On GMB Kate told her ITV colleagues Susanna Reid and Ed Balls: “The idea came from him at the beginning of 2023 and he suddenly said, as words would come in fits and starts, 'are we making another documentary?” Kate continued: “I said I hadn't thought to do that Derek but he said 'I think we should'.

Drive-Away Dolls, was unable to be released under its original moniker: “Drive-Away Dykes.”“It was something just for commercial reasons,” adds Tricia Cooke, who co-wrote the film with Coen and edited the finished product. “There are movie theaters that won’t release the movie with that title and the MPA [Motion Picture Association] kind of dictates what your title can be.

After cleaning house during awards season, major awards taken at SAG, The Indie Spirit Awards, the Golden Globes, the Emmys, and the PGAs, the Netflix series, “Beef,” once seen as a limited series, is coming back for season two, but more as an anthology series it sounds like.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter Paramount’s musical biopic “Bob Marley: One Love” ruled again over a barren box office landscape.

Pat Saperstein Deputy Editor SPOILER ALERT: This article continues spoilers for the film “Drive-Away Dolls.” In Ethan Coen‘s “Drive-Away Dolls,” an homage to the colorful, brash world of exploitation cinema, there’s a notable cameo from none other than Miley Cyrus.

Pedro Pascal or Matt Damon turn, you won’t find it in “Drive-Away Dolls.” Qualley is the closest here to a standout. Her energetic personality pops, even if her over-the-top character is something out of “SpongeBob: After Dark.” Viswanathan, on the other hand, has been giving the same side-eye, dry, “I’d rather not” performance since 2018’s “Blockers.” Her consistency has begun to feel rote and clinical.The arc of Marian and Jamie’s companionship is as predictable as Old Faithful, and the warm conclusion unearned.“Dolls” is, of course, meant to be lighter than air.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter Despite two new releases, Paramount’s Bob Marley biographical drama “One Love” is projected to top the box office again. This weekend’s newcomers, Hilary Swank’s inspirational drama “Ordinary Angels” and director Ethan Coen’s comedic thriller “Drive-Away Dolls,” are targeting single digits in their debuts. With those paltry ticket sales, “Bob Marley: One Love” looks to repeat No.

Director Ethan Coen – collaborating with wife Tricia Cooke instead of brother Joel – delivers a disposable but not entirely unentertaining lesbian-centered crime caper comedy in Drive-Away Dolls. With its raunchy sex and vivid violence, the film is more an affectionate tribute to hard R drive-in B movies that more resembles something from the mind of Russ Meyer than anything resembling smart, Oscar-y movies like the Coen Brothers’ No Country For Old Men, Big Lebowski, Barton Fink, Fargo, Blood Simple etc.

Beanie Feldstein, Margaret Qualley, and Geraldine Viswanathan are stepping out for the premiere of their new movie!

The hitman has proven a consistent source of inspiration for movies, from 1942’s “This Gun For Hire” to 1967’s “Le Samourai” to the recent “Hitman.” With so many movies centered around a hitman, it’s hard not to feel derivative.
