In order to convey the claustrophobic feeling of Monica Lewinsky being trapped in her DC apartment in “Impeachment: American Crime Story,” cinematographer Simon Dennis played around with the windows on the set. “Obviously it gives you much more an exposure of an outside but it also feel a little bit more down and kind of restrictive in that way,” he tells Gold Derby during our recent webchat (watch the exclusive video interview above). The same method was also used to convey the same sort of feeling in the scenes when Lewinsky is being held at the Ritz Carlton by members of the Office of the Independent Counsel. “Again, you have the big bank of windows but you never really get any detail of what’s out there. It’s a bit more abstract and, in a funny way, can feel more like a bad dream.”

Pusher
Review by Andrew McArthur
Stars: Richard Coyle, Agyness Deyn , Zlatko Buric, Paul Kaye, Bronson Webb, Mem Ferda, Neil Maskell | Written by Matthew Read | Directed by Luis Prieto
Luis Prieto’s British made update of Nicolas Winding Refn’s 1996 film, Pusher, received its world premiere at last year’s Edinburgh International Film Festival, and now the gripping, adrenaline fuelled ride, which is by far one of the most exciting British crime thrillers in recent years comes to DVD and Blu-ray.
Frank (Richard Coyle) may just be London’s most unlucky drug dealer. After a deal goes horrendously wrong, he finds himself owing a ruthless Serbian crime boss over £55,000. In a desperate search for money, Frank soon finds his life spiralling out of control and relationships with those around him beginning to crumble.
It is hard to deviate from certain traditional elements in this genre, for example, risky deals and unrelenting...

More “Blair Witch Project” style shenanigans arrive in the form of “A Night in the Woods”, a British effort which could at least never be accused of not living up to its title, following a trio of the usual types wandering around the moors and forests of Northern England. The found footage film was directed by Richard Parry (“South West 9”), who previously worked as a conflict zone cameraman, helming various documentaries in Iraq and Afghanistan, with cinematography by Simon Dennis (“The Sweeney”), and the international cast of American star Scoot McNairy (“Monsters”), Australian actress Anna Skellern (“The Descent: Part 2”) and up and coming British actor Andrew Hawley (“Snow White And The Huntsman”). The Vertigo Films release is set for a brief run in UK cinemas in early September, arriving shortly afterwards on DVD. The very recognisable plot follows an American called Brody (Scoot McNairy), his girlfriend Kerry (Anna Skellern...
