A Mother's Lens: Inside Making Marie Antoinette (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Twenty years after Sofia Coppola's "Marie Antoinette" hit theaters, we're talking about the documentary her late mother Eleanor quietly built from 80 hours of behind the scenes footage. It's a film about Versailles gowns and edible gelatin feasts on the surface, but underneath it's a mother watching her daughter become an artist, and wondering out loud what she gave up to get there.
Drill, Baby, Drill: Inside Digger's Disaster (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Tom Cruise plays a fossil fuel titan under mountains of jowly makeup, Alejandro G. Iñárritu wants to make his generation's "Dr. Strangelove," and somewhere in between the two, "Digger" forgets to be funny. We break down why a $125 million climate satire built for maximum importance ends up feeling like a lecture instead of a warning.
Nolan's Race to Lose? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
With "The Odyssey" leading the pack, we break down the shifting 2027 Oscar race - Julianne Moore's showstopping frontrunner turn, Sandra Hüller's chaotic multi-film campaign, and whether Netflix's "La Bola Negra" can pull off a Best Picture upset. Plus: which fall festival premieres could still shake up the field.
All Charm, No Plot (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson play fictionalized versions of themselves in Apple TV's "Brothers," investigating whether they might secretly be related. We talk about why their easy real-life chemistry can't paper over a show that's afraid to get messy, and what happens when star power stands in for actual substance.
Austen, But Make It Muddy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Georgia Oakley takes on Sense and Sensibility with mud, moody light, and a whole lot of dogs. Is a more serious Austen still Austen? We talk about what works, what's missing, and why the villain steals the show.
