And so, to the first full day of films at Cannes!
It’s Cannes Film Festival time, and Jack Toye is in the South of France reporting for Take One again. Blooming fantastique!
We spoke to the creators of this hot and heavy wrestling film, screened at BFI Flare, London’s LGBT Film Festival this year.
Alfonso Gomez-Rejon interplays serious subject matter with a comic and ever-so endearing charm, writes Jack Toye.
Day 4 of Jack’s Berlinale diary, in which Jack washes his hands in magic soap, braves a baying Wenders throng and ends up in a queue quandary.
The year is 2017. 100 years have passed since the Russian Revolution, and the landscape of UNDER ELECTRIC CLOUDS is in every sense clouded and cold.
Andreas Dresen’s tale, about a gang of childhood friends growing up in the suburbs of a reunified Germany in the early 90s, stomps and thrashes its way on to the big screen at Berlinale.
We spoke to Jannik Splidsboel at Berlinale about his film MISFITS, an LGBT coming-of-age documentary set in conservative Tulsa.
Jannik Splidsboel’s documentary, MISFITS, focusses on the challenging lives of three LGBT teenagers who use The Open Arms Youth Centre, Tulsa as their meeting place.
