I rolled my eyes when I first learned that Hollywood was making another Planet of the Apes movie. Why can’t they just let a perfectly good trilogy be as they are?

What if the famously multilingual Switzerland suddenly shifts to having just one official language? That’s what Zurich-born filmmaker Peter Luisi imagines in this political satire Bonjour Switzerland. Its original title Bon Schuur Ticino makes more sense in the context of the film as most of the action takes place in the Italian region of Ticino ..read more

The Beast in the Jungle is Henry James’ novella that has been adapted numerous times. This one marks the sixth cinematic adaptation though it’s very loosely based. In fact, Bertrand Bonello and his co-writers Guillaume Bréaud and Benjamin Charbit take so many creative liberties this one is more ‘inspired by.’ This is my intro to ..read more
