Just as Marion Cotillard was to La Vie en Rose, Golden Globe-nominated actor Tahar Rahim is to MONSIEUR AZNAVOUR, transforming into the iconic singer-songwriter for this hugely entertaining rise-to-stardom biography of the man who beat all odds to not only become one of France’s best-loved entertainers, but personified French culture to the English-speaking world. Born in Paris in 1924 as the son of Armenian refugees, Charles Aznavour’s formative years are spent in poverty, but distinguished by his parents’ passion for music and theatre. Ridiculed for his short stature and raspy tenor voice - traits he would in time fully embrace - Aznavour’s early attempts at a showbiz career during the Occupation falter. Whilst a gifted lyricist and storyteller, his material finds more success in the hands of others, including his friend Pierre (Bastien Bouillon), and later the imperious Edith Piaf (a scene-stealing Marie-Julie Baup), who becomes a highly influential mentor and supporter. But by the 1950s, Aznavour finally realises his own ambitions; his empathetic ‘chansons’ about the heartbreaks, confusions and passions of the common man (mining the dramas of his own life) catapult him to global attention. Led by its star’s astonishing performance and stunning vocal prowess, Mehdi Idir and Grand Corps Malade’s emotional and lavishly-mounted MONSIEUR AZNAVOUR is a true tour de force as intimate as it is spectacular, serving as a triumphant reminder of the power and impact of music. It’s a grand and unmissable cinema experience.

A visceral, boots-on-the-ground story of modern warfare and brotherhood, told like never before: in real time and based on the memory of the people who lived it. From A24 films & written and directed by Iraq War veteran Ray Mendoza and Alex Garland (Civil War, 28 Days Later), arriving one year after 2024’s Civil War, comes an immersive and electrifying new take on the war movie. Created from the memories of real-life Navy SEALs, including Mendoza himself, the film recounts a dangerous surveillance mission gone wrong in Ramadi, Iraq, in 2006. Featuring an ensemble cast of Hollywood’s most exciting up-and-coming talent, including Charles Melton, Will Poulter, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Cosmo Jarvis, Joseph Quinn, and Kit Connor, Warfare takes place in real time, using extended takes, meticulously constructed sets, and unmatched realism to capture the fog and chaos of war, and the indelible brotherhood that develops in its wake. Co-director Mendoza, a combat veteran who worked with Garland to design the battle sequences in Civil War enlightens, “We made this film as a reminder to the people who make the decisions to go to war that there are people that will answer that call so that others don’t have to — and usually it’s the youth of America.” “Warfare breaks with convention and dispenses with romanticization in its depiction of war and what it feels like to be under fire,” says Will Poulter, who plays an Officer in Charge of the operation. “Playing out like a transcript from found footage, the movie gives people a more authentic understanding of being in a combat environment under intense pressure.” Breaking the formula of conventional war movies, Warfare pulls no punches in its frank and visceral depiction of young men under fire. “Reality doesn’t let people off the hook; when things are tough, there isn’t a dissolve or a cut or some music to cheer you up,” says Garland of his approach to making the movie. “You remain in that state until circumstances relieve you from pressure or the moment, and that’s what Warfare does — it adheres to reality, not the reassurances of cinema.”

Based on the riveting true story of Australian war correspondent Peter Greste’s shocking imprisonment in Egypt in 2013, THE CORRESPONDENT is a gripping biographical thriller about the relentless defence of the truth and triumph of the human spirit. Helmed by Red Dog director Kriv Stenders, the incredible story stars Richard Roxburgh (Rake, Moulin Rouge!) in a commanding career best performance. While covering the news desk in Cairo for a colleague over the Christmas holidays, Australian journalist Peter Greste (Roxburgh) is arrested and accused of terrorism.

Now the subject of his own worldwide news story, with only his wits and unlikely allies keeping him alive, Greste’s very survival means staring down a brutal regime. Opening the 2024 Adelaide Film Festival, THE CORRESPONDENT is a chilling exploration of the risks journalists face in the pursuit of truth and the fragility of press freedom in the face of authoritarian power. While maintaining a palpable overarching sense of dread, screenwriter Peter Duncan’s use of absurdist humour works effectively to bring out the stark ridiculousness of the horrific ordeal, allowing for some light to cut through the bleakness of the visually striking yet emotionally heavy narrative. An ultimately tightly drawn portrait of one man’s determination to speak truth to power, THE CORRESPONDENT raises the question, “How much is a headline worth?”, while delivering a poignant reminder of the extraordinary courage it takes to stand up to authoritarian regimes.
