  1. Asghar Farhadi goes for maximum emotional impact in his films

    CANNES, France — "Stories come to me," says Asghar Farhadi, his sharp eyes focused, intense. "This one came to me, and I decided to follow it."
    CANNES, France — "Stories come to me," says Asghar Farhadi, his sharp eyes focused, intense. "This one came to me, and I decided to follow it." It sounds straightforward, simple even, but nothing about the filmmaker's latest work, "The Past," fits...

  2. Cannes Film Festival projects cross-cultural cinema

  3. Review: 'Rust and Bone' defines romance in its own way

    Romantic but pitiless, fearlessly emotional as well as edgy, "Rust and Bone" is a powerhouse. It's the kind of risky venture only a consummate filmmaker could manage, and then only with the help of actors who are daring and accomplished. With director Jacques Audiard in charge and Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts as stars, all the pieces have fallen exactly into place.

  4. 'Rust and Bone's' Marion Cotillard dives head-first into roles

    She's described by director Jacques Audiard as "a diver," someone who "throws herself into a role head first."
    She's described by director Jacques Audiard as "a diver," someone who "throws herself into a role head first." So it's believable that the very first scene Marion Cotillard shot for "Rust and Bone" was the most harrowing one, in which she awakes in a...

  7. Foreign-language Oscar nominees portray true grittiness

    In 2008, the committee that oversees the Oscars' foreign-language film category came under withering criticism for avoiding risky movies. Romania's "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days," a frank account of a young girl's illegal abortion, wasn't nominated, nor was France's "Persepolis" (a coming-of-age story set against the Iranian Revolution).

  10. 'Rust and Bone' headed to Capitol Theatre

     Merely the premise of "Rust and Bone" sounds uncomfortably maudlin: A wayward single father and part-time fighter falls into an unexpected romance with a beautiful whale trainer who's just lost both her legs below the knee in a freak accident. Both...

  11. Movie gangsters so bad they're good

    One hundred and one years ago, D.W. Griffith gave us "The Musketeers of Pig Alley," often credited as the first gangster film, and once sound came in, nothing hooked movie audiences during the early 1930s more reliably than Edward G. Robinson or James Cagney doing harm to their rivals and, for a while, eluding the law while enjoying the spoils of their own private wars.

  12. Toronto's Hollywood juggernaut can't swamp indie pleasures

    In "Argo," one of the leanest satisfactions of this year's massive Toronto International Film Festival, director and star Ben Affleck anchors a movie based on the true story about how Central Intelligence Agency operative Tony Mendez faked his way into Iran following the 1979 hostage crisis posing as a film producer scouting locations for a Canadian science-fiction film called "Argo." Under that cover story, Mendez engineered the rescue of six American hostages, themselves posing as part of the fake film crew.
