Streaming: Steven Soderbergh’s Presence and the best haunted house films

-
The director’s witty supernatural thriller joins Psycho, Hereditary, The Brutalist and more – films in which buildings are characters in their own right The first more-or-less horror movie in the lengthy, genre-skimming career of director Steven Soderbergh , Presence is a film about grief, trauma, familial dysfunction and abusive masculinity. But it’s also, to a significant and compelling extent, about property. Beginning with a family’s first viewing of a handsome Victorian home in an unidentified stretch of suburbia, the film never ventures outside its walls for the next 85 minutes, as the ensuing chills make us consider the merits of that purchase. Wittily and unnervingly shot from the perspective of the restless spirit roaming its halls, it’s a haunted house film in which much of the tension feels determined by the shape and flow and light and shade of the house itself. It’s a while since I’ve seen a film where I could quite so exactly draw the floor plan of its primary location,...

Bade Miyan Chote Miyan: Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff starrer follows the ‘Buy One Get One Free’ trend

-

Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff, two names that are associated with Bollywood action, have joined hands for a high-octane drama which released in theatres last week. On the occasion of Eid, as the duo along with Ali Abbas Zafar, promise to take action lovers on an adventure ride, now it seems one of the riders can tag along for free! Well, reports suggest that Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has decided to follow the ‘Buy One Get One Free’ trend.

It is being said that people can now buy tickets for Bade Miyan Chote Miyan in a buy-one-get-one-free offer. While Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has been garnering love from people, especially the quintessential Bollywood action lovers, it also received thumbs up from many Bollywood insiders. The film is an adrenaline-pumping action drama, featuring Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff in the role of court-marshalled officers who are dragged into a conspiracy that involves human cloning. Apart from them, their team of investigative officers include Captain Misha played by Manushi Chhillar and IT Specialist and hacker Pam, played by Alaya F along with Sonakshi Sinha in a special appearance, and Prithviraj Sukumaran as the antagonist.

For the unversed, the film’s title bears its resemblance to the 1998 film which was picturized on Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda, however the story of this 2024 entertainer is completely different from the action-comedy.

Presented by Pooja Entertainment and Ali Abbas Zafar Films, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan is produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Jackky Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh, Ali Abbas Zafar and Himanshu Kishan Mehra. Also, written and directed by Ali, the film is shot extensively across the country as well as a major portion being shot internationally, especially in Jordan. The film, which also features an ensemble supporting cast, released in theatres on April 11, during the occasion of Eid.

‘I lied to get the part’: Melvyn Hayes on his ‘angry young man’ beginnings – and It Ain’t Half Hot Mum

-
He was tipped to be the next Richard Burton – but ended up as crossdressing Gunner Gloria in the now controversial sitcom. As his breakthrough classic returns to the screen, Hayes looks back One day in 1957, Melvyn Hayes was on the set of a film called Woman in a Dressing Gown when a man sat down next to him. “I was getting paid £5 a day and I’d been on location for three days,” the actor recalls. “All I had to do was walk up to a house and put a newspaper through a letterbox. That was my part. Finished. I said to this bloke, ‘I can’t believe the waste of money on this film. Take me. You could have got a newspaper boy on £1 a day to do what I’m doing.’ Then I said, ‘What do you do then, you lazy bugger?’ And he said, ‘I’m the producer.’” Hayes, now 89, giggles at the memory of the cheek of himself at 23. Back then, £5 a day was a decent whack. His first job in showbiz, in the early 1950s, was as assistant to The Great Masoni, a magician who tasked Hayes with “disappearing twice daily...

The Human Surge 3 review – hopeful odyssey of globe-trotting twentysomethings

-
Eduardo Williams’ opaque sequel follows a group of twentysomethings in Sri Lanka, Peru and Taiwan with a 360-degree VR camera Following his Locarno festival-winning experimental film The Human Surge in 2016 , Argentinian director Eduardo Williams apparently couldn’t be bothered with part two – which doesn’t exist – and skips straight to number three. That’s also the opaque MO with which he operates in this similarly continent-hopping odyssey; a bleary trail of hopeful and restless peregrinations and chat from three groups of twentysomethings in Sri Lanka, Peru and Taiwan, who often stray without warning into each other’s segments while declaring things like: “I want to see maps of nearby regions and listen to the dreams of my crazy friends.” Filmed with a 360-degree VR camera that orbits around these pilgrims, a full-blown digital-age existential crisis seems to be in force here. People bemoan bullshit jobs, parse language disparities, contemplate post-tsunami building methods in Sri...
