Jafar Panahi's Palme d'Or winner, IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT, is now playing in New York and Los Angeles theatres. A film of blistering rage and implacable moral authority, in which Panahi's presence, experience and courage are stamped into every frame: newyorker.com/culture/the-cuā¦

I talked to Jacob Elordi about becoming the Creature in Guillermo del Toroās remarkable take on FRANKENSTEIN for LA Times. With input from the master of monsters himself (@RealGDT) and makeup artist Mike Hill on the beauty and rage of Elordiās performance.

THE MASTERMIND is one of Kelly Reichardt's finest films, a sad, funny look at a going-nowhere sad-sack whose unremarkable life is slipping through his fingers. (It's also a heist movie.) Here's my @Screendaily review. screendaily.com/reviews/the-ā¦

Adding, yet again , to the chorus that #KissOfTheSpiderWoman is excellent. At the press conference, Jennifer Lopez, Tonatiuh & Filmmaker Bill Condon all spoke about its highlights - of which, there are many.

The UK selected the Nigeria-set film MY FATHERāS SHADOW as its Oscar entry. This stunning debut by Akinola Davies Jr. unfolds over a single day when two young siblings spend time with their dad in Lagos as people await elections results. Loved this one. My review in first reply.
