Polish Filmmakers Gear Up for New Political Reality: ‘Recent Years Have Been Very Difficult’

Marta Balaga Following the October parliamentary election that saw the defeat of the right-wing Law and Justice party and appointment of leader of the opposition party Donald Tusk as prime minister, Polish filmmakers are cautiously readying for change. “So far, our cinema authorities have not changed.

‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ EP Niels Juul Shopping Cecchi Gori Projects in Cannes (EXCLUSIVE)

Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent “Killers of the Flower Moon” executive producer Niels Juul is in Cannes with several projects based on IP from the vault of Italy’s storied Cecchi Gori movie company that include a remake of the Dino Risi-directed classic “Il Sorpasso” and “Kafka,” a script about the turbulent love life of Franz Kafka by John Briley (“Gandhi”). The IP and some other assets of the movie company that once dominated Italy’s film industry and collapsed in the mid-1990s were acquired late last year by a group of Italian investors under the new management of Rome-based CEO Federico Canfora and U.S-based Javier Balliero Madrid. Madrid is president of the new company, which is backing a partial relaunch of the Cecchi Gori brand, which is behind such Oscar-winners as “Life Is Beautiful,” “Mediterraneo” and “Il Postino.”

Franz Kafka’s Last Love Portrayed in TrustNordisk-Repped Drama ‘The Glory of Life’ (EXCLUSIVE)

Elsa Keslassy International Correspondent The last love of Franz Kafka, the celebrated Czech author of “Metamorphosis,” will be portrayed in romantic drama “The Glory of Life.” TrustNordisk has boarded international sales ahead of Cannes, while Majestic is handling the domestic rights. Currently shooting, “The Glory of Life” is directed by Georg Maas (“Two Lives”) and is inspired by the love story between Kafka and Dora Diamant. The period drama was penned by Michael Gutmann and Maas. Producers are Helge Sasse and Solveig Fina for Tempest Film and Tommy Pridnig for Lotus Film. Kafka and Diamant met in 1923 on the Baltic Sea coast, a year before the author died from tuberculosis. The worldly wise Diamant, who was working in a Jewish community, took him to Berlin, and as Kafka’s health deteriorates rapidly, they traveled together to a sanatorium in Austria. The memory of their time together will shape Diamant for the rest of her life.

Smashing Pumpkins’ Album Release Show: Billy Corgan Reveals Origins of ‘1979’ and How He Brought Wrestling on Tour

Sophia Scorziello editor Billy Corgan is always looking for another envelope to push. On Tuesday night, the iconoclastic Smashing Pumpkins singer and original band members James Iha and Jimmy Chamberlin held a concert at the iHeartRadio Theater in Los Angeles to welcome the third and final installment of their concept album, “Atum: A Rock Opera in Three Acts.” The band just returned from a leg of festival shows in Australia and Mexico, in which Corgan incorporated his love of wrestling by having pros battle it out in the ring in between music sets. Unfortunately, there was no wrestling at the album release show due to the intimate nature of the iHeartRadio Theater, which has a 450-person capacity limit.

‘Corner Office’ Review: Jon Hamm Switches Jobs, Playing a Dull Desk Jockey in This Indie Oddity

Peter Debruge Chief Film CriticIn “Mad Men,” Jon Hamm had his corner office: the room with a view, overlooking Madison Avenue, where Don Draper could work, drink and brainstorm in peace. Maybe that’s why the actor was drawn to playing a lowly paper-pusher with a bad mustache and big dreams of occupying such a space in “Corner Office,” a low-key, screw-loose workplace satire that offers audiences a side of Hamm they’ve never seen before — and might not be in such a hurry to experience again, unless the toil-from-home blues of the pandemic have made them receptive to the call of cubicle life.Premiering at the Tribeca Festival, “Corner Office” is director Joachim Back’s slightly taxing cinematic take on “The Room,” a slender novel by Swedish actor-cum-author Jonas Karlsson, unread by me, that bills itself as “a short, sharp and fiendish fable in the tradition of Franz Kafka, Samuel Beckett and Charlie Kauffman.” Check, check and check, insofar as those three absurdist writers are concerned, though I’d quibble with the other descriptors in that pitch.
