Marty Supreme review – Timothée Chalamet a smash in spectacular screwball ping-pong nightmare

-
Following every dizzying spin of Chalamet’s table tennis hustler, Josh Safdie’s whip-crack comedy serves sensational shots – and a smart return by Gwyneth Paltrow This new film from Josh Safdie has the fanatical energy of a 149-minute ping pong rally carried out by a single player running round and round the table. It’s a marathon sprint of gonzo calamities and uproar, a sociopath-screwball nightmare like something by Mel Brooks – only in place of gags, there are detonations of bad taste, cinephile allusions, alpha cameos, frantic deal-making, racism and antisemitism, sentimental yearning and erotic adventures. It’s a farcical race against time where no one needs to eat or sleep. Timothée Chalamet plays Marty Mauser, a spindly motormouth with the glasses of an intellectual, the moustache of a movie star and the physique of a tiny cartoon character (though that could just be the initials). He’s loosely inspired by Marty “The Needle” Reisman, a real-life US table tennis champ from the ...

EXCLUSIVE: Wamiqa Gabbi, Siddhant Chaturvedi starrer to be shot in Europe in October

-

Last week, news of Wamiqa Gabbi and Siddhant Chaturvedi, who did a music video together, are expected to explore their chemistry even further by collaborating for a film, which is expected to be a light-hearted family entertainer. The movie is directed by Vikas Bahl along with Jaya Bachchan too playing a key role. Now, the latest update on that front is that the film will be shot in Europe.

While there were rumours that the untitled entertainer is set against the backdrop of Goa, sources close to the film have confirmed that it will be shot against the picturesque backdrop of a European country. The source went on to add, “Wamiqa Gabbi has already left for the shoot along with the rest of the team and Vikas Bahl. The movie will be going on floors on Wednesday, October 16”. If these sources are to be believed, Siddhant Chaturvedi too will be soon taking off to the continent to complete a major portion of the film. However, it is unclear whether Jaya Bachchan will be flying off or whether her scenes will be shot within this country itself.

Speaking about the film, earlier reports suggested that the film will be a romantic drama with Jaya essaying the role of Wamiqa. This marks Vikas Bahl’s first association with Mrs. Bachchan and the latter’s second project in the last five years after the highly successful Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani.

Coming to the professional commitments of the actors, Wamiqa is juggling between multiple projects including the upcoming release of Varun Dhawan, Keerthy Suresh starrer Baby John in December. On the other hand, Siddhant Chaturvedi too is expected to have a packed schedule with Dhadak 2 starring Triptii Dimri and with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Tum Hi Ho with Mrunal Thakur in the pipeline.

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...
