Available from 15yh April on : Mr. Turner
Director:Mike Leigh
Stars:Timothy Spall, Paul Jesson, Dorothy Atkinson
Mr. Turner explores the last quarter century of the great if eccentric British painter J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851). Profoundly affected by the death of his father, loved by a housekeeper he takes for granted and occasionally exploits sexually, he forms a close relationship with a seaside landlady with whom he eventually lives incognito in Chelsea, where he dies. Throughout this, he travels, paints, stays with the country aristocracy, visits brothels, is a popular if anarchic member of the Royal Academy of Arts, has himself strapped to the mast of a ship so that he can paint a snowstorm, and is both celebrated and reviled by the public and by royalty.
Vanaf 15 april op DVD en Blu-ray : Mr. Turner

American Power Trio PRONG is getting ready to release an album of cover versions, putting their distinct spin on an array of tracks originally recorded by artists such as Black Flag, Bad Brains, Adolescents, The Sisters Of Mercy, Killing Joke, Hüsker Dü and Neil Young.
Tommy Victor: “Prong is very excited about the upcoming release of our new record, "Songs From The Black Hole", and equally excited about the artwork and packaging! Since the record explores Prong's roots musically and geographically, this needed to be expressed visually and this was attained. With the help of our art director Mike Lopez, the theme of urban decay, desolation, insecurity and ultimate change that prevails in the music has been brought to the surface in images. Since much of Prong's origins come from a place of abandonment, we feel our new album artwork fully reflects this sentiment. I think one can get a grip of the hard hitting, dangerous sounds inside from a glimpse of the packaging of "Songs From The Black Hole". We certainly hope you enjoy this latest release, inside and out.“

Tom Hanks will reprise the role of Robert Langdon, the Harvard symbologist and main character of Dan Brown's series of bestselling books. The Inferno film will be directed by Ron Howard, the director of 2006's The Da Vinci Code and its sequel, Angels and Demons (2009). It is expected that the film will be released in December 2015, according to film industry website Deadline.
The decision to adapt Inferno for film follows a dispute over the third installment of Brown's series, The Lost Symbol. In 2012 it was announced that Danny Strong, an Emmy-winning writer who also played Jonathan Levinson in television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, would adapt the novel for a screenplay. However, Howard refused to direct the film and little has been heard about the project since.
Inferno sold nearly a quarter of a million copies in its first week of release, although this is half the 550,000 copies The Lost Symbol sold on publication in 2009. However, the film franchise has traditionally performed well for Sony, who own the film rights: the first film grossed more than £500 million worldwide, with Angels and Demons raking in £320 million at the global box office.
Robert Langdon, het personage ontwikkeld door Dan Brown, komt tot leven in INFERNO en zal vertolkt worden door Tom Hanks.
INFERNO volgt de avonturen van Harvard professor symboliek, Robert Langdon. Wanneer Langdon met geheugenverlies wakker wordt in een Italiaans hospitaal, probeert hij samen met dokter Sienna Brooks zijn geheugen terug te krijgen en zo te voorkomen dat een gek, geinspireerd door Dante's Inferno, een wereldwijde plaag de wereld instuurt.
Naast Tom Hanks bestaat de internationale cast uit de Fransman Omar Sy (Les Intouchables, X-Men: Days of Future Past, Jurassic World), Indiër Irrfan Khan (Slumdog Millionaire, Life of Pi, The Lunchbox) en de Deense Sidse Babett Knudsen (Borgen). De Engelse Felicity Jones (genomineerd voor een Oscar voor Theory of Everything) vertolkt de rol van Dr Sienna Brooks.
De film wordt geregisseerd door Ron Howard, geproduceerd door de regisseur samen met Brian Grazer, en geschreven door David Koepp naar een boek van Dan Brown.
De film Angels & Demons (2009) en Da Vinci Code (2006), die eveneens werden gebaseerd op een boek van Dan Brown, brachten wereldwijd meer dan 1,2 miljard dollar op.
De draaiperiode van INFERNO vangt aan eind april en de release in België is voorzien op 12 oktober 2016.
Now at the movies : FOXCATCHER
Director:Bennett Miller
Stars:Steve Carell, Channing Tatum, Mark Ruffalo
Based on true events, Foxcatcher tells the dark and fascinating story of the unlikely and ultimately tragic relationship between an eccentric multi-millionaire and two champion wrestlers. When Olympic Gold Medal winning wrestler Mark Schultz (Channing Tatum) is invited by wealthy heir John du Pont (Steve Carell) to move on to the du Pont estate and help form a team to train for the 1988 Seoul Olympics at his new state-of-the-art training facility, Schultz jumps at the opportunity, hoping to focus on his training and finally step out of the shadow of his revered brother, Dave (Mark Ruffalo). Driven by hidden needs, du Pont sees backing Schultz's bid for Gold and the chance to "coach" a world-class wrestling team as an opportunity to gain the elusive respect of his peers and, more importantly, his disapproving mother (Vanessa Redgrave). Flattered by the attention and entranced by du Pont's majestic world, Mark comes to see his benefactor as a father figure and grows increasingly...
