In creating the titular object in “The House,” Paloma Baeza knew it had to be recognizable in each story while also being aesthetically different from the piece in the film’s other two vignettes. The challenge for the production designer was “to come up with some recognizable features that we could bend and stretch depending on what the story needed. Each narrative needed something slightly different,” she tells Gold Derby during our recent webchat (watch the exclusive video interview above). Production designer Alex Walker had meetings with each segment’s director individually and all together to discuss distinctive features that were selected for each segment’s version of the house. “You definitely feel, even though they look very different in terms of the aesthetics… through that entry hallway is absolutely the same house, even though they’re different scales.”

Cannes -- Andrew Hulme is not a name that many film fans know, but you've more than likely seen his work. As an editor, he's worked on "The American," "Red Riding: 1974," 'Control," "Gangster No. 1," and "Lucky Number Slevin," among others, and he's also served as a second unit director on a few films. His directorial debut, "Snow In Paradise," made its appearance at Cannes today in the same timeslot that Ryan Gosling's "Lost River" played yesterday. It bummed me out to see that there were maybe a third as many people waiting to get into this one, and that was before I saw the movie. Afterwards, I'm doubly sorry, because it's a self-assured and sincere piece of work. Based loosely on the true life story of Martin Askew, this movie feels like a direct refutation of the romanticized myth of London's criminal underworld. How many films have you...

Hugh Hudson is perhaps best known as the director of the critically acclaimed 1981 film Chariots of Fire. Philip French's reassessment of his 1985 film Revolution prompted Hudson to include his review in a booklet accompanying its DVD release in 2008. French stated: "Revolution was misunderstood and unjustly treated on its first appearance 20 years ago. Seeing it again in the director's slightly revised version, it now strikes me as a masterpiece – profound, poetic and original."
The thing about Philip is that he is a very truthful, very fair journalist who considers carefully what he writes, unlike many film critics who are inclined to be very hurried in their assessment, often acting like lobbyists. He never had his pet hates or favourites. I'll never forget Ken Russell on TV whacking Evening Standard critic Alex Walker on the head with his own rolled-up paper, for calling his film The Devils "monstrously indecent"!

With the entire original run of The Twilight Zone available to watch instantly, we’re partnering with Twitch Film to cover all of the show’s 156 episodes. Are you brave enough to watch them all with us? The Twilight Zone (Episode #99): “Young Man’s Fancy” (airdate 5/11/62) The Plot: A newly-minted husband brings his wife to his childhood home to make plans to sell it, but a powerful force is drawing him back to his late mother and the house she kept exactly as it was when he was in short pants. The Goods: This very well may be the second cruelest episode. Aside from the wicked heartlessness of Time Enough At Last, it rings out with a kind of empty meanness that doesn’t teach a lesson while it tortures an innocent bystander at her weakest point. Sometimes life can be that way, and Virginia Walker (Phyllis Thaxter) learns that the raw way. Virginia...

It's been more than 25 years since Billy (Silver Dollar) Baxter last graced the Cannes Film Festival, and yet as I pack for this year's event, I am thinking about him even now, and I am smiling. Billy single-handedly created an alternate reality at Cannes, and such was the force of his personality that those who came within earshot were seduced. In the words of Elaine May, he carried on a way of life that was extinct before he was born.
Billy was a loudmouth operator from the pages of Damon Runyon, whose gift was creating scenarios to entertain us. He didn't want our money, he didn't want publicity, he didn't want a free lunch, he only wanted our laughter, and to know that we would pass around the latest "Billy Baxter story." We are still passing them around. Billy is still very much alive, and we are in touch; he lives not far from Broadway,...
