2011 Logo

In recent years we have seen Hollywood tap a variety of different resources in its ongoing search for new ideas. Stopping just short of sticking its hand down the side of the sofa and rummaging for loose inspiration, Tinseltown has instead chosen to adapt everything from the usual books, video games and television shows, to [...]

Melancholia poster

Much like Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Life earlier this year, Lars von Trier’s Melancholia is a bit of a divisive film.
