Ghost Town
- 20 Oct 2008
Bertram Pincus. Who else but Ricky Gervais could do justice to a name like that? Bertram is a British dentist in New York. A bone fide misanthropist, you have to say he’s in the right profession (and the right city). Social interaction is kept to a bare minimum. If anyone does try to get too chatty he tells them to open wide and leaves them hanging.

Both were huge box office hits in the early 1970s, though neither quite propelled him into the A-list. He was also in Klute, Marathon Man and All That Jazz (his best... Read more

- 09 Feb 2009
From bad bankers to singing nuns: Berlinale 2009 is open. Are cinema goers - public and press alike - milder in their judgements in times of ecomonic turmoil? The opening of the 59th Berlin Film Festival might lead you to think so. When actors Clive Owen, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Ulrich Thomsen and Axel Milberg turned out along with director Tom Tykwer to present their film The International, it received resounding applause, even at the lunch time press showing. The reason for this is indeed... Read more
