  Berlinale 2009: Day 8

  • 17 Feb 2009

  Miscasts, Sex Bombs and Sinners at Berlinale. Miscasting is the topic of the eighth day at the Berlinale.

Nevertheless, the film, which is set in the 50s and based on the childhood memories of US... Read more

So promised the writer-director Anthony Minghella the last time I saw him, in the autumn of 2006, with a combination of resolve and humility which was typical of the man. It's a great shame we have been robbed of his talent at an age (54) when so much more could have been expected. Erudite, loquacious, gracious and accomplished, Minghella was always a pleasure to...
