Michael Madsen’s brooding charisma needed Tarantino to unlock it | Peter Bradshaw

-
The Reservoir Dogs and Donnie Brasco actor had a rare, sometimes scary power, as well as a winning self-awareness and levity Michael Madsen, star of Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill and Donnie Brasco, dies aged 67 Michael Madsen– a life in pictures Until 1992, when people heard Stuck in the Middle With You by Stealers Wheel on the radio, they might smile and nod and sing along to its catchy soft-rock tune and goofy Dylan-esque lyrics. But after 1992, with the release of Quentin Tarantino’s sensationally tense and violent crime movie Reservoir Dogs, the feelgood mood around that song forever darkened. That was down to an unforgettably scary performance by Michael Madsen, who has died at the age of 67. Stuck in the Middle, with its lyrics about being “so scared in case I fall off my chair”, was to be always associated with the image of Madsen, whom Tarantino made an icon of indie American movies, with his boxy black suit, sinister, ruined handsomeness and powerful physique running ...

BREAKING: 2.41 minute long trailer of Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Dunki passed by CBFC with U/A certificate

-

The month of December is expected to be an exciting one for moviegoers. Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol and Rashmika Mandanna has already created a rage. This will be followed by Dunki, which marks the first collaboration between superstar Shah Rukh Khan and blockbuster director Rajkumar Hirani. Bollywood Hungama has been at the forefront in giving news about the censor process of the assets of Dunki. We now bring to you another exciting update.

The theatrical trailer of Dunki was submitted to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Yesterday, that is, November 25, the trailer was cleared by the Censors with a U/A certificate. The length of the trailer, as mentioned on the censor certificate, is 2 minute 41 seconds.

Interestingly, the name of the applicant and producer on the certificate is Sahil Chandramohan Khosla. As per sources, he’s a part of Rajkumar Hirani Films, which has also produced the film. The development is significant as instead of Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment, it is Rajkumar Hirani’s production house that completed the censor process.

Earlier, the makers of Dunki got the certification done of as many as 6 teasers. The first teaser was released on November 2 followed by the song ‘Lutt Putt Gaya’ on November 22. It now remains to be seen whether the makers of Dunki will unveil the remaining five teasers or will they directly launch the theatrical trailer.

Besides Shah Rukh Khan, Dunki also stars Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal and Boman Irani. It arrives in cinemas on December 21, 2023.

The Portable Door review – Harry Potter-ish YA fantasy carried by hardworking cast

-
Jeffrey Walker’s adaptation of the young-adult fantasy novel retains its edge thanks to its performances, but gets stuck on the whole door thing Adapted from Tom Holt’s 2003 young-adult fantasy novel, this is a passable attempt at kickstarting a new Harry Potter-style franchise set in a fusty-quirky institution, dosed up with extra Gilliamesque grotesquery. Co-produced by the Jim Henson Company, the production design is poky and intense, and the cast – with Christoph Waltz and Sam Neill larking it up – give it their all. But amid all this clutter, it sometimes has trouble moving its story forward. The Portable Door has a nice conceit: the venerable London corporation of JW Wells & Co is responsible for engineering all the daily incidents of coincidence and serendipity that happen in urban life. Not that wet-behind-the-ears intern Paul Carpenter (Patrick Gibson), desperate for any gig, knows the company’s raison d’etre when he signs up. He appears to have no discernible talents wh...
