It’s been a few months since I saw Jane Schoenbrun’s I Saw the TV Glow at Sundance Film Festival and I haven’t been able to shake its overwhelming, ultimately terrifying power. Telling the story of Owen (played early on by Ian Foreman and later by Justice Smith in a revelatory performance) we follow a journey questioning his identity through childhood and adulthood, and particularly a special infatuation with a late-night TV show and the ineradicable bond it creates with another lonely soul, Maddy (Brigette Lundy-Paine).
As I said in my review, “The deeply expressive, imaginative ways in which Schoenbrun is able to articulate one’s struggle with identity is nothing short of staggering. This may not be a horror film in the conventional sense––in fact, every directorial decision assertively refutes convention––but I Saw the TV Glow emphatically argues nothing is more terrifying than being trapped...

“Irma Vep” wasn’t Olivier Assayas‘ first film to premiere at Cannes, (that’d be his 1994 breakthrough ‘Cold Water‘), but the 1996 film is the one that made him a star. And not just a star: the success of “Irma Vep” made Assayas an overnight sensation in French cinema. Now, over twenty-five years later, Assayas returns to his biggest hit for a 2020s update as a limited series.

Gymnastics superstar Sunisa "Suni" Lee is known for having ice water in her veins, but when it comes to meeting the singer of "Cold Water," that's a different story. Suni, 18, who earned Olympic gold in the individual all-around at the 2020 Tokyo Games, visited The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Thursday, Sept. 30. During the chat, Suni explained that one of the perks of her whirlwind rise to fame was getting to attend the 2021 Met Gala earlier this month, where she found herself in close proximity to the likes of Hailey Bieber and Justin Bieber.

Guillaume Brac's film All Hands on Deck is exclusively showing on Mubi in most countries in the series The New Auteurs, as well as the retrospective Summer Light: Films by Guillaume Brac.Just over a year ago, the director of the Cnsad (Conservatoire National Supérieur d’Art Dramatique—the Higher National Conservatoire for Dramatic Art), Claire Lasne-Darcueil, asked me to write a feature-length fiction film for a dozen young actors from the class of 2020. With one proviso: I had to shoot between summer and autumn 2019, so that the film would be finished by the time they graduated.I immediately saw this as an opportunity to paint the fictional portrait of a generation, just like Pascale Ferran did twenty-five years ago with L’âge des possibles, written for a class at the Théâtre National de Strasbourg. Or the filmmakers of two collections, Tous les garçons et les filles de leur âge and Les années lycée,...

If the only thing better than “Candle In The Wind” is “5,000 Candles In The Wind,” then the only thing better than Mouse Rat being a fake band on “Parks and Recreation” is Mouse Rat being a real band, fronted by Chris Pratt in real life. It’s happening, and their first album is coming.
Mouse Rat — who, according to their official Instagram page, is managed by April Ludgate-Dwyer — will spread their wings and fly on “The Awesome Album,” which is set to drop on August 27. We have Tom Haverford’s (Aziz Ansari) Entertainment 720 to thank for this album, as they’ve partnered up with Dualtone Music Group to make the album happen.
Naturally, the announcement of “The Awesome Album” came from the one and only Perd Hapley, on the 10th anniversary of the death of one of the show’s most famous characters: L’il Sebastian. And, like any good debut LP,...

Mouse Rat, the fictional “Parks and Recreation” band led by Chris Pratt’s character Andy Dwyer, will release a real-life record, titled “The Awesome Album.” The band’s social media accounts made the announcement Wednesday, and the album will release August 27.
The album, announced on the 10th anniversary of show’s memorial for the miniature horse Li’l Sebastian’s, opens with the series’ famous singalong “5,000 Candles in the Wind (Bye Bye Li’l Sebastian)” and features many of the other fake songs performed or mentioned in “Parks and Recreation.”
Released via DualTone and Entertainment 720, the fictional company created by Aziz Ansari’s character Tom Haverford, “The Awesome Album” will feature the grunge-rock anthem “The Pit,” inspired by Pawnee’s giant sinkhole in Season 1, and the jangly “Sex Hair,” which Mouse Rat performed at the Pawnee Cares Telethon in the show.

Cinematographer Shabier Kirchner shot all five films in the “Small Axe” anthology, working alongside director Steve McQueen. “Lovers Rock,” now streaming on Amazon, is the second film in the anthology and focuses on reggae music sub-genre of the same name which was frequently heard at house parties among the Black community. The house parties were a celebration of love and Black culture.
Kirchner had gone from “Mangrove,” the first film in the five-part “Small Axe” anthology to “Lovers Rock” and says, “Mangrove” was “heavy and difficult because we were dealing with how the system was treating Black people.”
Going to the Notting Hill Carnival helped infuse Kirchner with new energy, celebrating West Indian culture and attending the carnival helped him realize how he would frame the film. Kirchner talked to Variety about working on “Lovers Rock.”

The band also dropped a new single, “Like Breaking Glass,” to accompany the announcement. “Every heart beats now/It beats like the sound of breaking glass,” Dan Whitford sings over triumphant reverb and layers of synths. “Every violent breath/Hurts, so I know I’m still in love.”

Welcome back to Intermission, a spin-off podcast from The Film Stage Show. In a time when arthouse theaters are hurting more than ever and there are a plethora of streaming options at your fingertips, we wanted to introduce new conversations that put a specific focus on the films that are foundational or perhaps overlooked in cinephile culture. Led by yours truly, Michael Snydel (co-host of The Film Stage Show), Intermission is a 1-on-1 supplementary discussion podcast that focuses on one arthouse, foreign, or experimental film per episode as picked by the guest.
For our sixth episode, I talked to critic Vikram Murthi about Olivier Assayas’ 1994 French bildungsroman, Cold Water, which is currently available on the Criterion Channel and on disc. A dual character study of teenage restlessness against the backdrop of post-May ’68 protests, it’s a film whose knowledge of sociology, philosophy, and history is ingrained in every frame.

Even the combined star power of Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber couldn’t unseat Lil Nas X on the Billboard charts. The two pop stars debuted on this week’s Hot 100 singles chart with their duet “I Don’t Care,” but they’re stuck in the number-two spot. Lil Nas X’s country/hip-hop hybrid “Old Town Road” still has the top spot after seven weeks, and it may not be going anywhere anytime soon. Watch the video for Sheeran and Bieber’s new video above.
“I Don’t Care” dropped on May 10, but it’s not the first time Sheeran and Bieber have joined forces. They earned a Song of the Year Grammy nomination for writing Bieber’s number-one hit “Love Yourself.” Sheeran also co-wrote”Cold Water” by Major Lazer featuring Bieber. And both artists contributed to Lil Dicky‘s environmental event song “Earth.”

Ed Sheeran just dropped his "I Don't Care" music video featuring Justin Bieber—and let's just say fans will definitely care. Earlier this month, the pair teased fans with hints about a possible new collaboration and soon told their devoted followers what they were hoping to hear. "I have a song with this sexy beast coming out Friday. Less than 48 hours," Bieber shared on Instagram. The collaboration marked their latest work together as Sheeran also co-wrote Bieber's "Love Yourself" in 2015 and the two worked on Major Lazer's "Cold Water" in 2016. "Just two hunky men releasing a song on friday," Sheeran playfully said over on his...

Discussions of eternal virtues between characters with self-made problems, their self-articulated solutions and delusionary implementations, the real pitter-patter of the intelligentsia, fill up Non-Fiction, the new film from Olivier Assayas. Now the doyen of widely distributed art-house cinema, Assayas’s long and protean career has covered the waterfront of cinematic genres: the period piece (Sentimental Destinies), the inside-showbiz drama (Irma Vep and Clouds of Sils Maria), youthful romance (Cold Water and Something in the Air), the ghost story (Personal Shopper), a scuzzy espionage thriller (Demonlover), and, with Late August, Early September and Non-Fiction, two takes on the literary world. This genre globetrotting is indicative of Assayas’s lifelong closeness with cinema. Born to a screenwriter father in 1955, Assayas began as critic for Cahiers du cinéma in the late-70s and became a scriptwriter for André Techiné in the mid-80s before embarking on his long career directing features. His worldview...

Mubi's retrospective The Parallel Worlds of Olivier Assayas is showing May 3 – June 11, 2019 in the United States.Cold WaterWhen a filmmaker’s body of work is as prolific as it is varied, the paths to profile split two: the explanatory chronology that threads together A-to-b episodes of a life, and the thematic retrofit that groups one film with an unsuspecting other. But both are really about the same, hopeful thing: that the right arrangement of themes and biographic detail will yield some incandescent truth about their practice. With Olivier Assayas, the truths are dropped generously in correspondence—“Cinema has to be light,” he has told Kent Jones, and later, Film Comment1—always too articulate and discerning an interviewee to not betray his past as a writer and (reluctant) critic at Cahiers du cinéma, then helmed by Serge Daney and Toubiana. Assayas is, in fact, generous enough to have written a memoir,...

Mø dropped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to perform her Forever Neverland track “Blur.” The Danish pop star’s tour begins tonight. Mø and her band performed “Blur” in front of a large moon that was backlit by a red light. It matched the song’s opening lyrics: “Under the bad, bad moon tonight/Baby you should trust me.” From there, she danced and belted in front of the moon orb for an alluringly menacing performance.

For the first time in her career, MØ is about to go all-out with the design of her latest tour. “I don’t want to say it’s a ‘real’ show because every show is a ‘real’ show,” the Danish pop singer explains excitedly, “but we created an actual set-up. We really thought hard about it and worked on it for a long time to make extra things.”

Olivier Assayas speaks eloquently about his own work, able to talk about them both abstractly and practically. No surprise, then, that he’s as sharp when talking about other filmmakers’ films. A new video from Tiff finds the acclaimed French filmmaker — most recently of Non Fiction, Personal Shopper and Clouds of Sils Maria, and whose 1994 classic Cold Water was reissued earlier this year — talking Ingmar Bergman. Specifically he discusses Persona, the Swedish legend’s game-changing 1966 whatzit, about a caretaker (Bibi Andersson) tending to a damaged actress (Liv Ullmann). Bergman, according to Assayas, showed “that you could be both […]...

There’s never been a better time to be a fan of restlessly brilliant French auteur Olivier Assayas. His recent collaborations with Kristen Stewart (“Personal Shopper” and “Clouds of Sils Maria”) have taken root in the American film discourse, his “lost” 1994 masterpiece “Cold Water” has joined those films in the Criterion Collection, and his fiendishly clever new comedy, “Non-Fiction,” is lighting up the festival circuit in advance of its release from Sundance Selects next year. And thanks to Le CiNéMa Club, starting today through next Friday, the free cinephile streaming platform is sharing an intimate new documentary about Assayas’ work, and the making of “Personal Shopper.”
Directed by Benoît Bourreau, and commissioned as part of Janine Bazin’s legendary “Cinéma, de notre temps” series, “Aware, Anywhere” offers a lucid and insightful look inside Assayas’ unique approach to filmmaking. The 75-minute documentary hinges on a career-spanning interview between Assayas and longtime...

Justin Bieber took to the streets of London to serenade his fiancée Hailey Baldwin. Fans caught the pop star busking at the fountain outside Buckingham Palace as Baldwin looked on this week.
The young couple had been sightseeing in London when they made a stop at the Palace. Bieber proceeded to do an impromptu performance with his acoustic guitar, singing his 2016 Major Lazer collaboration “Cold Water” as well as a cover of Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car” directly to Baldwin as a crowd formed around them.

This 1994 film from Olivier Assayas (known recently for Clouds of Sils Maria and Personal Shopper) ends ambiguously, with a blank piece of paper. It’s an image that aptly sums up this intriguing yet frustrating film as a whole: a work of countless questions and precious few answers, as esoteric as something from the 1970s period of its setting. It’s like a Michelangelo Antonioni art piece, except shot by John Cassavetes. If we’re meant to come away feeling as ill-informed as its teenage antiheroes then I guess Cold Water has succeeded as art.
The production design and the film stock produces a stunning evocation of the early ‘70s. We’re never told the time period explicitly – we just know. Early on, Assayas shoots with handheld immediacy, employing close-ups and deliberately awkward framing,...

MØ and Diplo continue their creative streak with the nostalgic new single “Sun in Our Eyes.” The song is the lead single off MØ’s sophomore album Forever Neverland, due out on October 19th.
“Sun in Our Eyes” has the Danish singer looking back on summers past, having memories of a lover during the summertime. “I feel the sunlight on my head/ The scent of summer in my bed/ When we were footprints in the sand/ Stealing liquor making plans,” she sings.

It's never too late to receive good news, is it? I hope not, because I am terribly late in sharing information on the Criterion Collection's upcoming releases in September 2018. And it's a very good lineup, indeed. My eye was first drawn to My Man Godfrey, which I saw again a few weeks ago, wishing that it was on Blu-ray so I could enjoy the ace chemistry of William Powell and Carole Lombard in high definition. And behold! The detective comedy will arrive in September. Looking for something a little less familiar? How about Cold Water from filmmaker Olivier Assayas? The official verbiage says that the film has been "long-unavailable" and is a "coming-of-age masterpiece." If you'd like to decide for yourself, Criterion will make...

Sure, summer is just beginning. You’re probably thankful the time has come to go out in the sun and enjoy the next three months of beautiful weather. But today, we’re not going to talk about beaches, pools, or BBQ. No, we want to look forward to September. Specifically, we want to highlight the Criterion Collection’s new crop of films coming out that month.
Leading the pack in September is “Cold Water” from director Olivier Assayas.

2018, the year of Olivier Assayas continues. Between the release of the Cold Water restoration (around which he and Nick Newman had a lengthy discussion) and eventual premiere of Non-Fiction comes word that his next next film, Wasp Network, will be the site of a much-desired reunion. Out of Cannes, there’s word that Carlos‘ Édgar Ramirez has boarded, alongside Pedro Pascal (Narcos), a spy thriller concerning the eponymous, Cuban-backed force that targeted anti-Castro terrorist organizations. Further details on this casting remain private for now, though probably not long: with Non-Fiction nearing its final editing stages and a screenplay reportedly finished, signs point towards an imminent start on production.

Every generation loves a good revolution—stories of marches, graffiti, posters and picketings that changed the world. 2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the May 1968 protests in France: student protests against capitalism, American imperialism, and the general functioning of Charles De Gaulle’s government, that gained momentum when millions of striking workers joined the protests and successfully managed to bring the French economy to a standstill. Nostalgia seekers talk about the exuberance, the exhilaration, and the excitement of it all. Olivier Assayas, who grew up in the 70s, living through the aftermath of May ’68, is not one of them.In 1994, Assayas made L'eau froide (Cold Water) for the TV series Tous les garçons et les filles de leur âge, wherein every participating filmmaker—a list that included Chantal Akerman and Claire Denis, among others—was asked to make a film about their adolescent years using the music they listened to back then.

Chilean filmmaker Sebastián Lelio is wasting no time getting his next project into theaters — or at least distributor Bleecker Street isn’t. Just over a month after his last film, A Fantastic Woman, took the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, his latest, Disobedience with Rachel McAdams and Rachel Weisz rolls into theaters, only days after its Tribeca Film Festival bow. The film joins a pretty packed lineup of new Specialties that will go head to head with Disney’s sure-fire Avengers installment. Sundance Selects is rolling out French filmmaker Claire Denis’ Let the Sunshine In with Juliette Binoche, one of a few foreign-language offerings this weekend including Grasshopper Films’ drama Ava by Sadaf Foroughi. Shout! Studios is opening The House of Tomorrow by Peter Livolsi with Asa Butterfield, Nick Offerman and Ellen Burstyn in several markets, while Cleopatra Films is opening Daniel Jerome Gill’s music-romance, Modern Life is Rubbish.

I’d spoken to Olivier Assayas four previous times in almost as many years, and last month was the first time I caught him at a funny moment. Though the writer-director remains as intelligent, enthusiastic, and friendly as ever, this latest promotional run not only concerns a film that’s about to turn a quarter-century — Cold Water, his semi-autobiographical 1994 feature restored by Janus and now getting a U.S. theatrical release for the first time — but interrupts post-production on his latest feature, Non-Fiction. (A vast improvement over the originally reported E-Book.) Though the good fortune of seeing it at Criterion’s office had enlivened my memory of his alternately spare and fulfilling tale of love, rock, and radicalism in a post-68 landscape, the inherently in-between nature of our conversation often took us away from there and towards specific musings on what’s happening with film culture today. Needless to say,...

Movie lovers rejoice! New Olivier Assayas alert! Well, not entirely new. The prolific French auteur’s 1994 breakout film “Cold Water,” has finally received Us distribution thanks to arthouse distributor Janus Films, and we have the first trailer.
“’Cold Water’ is one of the great missing films, a nearly unknown tour de force by Olivier Assayas. If it had ever been properly released, it would certainly be considered one of Olivier’s masterpieces,” Janus Films President Peter Becker said in a press release.

Tomorrow we’ll find out if Olivier Assayas’ “full-blown comedy” Non Fiction, starring Juliette Binoche, will be part of the Cannes competition line-up, but it’s not the only announcement related to the French auteur that we’re getting this week. If one became acquainted with him in recent years with Personal Shopper and Clouds of Sils Maria, you’ll be pleased to know there’s a wealth of early films from the director to be discovered, and one of them has been given a 4K restoration.
Cold Water, his 1994 film about a pair of teenagers in Paris in the early ’70s, will enjoy a theatrical run starting later this month followed by a likely release on The Criterion Collection. In anticipation of the beautiful-looking restoration, Janus Films have released a new trailer and poster, both of which can be viewed below. For more from Assayas, read our in-depth interviews...

Aaron Katz’s Gemini opens with a vertiginous upside-down shot of palm trees against a saturated indigo sky—a postcard-perfect Los Angeles, inverted. The camera lingers for a few minutes and then tilts slowly back to earth, as if emerging from a psychedelic stupor. It’s an excellent introduction to Katz’s beguiling neo-noir. Although rife with wry nods to familiar tropes and meta-commentary on the making of mysteries, Gemini is not so much an ironic perversion of the genre as a woozy, Instagram-y evocation. It resurrects the ghosts of L.A. noirs past and filters them through a neon-slicked lens, constructing a sleek thriller around distinctly millennial themes of celebrity and identity. Katz is known primarily for being one of the originators of the mumblecore movement—a verbose, low-key brand of cinema whose predilection for non-events and naturalistic banter seems almost antithetical to the demands of genre filmmaking.
