Released in 1940, Pinocchio was Disney’s second animated feature. It tells the story of the title character, a puppet made by the kindly Geppetto and brought to life by the Blue Fairy after he wishes upon a star. Jiminy Cricket, who witnesses the magic, is assigned as Pinocchio’s conscience as he is told he must be brave, truthful, and unselfish if he is to become a real boy. However, temptation makes his path more complicated. Boasting 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, it remains one of the best-loved Disney movies, because of its technical wizardry, its moral message, and its classic music.…
Though it was not entirely without precedent as the progenitor of faux-found-footage horror, few films have been more widely imitated than 1999’s “The Blair Witch Project” — if only because its premise was so, well, economical. With no pressing need for FX, sets, name actors or stunts, just about anyone could make a marketable knockoff. Unfortunately, almost everyone did, creating an overtaxed genre where mediocre, sometimes barely-watchable titles far outnumber the few inspired entries. A notch above-average on that narrow scale, but still falling a bit short, is Canadian actor Markian Tarasiuk’s feature directorial debut. “Hunting Matthew Nichols” earns points…
Whether it is a new series like The Madison starring Kurt Russell and Michelle Pfeiffer, or Marshals starring Luke Grimes, or more established shows such as the hugely popular Landman, Tulsa King, and Mayor of Kingstown, there’s no escaping the fact that Taylor Sheridan is the king of Paramount+. That being said, the man himself is now set to leave the streamer, officially heading the way of NBCUniversal under a massive long-term film and television deal. Will his shows still prove popular on the streaming site? Most likely, but it will be fascinating to see what happens in this next…
It’s a big week for Barbie Ferreira, who delivers powerful leading performances in two drastically different new movies. With horror reimagining Faces of Death now in theaters, and music-driven romantic comedy Mile End Kicks premiering April 17, the actress spoke to Deadline about “spreading my wings” after leaving Euphoria back in 2022. “It just felt like for me, what I wanted to do is act and be able to do different roles, and if Euphoria was going to serve that for me, I would have happily done it forever, however long it would have been,” she explained. “But It wasn’t…
In an age where it’s far too common to conform to mediocrity and sell out, you have to respect Kevin Costner’s ambition. When he embarks on a new project, he goes for broke. In the case of Horizon: An American Saga, Costner put his money where his mouth was. The actor-director’s audacious vision can amount to unlikely triumphs like Dances with Wolves or grave follies like Waterworld and The Postman. But with each project, he always did it his way. With Horizon, we have yet to see Costner fulfill his vision due to the financial and critical disappointment of Horizon:…

She entered the big leagues with the record-breaking success of The Queen’s Gambit, which remains one of Netflix’s most watched original shows of all time, even six years after its premiere. Taylor-Joy landed the highly sought-after titular role in George Miller’s Mad Max prequel, taking over the character…
Euphoria is finally returning for its third season on HBO following major delays and multiple cast deaths off screen — but when do the new episodes air? HBO confirmed that the show is coming back on April 12 at 9 p.m. ET. In a press release, creator Sam Levinson teased story lines for each character in the show’s final season. “We basically pick up Rue [Zendaya] south of the border in Mexico, in debt to Laurie [Martha Kelly], trying to come up with some very innovative ways to pay it off,” he revealed about Rue ending season 2 sober — but…
