The complexity of Hiatus Kaiyote’s blue-eyed soul, which boasts layers of instrumentation and sonic details, only partially masks their rudimentary chord progressions and repetitive song structures. And despite the tonal and sensory aims of the band’s music—they’re clearly going for a kind of rapturous delirium—their lyrics are often silly and too earnest by half. All of this is more apparent than ever on the Australian quartet’s Love Heart Cheat Code.
For one, the arresting polyrhythms of “Telescope,” led by Perrin Moss’s spry drums and Paul Bender’s loping bass, are undermined by the decision to interpolate the Temptations’s iconic “My Girl,” as singer Nai Palm almost laughably wonders, “What can make me feel this way?/Is it kush? Or outer space?/And space is the place.” The song never gets past the vaguest intimations of the cosmic and the broadest of references to altered perception.

It is always a nice surprise when someone very talented and famous also turns out to be a very pleasant, down to earth person, and that is the case with Eddie Peng, the Taiwanese superstar whose career spans over two decades. His success didn't happen over night though, and it took his collaboration with Ann Hui on two titles to prove the versatility of his acting performance: war drama set up in the 1940s “Our Time Will Come” (2017), and romance “Love After Love” (2020). Already before this international breakthrough, Peng had a huge teenage following due to the success of Yang Daqing's TV series adaptation of the popular manga “Tomorrow” (2002). One could say that he was never shy of testing his acting capabilities by diving into diverse projects from romantic comedies and dramas, to adrenaline pumped action movies, which made him one of the most popular actors on the Asian continent.

Chaos reigned at the Brussels premiere of “Love Lies Bleeding” on Saturday, after a barrage of homophobic and misogynistic comments during the screening led to a mass walkout followed by retaliatory protests and a police response. More than 60 queer women stormed out of the regional premiere once the screening turned toxic, while screening organizers claim at least three instances of physical violence.
“Things spun wildly out of hand,” attendee Elina Fischer tells Variety. Calling their experience “traumatic and horrible,” Fischer adds: “We were afraid for our lives, because the kinds of people who say such things during a film screening are the kinds of people who assault us. So we got scared and had to get out.”
After premiering to critical acclaim out of Sundance and Berlin, Rose Glass’ A24-produced thriller has yet to see wide release in Francophone Europe – making the recent screening at the Brussels International Fantastic...

Amazon’s MGM Studios has won a competitive bidding war to adapt Vanity Fair’s story surrounding a Texas serial killer, titled “True Crime, True Faith: The Serial Killer and the Texas Mom Who Stopped Him,” according to media reports.
Published in this September’s issue, the piece by Julie Miller walks through the 1981 abduction of Texas mother Margy Palm by serial killer Stephen Morin outside of a Kmart during the holidays. Following her abduction, Palm discussed her religious faith with Morin, eventually convincing him to let her go.
While Morin was sentenced to jail time for the abduction, a friendly relationship lingered between the pair, leading to Palm to visit Morin in prison on over a dozen occasions with Morin sending cards to Palm. Their friendship clearly had a profound impact on Morin, as he converted to Christianity after his conviction, before eventually dying at the age of 34 in 1985 via lethal injection.

Exclusive: After circling rights for weeks to the buzzy Vanity Fair article “True Crime, True Faith: The Serial Killer and the Texas Mom Who Stopped Him,” Amazon MGM Studios has locked them down, Deadline understands.
Executive producer and production attachments on True Crime, True Faith are premature and cannot be confirmed at this time.
While certain buyers had been looking at developing the piece for film, it seems that the Amazon adaptation will be a series. Details have yet to emerge about creatives involved behind the camera, and of course, discussions on casting have not started given the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike.
Published by Julie Miller on August 9, the Vanity Fair article tells for the first time the full story of Margy Palm, a religious Texas mother who was abducted by serial killer Stephen Morin outside of a Kmart while shopping for Christmas gifts on December 11, 1981. Palm spent eight hours...

Amazon has emerged the victor in another massive bidding war.
Following a competitive process, the Jennifer Salke-led streamer’s MGM Studios has won the rights to adapt the Vanity Fair story, “True Crime, True Faith: The Serial Killer and the Texas Mom Who Stopped Him,” which ran in the magazine’s September issue. The Julie Miller-penned piece reveals the story behind the 1981 abduction of Margy Palm by serial killer Stephen Morin outside a Texas Kmart. Though Morin never gained the pop culture notoriety of Ted Bundy or Jeffrey Dahmer, he was suspected of more murders than either was convicted of.
As Miller’s story showcases, Palm, who ultimately escaped, maintained a relationship with her captor. In fact, after Morin’s arrest, he began calling, writing and even sending Palm Christmas cards from prison. According to Miller, a friendship of sorts took hold, with Palm visiting Morin behind bars roughly 15 times,...

A year after collecting his second Palme d‘Or for “The Triangle of Sadness,” Ruben Östlund bestowed the same honor to Justine Triet’s “Anatomy of a Fall,” a thought-provoking legal drama which purports to investigate the guilt or innocence of a popular novelist (Sandra Hüller), accused of murdering her husband. But the film is every bit as much an inquest into their marriage, bringing private details from the couple’s personal life into the courtroom for the press, public and audiences to dissect, as if under a microscope.
Triet is only the third woman to win the Palme d’Or. The prize was presented by Jane Fonda, who remarked on how far Cannes has come — setting a record for female representation, with seven woman helmers in competition this year — since the American star first attended. In accepting the award, Triet made a point of acknowledging the protests against French pension reform,...
