Child 44 (2015) opens Friday and features one of the darkest plots of any Spring release opening wide in recent memory. Focusing on a string of unsolved child murders in soviet Russia, the grim mystery features the always-watchable Noomi Rapace as the film's female lead.
Since hitting it big with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2009), Rapace has deservedly enjoyed a steady career in a variety of complex film roles. It's never anything but a pleasure seeing an actress of Rapace's talent at work, yet I can't help but notice that in so many of her projects, including Child 44, she is usually second fiddle to her male co-stars.
One of the few exceptions is Rapace's work alongside Rachel McAdams in Brian De Palma's sexually charged thriller, Passion (2012). After advertising executive Christine (McAdams) takes credit for an idea from her associate Isabel (Rapace), a personal and professional tug of war between the two women begins,...

Here is a film that feels its age, the age of its maker. But this doesn't mean a young hotshot's film or that of an old master. French director Olivier Assayas is 59, and his Clouds of Sils Maria feels it. A unique thing, a movie that feels an expression of middle age, of considerate maturity, of a medias res—a favored storytelling technique for the director—movie very much aware of this age between the entitled, risk-taking energy of the young and the settled, comfortable wiseness the senior artist.Yet it's not about him, the auteur, it's about a woman, an actress, a veteran: Juliette Binoche as an actress of Binoche's age (50), caliber and reputation. After the death of the playwright and director who made her acting name as the young girl in a psychosexual play opposite an older woman, she is moved to star in a theatrical revival now...

This year has seen the release of what feels like an unusually large number of remakes of indie/foreign films, and this week sees another—Brian de Palma's "Passion" (read our review here) which is a remake of French film "Love Crime" ("Crime D'Amour"). While traditionally remakes of lower-budget efforts have given cause for much forehead-scratching and eye-rolling among cinephiles—usually bemoaning the lack of originality in taking a pre-made concept rather than tackling a fresh creation and often then repackaging that concept in as bland a way a possible for sale to a U.S. audience—in recent years there's been cause for some hope. The phenomenon may not be going away, in fact it might be becoming more prevalent, but the standard of some of those remakes seems to be inching incrementally higher—a recent high watermark being Matt Reeves' "Let Me In," a terrific remake...

Starring Noomi Rapace and Rachel McAdams, Passion (2012) sees American director Brian De Palma return to his favourite stomping ground of the overblown psychosexual thriller, a sub-genre which he made his own with such schlocky delights as Body Double, Dressed to Kill and Blow Out. The 71-year-old director spoke with John Bleasdale at last year's Venice Film Festival about the changing film industry, the impact of technology and why he should have really been a silent film director. Five years after 2007's angry Iraq War j'accuse Redacted, Passion - an English-language remake of Alain Corneau's 2010 thriller Love Crime (Crime d'Amour) - sees De Palma in a more playful mood.
"Passion is a good mystery story," the director explained on the Lido. "I liked working with women. I set out to make what I thought was a clever mystery even cleverer. Redacted is completely driven by men and so making this we're doing the opposite.

Unless you're in deep with the French film scene, chances are you didn't catch the 2010 film "Crime d'Amour," but iffen you did, this might look really familiar.
Here we have the first trailer for "Passion," the latest crime thriller from Brian De Palma, featuring Rachel McAdams as Christine, a snaky international businesswoman who finds herself neck deep in salacious intrigue, masked murder and gobs and gobs of money after messing with the wrong protégé in Noomi Rapace's Isabelle.
Ooh la la!
While "Passion" does appear to imbibe many elements of the original "Love Crime," wherein the beautiful and savvy and wicked Christine becomes both cuckolded and a murder victim after trying to take credit for one of her assistant's ideas, there appear to be a few noteworthy modifications to the story in this iteration ... namely, that bit near the end there with McAdams' character showing face at what should be her own funeral.

★★☆☆☆ Having slunk onto UK screens for the first time last year - presumably to pre-empt the release later in 2013 of Brian De Palma's English language remake Passion (2012) - French director Alain Corneau's Love Crime (Crime d'amour, 2010) is a muddled and ultimately unsatisfying attempt at making a tense, psychosexual European thriller. Even the presence of Kristin Scott Thomas as Machiavellian antagonist-cum-victim Christine is unable to shake this frustratingly inconsistent game of 'cat-and-cat' into life, with the usually dependable Ludivine Sagnier arguably coming off worst as put-upon plaything Isabelle.

Betrayal, revenge and kinky sex are slathered haphazardly over the lukewarm plot of Brian DePalma's new film Passion. Based on the French film Crime d'amour about the trials and tribulations of an abused office assistant. It is a muddle of confused genre sensibilities and nonsensical allusions which when partnered with a severe lack of character chemistry make this a hard to watch film and not in a fun way.

Toronto -- On a sunny afternoon this past week at the Toronto Film Festival, Brian De Palma finishes holding court at a reporters round table. As he moves to the other side of the room, he pauses to admire one of the mural images from the iconic 1960 film "La Dolce Vita" that adorns the walls.
The director mumbles something about the era and sits down for an interview. Soon he expounds on the period as being a magical time, with peers like Steven Spielberg, Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese and George Lucas.
"We were in the era where everyone saw the directors as the geniuses, so we got a lot of opportunities to make any crazy movie that happened to occur to us," the 72-year-old De Palma recalled.
That period of American filmmaking – the 1960s and `70s – created many notable relationships, like when De Palma introduced Robert De Niro to Martin Scorsese.

Brian De Palma has been written off before, and it may be that Passion, his remake of Alain Corneau's Crime d'amour (Aka Love Crime), is nothing more than a job for hire. Or, perhaps it's an opportunity for an old dog to show the kids that he's still got a few tricks up his sleeve. Obviously, I'm hoping for the latter. The original film, starring Kristin Scott Thomas and Ludivine Sagnier, was a perfectly fine thriller with a couple of neat twists. In Jim Tudor's review from last fall, when it had a limited theatrical release in the U.S., he questioned whether a remake was even needed, since the film was successful on its own terms. The Tiff program notes claim: "De Palma follows...

Alain Corneau passed away in August 2010, two days after his final film, Love Crime (Crime d'amour), opened in France and just before it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. I didn't get a chance to see it in Toronto that year, but finally had a chance to watch it last night, knowing I wanted to watch it before seeing Brian De Palma's remake, titled Passion, which will be playing the Venice Film Festival at the end of August. Starring Kristin Scott Thomas and Ludivine Sagnier, the story begins as the age-old tale of a mentor (Thomas) using the ingenue (Sagnier) for professional gain. While Thomas, as Christine, uses the accomplished work of Isabelle to rise to the top. Isabelle, upset with Christine's two-faced approach to their relationship, is struggling between the idea of remaining a loyal employee and the voice of her co-worker (Guillaume Marquet) in her ear,...

Dominic Cooper and Karoline Herfurth have reportedly scored roles in "Passion", Brian De Palma's English language remake of Alain Corneau's 2010 French psychological drama "Crime d'amour" (Love Crime) for Sbs Productions reports Mediz Biz (via The Playlist).
Kristin Scott Thomas and Ludivine Sagnier starred in the original which followed the young assistant of a ruthless and emotionally sadistic business executive driven to murder her boss.
This $30 million remake, a French-German-British-Spainish co-production, will be set in the UK with Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace slotted for the lead roles.
The plot also has a slight adjustment in that the main motivator this time will be the boss character stealing her underling's idea.

Brian De Palma, as announced earlier this year , is planning to make his next feature a remake of the recent French film, Crime d'Amour (which translates to "Crime of Passion"). Indiewire now has an update, suggesting that De Palma already has his sights set on his leads: Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace, both of whom star in this week's Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows . The original film (the very last from recently-deceased director Alain Corneau) starred Kristin Scott Thomas as an executive mentoring a young ingénue (Ludivine Saginer) who soon becomes her cutthroat rival. Outside of Holmes , McAdams can soon be seen in The Vow . Rapace, meanwhile, stars in next summer's Prometheus and will soon shoot Dead Man Down . (Photo Credit: Eyeprime / WENN.com)...

It's been nearly a year since we've heard anything about the remake of the French drama Crime d'Amour (or Love Game) from director Brian De Palma. Titled Passion, the film finally seems to be making progress with Thompson on Hollywood reporting Rachel McAdams will join her Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows co-star Noomi Rapace in the remake of the film from Alain Corneau and starring Kristen Scott Thomas and European actor Ludivine Sagnier as two feuding corporate executives. Things take a dark turn when the older executive takes revenge on her protege. However, De Palma's version makes a slight change. This new version of the 2011 film will see a younger woman who turns to murder when her boss steals one of her big ideas. In its simplest form, it sounds like Horrible Bosses but without the comedy. However, knowing De Palma's body of work, this will be something much...

Cast your mind back to January, when we reported on Brian De Palma attaching himself to a remake of French drama Crime d'amour, called Passion. At that early stage, there was no mention of casting, but it appears the director has two actresses interested in the leads, with Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace now in talks.
Crime starred Ludivine Sagnier and Kristen Scott Thomas in the tale of an ambitious business protege who ends up stealing her older boss's idea. The rivalry burns to such a degree that the older woman eventually turns to murder.
According to Anne Thompson, De Palma plans to twist it very slightly with the boss being the one to steal the idea. He's looking to get started filming this coming March in Berlin.
There's no word on what that will mean for the other film sitting on De Palma's dance card - conspiracy thriller The Key Man...

Though back in January we heard that Scarface director Brian De Palma would direct Passion, a remake of the French languge thriller Crime d'amour (or Love Crime). However, we haven't heard anything about the project since then, and it's still been four years since De Palma delivered his last feature film which was the military drama Redacted in 2007. Now Deadline has word that the filmmaker will be at the helm of a new thriller called The Key Man from writer Joby Harold. The story follows a single father who's targeted by U.S. government agents because his body contains answers to important national secrets. Apparently the film is a throwback to movies of the 70's like Three Days of the Condor and Marathon Man with that paranoid thriller kind of feel. Interestingly enough, De Palma was a part of that particular period in cinema, but his more ...

Award-wining French film director best known for Tous les Matins du Monde
It is fair to say that the majority of audiences who saw the film Tous les Matins du Monde (All the Mornings of the World, 1991) – directed by Alain Corneau, who has died of lung cancer aged 67 – had previously never heard of (or heard) the music of the baroque composer and viola da gamba virtuoso Marin Marais. However, the lacuna was soon filled after this sensitive, painterly and vivid recreation of 17th-century French musical life had won seven Césars (France's Oscars), become an international success and resulted in a bestselling CD of the soundtrack by Le Concert des Nations ensemble.
Starring Gérard Depardieu as the older Marais, looking back on his reckless younger self (played by Depardieu's son, Guillaume), it remains Corneau's biggest success outside France. In fact, Tous les Matins du Monde, one of the few films...

Men go at each other with guns. Women tend to take the more subtle but equally damaging approach of defaming each other’s character which, on occasion, then turns to violence.
That’s the case in Alain Corneau’s thriller Love Crime (Crime d'Amour). Ludivine Sagnier stars as Isabelle, a young up-and-comer working at a multinational corporation except she can’t seem to get ahead because her boss Christine, played by the fantastic Kristin Scott-Thomas, steals the young woman’s ideas and uses them to her own advantage. After one too many abuses, Isabelle gets angry and plans to take her revenge. Ah, sweet revenge.
This thriller looks solid and Scott-Thomas looks comfortable in the role of power hungry woman who will do whatever necessary to move up in the world. Honestly, what role doesn’t she do well?
Trailer, via RoS, after the break.

Christopher Plummer and Ewan McGregor in Beginners It's hard to believe in less than a month I'll be making my trip to cover the Toronto International Film Festival (Tiff) for the first time. For some reason it seemed like the lead time I had for Cannes was much longer, but I guess when you're busy time simply flies. Today I have two more previews from films showing at the festival and they look to be a couple of films we may want to keep our eyes on.
First off, the pic above is one of three images I've added to the site for the Toronto International Film Festival entry Beginners starring Christopher Plummer, Ewan McGregor, Goran Visnjic and Melanie Laurent.
The story centers on the relationship between Oliver (McGregor) and his 71-year-old father (Plummer) who's just come out of the closet on top of telling him he has terminal cancer.
