Graham Moore’s “The Outfit” funnels a sprawling 1950s gangster saga down into a single location. A middling thriller with occasional bursts of intensity, it’s told through the eyes and ears of elderly Englishman Leonard Burling (Mark Rylance), tailor to the mob and the film’s delightful centerpiece, who attempts to navigate the violent family drama from its margins. However, despite Rylance’s effective work and some smart physical staging, the film is ultimately unable to overcome its “tell, don’t show — then tell again” dialogue, layered atop an increasingly busy plot....

Set (and shot) mostly on the remote island of Monhegan, just off the coast of Maine, Eaton’s film conjures both a place and a people. Mostly, there is Olivia (Eaton), the only grandchild and last living family member of Lionel (Harris Yulin), a beloved former doctor who has carved out a safe, quiet life for the duo among caring friends (including a warm turn from Frankie Faison, the pair’s lawyer and best friend)....

Guillermo del Toro’s “Pinocchio,” one of Netflix’s high-end holiday originals, ranks #3, behind Sony’s “Bullet Train.” “Grinch,” along with “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” (Universal/$3.99) and “Elf” (WBD/$3.99), placed on all three charts. Particularly impressive is their showing on Vudu, which calculates by revenue. Two other holiday titles — “The Holiday” (Sony/$3.99) and 47-minute 1964 TV special “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” (Universal/$9.99, for sale only) — also have a single listing....

“The target was one minute. I think I landed somewhere around four,” Vinterberg said the next morning, clutching his Oscar from a hotel room and speaking over Zoom. “It was first and foremost an incredibly proud moment, satisfying, and a huge relief.” The event was more sparsely attended than most Oscar ceremonies, but Vinterberg said he still experienced the weird collision of worlds unique to that event: He was backstage getting his Oscar engraved while listening to Harrison Ford’s rambling introduction to Best Editing, met Laura Dern for the first time, and then embraced fellow Dane Mikkel E....

Here’s the official synopsis courtesy of Netflix: The film stars Academy Award nominee and Tony Award winner Garfield opposite Alexandra Shipp, Tony Award nominee Robin de Jesús, Tony Award nominee Joshua Henry, Emmy Award nominee Mj Rodriguez, Emmy Award winner Bradley Whitford, Tariq Trotter aka Black Thought of The Roots, with Emmy and Tony Award winner Judith Light, and Vanessa Hudgens. The film is written by Tony Award winner Steven Levenson (who wrote the book for “Dear Evan Hansen”) and produced by Brian Grazer and Ron Howard for Imagine Entertainment, plus Julie Oh and Lin-Manuel Miranda....

“It was artists, storytellers, filmmakers, who were finding ways to move us, inspire us, to remind us what we’re living for,” he said. “I want to thank you, the best movie audience in the world, for being part of this experience again.” That experience takes many forms. The festival is a beacon for awards-season titles as well as red-carpet galas, documentaries, genre films, and international cinema. It’s also a snapshot of how the industry views commercial movies at a most fragile moment....

“We were going to do Bob Dylan with Mangold that didn’t happen, with Timothée Chalamet, about going electric in the ’60s, and it would have been my third ’60s movie in a row,” said Papamichael, who last collaborated with the director on 2019’s “Ford v Ferrari.” This year, Papamichael also shot the 1960s-set “The Trial of the Chicago 7,” depicting a tumultuous period of protest that certainly had plenty of crossover with Dylan’s own life and work....

Here’s the synopsis: “Yoko (former J-pop idol Atsuko Maeda) travels with a small crew to Uzbekistan (breathtakingly captured by veteran DP Akiko Ashizawa) to shoot an episode of her travel reality show. In front of the camera, her persona is carefree and happy-go-lucky, but behind the scenes she is cautious and introverted. Despite her best efforts, the filming of the television series ends unsuccessfully, and frustrated by the failure, she sets off into the mysterious country....

The in-person program will feature two components: The “Writing in Unreal” Intensive will focus on a select group of the film industry’s writers and directors, who will partner with dedicated Unreal Engine Artists to workshop a two-to-three page scene from a personal, unproduced project. The second component, Open Sessions, will target a wider gathering of independent filmmakers, including writers, directors, and creative producers, across three days and will include presentations, conversations, and case studies that feature how and why one should utilize Unreal Engine, which does not cost money to use....

The online panel, titled “Succeeding in Global Content Discovery and Curation to Build Audiences,” is part of the Variety & IndieWire Streaming Room presented by Vuulr and will take place November 10 at 12:30PM EST/9:30AM PST. Moderated by Variety International Editor Manori Ravindran, the panel will feature Reemah Sakaan, CEO of BritBox International; Ian McKee, founder and CEO or Vuulr; Jason Kwong, chief strategy and digital officer of Redbox; Amy Kuessner, SVP of content strategy and global partnerships at ViacomCBS Streaming; and Filippa Wallestam, EVP and chief content officer of Nordic Entertainment Group....

“YouTube was very constricting because of things like copyright and DMC,” Ramos said. “The license that Netflix and [David Fincher] gave us, it was very, ‘Oh, we can do anything and everything!’ And [that] was, I don’t want to say daunting, but —” “It was mildly terrifying,” Zhou added. More than access to money for media libraries and rights lawyers, however, what Ramos and Zhou had to contend with was the ability to scale how they presented their ideas, expanding from narration over picture to mix in other modes of filmmaking....

“O Night Divine” stars John C. Reilly as a fully bearded Santa Claus who serenades an adorable little girl in Italian. Alex Wolff also features as a crooning vagabond, showing off a lovely singing voice that we certainly didn’t hear in “Hereditary.” They are joined by model and filmmaker Hailey Gates, who had small parts in “Uncut Gems” and “Twin Peaks: The Return.” The rest of the ensemble includes newcomers Samia Benazzouz, Chloe Park, Valerio Santucci, Francesca Figus, Tania Hanyoung Park, and Shi Yang Shi....

Be sure to tune in to the official live pre-show, too. SAG Awards Sunday will be kicked off by an official Screen Actors Guild Awards Pre-Show which will live-streamed on TNTdrama.com/sag-awards, SAGawards.org, PeopleTV, People.com, EW.com, as well as on People, EW, and PeopleTV Facebook pages, People, EW, and PeopleTV Twitter, and the People and EW YouTube channels beginning at 8 p.m. ET and 5 p.m. PT.

Focus Features, in partnership with Indian Paintbrush, has set a limited theatrical release for “Asteroid City” on June 16, 2023. The film will go wide a week later on June 23. The out-of-this-world premise for Anderson’s “Asteroid City” was recently revealed, with Focus Features handling the distribution for the dramedy. This marks the first collaboration between Focus and Anderson since Oscar-nominated 2012 coming of age story “Moonrise Kingdom.” His films since — “The Grand Budapest Hotel,” “Isle of Dogs,” and last year’s “The French Dispatch” — were all distributed by Searchlight....

Humorist and actor Robert Benchley (grandfather of “Jaws” author Peter) tries to sell Disney on the idea of adapting the Grahame story, but before he can get to the big man himself he goes on a veritable tour of the studio. What follows is as much an inside-look at filmmaking as anything Hollywood had ever given viewers by the early 1940s. It plays like a DVD “making of” feature nearly 60 years before DVDs were invented, so no wonder, after the towering heights of “Snow White,” “Pinocchio,” and “Fantasia,” critics were puzzled by this especially strange theatrical release....

Shortly after his death, Argento was scrutinized as a villain figure in Bourdain’s life, as the #MeToo activist was embroiled in a sexual assault scandal of her own. While the movie looks toward this chapter at the end of Bourdain’s life, Neville does not interview Argento at all for the film, instead speaking with others close to her late boyfriend. Neville told IndieWire, the filmmakers were “pretty deep” into the project when they decided not to include her....

The thriving home-viewing market also includes “Soul” (Disney+ only) and “Wonder Woman 1984” (also in theaters). Neither studio reported specific results, though Warners claims “WW84” viewings by “millions” of subscribers. What constitutes a “view” remains undefined. Apart from “Croods,” the leading premium hits are “Tenet,” “Greenland,” and “The War With Grandpa.” At $14.99, “Grandpa” is less expensive, “Greenland” is home-availability only, and “Croods” is part of Universal’s now-standard model of three weeks in theaters, then add PVOD....

Not that such patience will necessarily be required. Trusting that her subject matter is fertile enough to merit such a scholarly approach, and also bewitching enough to survive it, Janisse connects the dots between “The Wicker Man” and “La Llorona” in a way that allows this multi-chapter epic to function as both séance-like spectacle and streaming-era syllabus in equal measure. On the one hand, auditing the whole course in a single sitting makes it easier to recognize folk horror as a mode rather than a genre, and to appreciate how its different expressions across various cultures reflect the unresolved pasts that percolate beneath them all....

Of course, certain wrinkles in the fabric of space-time make it hard to say for sure when either of those things really happened. All we know is that Emily was visited by a third-generation adult clone of herself at the beginning of Don Hertzfeldt’s beloved 2015 short “World of Tomorrow,” and spirited away on a whirlwind tour of the hilariously fucked up digital future that awaited her and all of the various back-up Emilys into which she would dump her consciousness after her body stopped working....
