"An inquiry into the broken nature of grace." Oscope Labs has revealed an official trailer for Wildcat, the latest feature film directed by beloved American actor Ethan Hawke, following up his feature Blaze from 2018. This one originally premiered at the 2023 Telluride & Toronto Film Festivals last year, with stops at Zurich & Stockholm as well. This time it's a family affair - it follows the life of writer Flannery O'Connor while she was struggling to publish her first novel (titled "Wise Blood" published in 1952), starring Ethan's own daughter Maya Hawke as Flannery. Directed & co-written by 4-time Academy Award nominee Ethan Hawke, Wildcat invites viewers to weave in & out of celebrated Southern Gothic writer Flannery O'Connor's mind as she ponders the great questions of her writing: Can scandalous art still serve God? Does suffering precede all greatness? Can illness be a blessing? Some intriguing ideas. The film also stars Laura Linney, Philip Ettinger, Rafael Casal, Cooper Hoffman, and Christine Dye. This does look quite impressive, with some nice filmmaking flourishes to enhance her story as she ...

"It has all led to this... Fight together or face extinction!!" Only a few weeks until this lands in theaters. Warner Bros and Legendary have revealed another official "Legacy" trailer for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, opening in theaters at the end of March (here's the other official trailer). Once again directed by Adam Wingard, in The New Empire the two mega monsters Godzilla and King Kong have to team up to take on a "colossal undiscovered threat hidden within our world" - which seems to be some kind of vicious "Red Ape" massive chimpanzee along with other mega monsters that will happily destroy all of humanity. GxK also delves further into the histories of these Titans and their origins, as well as the mysteries of Skull Island & beyond, while spending more time in the Hollow Earth realm where Kong is from. The Godzilla x Kong cast features Dan Stevens, Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, Rachel House, and Alex Ferns. This latest trailer opens with footage from all of the previous US Godzilla movies, starting with Gareth Edwards' ...

"What kind of man is he?" Janus Films has revealed a brand new trailer for the 4K restoration re-release of an all-timer hitman classic called Le Samouraï. This French noir thriller first opened in France in 1967, only showing up in the US in 1972. It is widely considered one of the best assassin films ever made, and is often referenced by many great filmmakers in terms of style and minimalism. After professional hitman Jef Costello is seen by witnesses, his efforts to provide himself an alibi drive him further into a corner. Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Samouraï stars French legend Alain Delon as Costello, a contract killer with samurai instincts. The cast also includes François Périer, Nathalie Delon, and Caty Rosier. Roger Ebert wrote a 4 star review in 1997, stating: "The movie teaches us how action is the enemy of suspense--how action releases tension, instead of building it. Better to wait for a whole movie for something to happen (assuming we really care whether it happens) than to sit through a film where things we don't care about are ...
