Berlinale'69: Mr Jones film review.

 
Picture
​By Adam Ray Palmer
 
When visiting the 69th Berlin Film Festival, I knew very little about the film Mr Jones, and even less about the remarkable true story behind the script.
 
Mr Jones stars James Norton as the titular character with a supporting cast including Peter Sarsgaard, Vanessa Kirby and Kenneth Cranham.

Berlinale'69: The Operative film review.

 
Picture
​By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Yuval Adler returns to the Berlinale this year with his second ever feature, The Operative. His previous picture, Bethlehem, also premiered here in 2013.
 
You’d say that’s not bad to have a two-film career currently and both showing at a prestigious festival, but how prestigious is his new movie?

Berlinale'69: The Golden Glove film review.

 
Picture
​By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Fatih Akin returns to the Berlinale with his latest offering in the main competition, Der Goldene Handschuh (The Golden Glove).
 
Following up his respected 2017 picture, In The Fade, it was always going to be a difficult feat with what really has been a mixed bag career for Akin. And this one is certain for a polarising response.

Berlinale'69: Mid90s film review.

 
Picture
​By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Writing this makes me feel old, but Jonah Hill is at the Berlin Film Festival this year with his own film, Mid90s.
 
I remember over a decade ago, when he was the tender age of 21, the film that broke him and the film that made me howl… Superbad. Now writer and director, Hill brings us a coming-of-age drama for his first feature behind the camera.

Berlinale'69: Temblores (Tremors) film review.

 
Picture
​By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Writer and director Jayro Bustamante brings to the Berlinale a story stacked with controversies that this day and age, you’d hope wouldn’t be real.
 
Temblores, or Tremors in the English language, stars Juan Pablo Olyslager, Mauricio Armas and Diane Bathen as a trio who jostle in an unusual love triangle.

Picture
By Adam Ray Palmer
 
Casey Affleck returns to the big screen in 2019 with not only a starring role, but also occupying the director’s chair… and holding the writer’s pen… oh and finally the Producer’s purse-strings.
 
Kicking off my Berlinale this year is Affleck’s passion project, Light of My Life. This is the first time Casey has directed, written and co-produced a movie he has starred in. Now, let me tell you about it…
