I had the pleasure of meeting Donald Sutherland at the Venice Film Festival in 2019. He was attending the event for the closing film of the 76th edition, Giuseppe Capotondi’s underrated crime thriller The Burnt Orange Heresy. It was one of the last films to screen to the press that year, and the starry cast had made their way to the Lido for one of the final press conferences. Obviously, the focus of attention was Mick Jagger, who starred in the film and put on a bit of a show when he entered the press room. He was followed by the director and co-stars Claes Bang, Elizabeth Debicki and the gre...

After the box office acclaim of The Favourite and Poor Things, Yórgos Lánthimos reunites with his long-time writing partner Efthimis Filippou (Dogtooth, The Lobster, The Killing of a Sacred Deer) for a strange anthology triptych that is darker and far more surreal than his recent output. Kinds of Kindness tells three distinct stories using the same acting troupe in different roles, and it’ll prove divisive for fans of The Favourite and last year’s Poor Things. This triple helping of Lanthimos’ return to his Greek Weird Wave roots feels like it’s for the OG fans who miss that queasy malaise fel...

Los Angeles (AFP) - Donald Sutherland, the enigmatic actor whose lengthy career encompassed films including "The Dirty Dozen" and "The Hunger Games," has died, his son said Thursday. He was 88. "With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away," actor Kiefer Sutherland wrote on X. The elder Sutherland had a distinctive look -- and piercing eyes -- that brought a depth and mystery to the huge range of roles he inhabited over more than half a century on the big screen. One of Canada's most famous sons, he played dashing leading men as well as antiheroes and villa...

Los Angeles (AFP) - With his towering height and a brooding expression that veered from menacing to hilarious and heartbroken, Donald Sutherland was Hollywood's chameleon, equally at home in war, love, horror -- or playing for laughs. In a dense filmography spanning six decades, Sutherland stood out for his unusual -- even odd -- looks and an incredible range of roles, working alongside several of the greatest directors of his time. The Canadian-born actor -- who has died at age 88, his son Kiefer said Thursday -- had many standout roles, from an army surgeon in wartime comedy "MAS*H" (1970) t...

A strange and tall glimmering monolith, akin to the ones which mysteriously appeared in 2020, has popped up in Gass Peak, a hiking area in the Nevada desert just about an hour north of Las Vegas. It looks like it’s from another world, with the glimmering rectangular prism's reflective surface imitating the vast desert landscape surrounding the mountain peak where it has been erected. Where did the object come from? Is it an art installation? An elaborate prank? Is Daft Punk preparing a comeback? Or is someone just a really huge fan of Arthur C. Clark’s short story ‘The Sentinel’ and Stanley Ku...

Los Angeles (AFP) - Hollywood's alleged "wokeness" is a frequent target for right-wing commentators and politicians. But for the tiny Utah-based movie studio behind last year's huge breakout hit film "Sound of Freedom," it is a lucrative gap in the market. "Hollywood is just this bubble. They're not connected with the average person," said Angel Studios co-founder Jordan Harmon. "We make movies for the other 90 percent," he told AFP. Co-founded by four Mormon brothers, Angel Studios rocked Hollywood last July with its wildly successful thriller about a vigilante who takes on a child sex traffi...
