Many great love stories involve a train. Before Sunrise saw Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy’s characters meet while journeying across Europe, resulting in an incredible tale of romance and connection, while Marilyn Monroe becomes the object of affection for two men disguised as women in Billy Wilder’s classic comedy Some Like It Hot.

Tue 13 May 2025 18:45, UK There are opinionated celebrities out there, and then there’s Quentin Tarantino. The director, who rose to prominence in the 1990s with films like Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, is a huge cinephile, and with that comes plenty of strong opinions about movies.

Tue 13 May 2025 17:45, UK Few people in Hollywood can say they’ve been in the industry for as long as Ron Howard. You might know him best as a director, having helmed titles as diverse as Apollo 13 and How The Grinch Stole Christmas – or perhaps you recognise him from his role in Happy Days during the 1970s – but Howard has been working in the industry before he even had a firm grasp on the English language.

Tue 13 May 2025 16:45, UK The late 1960s and early 1970s marked a transformative time for cinema.

Tue 13 May 2025 13:30, UK It’s absurd to think that less than 100 years ago, it was incredibly taboo for a woman to wear trousers. Today, they are a staple part of every modern woman’s wardrobe, but before World War Two, women were rarely seen in them, and in some cases, they could even be arrested for wearing trousers in public. However, with the help of certain public figures like Katharine Hepburn, the idea of women wearing trousers eventually became less offensive in widespread consciousness.

Some actors go their whole careers without appearing in an Oscar-nominated movie; that’s just the nature of the industry. However, John Cazale was quite the opposite, appearing in five movies during his short time as an actor, all of which earned ‘Best Picture’ nominations, with three of these winning the coveted prize. Cazale’s story is one that is deeply tragic, though, because despite his incredible talents, he sadly passed away at the age of 42 in 1978.

“Baby wants blue velvet,” says the menacing Frank Booth, portrayed with a twisted blend of vulnerability and psychopathic relentlessness by Dennis Hopper in David Lynch’s 1986 psychosexual thriller Blue Velvet. This occurs during one of the most unforgettable moments in the film, with Frank huffing gas before he assumes the roles of ‘Baby’ and ‘Daddy’ as he engages in bizarre and sadistic acts with his sex slave, Dorothy Valens.

Mon 12 May 2025 17:15, UK There are times when an actor simply knows that the project they’ve signed up for is bound for glory. With a fantastic cast, a large budget, an acclaimed director, and a good screenplay, an actor can be safe in the knowledge that the film they’re set to star in will do them justice. However, the same can be said inversely; sometimes, an actor just knows that a movie is doomed from the start.
