Seven years have gone by since director Coralie Fargeat made her feature directorial debut with a very cool revenge movie that was appropriately titled Revenge – you can read our 8/10 review of the film at This Link. Now Fargeat is back with an “explosive feminist take on body horror” called The Substance, which stars Demi Moore (Ghost) and Margaret Qualley (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood). The movie received a theatrical release last month (you can read our 9/10 review Here), and now it has been announced that The Substance will be available to stream exclusively on Mubi as of October 31st. No tricks – just a Halloween treat…
The film is gory, but also humorous, and it’s quite a wild ride. Here’s the official synopsis: It generates another you. A new, younger, more beautiful, more perfect you. And there’s only one rule: You share time. One week for you.

Harvey Weinstein’s multiple sex crimes charges have been consolidated ahead of his 2025 retrial, a Manhattan judge has ruled.
Weinstein appeared in court Wednesday morning for the first time since being diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia, a form of bone marrow cancer, earlier in the week.
Last month, Weinstein was indicted on an additional sex crimes charge after he was accused of sexually assaulting a woman in a Manhattan hotel on one occasion between April 29, 2006, and May 6, 2006. He pleaded not guilty to the charge. His upcoming retrial, which is undated but aiming for spring 2025, will address the latest charge, in addition to the original indictment. Prosecutors suggested an April 1 trial date; the next court hearing was set for Jan. 29.
In April, the New York Court of Appeals overturned Weinstein’s 2020 rape conviction. The appeals court ruled that Weinstein’s original trial committed an error by allowing three additional accusers to...

Updated with more details: A fragile-looking Harvey Weinstein showed up in a Manhattan courtroom Wednesday morning for proceedings in his upcoming new New York sex crimes trial. Entering the hearing in a wheelchair through a side door, it was the first public appearance of the much accused and convicted producer since it emerged he has cancer — specifically, chronic myeloid leukemia.
The news that Weinstein is receiving treatment for bone marrow cancer followed the incarcerated producer’s emergency heart and lung surgery in September. Additionally, Weinstein is facing a new indictment against him stemming from an allegation by an as-yet-unnamed accuser.
Weinstein’s health and legal woes had become increasingly intertwined even before his cancer diagnosis.

Unlike her fellow Hollywood colleagues Salma Hayek, Angelina Jolie, and Gwyneth Paltrow—Sandra Bullock admitted to having never received any unwanted attention from Harvey Weinstein. That’s perhaps because Bullock has a history of asking producers to fire her from films after being subjected to unwanted advances.

Meanwhile, although Sandra Bullock thankfully never faced any uncomfortable advances from Harvey Weinstein, that doesn’t mean she wasn’t scared of the disgraced producer. During an interview, Bullock opened up about how she never had the opportunity to collaborate with Weinstein, and she liked it that way due to her helplessness against a powerful man like him.

I’ll be honest with you. I didn’t think the industry had it in them for something like The Substance anymore. I thought the world had gone too soft for absurdist films that serve up some truly macabre hyperboles for things that are messed up enough, even without the need for any exaggeration. That was until Coralie Fargeat took a swing at creating a gory blend of multifaceted insecurities that took the reins of the feminine experience as a whole. In this Demi Moore-starrer, Fargeat intrudes into the heart of the toxic yardsticks that measure a woman’s worth–the ever-so-sexist entertainment industry.
Spoiler Alert
What happens in the film?
If you screamed out “but she looks so freaking good” every single time Elisabeth Sparkle was made to feel terrible about her fading youth in The Substance, you’re not alone. But this thought itself doesn’t exist...

It’s time to update your Golden Globe predictions at Gold Derby, because a major contender has just announced its awards strategy for the upcoming 2025 kudos. “The Substance” and its lead actress Demi Moore will compete in the Comedy/Musical categories, per our sister site The Hollywood Reporter. Previously, awards pundits assumed Mubi’s body horror flick would enter in the Drama races, but the satirical nature of the project convinced the campaigners — after a “debate even within the film’s and Moore’s camps” — to try their luck elsewhere.
This news comes on the heels of the November 4 submission deadline for the 2025 Golden Globes. THR’s Scott Feinberg previously unveiled the campaign strategies for many of the other films that could be seen as straddling the line between Drama and Comedy/Musical.

Patrick J. Adams doesn’t know why he keeps being tapped to play characters embroiled in the legal world. After playing college dropout turned (un)licensed lawyer Mike Ross in eight seasons of the hit USA drama Suits, Adams starred as a time-traveling attorney in the CBC anthology Plan B. Now, in an upcoming episode of the Fox anthology Accused, the Canadian actor plays an abrasive tech entrepreneur whose facial-recognition software is brought to open court.
“I seem to be cast in roles of people who are the smart guy, the guy who’s got a brain that’s moving very quickly, sometimes for better or for worse,” Adams tells The Hollywood Reporter. “That seems to be a role that people want me to play, and I don’t necessarily think that I am very smart.

Gabriel Macht only needed his role as Harvey Specter to establish a name for himself in the industry. He played the role for nine seasons of the USA network show Suits starting in 2011. Macht recalled that when he took on the role, it was the first time since 2000 that he played a series role. He tried to bring too much character development for Harvey in Season 1 itself before realizing his mistake.

Matt Damon claimed that he did not know about Harvey Weinstin’s antics before the ‘Me Too’ movement. The Weinstein Effect took over the world in 2017, leading to the widespread ‘Me Too’ movement. Prominent Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein was accused of s*xual misconduct by over eighty women.
Damon mentioned that if he had known that Weinstein was doing this at events he was present in, he would have stopped it. The actor, whose breakout film Good Will Hunting was produced by the disgraced movie mogul, also claimed that he did not pressure a journalist to bury an article that exposed Weinstein’s antics long before the movement.

It was the night before Valentine’s Day in 1995, and Jennifer Tilly was sitting in a hotel room, feeling a strange electrical charge in the air.
The Oscar nominations would be announced the following morning, and Tilly had no reason to be optimistic. The actress had earned glowing reviews from critics for her robust comedic performance in “Bullets Over Broadway,” which opened in theaters 30 years ago this week. But it was her co-star Dianne Wiest who had swept the critics awards and won the Golden Globe and was a lock to receive a nomination.
And though Tilly had eagerly promoted her own work in the film – read on to find all about the unique strategy of her campaign – she had not garnered a single precursor citation anywhere and was considered a long shot, generously speaking.

I have a few bones to pick with the pilot in this Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage Season 1 Episode 1 review, but overall, it turned out to be a better show than expected.
Pilots are always tricky to judge because the show hasn’t fully found its voice yet, but Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage had potential once it got past its first five minutes.
Getting to know Georgie better made the show work, though there were a few things that needed to be ironed out.
(CBS/Troy Harvey)
More of Georgie, Less Stupid Meta Comedy, Please
The opening was rough because the series insisted on sticking in an unnecessary meta joke about laugh tracks in the first scene.
I don’t like laugh tracks, so I didn’t need commentary on how great it was that this show had one.

French director and screenwriter Coralie Fargeat is back with a bang after her 2017 debut feature film “Revenge.” A powerful voice in reiterating gender issues, her works challenge societal norms and gender stereotypes, often exploring themes of rebirth, female empowerment, and the complexities of human nature. In her sophomore feature “The Substance” (2024), she continues her winning streak with her characteristic “blunt, bloody, and stylish” films, which are a fusion of exploitation and feminism.
It is a mind-blowing and gasp-inducing farcical film belonging to the genre of body horror/splatter film that challenges stereotypical conceptions of body image, beauty standards, and aging. In “The Substance,” Coralie Fargeat refashions the Jekyll and Hyde trope to develop a story in which a fading celebrity Elisabeth Sparkle uses a cell-replicating injectable substance to swap bodies with a younger, hotter, better version of herself. In the subsequent feud with the manifestation of her enhanced self, she...

A new retrospective focused on Quentin Tarantino's masterpiece "Pulp Fiction" in Variety revealed the that notorious — and disgraced — producer Harvey Weinstein had a very clear idea regarding the film's casting, and he was ultimately overruled.
Journalist Todd Gilchrist spoke to a ton of people involved with the Oscar-winning film and learned, through executive producer Danny DeVito, executive producer Michael Shamberg, and producer Lawrence Bender, that Weinstein really wanted Daniel Day-Lewis to play Vincent Vega, the role that ultimately went to John Travolta. DeVito had an overall development deal at TriStar Pictures and got final cut on his projects there. As he recalled, he spoke to Weinstein, who insisted that Day-Lewis — who had just won his Academy Award for "My Left Foot — play Vincent.

Rosanna Arquette had to wait 30 years to be able to appreciate Quentin Tarantino’s “Pulp Fiction.”
The actress, who plays the character Jody in the ensemble film, told Variety that she originally had to leave the 1994 film premiere as the feature was “so violent.” Arquette further reflected on the “cringe-worthy moments” in the Academy Award-winning script co-written by Roger Avary.
“I was pregnant when it came out, and I remember going into it and it was so violent my mom and I had to leave. So I’d never sat and watched it as a cinema experience until 30 years later at the Chinese Theatre [during the TCM Film Festival retrospective],” she said. “It’s still this cultural phenomenon, but also I still have the issue of, enough with the N-word. For me, that’s always been an issue, and I didn’t realize how much it was an issue until I saw it this last time.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary on Oct. 14, “Pulp Fiction” has left a massive footprint on moviemaking.
Originally conceived as an anthology by writer-director Quentin Tarantino and his longtime friend, collaborator and Video Archives coworker Roger Avary, the film evolved into a funny, violent, endlessly inventive, non-linear odyssey. In addition to reviving the career of John Travolta, minting a star in Samuel L. Jackson and spawning a still-thriving cottage industry of knockoffs and imitation films, “Pulp” earned the 1994 Cannes Film Festival Palme d’Or, seven Academy Award nominations and one win (for Tarantino and Avary’s screenplay), while its commercial success ($213 million off of an $8.5 million budget) forever changed the economics of independent cinema.
To commemorate the legacy and impact of “Pulp Fiction,” Variety spoke with more than 20 members of the film’s cast and crew to solicit their experiences and recollections. Armed with more than 100 pages of interviews, we’ve elected...

Donald Trump may have refused to do a second debate with Kamala Harris, but Saturday Night Live had another idea for them to face off one more time before the election.
Maya Rudolph’s Harris and James Austin Johnson’s Trump met once again on NBC’s sketch comedy show, only this time it was on the Family Feud stage with Kenan Thompson’s Steve Harvey.
“I am Steve Harvey and I have spent the past 20 years hosting every show on TV as my alibi for them Diddy parties,” Harvey says. “Now tonight, we got two political rivals.”
He then proceeded to introduce the Democrats’ side, which included Harris (Rudolph), Tim Walz (Jim Gaffigan), Joe Biden (Dana Carvey) and Douglas Emhoff (Andy Samberg). On the Republicans’ side, it was Trump (Johnson), J.D. Vance (Bowen Yang), Donald Trump Jr. (Mikey Day) and a missing Melania Trump.

“Saturday Night Live” packed in every political face it could on Saturday’s show as the cold open featured a game of “Family Feud” with Team Harris vs. Team Trump.
The game show setup allowed for Maya Rudolph’s Kamala Harris, Andy Samberg’s Doug Emhoff, Jim Gaffigan’s Tim Walz, Dana Carvey’s Joe Biden, James Austin Johnson’s Donald Trump, Bowen Yang’s Jd Vance and Mikey Day’s Donald Trump Jr. to all appear in the same sketch, and worked well enough.
The game was, of course, hosted by Kenan Thompson’s Steve Harvey, who kicked off the proceedings by introducing himself and saying he’s “spent the last 20 years hosting every show on TV.”

Saturday Night Live mocked Donald Trump’s refusal to do another debate and instead had him face off with Kamala Harris in Family Feud.
With Kenan Thompson as emcee Steve Harvey, the cold open brought back the election-season regulars: Maya Rudolph as Harris, joined by her “family” of Andy Samberg as Doug Emhoff, Jim Gaffigan as Tim Walz and Dana Carvey as Joe Biden. James Austin Johnson was joined by Mikey Day as Don Jr. and Bowen Yang as Jd Vance, with one spot missing for Melania Trump.
“It’s so strange. I could have sworn she was standing right beside me about two years ago,” Trump said, as Harvey introduced the team players.

Most moviegoers can’t remember the last time they saw silly, campy fun on the big screen. That’s because not nearly enough of them saw Bottoms.
“Camp” in comedy is hard to define scientifically, and it’s mostly understood through examples. For instance, The Rocky Horror Picture show is considered the quintessential camp flick for its over-the-top performances, garish aesthetic and the inherent silliness of its excess. But, hey, nobody saw that movie in theaters either. In fact, it’s kind of an unspoken rule that campy comedy films can’t make a single dollar at the box office, a standard that the literal camp comedy classic Wet Hot American Summer staunchly upheld upon its release in 2001.
However, and though many of these camp comedies failed to achieve mainstream popularity, they succeeded in influencing the next generation of filmmakers who would carry on the tradition of unashamed, unrestrained playfulness,...

It looks like the behind-the-scenes of Hollywood is getting more and more attention these days. The whole situation with rapper Diddy has been a hot topic for a while, but Harvey Weinstein can’t be forgotten.

Guillermo del Toro, who had a movie produced by his production company, opened up about the stress he faced during that time.

The crowd carefully steps around, photographing & admiring it. Seasons merge rapidly with the passing of time. Noticeable cracks start to appear on it as people carelessly walk all over it & even tarnish it with an accidental ketchup smear. The camera slowly inches closer to the star to intimately observe its displeasing, vulnerable & stained atrocity.

Actor Gabriel Macht is best known for his role as Harvey Specter in the legal drama Suits. The actor’s swagger and sophisticated performance received renewed interest last year when it debuted on Netflix and introduced Specter to a whole new generation of audiences. The response was so good that a spinoff show is currently in development.
Macht has prided himself in being a family man and has, in fact, taken a break from acting ever since the end of the series. However, even while filming he managed to keep his family close, with his wife Jacinda Barrett and his father Stephen Macht playing recurring roles. One rumor about his daughter Satine being a part of the series was debunked.

Spoiler Alert: This article contains major spoilers for the ending of “Joker: Folie à Deux” now playing in theaters.
Joaquin Phoenix dons his clown makeup once again in “Joker: Folie à Deux,” the follow-up to his Oscar-winning performance from 2019. This time, he’s joined by fellow Oscar winner Lady Gaga, who plays another iconic DC Comics villain, Harley Quinn.
The comic book sequel takes place after the events of “Joker,” with Phoenix’s killer clown Arthur Fleck on trial for the murders he committed in the first movie. His lawyer, played by Catherine Keener, argues that Arthur and Joker are two different people. She claims that after years of childhood abuse, Arthur developed an alter-ego that’s separate from his own mind. The prosecution is led by assistant district attorney Harvey Dent, played by “Industry” star Harry Lawtey, who’s later known as the disfigured villain Two Face in the Batman comics.
