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 ...

Dia Mirza and Rahul Bhat team up for Kanwal Sethi’s next romantic drama

-

Actors Rahul Bhat and Dia Mirza are all set to share the screen for the first time in an untitled love story helmed by Indo-German filmmaker Kanwal Sethi. The upcoming film, produced by Kovid Gupta Films, is said to explore love and human emotions through a mature and soulful lens, blending poetic storytelling with contemporary realism.

Rahul Bhat, known for his sharp script choices and impactful performances, continues to strengthen his reputation as one of Indian cinema’s most versatile actors. Following his acclaimed role in Black Warrant and his festival-favourite turn in Kennedy, Bhat will soon be seen in The Wives directed by Madhur Bhandarkar, as well as his Hollywood debut Lost & Found In Kumbh, alongside other upcoming projects.

The film also marks a refreshing collaboration with Dia Mirza, whose grace and emotional authenticity have long resonated with audiences. Having consistently chosen meaningful and socially conscious projects, Dia brings her characteristic depth and poise to this story of nuanced relationships.

Director Kanwal Sethi, celebrated for his work in both Indian and international cinema, is known for crafting intimate human stories with universal resonance. His upcoming venture is expected to capture the lyrical essence of romance while delving into the emotional complexities of modern love.

The project is being produced by Kovid Gupta, a filmmaker, screenwriter, and author who founded Kovid Gupta Films in 2018 with a focus on creating meaningful and engaging cinema. A former Head of Business Development at Vinod Chopra Films, Gupta is also the author of two bestselling books — Kingdom of the Soap Queen: The Story of Balaji Telefilms and Redrawing India: The Teach For India Story.

While details about the title, supporting cast, and release timeline remain under wraps, industry insiders suggest the film will be a visually rich and emotionally charged story that traverses cultural and emotional landscapes.

With Kanwal Sethi’s cross-cultural sensibilities, the fresh pairing of Rahul Bhat and Dia Mirza, and Kovid Gupta’s vision as producer, this untitled love story is already shaping up to be one of the most anticipated cinematic collaborations of the year.

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...
