‘The Echo Chamber’ Review: Luca Marinelli, Alicia Vikander and Susan Sarandon Reverberate Through a Smoky, Somber Single-Location Love Story

If you’re ever thinking of attempting a single-location film, choose that location with care. Make it high-ceilinged, light-filled, book-lined, with a reading-nook conservatory area, a gargantuan sofa, a killer sound system and space enough that you don’t even have to turn sideways to sidle past the grand piano. If possible, have it overlook a neatly […]

At Telluride Film Festival, Bill Gates Compares Lack of Control Over AI to HAL in ‘2001’: ‘You Could Say “Please Shut Down,” and It Would Say, “OK, I Took That Under Advisement, But…”‘

Plenty of comparisons have been made in recent years between fast-developing artificial intelligence systems and HAL, the rogue computer in Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey” that operated by its own sets of rules, ultimately disregarding human oversight. If that comparison ever seemed overstated, it may be worth knowing that tech mogul Bill Gates is […]

‘Possible Love’ Review: Korean Master Lee Chang-dong Returns With a Beautifully Mature, Quietly Colossal Relationship Drama

One of the key moments from Lee Chang-dong’s last film, 2018’s “Burning,” still glows bright in the memory. A girl mimes eating a tangerine, and explains the knack for making it convincing: Don’t try to pretend there is a tangerine, try to forget there is not. It’s a little zen koan that rhymes imperfectly in […]

Some of the main breakouts of Swiss cinema in 2026—and the few years that precede it—share one striking commonality: they are either entirely in English or feature large chunks of English.

In “Woman Unknown,” May el-Toukhy takes a closer look at women accused of having relationships with German soldiers during World War II. “When we started to build a story about a ‘horizontal collaborator,’ we realized that, during and after the war, the female body became part of national identity.
