    Polanski: The Highs and Lows

    • 30 Jan 2012

    Here he comes again: Roman Polanski has a new film out this week, and although he hasn’t set foot in the United States since he fled from a prison term on charges of statutory rape in 1977, like his last film, The Ghost, it’s set in an entirely convincing America, in this case a handsome New York apartment, and it’s performed by a quartet of Hollywood stars (Jodie Foster, Kate Winslet, John C Reilly and Christoph Waltz). Carnage fits very easily into a body of work that isn Read more

    Toronto 2010 Round II:
    Black Swan, Let Me In, Nicole Kidman, Clive Owen and Freida Pinto

    • 17 Sep 2010

    It seemed like almost all the best films on display at this year’s TIFF were not for the squeamish.

Beatty was one of the A-listers who stumped up cash in a bid to try and hunt down the killers of his pal Roman Polanski's pregnant wife Sharon Tate, who was slaughtered at her Los Angeles home by members of the Manson clan in 1969. The cult-like group, led by Manson, was also responsible for killing six other L.A. high-flyers, and Manson... Read more

    The Unborn

    • 23 Feb 2009

    Casey (Odette Yustman) is out jogging when she spots a discarded glove in the path. On further investigation, this would seem to belong to a seriously creepy undead child with big blue eyes, or maybe it’s connected to that nasty masked dog? So what does she do but go digging in the woods nearby… Then she wakes up. Spooky dream sequences aside, The Unborn is a disappointing effort from David S. Goyer, Christopher Nolan’s writing partner on the last two Batman films, and the... Read more
