Edinburgh Festival Interviews: Andrea Walker

All eyes continue to be on the British royal family following Queen Elizabeth II’s death — and new dress code details are raising eyebrows.

On Thursday evening it was reported that Queen Elizabeth II had sadly passed away at the age of 96. The last thoughts on many people's minds at that time would have been where her darling dogs would be rehomed. However, three days on, it has been confirmed that Prince Andrew, the Queen's third child, and his daughter Princess Beatrice are to take care of at least two corgis.

Queen Elizabeth‘s family is all rushing to Balmoral Castle.

Forget Seberg, forget Mank, forget Judy — Andrew Dominik’s Venice Film Festival competition entry Blonde takes a blowtorch to the entire concept of the Hollywood biopic and arrives at something almost without precedent.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic A good biopic invites the audience to experience, from the inside out, who the subject really was. That’s the level that “Blonde,” Andrew Dominik’s film about Marilyn Monroe, operates on for most of its 2 hours and 46 minutes. Based on Joyce Carol Oates’ 2000 novel, the movie is a hushed and floating psychodramatic Klieg-light fantasia, shot in color and black-and-white, that presents a fusion of reality and fiction. But most of it is torn from reality. In “Blonde,” we glimpse Monroe’s cataclysmic childhood, watch her shoot key scenes from her movies or stare up at them from the audience of a Hollywood premiere (where the red-carpet flashbulbs sound like guns), see her turn the incandescent Marilyn wiggle and pizzazz on and off, see her caught in a maelstrom of drugs, gossip, self-hate, and unfair studio contracts, and watch her melt into the glow of pregnancy only to lose one baby after the next. Mostly, we eavesdrop on her relationships with men (Joe DiMaggio, Arthur Miller, JFK) who become, for Marilyn, a dysfunctional daisy chain of honeymoon-turned-nightmares.

The loyal daughters of Prince Andrew, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are said to have begged Prince Charles to give their dad a job. Andrew, 62, who was left shell-shocked when the Queen stripped him of military titles and HRH use at the beginning of the year, has had his case for a job fought by his daughters Beatrice, 34, and Eugenie, 32. The Sun reports that the Prince of Wales, 73, held a summit with the princesses at his home on the Birkhall Estate in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
