In Joachim Trier’s Sentimental Value, his follow-up to the widely beloved The Worst Person in the World (2022), the director explores the relationship between a disappointing dad and his two daughters.

The American director goes behind the scenes of Breathless’ historic production for a film that embraces Jean-Luc Godard’s cinephile passion and formal imagination. 23 May 2025Reviewed from the 2025 Cannes Film Festival“The best way to criticise a film is to make one,” runs the famous Godard axiom, and perhaps the same goes for loving one, where the criticism takes the form of a thoroughgoing attention to all the finer points.

Reviewed from the 2025 Cannes Film FestivalLong live Spike Lee and long live Denzel Washington. The filmmaker and the towering star of some of his greatest films – not least Malcolm X – are together again for Lee’s latest joint, Highest 2 Lowest, a corporate drama and crime thriller combined into one that’s all about power, money, and self-interest in the world of modern Black capitalism and the music biz.

In what is probably his final outing as Ethan Hunt, Tom Cruise squares up against AI in a series of spectacular set-pieces in the sky and sea. 23 May 2025Ethan Hunt’s adversary in the eighth and final (?) Mission: Impossible is AI, but his nemesis, all along, has been gravity. The first he will gladly destroy, taking the internet with it, but the other he has kept coming back to, most memorably in the ‘black vault’ at Langley in the first film and the Burj Khalifa sequence in the fourth.

Italian filmmaker Roberto Rossellini caused scandal in both his life and work; his filmmaking was unorthodox and experimental; his interests adventurous and multifaceted. ‘Il miracolo’, from his two-story anthology film L’amore (1948), was denounced as blasphemous and banned in the US before the ban was overturned by the US Supreme Court. His high-profile extra-marital affairs with Swedish mega-star Ingrid Bergman and Indian screenwriter Sonali DasGupta triggered international outrage.

Ethnography is deeply rooted in the traditions of the European film festival circuit and the arthouse sector that developed alongside it, a project espousing cultural curiosity and paying lip service to diversity, but somewhat shaded by post-colonial whitewashing. Nevertheless, it has to be an encouraging sign that filmmakers from Bhutan (The Monk and the Gun, 2023), Nepal (Shambhala, 2024) and, in this case, Mongolia are finally getting homegrown films noticed at an international level.
