Charlotte Wells’ directorial feature debut, “Aftersun,” took home the most awards of any nominated film at the 25th annual British Independent Film Awards (BIFA), nabbing seven victories out of 16 nominations.
The film spans a 20-year period, beginning with 11-year-old Sophie (Frankie Corio) on a father-daughter vacation to Turkey and culminating with her reflection on that experience in adulthood. Upon its premiere at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, “Aftersun” was winner of the French Touch Jury Prize. Most recently, Wells received a breakthrough director prize at the Gotham Awards.
At the Sunday evening ceremony, “Normal People” actor Daisy Edgar-Jones presented the award for best British independent film to Wells. Also added to the feature’s list of accolades were awards for best director, best debut director, best screenplay, best cinematography, best editing and best music supervision.

Scottish filmmaker Charlotte Wells’s debut feature Aftersun leads the nominations for this year’s British Independent Film Awards with a sweeping 16 nods, including Best Director and Best film.
The film’s impressive nominations haul includes Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Debut Director (the Douglas Hickox Award) and Best Debut Screenwriter nods for Wells and a Best Joint Lead Performance nomination for stars Paul Mescal and newcomer Frankie Corio, who received a Breakthrough Performance nomination. The Barry Jenkins-produced pic is also up for Best British Independent Film and racked up a further nine craft nominations, including Best Casting and Cinematography.
Inspired by, but not based on, Wells’s experiences as the child of young parents, the poignant ’90s-set film explores a father and daughter’s complex relationship against the backdrop of a simmering holiday the pair have taken to a resort in Turkey.
Georgia Oakley’s debut film Blue Jean trails behind with 13 nominations.

The horror-themed streaming service Shudder will be celebrating Halloween for 61 days straight this year, beginning on September 1st – and they have announced that their line-up, which they say makes them “The Home for Halloween” will include 11 new films and original series, plus a new Joe Bob Briggs special (possibly one that involves a guest appearance by Elvira), and other special treats that have yet to be announced.
Shudder’s Craig Engler had this to say:
Halloween is the best time of year on Shudder, and this Halloween, we’re featuring the best lineup of programming in our history. We have 11 original and exclusive movie premieres, including a new film from horror master Dario Argento, a Halloween special from superstar host Joe Bob Briggs, and three new series — from Bryan Fuller, The Boulet Brothers, and the producers of Eli Roth’s History of Horror.”

The black comedy film Flux Gourmet hit theaters on June 24, 2022. It is written and directed by British film director and screenwriter Peter Strickland. In an interview with Vulture, Peter Strickland described his cinematic fixations as “Tragedy, sonic psychosis, bondage, retail nightmares, and stomach problems,” which are themes covered in Flux Gourmet. The film stars Asa Butterfield, Gwendoline Christie, Ariane Labed, Fatma Mohamed, Makis Papadimitriou, Leo Bill, and Richard Bremmer. Flux Gourmet is a satire of the contemporary art world that explores the intersection of food, fetishism, and power. In a review by The Wrap, they gave particular praise

At The Sonic Catering Institute, art collectives working with food and sound are given three-week residencies that, in the words of its monied, micromanaging patron Jan Stevens (Gwendoline Christie), involve “the artistic pursuit of alimentary and culinary salvation to be done as public performance.”
This is the pleasurably esoteric, densely atmospheric world of Peter Strickland’s latest venture into psychological-distress-as-ice-cold-comedy, “Flux Gourmet,” and it is by turns scatological, hilarious, art-referential and, ultimately, moving.
For the cleverly-named group leader Elle di Elle (Fatma Mohamed) and her collaborators Billy Rubin (Asa Butterfield) and Lamina Propria (Ariane Labed), all of whom rise, walk and smoke in sync — at first, anyway, before the friction and infighting begins — the prospect of freedom to create their specialized brand of performance is a dream come true. Together they pantomime the process of grocery shopping, attach microphones, effects-generating equipment and amps to their prep stations, then chop and...

Peter Strickland has become the provocateur du jour for those into obscure cinema, and Flux Gourmet continues cementing his legacy. Where Berberian Sound Studio and In Fabric are gonzo commentaries on genre, Flux Gourmet is almost a self-parody about the fragile bond between artistic freedom, anxious backers, and receptive audiences. By acknowledging absurdism as a marketable commodity, Strickland falls into a performative rabbit hole that blends Velvet Buzzsaw, Wes Anderson, and Art School Confidential. It's fearless, flummoxing, and filled with inexplicable expressionism that will appeal to renegade creators who only trust themselves, not someone else's process. There's no spoon-feeding from Strickland — at least not narratively.
A plethora of auditory weirdness transpires within the walls of Jan Stevens' (Gwendoline Christie) premier institute.

"Cooking and performing is a hazard." IFC Midnght has unveiled the main trailer for Flux Gourmet, a wacky indie horror dark comedy about a "food collective", made by the director of Berberian Sound Studio - Peter Strickland. This premiered at the Berlin Film Festival earlier this year to rather mixed reviews - you'll see why from this trailer. Set at an institute devoted to culinary + alimentary performance, an art collective finds themselves embroiled in power struggles, artistic vendettas and gastrointestinal disorders. It stars Asa Butterfield, Gwendoline Christie, Ariane Labed, Fatma Mohamed, Makis Papadimitriou, Leo Bill, Richard Bremmer. I appreciate the PR description for this one that calls it an "Intoxicating Gonzo Delicacy" - ha! That actually gets my attention. But the rest of this looks so dumb. Just not my cup of tea at all, it's literal artsy-fartsy cinema slop. However, if you like Strickland's films - you do not want to miss this.

“Berberian Sound Studio” and “The Duke of Burgundy” madman Peter Strickland returns with “Flux Gourmet,” another twisted ode to class horror, this time trading in giallo for gastronomy with the story of a collective of gourmands and the internal power struggles that unfold within their midst. Asa Butterfield and “Duke of Burgundy” star Gwendoline Christie lead a cast that also includes Ariane Labed, Fatma Mohamed, Makis Papadimitriou, Leo Bill, and Richard Bremmer. IndieWire exclusively shares the official trailer for the film below.
The sonic collective at the film’s center takes up residency at an institute devoted to culinary perfection, its members going to war with the institute’s head over creative differences. In this universe, music is made with food and youngsters dream of culinary ambitions rather than becoming pop stars.

Say what you will about British horror director Peter Strickland, but his films are anything but dull. He broke out with 2005’s “Berberian Sound Studio,” a twisted tribute to 1970s Italian horror that established him as one of the genre’s most unique voices. Recent films “The Duke of Burgundy” and “In Fabric” continued to show off his distinctive visual style and unapologetic embrace of weirdness. His fans have nothing to worry about with latest film “Flux Gourmet,” which debuts at the Berlin Film Festival this week and appears to be firmly within his wheelhouse.
As “Berberian Sound Studio” focused on people who make horror movies, “Flux Gourmet” follows a collective of gourmands and the internal power struggles that unfold within the organization. Asa Butterfield and Gwendoline Christie lead the cast, which also features Ariane Labed, Fatma Mohamed, Makis Papadimitriou, Leo Bill, and Richard Bremmer.

Rowling did co-write The Cursed Child stage play, which extends the story of the Boy (now Man) Who Lived. Ralph Fiennes, star of the original movies, doesn’t think any more are likely to happen, but if they do, he has one message to other actors: hands off Lord Voldemort.
ComicBook.com caught up with Fiennes at New York Comic-Con and asked him about the possibility of more Potter on the big screen. As part of his answer, the British star made clear that he wants to be the one to get the call to come back and play Harry’s nose-less nemesis.
“I will be very possessive about Voldemort, though. I don’t want anyone else playing Voldemort.”
It’s funny that...

Ralph Fiennes is one of the most critically acclaimed actors in Hollywood today, with his early films like Schindler’s List establishing him as one of the industry’s brightest talents. But it was his take on the terrifying Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter franchise that garnered him a global following.
It seems that the decision to play He Who Must Not Be Named in an eight film-franchise with a worldwide fanbase wasn’t as easy as you would think. In a recent interview while on The Jonathan Ross Show, Fiennes revealed that he had been initially hesitant to take on the iconic role, owing to the fact that he was completely ignorant about the books and the film universe they’d spawned.
“The truth is I was actually ignorant about the films and the books. I was approached by the production. Mike Newell was directing the film that...

Mike Leigh has been nominated for seven Oscars and returns to Cannes this month with the biographical film "Mr. Turner," which chronicles the last quarter-century in the life of the famed 19th century painter J.M.W. Turner. Equally reviled and adored, Turner was the sort of electric historical figure that the industry has been gravitating towards, especially as many Americans are fully initiated Anglophiles. Writer-director Leigh, most recently having global success with "Another Year," made the film to showcase the polarizing aspects of the eccentric painter, played by Timothy Spall. The challenge of creating a film about an artist is that the product must do justice to the subject. In this clip, it is clear that Leigh had enough ambition in making "Mr. Turner" to match the artist's work. It showcases this ambition through extremely long takes and densely filled period sets. The cast also includes Richard Bremmer and...
