A new trailer for Francis Ford Coppola’s forthcoming film Megalopolis was released yesterday, with a somewhat audacious marketing angle. Before the images for the director’s self-financed $120 million epic even started, the trailer featured several film review quotes from famous critics who had trashed Coppola’s previous films like The Godfather, Apocalypse Now, and Bram Stoker’s Dracula. This was apparently done to show how these films had been negatively received upon their release but are now considered classics, and that Megalopolis was fated to share the same journey. “Genius is often mis...

By Cecil MORELLA Manille (AFP) - Inspecter des sacs mortuaires, visiter des camps militaires, organiser des rassemblements, intenter des actions en justice: pendant 17 ans, Edita Burgos a tout tenté pour retrouver, en vain, son fils Jonas, disparu en 2007, une quête qu'un autre de ses fils retrace dans un documentaire. Jonas était âgé de 37 ans lorsqu'il a été embarqué par un groupe d'hommes inconnus dans un véhicule dans un centre commercial de Manille. Il était alors un éminent militant d'un groupe d'agriculteurs de gauche. Des militaires l'ont accusé d'être un chef communiste de haut rang, ...

It’s one of the most iconic movie props ever, a coveted piece of movie memorabilia for any avid collector, and it has broken the record for most expensive Indiana Jones hat. Harrison Ford’s brown felt fedora from the second instalment of the Indiana Jones series, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, more than doubled its pre-auction estimate of $250,000 to $500,000 at Propstore Los Angeles’ second Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction of 2024, and sold for a whopping $630,000 (approx. €570,000). The fedora came from the collection of the late stunt performer Dean Ferrandini, who doubled for ...

As fun and versatile as it has proven to be, even die-hard Alien fans can’t deny that the franchise has been struggling since its beginnings 45 years ago. From the anxiety-inducing huis-clos of Alien (1979) and its war film sequel Aliens (1986), the film series has had more downs than ups. David Fincher reimaged it as a prison thriller in the fairly maligned Alien 3 (1992); Jean-Pierre Jeunet gave it a good go but ended up botching Alien: Resurrection (1997); and Ridley Scott’s return to the series with 2012’s Prometheus was one almighty lore-obsessed mixed bag. The less said about the Alien v...
