The Chronicle Take 2 (30.5) - Love Lies Bleeding
Thursday May 09, 2024
Thursday May 09, 2024
Revenge gets ripped apart in The Chronicle Take 2, the bonus episode for The Chronicle official podcast for The Peoples Movies. As promised, Love Lies Bleeding from Rose Glass.
Thank you very much to everyone who has listened to Episode 30, which was released earlier today. Myself and Clotilde Chinnici reviewed Rebel Moon Part 2: The Scargiver and Challengers. You can listen to that episode by clicking on the link below (if you are on The Peoples Movies) or via the podcast site you are using to listen to this new episode.
After the icy cold unholy terror of Saint Maud, the debut film by Rose Glass, we step back into 1980s New Mexico, USA. Kristen Stewart plays Lou, a gym manager leading a mundane life that is turned upside down when Jacky (Katy O’Brian) walks into the gym. Sparks fly and a full romance blossoms, but Lou has a dark past that catches up with her at the wrong times. Her father, Lou Snr (Ed Haris), just happens to be the local crimelord and Jacky’s employer.
This review was originally written for The Glasgow Film Festival and BFI Flare, and I do mention these festivals in the review.

Thursday May 09, 2024
If it’s movies you like, you are in the right place. The Chronicle,episode 030 has now arrived. Paul and Clotilde review two films, Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon Part 2: The Scargiver and Challengers.
First up is Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon Part 2: The Scargiver. Part one was epic in scale, but an epic failure in what mattered. For Part 2: The Scargiver, the surviving rebels head to Veldt. Sofia Boutella is back as Kora, who now leads her ragtag bunch of warriors defending the moon Vedt against the Imperium. She does have one thing standing inher way, Atticus Noble (Ed Skrein), who has returned from the grave.Was the damage done in part one, or will you give part two a go?
Our final film is Luca Guadagnino's Challengers, starring Zendaya, Josh O’Connor, and Mike Faist. The Dune star stars as Tashi Donaldson, a one-time tennis prodigy whose promising career ended prematurely. She would become the coach of her now-husband Art (Faist), a superstar going through acrisis. To boost his reputation, Art enters a local tournament, onlyto come up against Tashi’s former boyfriend, Patrick (O’Connor).

029 - Mothers Instinct & Civil War
Saturday Apr 20, 2024
Saturday Apr 20, 2024
Welcome back for another episode of The Chronicle, The official Podcast for The Peoples Movies. Paul and Clotilde are your hosts and if you love movies, your in the right place. For episode 029 we review Mothers Instinct and Civil War.
First review we go back to 1960's American Suburbia with Mothers Instinct. Starring Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain who are neighbours, best friends, sons are like brothers. This starts like as if it was taken from the pages of a Douglas Sirk melodrama, things get dark when tragedy hits. Who is responsible?
What If... is the great Fantasist's wet dream. What if something you would think of could happen did happen? Alex Garland's Civil War is one of those films now in UK and Irish cinemas. The United State now finds itself in it's second civil war and asks you, " what type of American are you?". Kirsten Dunst is veteran photojournalist Lee and mentor to Cailee Spaeney's Jesse as we follow the journalists making their way to Washington DC attempting to get the elusive interview. Is this a war movie? Political movie? a road more or something else?

028 - Monster & Robot Dreams

Friday Mar 29, 2024
It's that time again, Podcast time with The Chronicle film Podcast. For Episode 028 Paul and Clotilde review Hirokazu Kore-eda's Monster and Oscar nominated animation Robot Dreams.
After a slightly longer wait between the previous episode (027) due to illness business returns to normality. We first start things off in Japan with Kore-eda's power drama thriller Monster. Who is the monster? The film stars Kore-eda regular Sakura Ando whom we last saw in Godzilla Minus One. She is a single mother who knows something is wrong with her son who is acting strangely. When she learns, this is because of his school teacher, she confronts the school. We do see the film from three different perspectives: the mother, the son and the teacher.
Who said Animation was just for kids? Who said it has to be gritty and violent? Watch the oscar nominated Robot Dreams directed by Pablo Berger, based on Sara Varon's graphic novel of the same name. We go back to the 1980's and Manhattan, we follow Dog who builds himself a robot companion . After a day trip to the nearby beach Dog is forced to abandon his new friend will the pair ever reunite?

First up is Origin from director Ava Duvernay (Selma) starring Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor as Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Isabel Wilkerson, along side Jon Berthnal.

The unspoken system that has shaped America and chronicles how lives today are defined by a hierarchy of human divisions.
The second and final review is much anticipated sequel to Denis Villeneuve's Dune, Dune: Part Two. Based of the Frank Hebert's epic science fiction novels, following the mythic journey of Paul Atreides as he unites with Chani and the Fremen while on a warpath of revenge against the conspirators
who destroyed his family. Facing a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the known universe, he endeavours to prevent a terrible future only he can foresee. Paul now living on Arakis and living with the Fremen. His nightmares and visions seem to be increasing of his prophesized future. Timothee Chalamet is Paul starring alongside Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson, Josh Brolin, Florence Pugh, Austin Butler, Dave Bautista, Léa Seydoux with Stellan Skarsgård, Charlotte Rampling, and Javier Bardem.

Happy New Year to all our Podcast followers, The Chronicle is back with episode 025. Clotilde and Paul review two films Sofia Coppola's Priscilla and George Clooney's The Boys In The Boat.
The first episode for The Peoples Movies podcast for 2024 is Priscilla is the first film under the microscope. Released in UK cinemas on 1st January and soon to be released on MUBI. This film is based on 1985 memoir Elvis and Me written by Priscilla Presley and Sandra Harmon. Cailee Spaeny (Mare of Easttown) as Priscilla, Jacob Elordi (Euphoria, Saltburn) as Elvis Presley. When teenage Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley at a party, the man who is already a meteoric rock-and-roll superstar becomes someone entirely unexpected in private moments: a thrilling crush, an ally in loneliness, a vulnerable best friend. Through Priscilla’s eyes It promises to show an unseen side of a great American myth in Elvis and Priscilla’s long courtship and turbulent marriage, from a German army base to his dream-world estate at Graceland, in this deeply felt and ravishingly detailed portrait of love, fantasy, and fame.
The second and final film for review is George Clooney's The Boys In The Town. Starring Callum Turner, Joel Edgerton, Joe Rantz played by Callum Turner in the story of University of Washington rowing team who would take the challenge to represent their country at 1936 Berlin Olympics and win gold.
