Berlin Review: Machine Gun Kelly In Tim Sutton’s ‘Taurus’
13.02.2022 - 21:59 / deadline.com
Rapper Machine Gun Kelly plays a self-destructive musician in Tim Sutton’s Taurus, premiering in the Panorama section of the Berlin Film Festival. Going by his real name, Colson Baker, he puts in an authentic turn as his character Cole flits between the studio, his expensive apartment and an array of seedy bars and strip clubs.

The love-hate relationship between this bickering pair is a darkly funny and touching one that, like many scenes, offers an insight into the lives of the rich and famous. Another key scene sees a pizza delivery guy asking for a selfie in the studio. Cole’s reaction drives a
