I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
NAZA, which won a Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival Saturday night, is already one of the most shocking and controversial documentaries of the year. It may also prove to be one of the most indispensable. The exposé, from Israeli directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, features testimony from 24 Israeli military officers…
There are of course many viewers out there who’re passionately devoted to James Cameron’s Avatar thrill rides alongside the big blue people of Pandora. But for arthouse viewers, few directors make the case for 3D cinema, and all that investment exhibitors and customers sunk in 3D projectors and TVs, as well as Wim Wenders. He’s…
Life under ICE is like a horror movie. That’s the message of Oscar-winning documentarian Laura Poitras, whose new short documentary They’re Here chronicles how Immigration Customs Enforcement troops invaded and occupied Minneapolis last year, and the anonymous residents who resisted. Poitras co-directed They’re Here with Minneapolis-based journalist and documentarian Rachel Lauren Mueller. Using dashcam footage,…
The winning combination of whimsy, gravitas and good looks that Gael García Bernal has brought to both the big (Amores Perros, Y tu mamá tambíen) and small (Mozart in the Jungle) screens fails to translate to his second stab as director, Hombre Al Agua, an offbeat dramedy that’s too chaotic and muddled to hit its…
Many of us in America have a utopian idea of Denmark, perhaps for good reason: It ranks quite high on indexes of happiness and social infrastructure and civil rights. But, of course, any nation has its painful eras, one of which is conjured up in May el-Toukhy’s post-WWII drama Woman Unknown. The film is an…
Danish filmmaker May el-Toukhy, one of the two female directors competing for the Golden Lion this year, in Venice with a sharp, searing analysis of the women thrown to the wolves in the aftermath of World War II. Women Unknown — Scandinavian in both its aesthetic and precision — was always going to be about class, complicity…
Wim Wenders has spent much of the past three decades building portraits of other artists — the Cuban musicians of Buena Vista Social Club (1999), the choreographer Pina Bausch in Pina (2011), the photographer Sebastião Salgado in The Salt of the Earth (2014), the German painter-sculptor Anselm Kiefer in Anslem (2023). The first three were…
A funny thing happened to me while watching the new film Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger. I had been somewhat dreading the assignment, as I often find music documentaries tedious, and in particular did not want to watch two hours of brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher bickering and puffing themselves up. So I trudged…
Chris Hansen is not at the Venice Film Festival for this weekend’s world premiere of a film inspired by his work on To Catch a Predator, but the man still proved to be the center of attention during Primetime‘s press conference. “Obviously, I hope he likes the movie,” said Robert Pattinson when asked about Hansen’s…
Werner Herzog has a bit of a wild reputation. He’d like to set the record straight. “I’m the most organized, the most focused, the most friendly person you will ever see on a set,” the German director says. “Period.” Everything else, he adds, is “the craze of media who want to create a Werner Herzog…
