly, was once her stepbrother, although their ...

Sam Heughan, Star Of Outlander, Claims He Was Told He Lacked Edginess Necessary For The Role Of James Bond

-
Sam Heughan is thinking about the time he tried out for the role of James Bond and how his life may have been altered now if he had been cast. The 42-year-old Outlander star, in an interview with Entertainment Weekly to promote the launch of his forthcoming memoir Waypoints: My Scottish Journey, reflected on his disappointment at being passed over for the role of James Bond, which ultimately went to Daniel Craig. Heughan told EW that the audition was "quite an experience," but he now wonders what would have occurred if he had gotten the role. In his autobiography, the actor explains, "When I found out I hadn't gotten the part, the comments I got boiled down to the notion that I wasn't edgy enough by nature." He adds, as reported by EW, "I'm always eager to take on critique so I can better as an actor," but the implication appeared to be that he lacked this characteristic in his genuine character. It was beyond my control, and I fated to be that way, even though I couldn't fathom what impact it would have on portraying the character. Heughan would prefer to see another Scottish Bond, but he recognizes that Daniel Craig, now 54, has made Bond his own. The actor also pays tribute to Sean Connery, a fellow Scot whom he describes as "the true idol" and who, as Bond, has all the requisite qualities (charm, ferocity, physicality, and accent) to fully realize the role. With Craig's retirement as Bond following 2021's No Time to Die, Heughan's Bond audition story arrives when speculation persists over who will succeed him in the role. Bond producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli revealed they are still researching pitching candidates for the job following Craig's departure, including 62-year-old Broccoli's favorite, Idris Elba. The interview was released last month in Variety.

The enigma of Rose Dugdale: what drove a former debutante to become Britain and Ireland’s most wanted terrorist?

-
The case of the English heiress who became an IRA bomber and art thief, even burgling her own family estate, was one of the most confounding stories of the late 20th century. Now it’s dramatised in a new film In 1958, 17-year-old Rose Dugdale was one of 1,400 young women who curtseyed before Queen Elizabeth II in the most prestigious event of the summer’s debutante season. It was the last time that the well-bred daughters of the most aristocratic and affluent families in the country would be presented to the monarch in a ritual that dated back 200 years. Princess Margaret, with characteristic hauteur, would later say: “We had to put a stop to it. Every tart in London was getting in.” For the fiercely independent Dugdale, being presented to the queen was a means to an end. She had agreed on the condition that her parents allowed her to attend the all-women St Anne’s College, Oxford, to study philosophy, politics and economics. Sixty years later she would recall the debutante season as...
