Film Festivals

The 78th Cannes Film Festival has released its lineup of early awards season hopefuls for the 2025 edition, with five UK-backed films in the lineup.

Fresh off its success at the Glasgow Film Festival in February, the first trailer for the Jack Lowden-Tim Roth film Tornado has touched down.

Sundance Jury Prize winner Atropia sets up a film that needs to be seen to be believed. 

Bubble & Squeak should not be graded against the standard of an influential and experienced filmmaker. The problem with Evan Twohy’s first feature-length expression of his own voice is how flat and misguided his satire on modernity feels. 

The many frustrations of Plainclothes boil down to its unwillingness to complicate its personal drama, considering its most compelling elements are used in service of Lucas’ coming out story. 

While the Berlin International Film Festival (affectionately known as Berlinale) may not be the most famous of the Big Five International Festivals, but it is the most political, and 2025 is no exception.
