‘I was born without self-esteem’: Hannah Einbinder on Hacks, her buzzy queer horror – and being Hollywood’s most outspoken star

-
The Hacks lead was cast in meta-slasher sensation Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma for her ‘deranged physicality’ – but it’s a fitting role for an actor who has made a point of confronting shame and speaking her mind ‘God is good all the time,” laughs Hannah Einbinder. She’s fresh off a plane from Los Angeles and curled up barefoot in an armchair. This, she says, is “a crazy time in life. Starring in Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma in the midst of Hacks ending … it’s definitely an embarrassment of riches.” Hacks is the HBO comedy that ended earlier this year; in May, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, Jane Schoenbrun’s queer meta-horror, became the breakout hit of this year’s Cannes film festival.

Varun Dhawan to play a CRUCIAL but brief role in Stree 2; Unlike Bhediya, the crossover in the Shraddha Kapoor-starrer to be an important part of the narrative

-
Stree (2018) was one of the biggest surprises of 2018. The horror-comedy had generated a lot of buzz before the release. Yet, no one expected it to cross the Rs. 100 crores mark and earn as much as Rs. 129.90 crores in its lifetime. Starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, Stree’s success prompted the makers to create a horror universe. Varun Dhawan-Kriti Sanon starrer Bhediya (2022), which was released last year, was also a part of this universe and it featured Rajkummar Rao in a mid-credit scene. Additionally, Shraddha Kapoor made a brief appearance in the song ‘Thumkeshwari’, which was played in the end credits. It has now come to light that Varun Dhawan will have an important cameo in Stree 2. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “In Bhediya, the characters of Stree enter towards the very end and had nothing to do with the main conflict in the narrative. But in Stree’s sequel, Varun Dhawan will have a crucial role to play. It will be a special appearance but it’ll be something that will add to the fun and madness in Stree 2.” Bhediya’s mid-credit scene shows that Abhishek Banerjee’s character Janardan is none other than Jana from Stree. Both Stree and Bhediya were directed by Amar Kaushik and the talented director also helms Stree 2. As per recent reports, the film is expected to go on floors in July this year. Meanwhile, Dinesh Vijan, the producer of Stree and Bhediya, is also backing Munjha. Starring Sharvari Wagh in the lead, this horror comedy has gone on floors and is also a part of the same universe as the Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor-starrer. Meanwhile, Shraddha Kapoor recently had a release in the form of Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar. Co-starring Ranbir Kapoor, it is directed by Luv Ranjan and is Shraddha’s first release after three years.

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...
