Fantaisie review – study of a modern Ophelia swamped by audiovisual overwhelm

-
Isabel Pagliai’s film introduces her central character Louise with a thrillingly eclectic blend of handheld footage and cascades of still images Reminiscent of a dark fairytale, Isabel Pagliai’s feature debut conjures a multitude of thresholds, lingering somewhere between documentary and fiction, dream and reality. Louise, the young woman at the centre of this beguiling film, is a mirage of a character; introduced in fragments, we first hear her lilting lamentations against a darkened screen. This is followed by closeups of a yellow notebook, in which her fears and desires overflow on every page, as they are read out by a mysterious, unseen man. When Louise finally materialises on screen, her everyday existence unfurls over deceptively mundane episodes. Through these sequences, Pagliai builds a fascinating tension between the stillness of the compositions and Louise’s agitated psyche. She is often seen in darkness, her face lit by the glow of various screen devices that flicker with ...

SCOOP: Battle Of Galwan makers considering June 2026 release; shoot of Salman Khan-starrer wraps up in December

-

Bollywood Hungama has been at the forefront in delivering exciting and exclusive news about Battle Of Galwan, one of the most awaited films of 2026. It stars Salman Khan in a never-before-seen avatar, as evident from the first look of the film. Yesterday, the actor posted his two shirtless images which wowed his fans as he looked quite fit and desirable. There have been speculations on the internet about the film’s release date and in this article, Bollywood Hungama will report on the same, as per the information derived from credible sources.

A source told us, “The shooting began in September in Ladakh and a major chunk of the film has been shot. The team have already filmed key challenging and action sequences. The shooting will be wrapped up in December, after which director Apoorva Lakhia will completely focus on the post-production.”

In July, Bollywood Hungama had reported that the makers of Battle Of Galwan plan to release the film either in January or June 2026. On this, the source said, “A January release obviously won’t be possible now. But June is seriously being considered, although the team is also looking to see if there’s an ideal release date in the months of July and August next year.”

Recently, Shah Rukh Khan fans got a treat as their favourite star unveiled the massy glimpse of his next film, King, on his 60th birthday, on November 2. This has enhanced hopes of Salman Khan fans who are expecting that an announcement video or teaser of Battle Of Galwan would be dropped when their star turns 60 on December 27. However, sources had no idea whether something related to the war film has been planned for December 27.

Besides Salman Khan, Battle Of Galwan also stars Chitrangda Singh. Salman plays the role of Colonel Bikkumalla Santosh Babu in this film, which is based from a chapter in the book ‘India’s Most Fearless 3’ (2022), authored by Shiv Aroor and Rahul Singh. There were reports that Amitabh Bachchan will feature in a cameo. But recently, Apoorva Lakhia confirmed that the reports are not true.

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...
