Per Showtime, “Cosby, the renowned comedian, actor, philanthropist, and African American icon, who for decades was revered as ‘America’s Dad,’ has gained infamy as a criminal defendant in a sexual-assault prosecution. The series explores the complex story of Cosby’s life and work, weighing his actions against his indisputable global influence through interviews with comedians, cultural commentators, journalists, and women who share their most personal, harrowing encounters with Cosby.” The series uses archival footage and testimony to shed new light on “Cosby’s cultural contributions and impact at the height of his disgrace — accused of rape, drug-facilitated sexual assault, sexual battery, and other misconduct by more than 60 women as far back as nearly 60 years....
These moves would be terrible news for theaters; it would leave them without a significant theatrical release until “No Time To Die” on November 20. (Presuming, of course, that 007 stays put.) Worse, it begs the question of how long they can remain in operation without fresh product. However, the factors that inform Disney’s decision making are governed by multiple factors, all of which are out of the studio’s control....
The result is an intimate look at one of the most popular musical acts in the world, the kind that have so many accolades on their dedicated Wikipedia “awards and nominations page” that a copious amount of scrolling is required to reach the bottom. Little of it will surprise the group’s long-time fans (or, as popular parlance now deems them, “stans”) and it will likely spark interested newbies to seek out further information, but “Blackpink: Light Up the Sky” does a stellar job of introducing Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa as individuals....
The author told The New Yorker how it took decades for Andrew Dominik to adapt her 2000 novel inspired by the life of Marilyn Monroe in part due to actresses like Naomi Watts “aging out” of the role, as well as the “brutal” assaults conveyed. “Blonde” stars Ana de Armas as Monroe and is currently in theaters before premiering on Netflix September 28. “Because of the MeToo movement, there’s much more latitude in listening to or paying respect to women who have been victimized,” Oates said of the subject matter today....
With so much Oscar season experience under his belt, Cooper has learned something important about the awards circuit: It’s “utterly meaningless.” Interview magazine recently paired Cooper with “Hamilton” and “In the Heights” actor Anthony Ramos for a frank discussion about their careers. Cooper directed Ramos in “A Star Is Born,” where the latter played the best friend of Lady Gaga’s character. When the discussion turned to awards season, Ramos and Cooper got honest about the perils of the circuit....
Although much of the film deals with the protagonist trying to escape her past, she finds comfort through an unlikely friendship with her car mechanic James (Henry), who also lives with a disability stemming from a traumatic event. Henry had many reasons for wanting to play James, from a desire to work with Oscar winner Lawrence, to finally finding a project where his friend and fellow Yale alum Lila Neugebauer would direct him, to telling a story about making it through to the other side of a trauma....
MUBI took an early lead in acquisitions, scooping up Léa Mysius’s sophomore film “The Five Devils” and Park Chan-wook’s mystery “Decision to Leave” in recent weeks. Other films arriving with distribution include Brett Morgen’s David Bowie doc “Moonage Daydream,” from Neon. A24 has five films premiering at Cannes, including Alex Garland’s “Men” and Claire Denis’ “The Stars at Noon.” Still up for grabs are films like “Hunt,” the directorial debut of “Squid Game” star Lee Jung-jae, and Arnaud Desplechin’s “Brother and Sister....
“Is it ‘Thunderball’ or ‘Goldfinger’ where, like, basically Sean Connery’s character rapes a woman?” Fukunaga said. “She’s like ‘No, no, no,’ and he’s like, ‘Yes, yes, yes.’ That wouldn’t fly today.” Fukunaga continued, “I think that’s the expectation, a female writing very strong female roles, but that’s something [producer] Barbara [Broccoli] wanted already. From my very first conversations with [Broccoli], that was a very strong drive. You can’t change Bond overnight into a different person....
Beyond all that, “TÁR” is a treatise on modern times. Lydia’s experiences with social media and repercussions for her actions register as an angry response to the age of accountability. Yet even as the movie premiered to raves Venice and Telluride, Field and Blanchett have been careful about how much they have addressed these issues in limited press for the movie. This week, as “TÁR” made its North American premiere at the New York Film Festival ahead of its theatrical release, the movie’s director and star sat down with IndieWire at the Whitby Hotel to dig into the themes that emerge from Lydia’s story and how they address contemporary circumstances....
As we already suspect — and as Isaac learns the hard way — the title of Irish filmmaker Damian Mc Carthy’s “Caveat” wryly undersells the dangers at hand. The first red flag is the house is located on the middle of its own tiny island in the middle of nowhere. Even more alarming: Isaac reveals that he doesn’t know how to swim. It’s the second asterisk that would probably inspire most people, no matter how cash-strapped, to seek other opportunities: Moe’s twentysomething niece Olga (an opaque yet believably dangerous Leila Sykes) has a fear of being attacked in her sleep, so Isaac will be leashed to a thick chain that doesn’t extend far enough to access her bedroom....
Bale revealed to GQ that in the case of the 2013 film “American Hustle,” he was a mediator between co-star Amy Adams and Russell. “Look, if I feel like we got anywhere close — and you only ever get somewhere close to achieving; our imagination is too incredible to ever entirely achieve it — but if you get anywhere close to it, and when you’re working with people of the crazy creative talent of Amy or of David, there are gonna be upsets,” Bale said....
The series stars Adhir Kalyan and Parker Young in a comedy about the friendship between Riley (Young), a Marine combat veteran struggling to readjust to civilian life in Ohio, and Awalmir (“Al”) (Kalyan), the interpreter who served with his unit in Afghanistan and has just arrived to start a new life in America. Elizabeth Alderfer, Dean Norris, Kelli Goss, and Farrah Mackenzie also star. Lorre will act as a producer alongside David Goetsch & Maria Ferrari....
Leachman was born in Des Moines, Iowa on April 30, 1926. She started acting as a teenager, and after graduating high school she enrolled at Northwestern University in its School of Education. Her classmates included fellow comics Paul Lynde and Charlotte Rae. In 1946, Leachman participated in the Miss America pageant where she placed in the top 16. She used the scholarship she won to attend the famed Actors Studio in New York City, learning under acclaimed director Elia Kazan....
The real news stems from where it played. Though the total theater count was below that of two holdovers (in part because many drive-ins are now closed, and open Regal theaters didn’t play it), nearly all exhibitors showed it. That’s a big deal because the current plan is to release “Come Play” on Premium VOD November 20. That’s a three-week theatrical window, and almost no one blinked. Focus is a division of Universal, which negotiated a 17-day PVOD window with AMC earlier this year....
The Blu-Ray set, which will release on November 24,will include several features, including 4K restorations of 11 of the films, as well as uncompressed monaural soundtracks for each title.

According to Cronenberg, Coppola went out of his way to make sure people knew that not everyone supported “Crash,” which bowed in the main competition and received a Special Jury Award created exclusively for it, since other people opposed its Palme d’Or contention. And those people, according to Cronenberg, were pretty much just Coppola. “Coppola was totally against it,” Cronenberg said. “I think he was the primary one. When I’m asked why [‘Crash’] got this Special Jury Award, well, I think it was the jury’s attempt to get around the Coppola negativity, because they had the power to create their own award without the president’s approval....
“Curb Your Enthusiasm” Season 10’s grand finale revolved around the reveal of Larry David’s coffee shop Latte Larry’s, a “spite store,” as he put it, started to put Mocha Joe’s — whose coffee Larry deemed cold and whose tables he deemed wobbly — out of business. According to “Curb” writer and Season 10 showrunner Jeff Schaffer, who recently participated in a virtual Q&A for new start-up In Creative Company with IndieWire’s Managing Editor Christian Blauvelt, the show’s team was actually planning a Latte Larry’s pop-up in Los Angeles back in February....
