Cover-Up review – atrocity exposer Seymour Hersh, journalist legend, gets a moment in the spotlight

-
Hersh’s record on uncovering the big stories, from My Lai to Abu Ghraib, speaks for itself. This documentary watches him at work: dogged, nonconformist and combative Renowned investigative journalist Seymour Hersh was never played in a film by Robert Redford or Dustin Hoffman, like the Washington Post’s Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. But as this documentary portrait argues, he’s probably more important than either. Hersh has a longer record of breaking big stories, from the My Lai massacre in Vietnam to torture by US army personnel at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq – the latter a historic scoop underscored by the stomach-turning photos which Hersh brought to light. Hersh is asked if Abu Ghraib would have been the story it was without those pictures and replies: “No pictures, no story.” Well, maybe. But his other scoops had no pictures of this kind. One incidental thing Abu Ghraib showed was how ubiquitous digital photography became at the beginning of the century; how easy it was to take...

-

The much-anticipated sequels to Salman Khan's Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Akshay Kumar's Rowdy Rathore seem to be inching closer to reality. Producer KK Radhamohan provided updates on these projects while promoting Aayush Sharma's upcoming film Ruslaan in Hyderabad.

As per a report by Hindustan Times, in a recent interaction with the press, Radhamohan acknowledged the presence of renowned writer Vijayendra Prasad and disclosed that the writer has crafted a couple of compelling scripts for him. "Vijayendra Prasad has written two stories for me," he revealed, with Prasad acknowledging the statement with a smile. 

"One is Vikramarkudu 2, which is Rowdy Rathore 2 in Hindi. The subject is ready; we're just looking for a good cast now," Radhamohan added. Additionally, he hinted at a sequel to Bajrangi Bhaijaan, pending Salman Khan's approval. "He has also readied the script for Bhajrangi Bhaijaan 2. Soon, he'll narrate it to Salman bhai, and we'll see what happens next."

Salman Khan had previously hinted at a sequel for Bajrangi Bhaijaan during a promotional event for RRR in Mumbai back in 2021. Referring to his strong relationship with SS Rajamouli and his father, Salman stated, "I have a strong relationship with Rajamouli and his father, as he wrote Bajrangi Bhaijaan and soon we will be working together again for Bajrangi Bhaijaan 2."

Coming back to Ruslaan, helmed by Karan Lalit Butani, it is slated to release on April 26. Besides Aayush, the film also stars Sushrii Shreya Mishraa, Jagapathi Babu and Vidya Malvade.

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...
