Read my spoiler-free movie review of The Great (2019).

Nicholas Hoult and Elle Fanning are the stars of new comedy / drama The Great.

A ‘sort of based on a true story’ tale of a royal woman from rural Austria, who marries an Emperor. Only she finds out that her life is not quite what she’d imagined and she’ll have to choose between her own personal happiness and the future of Russia.

Additional key cast includes Phoebe Fox Adam Godley, Charity Wakefield, Douglas Hodge…

I’m in for the power struggle, the costumes, plus the entertaining silliness and word play.

Directed by Brett Haley; Violet (Fanning) and Theodore (Smith) meet and impact each other’s lives in positive ways while struggling with the emotional and physical scars of their past.

I can’t help but compare movies where teenagers fall in love but at least one of them is unwell to the rather good The Fault in Our Stars (2014). I’m interested to see the ways in which this is different.

In new drama Roads Not Taken, director Sally Potter’s story centres around a day in the life of Leo (Javier Bardem), as he floats through alternate lives he could have lived. While doing so, his daughter Molly begins to wrestle with her own path.

Roads Not Taken also stars Salma Hayek, Laura Linney, Branka Katic, Dimitri Andreas…

A very intriguing premise indeed. One that will likely force me to look back at all my past choices. But am I ready? That is the question.

Either way, I like how unexpected the cast is and I’m looking forward to seeing how this turns out because I’m sure the acting will be great but I think the way it’s edited will be especially important.

Katia Mullova-Brind, Milena Tscharntke, Debora Weston, Aaron Joshua, Sabina Cameron, Griffin Stevens Catherine Levi, Ruth Keeling and Olan Montgomery also star.

The Roads Not Taken Release Dates: March 13th, 2020 (US)…

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Teen Spirit (2018).

I’m curious about Elle Fanning’s British accent and I want to find out how much Teen Spirit will remind me of Beyond The Lights (2014), if at all.

Elle Fanning, Nicole Kidman, Ruth Wilson and Alex Sharp are the stars of How to Talk to Girls at Parties, a John Cameron Mitchell directed comedy / romance about an alien. An alien that’s touring the galaxy but breaks away from her group and meets two young inhabitants of the most dangerous place in the universe – the London suburb of Croydon…

I’m in for the alien activity and the costumes. I also can’t say that I didn’t find the line in the official synopsis about Croydon amusing.

Ben Affleck is director, producer and star of Live By Night, a new crime drama about the dealings of a group of people involved in organised crime during the United States prohibition era. Based on the novel by Dennis Lehane; Zoe Saldana, Scott Eastwood, Elle Fanning and Chris Messina are just some of the talented cast…

Johnny Depp’s Public Enemies (2009) came to mind as I watched this trailer. Which will be the better movie, I wonder…
