Annette UK Trailer
The UK trailer for Leos Carax’s epic musical Annette just dropped from Mubi, with the film headed to cinemas in the UK and Ireland on 3 September 2021 and available exclusively on MUBI from 26th November 2021.
The much-lauded filmmaker Leos Carax (check out his darkly intriguing Holy Motors) brings new audiences ANNETTE, which sees him working with Sparks, one of pop’s best-loved and most influential cult bands, to tell an audacious story of the pitfalls of love, fame and fortune.
The always impressive Adam Driver (House of Gucci, Marriage Story, Paterson) and Oscar®-winner Marion Cotillard (Inception, La Vie en Rose, Macbeth,) star as a provocative stand-up comedian and internationally renowned opera singer living in contemporary Los Angeles: a seemingly perfect couple constantly in the good graces of the media spotlight. However, when they welcome their daughter Annette into the world, they soon learn that her mysterious and ethereal gifts will change their lives forever.
Featuring phenomenal performances from its two leads, Carax’s latest is an unabashedly unique and unforgettable spectacle, soundtracked by Sparks’ typically idiosyncratic music and lyrics. Co-starring Simon Helberg (Florence Foster Jenkins, The Big Bang Theory), it received a spectacular reception at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival, where it premiered as the Opening Film and won the coveted Best Director Award.
ANNETTE WILL BE RELEASED BY MUBI IN CINEMAS IN THE UK AND IRELAND
ON 3 SEPTEMBER 2021 AND WILL BE AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY ON MUBI IN THE UK, IRELAND, INDIA AND LATAM FROM 26 NOVEMBER
Power Ballad
What has us incredibly excited about Power Ballad is the dynamic friction between its two leads. Paul Rudd seems perfectly cast as the rugged, everyday musician who just wanted a shot at the big time, acknowledging with a heavy heart that having his name on a song of that magnitude would have completely changed his life.
Dune: Part Three
Picking up roughly seventeen years after the seismic events of Part Two, the trailer immediately signals a shift in tone. While the first film was an act of world-building and the second a visceral war epic, Dune: Part Three—an adaptation of Frank Herbert’s Dune Messiah—looks to be a far more claustrophobic and tense affair.
