I didn’t realize it was based on a book that is fans really wanted to see adapted! RIP to them.

The director, amazingly, agrees that we all collectively share the blame of the final product together, and he’s humbly just as responsible for it as the rest of us.

The number one movie on Prime Video this week is the new rom-com The Love Hypothesis, adapted from the novel by Ali Hazelwood. Directed by Claire Scanlon, the movie stars Tom Bateman and Lili Reinhart as a professor and a PhD student who enter into a fake relationship, each for their own reasons. It’s a fairly formulaic romance built on classic tropes, but the film has received largely favorable reviews from critics and has drawn high viewership.

Chris Hansen criticises film 'Primetime' as 'bizarre' and detached from reality
Chris Hansen, the host of the television series 'To Catch A Predator', has publicly criticised the new film 'Primetime', which is based on his life and career. The film, directed by Lance Oppenheim and starring Robert Pattinson as Hansen, is adapted from an Esquire article titled 'Tonight on Dateline This Man Will Die'. Hansen has viewed the film and expressed his dissatisfaction, describing it as 'bizarre' and 'detached from reality or anything I’ve ever experienced then or now doing the investigations'. In an X video, he stated, 'It was so bizarre and so in-and-out of reality. Obviously, I’m not objective because the character is me, but it was so detached from reality or anything I’ve ever experienced then or now doing the investigations. I’m not sure what the point of it was.' Hansen further elaborated on the 'Have a Seat with Chris Hansen' podcast, where he spoke with Fox News' Jesse Watters. He gave Robert Pattinson's performance a 'D' grade and claimed the film was largely fictional. He was particularly upset that the film portrayed him as an 'aloof, detached father to my sons', which he stated was 'so far from reality'. Hansen argued that this portrayal was 'a cheap shot with no entertainment, literary or benefit to any viewer or society' and described the film as 'mean-spirited, untrue and unworthy of the viewer’s time'. However, he acknowledged that fans of A24 or Robert Pattinson should 'make up their own mind' and watch the film, while noting that it is 'absolutely a fictional portrayal of me, of my colleagues, of the series and of the very hard, diligent enterprise work that we did then and do now.' Hansen had previously purchased advertising space before screenings of 'Primetime' to promote his true crime network, TruBlu. The film also features actors such as Merritt Wever, Skyler Gisondo, Matthew Maher, Anna Faris, Alex Winter, and Phoebe Bridgers, who has released a new song titled 'On Video' for the film. NME's four-star review of 'Primetime' described it as 'a smartly acted and queasily effective drama', adding that it is 'a tricky uncomfortable story, Primetime is unsettling but worth the effort.'

Rare Behind-the-Scenes Photos Reveal Richard Gere and Jodie Foster's Chemistry During 1993 Film 'Sommersby' Production
The article presents 34 vintage photographs capturing Richard Gere and Jodie Foster during the filming of the 1993 romantic drama 'Sommersby,' directed by Jon Amiel. The film, adapted from the 1982 French film 'Le Retour de Martin Guerre,' is set during the Reconstruction era following the American Civil War. It tells the story of Laurel Sommersby (played by Foster), who questions whether the man claiming to be her long-lost husband Jack Sommersby (played by Gere) is truly who he says he is. The production was filmed primarily in Bath County and Charlotte County, Virginia, where filmmakers constructed a period-accurate 19th-century rural town set featuring tobacco fields, timber structures, and period farm equipment to authentically recreate post-war rural Southern dynamics. The film's cinematography, handled by legendary French cinematographer Philippe Rousselot, utilized soft daylight and candlelight to achieve a warm, naturalistic palette matching the 1870s setting. The article notes that the film marked a significant star pairing for Warner Bros. following Gere's success in 'Pretty Woman' (1990) and Foster's back-to-back Oscar wins for 'The Accused' and 'The Silence of the Lambs.' Both actors were noted for balancing intense dramatic preparation with a relaxed collaborative rapport between takes. 'Sommersby' was released in the United States on February 5, 1993, by Warner Bros., received generally positive critical reviews praising the lead performances and chemistry, as well as Danny Elfman's musical score, and became a box office success grossing over $140 million worldwide on a $30 million budget. The article is published on Vintage Everyday, a website that features vintage photographs and historical content, with the specific post dated September 28, 2026, though this date appears to be a future date that may be an error in the source material. The article includes standard website elements such as advertisements, social media links, and related content sections, which are typical of the site's format but not part of the news content itself.

New 'Sense & Sensibility' Film Features Period-Appropriate 18th-Century Folk Music in Soundtrack

New 'Sense & Sensibility' Film Features Period-Appropriate 18th-Century Folk Music in Soundtrack
The new adaptation of Jane Austen's 'Sense & Sensibility,' directed by Georgia Oakley and adapted by Diana Reid, has arrived in UK cinemas, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones as Elinor Dashwood and Esmé Creed-Miles as Marianne Dashwood. The film, released on September 25, 2026, follows the Dashwood family after the death of Mr. Dashwood, leaving the women to face reduced circumstances and a move to a Devon cottage. The story involves complex relationships with Edward Ferrars, John Willoughby, and Colonel Brandon, portrayed by George MacKay, Frank Dillane, and Herbert Nordrum, respectively. The film's soundtrack stands out for its use of specially recorded 18th-century English folk music, rather than modern pop songs or contemporary covers. Music supervisor Connie Farr sourced and recorded these period-appropriate songs to fit the film's late-1790s setting. The Fibonacci Quartet performs in the movie and features on the soundtrack, with Graham McCusker serving as music director and pianist. Composer Roger Goula created the original score, with his work directly influenced by early footage of the film. Director Oakley noted that approximately 80% of Goula's initial musical sketches were used in the final film, making it distinct from the 1995 Ang Lee adaptation, which featured Patrick Doyle's Oscar-nominated score including 'Weep You No More Sad Fountains.' The film also stars Caitríona Balfe, Fiona Shaw, Stacy Martin, and Tom Brooke. This approach to the soundtrack emphasizes historical authenticity, aligning with the film's period setting and offering a fresh take on the classic story.

Steeped in southern-gothic shadows by influential cinematographer Karl Struss and shot through with moral ambiguity, it is a harrowing vision of sin and salvation.

Didn't think this historical drama adapted from a 17th century novel by Madame de La Fayette, directed by Bertrand Tavernier would be quite to my liking, but against all expectations I thought it was a rather well made film. Featured below are the 4 main characters. I tend to find Tavernier too
