Fifty-three years ago today, the world was blessed with the birth of Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, who became an eternal icon in Latin pop culture and music. Selena blazed a trail for the música Mexicana explosion that we're seeing today and the Latina pop stars who have followed in her footsteps. Her impact is often minimized in comparison to the circumstances of her tragic death. However, her music - and how she bridged the gap between her Mexican and American identities - continue to resonate with new generations of Latine fans.
Selena Quintanilla was born on April 16, 1971, and grew up in Corpus Christi, TX. She was an Aries, a sign often described as "passionate, brave, and headstrong." Indeed of conforming with the música Mexicana artists of the time, she paved the way for herself by proudly embracing her Chicana identity. With influences like Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson, Jody Watley, and Gloria Estefan,...

Hulu’s list of new releases for March 2023 features an event long in the making.
On March 6, History of the World, Part II will finally arrive more than 40 years after Mel Brooks’ classic comedy History of the World, Part I. first premiered. Of course, Brooks never had any intention of adding future parts to his ahistorical film, but that yet makes the arrival of Part II so many years later even funnier. Described as a four-night comedy event, History of the World, Part II will release two episodes a day through March 9. Brooks returns to write and executive produce this series and will star alongside Nick Kroll, Wanda Sykes, and Ike Barinholtz. Guest stars include…everyone. Basically just everyone.

It’s ironic but unavoidable that the greatest annual celebration of film should be a television special — but that’s just how it is. March often means Oscar season, a time for cinephiles to boot up that small screen you use for movies and use it to see if they win any awards during a telecast.
If you don’t have TV service anymore, Hulu has you covered with a pre-Oscars telecast as well as two red carpet specials before and after the main event. Though the ceremony itself won’t be livestreamed on Hulu, it will be added the next morning, like regular ABC programming. Awards viewership has been in general decline over the past several years, but next-day streaming gives curious viewers a chance to join the conversation and boost those Oscar ratings after the live show. It’s also a chance for superfans to pause and rewind...

For his directorial debut, Vanishing Point (2015), Thai filmmaker Jakrawal Nilthamrong created an impressionistic interrogation of a moment of trauma from his own family history — the devastating car accident that left his father bedridden for life and his mother scarred and consigned as her spouse’s nurse. In his second feature, Anatomy of Time, the 38-year-old filmmaker trains his art house reveries on the sacrifices of just such a mother, while also imagining the life she might have had.
“It’s not a biographical film about all of the particulars of her life,” Nilthamrong says. “It’s more just inspired by what ...

It was while working together on 2018’s The Kindergarten Teacher, her first feature effort as producer, that Maggie Gyllenhaal floated to her Pie Films producing partners Osnat Handelsman-Keren and Talia Kleinhendler her desire to direct.
She zeroed in on Elena Ferrante’s 2006 novella The Lost Daughter, a story about a literature professor from the U.K. on a summer holiday who, after befriending a young mother, grapples with the fraught parenting of her own daughters and the guilt-ridden realization that she feels liberated now that they’re adults.

Juliette Binoche, Vincent Lindon and Grégoire Colin lead the cast of the filmmaker’s 13th feature, a Curiosa Films production sold by Wild Bunch International and Anton. Having kicked off on 14 December, filming on Claire Denis’ Fire has now entered the home straight in Paris. The film sees the director reuniting with three familiar faces from her previous works: Juliette Binoche, who previously joined forces with the director in Let The Sun Shine In and High Life; Vincent Lindon (named Best Actor in Cannes 2015 and at the 2016 Césars for The Measure of a Man, nominated repeatedly in...
Yorgos Lanthimos’ dark absurdist comedy Dogtooth in 2009 ushered in the so-called Greek Weird Wave, which blossomed at least partly out of national chaos triggered by the country’s financial crisis that same year. Christos Nikou, whose background includes working as an assistant director on that film, establishes himself as an exciting new voice in the movement with his assured feature debut, Apples. Simultaneously deadpan and dour, somber and surreal, this is a haunting meditation on the manipulation of memory to anesthetize pain, crafted with a meticulous attention to visual and aural composition that makes for arresting viewing.

The Venice Film Festival, kicking off September 2, will present composer Terence Blanchard with its Passion for Film Award, which recognizes the contribution given to a director’s closest collaborators.
Blanchard is noted for his collaborations with Spike Lee, from Malcolm X to Inside Man, BlacKkKlansman, and recently Da 5 Bloods. He also composed the score for Regina King’s One Night In Miami, which screens Out of Competition at Venice this year. Alongside his film work, Blanchard is a renowned jazz trumpeter.
First inaugurated two years ago, recipients of the prize to date have been American film editor Bob Murawski and Italian cinematographer Luca Bigazzi.
“Not only is Terence Blanchard one of the most important jazz trumpeters of all time, he is also one of the most prolific and sought-after composers of film scores,” said Venice director Alberto Barbera. “His artistic career is distinguished by vigorous musical creations inspired by...

This may be one of the most repulsive movies I’ve ever seen. It’s also an important movie, laying bare the farce that equality and justice become in the face of power, privilege, and money. I’m “biast” (pro): nothing
I’m “biast” (con): nothing
(what is this about? see my critic’s minifesto)
This may be one of the most repulsive movies I’ve ever seen. Its protagonist is a sociopathic narcissist who sees women as playthings, who takes advantage of his power, privilege, and money to — literally — bail himself out when he is unable to tell the difference between ambitious young women who tell him to his face that they’re sleeping with him because they’re turned on by his standing, professional sex workers paid to put on a show of pretending to like him, and uninterested female passersby screaming bloody hell for him to stop assaulting them.

Scream Factory brings us 1985's space vampire flick Lifeforce to Blu-ray for the first time ever. Although Tobe Hooper's blend of sci-fi and horror didn't fare well at the box office when first released, it's gained a cult following over the years thanks to video and DVD. Lifeforce Collector's Edition includes both the theatrical cut and a longer director approved version.
An alien spacecraft is discovered in the midst of Halley's Comet by astronauts sent to investigate. Upon entering the ship, they find three humanoids which are in a type of sleep state. They bring the bodies aboard their vessel and discover too quickly that was a mistake. The aliens take over the Earthbound craft by killing everyone on board. Led by their seductively beautiful leader, they arrive on Earth and begin draining the life out of everyone they encounter.
I would say that Lifeforce is probably Tobe Hooper...

The Syfy network competition and reality series, Face Off, has nothing to do with Nic Cage and John Travolta, but everything to do with the amazing artistry behind movie make-up. It recently kicked off a cool second season. Episode One entertained with a Wizard of Oz theme. Brea’s Wicked Witch of the West won the challenge. If you liked that one, wait until you hear about upcoming episodes and their guest judges. One may bring his phaser, set to stun of course.
EW made us all want to beam aboard when they shared the news that LeVar Burton of Star Trek: The Next Generation fame, was enlisted to be a guest judge for Episode 7, codename: “Alien Interpreters”. This is what movie make up is all about, folks. If you’re not creating movie monsters, making aliens has to be as wonderful a challenge. That science fiction flavored episode debuts Feb.

Scream 4
It’s been 10 years since a serial killer has reeked havoc on lip-quivering heroine Sydney Prescott (Neve Campbell), and now Ghost Face has returned to up the ante, cashing in and criticizing the latest in horror conventions. Wes Craven directs.
Take the fear home with a trio of terrifying tales:
The Last House on the Left (1972) Before Craven was serving up self-aware cinema, he was crafting some of the most deeply disturbing entries in the horror genre.

Luke Macfarlane at the opening night of the musical Dangerous Beauty in Pasadena, California
Remember the gay couple who sued because they were refused a room at a bed & breakfast? It brings up a very interesting quandary. Music executive Steve Stoute is furious that Eminem and Justin Bieber were snubbed at The Grammy Awards, and took out a full-page ad slamming the organization. I can only assume it was his rage delirium that caused him to refer to Eminem as,"The Bob Dylan of our time." The Amazing Race returned to good ratings last night with its "Unfinished Business" season, and below you can see a clip of Luke Adams celebrating the fact the fellow racer Vyxsin (who has an awesome/tragic name) knows sign language.
Christian Bale and Natalie Portman are probably locks for Oscars on Sunday, but there's at least one writer who doesn't think they're deserving. Speaking...

Dennis Hopper: Sunday Brunch With The last Rebel, Bristol
It would take a month of Sundays to do justice to Hopper's long and varied career, but this quartet is at least playing at a time of day the late American great might appreciate. Eat off that hangover with a "South West Full English" and watch four of Hopper's key films, even if his chemically enhanced performances might cause hangovers rather than cure them. In fact, this could well be part of a government safety campaign on the effects of different narcotics: Easy Rider (marijuana), Apocalypse Now (cocaine), Blue Velvet (solvent abuse) and The American Friend (Mogadon) – a tribute to Hopper's "range", then.

Tibet Film Festival, London & touring
It's not easy to "celebrate" Tibetan culture wholeheartedly when we might just as easily mourn its systematic destruction, but this festival tells us it's all right to do both.
