Upcoming french belgian film

After thirty-five years abroad, Donal returns to his native Scotland to make amends with his estranged brother Sandy.

The film is a fairy-tale comedy about a workaholic man who enlists the help of a magical genie to help win his family back before Christmas.

John Vandermark (Cumming) has taken in a struggling writer, Sebastian St. Germain (Boreanaz), who overstays his welcome. When John discovers that Sebastian has simply been using him, he turns the tables on his young tenant in an effort to make him work off his rent debt. When Sebastian dies accidentally in the process, John tries to make it up to him by helping him get his book published posthumously. When the book is published, John can't help but take credit for the work of genius... and Sebastian comes back to haunt him.

The Avengers, Wakandans, Fantastic Four, Thunderbolts, and X-Men all fight against Doctor Doom. Plot TBA.

Former nurse-turned-exotic animal broker Tonia Haddix, who refers to herself as the “Dolly Parton of chimps”, spends her days caring for animals in captivity. However, her limitless love for one chimpanzee in particular spins into a wild cat-and-mouse game with authorities and an animal rights group.

A conservative plumber from a small east coast village who travels to Toronto in order to get his brother out of jail after he is arrested for having sex with another man in a public park. At the insistence of their strong willed mother, the two brothers must drive the 1000 mile trip back home to New Brunswick, together - discovering each other and themselves along the way.

A retired veterinarian living in a remote Scottish village encounters a goat who thinks he's a dog, an Admiral who's afraid of the water, and a beaver who was raised by rabbits.

Two not-too-bright party girls reinvent themselves for their high school reunion. Armed with a borrowed Jaguar, new clothes and the story of their success as the inventors of Post-It notes, Romy and Michele descend on their alma mater, but their façade crumbles quickly.

Like in most of Samuel Beckett’s texts, Endgame deals with characters outside of society, waiting and looking in vain for something unknown in a nondescript, apocalyptical place. Its characters are bound towards each other by an invisible chain of co-dependency that knows no way out. Contrary to this bleak topic, it is a strikingly funny play with a number of comic elements, physical and verbal. Endgame was Robert Wilson's 10th production at the Berliner Ensemble since 1998.
“This poignancy and consequence. This concentration. This severity. This humor. ... No sentimentality, but the echo of a world in turmoil.”
— Der Tagesspiegel (Rüdiger Schaper), Dec. 4, 2016

Hamm kann nicht stehen, Clov kann nicht sitzen, Hamm ist der Herr, Clov der Diener, beide sind zum Überleben aufeinander angewiesen. In zwei Mülleimern Nagg und Nell, Hamms Eltern, die „verfluchten Erzeuger“, auch sie können nicht fort. Gemeinsam spielen sie ein nie endendes „Endspiel“ gegen die Hoffnungslosigkeit, trotzen der untergehenden Welt mit unerbittlicher Ironie und heiterer Verzweiflung, denn: „Nichts ist komischer als das Unglück.“ Robert Wilson verwandelt mit Becketts ENDSPIEL erneut einen der Klassiker der Weltliteratur in sein Zaubertheater für alle Sinne. Der amerikanische Regisseur, Bühnenbildner, Architekt, Künstler..., der selbst seit 2009 als „Krapp“in Becketts LETZTEMBANDauf der Bühne steht, und dessen Inszenierungen auf der ganzen Welt zu sehen sind, hat im BERLINERENSEMBLEseit Jahren eine künstlerische Heimat gefunden. 1998 inszeniert Wilson zum ersten Mal am BE(Brechts OZEANFLUG), und Stücke wie LEONCEUNDLENA, DIEDREIGROSCHENOPER,SHAKESPEARESSONETTE, PETERPANund zuletzt FAUSTI UNDII prägen den Spielplan des Theaters mit seiner unvergleichlichen künstlerischen Handschrift.

《X战警2》蓝光花絮

Few musicals can claim to capture the mood of a historical period as well as the 1972 classic Cabaret.
Liza Minnelli's unforgettable portrayal of singer Sally Bowles and the film's stylish recreation of the era have become defining images of Weimar Berlin.
In this documentary, actor Alan Cumming explores the truths behind the fiction. He meets many of those closely involved with the original film, including Liza Minnelli, and talks to cabaret artists, among them acclaimed performer Ute Lemper.
Alan explores the origins of the Cabaret story in the writings of Christopher Isherwood and uncovers the story of the real life Sally Bowles, a woman very different from her fictional counterpart.
He talks to the composer of Cabaret about the inspiration for the film's most famous songs and discovers the stories of the original composers and performers, among them Marlene Dietrich. Finally, Alan reveals the tragic fate of many of the cabaret artists at the hands of the Nazis.
The documentary pays tribute to the magic of the original film and explores the fascinating and often shocking reality of the people and stories that inspired it.

Benjamin Zephaniah, renowned Rastafarian poet/rapper is traveling by train from Birmingham to Cambridge to receive his Creative Arts Fellowship sharing a carriage with a racist and philistine car spares salesman played by Timothy Spall; by chance the poets Keats, Byron, Shelley and writer Mary Shelley are transported from a séance they are conducting in The Villa Como by a freak electrical storm. AQ battle of wits, drug taking and poetry performance ensues! —Andy Wilson

television series

第一幕

("Overture")

來到倫敦的貧民區，演員們唱出這個罪貫滿盈的城市之中，以大盜麥希為首惡。("The Ballad of Mack the Knife")丐幫幫主積隆歡迎新加入的成員，並教他一套在這個地方可以活下去的法則。("Peachum's Morning Choral")他與其妻討論女兒波莉的新男友，當他們赫然發現那便是麥希的時候深感不妙，要阻止這頭婚事。("The Instad Of Song")另一邊廂，麥希和他的爪牙們正準備著婚禮，並要爪牙們唱歌助興。("Wedding Song")他以恐佈統領他們，為了緩和氣氛波莉也來一曲。("Pirate Jenny")突然線報指警察頭子布朗殺到，麥希跟之一輪招呼後才揭示二人是軍旅好友的關係。("Army Song")在布朗祝福麥希之後，沒有承諾沒有介指的婚禮便進行。("Love Song")回到家中波莉宣佈他已經與麥希結婚的消息，("Barbara Song")積隆夫妻焦急不已，決定要不擇手段從中作梗。而他們的籌碼卻是想利用布朗和麥希的關係去捉住麥希。("Act I Finale")

第二幕

波莉回去警告麥希，他卻不大當是一回事，("Melodrama")更將事業交給波莉處理，自己暫時避一避風頭。("Polly's Song")但積隆太太深知這男人好色成性，("Ballad of Sexual Dependency")必定會去妓院找老相好珍妮，便預先買通了她。果然，麥希又回到這溫柔窩，("Pimp's Ballad")正當他沉醉在聲色犬馬之中的時候，("Ballad of the Pleasant Life")警察們殺到，畢竟麥希是通緝犯，這下布朗也不能不將之逮捕了。在牢獄中麥希以言語哄布朗之女露茜放他出去，更不惜棄波莉於不顧。("Jealousy Duet")果然這讓露茜軟化了，("Aria of Lucy")放了他出去。積隆得知後便去威脅布朗，如果他不捉回麥希的話便會帶領群丐搗亂英女皇的嘉冕儀式，陪上布朗的仕途。("Act II Finale")

第三幕

珍妮來到找積隆討賞，積隆指麥希已逃故要賴帳。然而，珍妮卻指麥希現正在妓女家中風流快活呢。("Song of Insufficiency of Human Struggling")布朗趕到要捉走積隆和妓女們，卻已經太遲，他現下除了抓住麥希之外別無選擇。("Reminiscence")珍妮回想當年和麥希的一段情，嗟嘆現下角色互換得真快。("Solomon Song")麥希不斷尋找方法逃走，("Call From the Grave")但無論是他的手下或是波莉都已經不能幫助他。("Grave Inscription")在最後和布朗算清恩仇之後，麥希在群丐見証下步向絞刑台。("Walk to Gallows")積龍向觀眾說：這可不是個好結局，還是還你們一個大團圓吧。所以，突然女皇的使者駕到，大赦麥希，更加官晉爵，不用再為錢銀憂愁。眾人回復演員身份，要觀眾想一想劇中的意義，尤其是那句名言：究竟搶劫銀行的人罪大，還是擁有它的人才是犯罪者？(Act III Finale")

Through both comedy and tragedy, "Seagull" explores lives that are precariously balanced between love and indifference, success and failure, hope and despair. The first of what are considered to be Chekhov's four great plays, it sets the scene for the playwright's unmistakable mix of melancholia and laughter combined with a unique understanding of the daily torment of an unfulfilled.
