Martha Marcy May Marlene

Terrifying and beautiful, this might well be the best film of 2012.

Interview: James Watkins

The director of The Woman in Black and Eden Lake sits down and chats with us about horror, Daniel Radcliffe and 3D.

Review: Acts of Godfrey

84 minutes of rhyming couplets? It sounds well annoying but I actually loved it.

Review: The Descendants

Nice film, shame about the voiceover.

Tinker Tailor Whack-a-Mole

There's a mole at the top of The Circus. Can you bash its face in?

Review: Like Crazy

A superb anti-rom-com that breaks some cliches and obeys others, which only makes it more moving.

Review: Shame

A devastating, magnificent film that trades almost solely in sex – and yet looks right through it.

Review: Coriolanus

Like Olivier and Branagh before him, Fiennes makes Shakespeare as gripping as it ever was. Verily, Voldemort did good.

If Newsreaders Did Shakespeare...

Inspired by Jon Snow's role in Coriolanus, here are some other Shakespeare adaptations starring newsreaders.

Review: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

After Benjamin Button and The Social Network, this feels like Fincher back in Se7en territory. Grizzled, haunting and beautiful.

Woody at the BFI

As the BFI's season of Woody Allen films continues, we look back at some of the director's best (and worst) films.

The Artist

A feel-good treat, pure and simple. You’ll swoon, you’ll sigh, you’ll want to tap dance.

Certificate: TBC
Release Date: Friday 17th June

In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.


Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), Hal may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.

People planning to rush out and buy a "What would Darren Aronofsky do?" t-shirt, hold your horses. Because he's pretty much been offered every single film in existence. And several that are probably just invented by psychotic fans as an excuse to email him.


One such project is Tales from the Gangster Squad, that film that got offered to Ben Affleck by Warner Bros when he supposedly turned down the Superman reboot. Now, with Aranofsky being linked (still) with Wolverine 2, Warners are tempting the Black Swan director away from 20th Century Fox with the crime film, which Affleck again has passed on.


Based on a series of LA Times articles, Tales is about a group of off-the-record mercenary cops who join together to run mob leader Micky Cohen out of town. The good news for Warners? If Aronofsky does decide to go claws all out with his mate Hugh Jackman, then they have a list of backups: Francis Lawrence (I Am Legend), Paul Greengrass, Scott Cooper (Crazy Heart), Life as We Know It’s Greg Berlanti, and Martin Campbell.


So that's another bunch of director-themed t-shirts I wouldn't bother buying just yet if I were you.

Trailers

What would you do if you witnessed your own daughter get killed? Well, if you were Liam Neeson, you'd hunt down every European on the planet. But if you're Mel Gibson, well, you go about things a little more thoroughly. First of all, you'd get Martin Campbell in to direct. And then you'd unleash some cracking new artwork to go with the exciting trailer.


Yes, it's only a few weeks until Edge of Darkness is released and we've got our hands on the latest artwork for the thriller. A remake of the classic TV series of the same name, Edge of Darkness sees old Mel back on the big screen, uncovering the conspiracy behind his daughter's death. A landmark show when first broadcast in the UK, this retread is looking pretty promising stuff. Think State of Play. But with more guns.


Read on for the new artwork (Mel looks angry) and head over to our videos section to see the trailer.
