The images on screen of perilous mountain cliffs are perfectly framed for IMAX screens – which are currently mostly occupied by Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey. The handful of people populating these images, meanwhile, wouldn’t crack that movie’s top 20 most recognizable stars. It’s a big-screen spectacle that’s also a green-screened sequel to a movie that really made its name on streaming. Welcome to Fall 2: Deadpoint, the year’s most potent fusion of pure cinema and absolute junk. The original Fall was an unusual success story. A low-budget indie about two women who get stuck at the top of a radio…
Martin McDonagh’s latest darkly literate, offbeat comedy drama Wild Horse Nine landed on the Venetian Lido by way of Easter Island Thursday evening, giving the world’s oldest film festival its first raucous standing ovation of 2026. Set shortly before the 1973 military coup in Chile, the darkly comic and soulful buddy movie features a cast deep with prickly and poised character actors, including John Malkovich, Steve Buscemi, Tom Waits, Parker Posey and McDonagh regular, Sam Rockwell. During the lengthy standing ovation that clocked in at 14 minutes — the longest thus far at the 2026 edition — Malkovich looked visibly…

Perhaps the biggest early premiere of this year’s Venice Film Festival, Wild Horse Nine may be first out of the gate in drumming up some awards buzz. The latest from Banshees of Inisherin and In Bruges writer-director Martin McDonagh finds another duo of mismatched fellas butting heads, bantering, and reflecting on the lives they’ve lived. This time, it’s a couple of CIA agents played by two-time Academy Award nominee John Malkovich and one-time Oscar winner Sam Rockwell. The first waves of reviews for Wild Horse Nine range from middling to generally positive, with the highest praise saved for Malkovich, who…

While brown, burgundy and black bags tend to take over this time of year, her polished powder blue style makes an unexpected case for carrying a softer shade straight into the new season. The actress was spotted at the U.S. Open in New York City on August 30 carrying a powder blue Ferragamo Cara bag with a patchwork slip dress and pointed, two-tone heels. Her designer style…
Actress and producer Marta Pozzan will make her directorial debut with the dark comedy short “Down to Die.” The film follows two friends, Maria (Pozzan) and Gabriel (Andrew Matarazzo), whose seemingly ordinary afternoon at an exclusive members-only club in East Los Angeles East spirals into a candid conversation about aging, ambition, identity and mortality. Pozzan directs from her own script. Alongside Pozzan (“Fior Di Latte,” “From Scratch”) and Matarazzo (“Teen Wolf”), the cast also includes Joe Apollonio (“Magic Farm”) as Reece, the club’s ever-present membership curator whose interruptions are never quite accidental, and Lindsey Normington (“Anora”) as Noah, the effortlessly…
The telepathy wasn’t even Episode 7’s biggest technical undertaking. At just 15 minutes, the installment is the shortest of the 471 episodes produced across the “Big Bang Theory” franchise, which includes the mothership, “Young Sheldon,” “Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage,” and now “Stuart” — and according to Posehn, it was originally even shorter. “I think they had to add a scene even to get it to that 15,” he reveals. “I think it was 12 or 13 at one point, and we got it to that.” Late in the episode, Stuart and the gang rapidly cycle through universes, culminating in…
Director and editor Robert Greene continues to intriguingly blur the lines between fact, fiction and filmmaking in his new hybrid feature, Too Much Sugar, which premiered in Venice’s Orizzonti sidebar. Like his precedent efforts, Bisbee ’17 and Procession, Greene’s latest is an exercise in collaborative directing that employs real people to both be themselves and perform in movie-like reenactments, creating a unique form of cine-therapy that has become the indie auteur’s trademark. Here, he turns the camera on a pair of friends from the tiny rural enclave of Moberly, Missouri, revealing working-class men marked by euphoria and heartbreak, love and…

Some NBA fans may need to add DAZN to their streaming rotation. The streaming service announced Thursday that it has reached a deal with the Orlando Magic to become the team’s exclusive direct-to-consumer streaming partner for the 2026-27 season.
