Good Ol’ Freda

Good Ol’ Freda tells the – until now – untold story of the Beatles’ secretary Freda Kelly. She’s been with the band from the beginning right up until the end and as such she was the envy of thousands of girls, running the Fab Four’s fan club and working for Brian Epstein, the band’s manager.

Venus In Fur

Roman Polanski’s latest movie is a two-character play set almost entirely in a Parisian theater. A soaked through actress (Emmanuelle Seigner) bursts into a theatre, late for an audition. The director (Mathieu Amalric looking like a young Polanksi) first wants to send her away but then gets sucked/suckered into auditioning the leather-clad Vanda (Emmanuelle Seigner) for the lead female role. They then get drawn into an elaborate role-playing game that blurs the lines between fiction and reality.
