Marty Supreme successfully sparked a crossover trend in sports, fashion and film by blending sports with vintage aesthetics. Not only did star Timothée Chalamet received a slew of award nominations for his performance, his new label as his generation’s hottest trendsetter has blurred the line between cinema and fashion. Want to see what this crossover is all about on the big screen? Just before the climax of the award season in March, MOViE MOViE hosted Countdown to the Awards, giving cinephiles sneak previews of award season favorites like Marty Supreme and The Secret Agent on the big screen. Three of the films will be landing on the MOViE MOViE channel very soon.
The word “love” has always been easy to decipher yet hard to comprehend. It can be complex, yet so simple at the same time. Some people discover themselves in relationships, while others see partners as the missing piece of the puzzle that is life. The truth is, everyone has a different interpretation of love. For May, MOViE MOViE’s Home Premieres features a selection of films about love and relationships. This issue, we have invited The Chronicles of Libidoists star Will Or to share his intimate and unique connection with film, and we speak to the stars and director of We’re Nothing at All. By showcasing the different facets and perspectives of love, we want everyone to savor love in all its forms.
In 1977, Brazil’s political regime was corrupt, governance lay in ruins, and evil flourished. Marcelo is a university professor who dares to fight against the system, only to find himself hunted by assassins. During Carnival week, he flees to Recife, hoping to reunite with his family under a new identity. While Marcelo works in the state identification archives, searching for his mother’s record, the fatal threat draws ever closer. Each day, the Carnival death toll rises. Children are obsessed with Jaws, yet the great white shark caught in real life contains a human leg; corpses lie unattended on the roadside; a maid pleading for justice for her daughter is silenced. In the world of absurdity and madness, can Marcelo escape and survive?

銀幕。電影呈現了史上最具影響力的藝術家之一 Michael Jackson 的生平與傳奇。由《波希米亞狂 想曲:搖滾傳說》金像監製 Gramham King、《邊
緣特訓》賣座導演安東尼奎克(Antoine Fuqua) 領軍,米高積遜侄兒賈法爾積遜(Jaafar Jackson) 首當男主角,將這人物的傳奇起點,至成為國際巨 星的經歷,徹徹底底地展現出來。 《米高積遜》聚焦他的音樂成就,更深入描寫 他舞台之外的人生軌跡: 從幼年被發掘成為 Jackson Five 主唱,到成為全球最偉大娛樂巨星 的過程,展露了他無與倫比的創作熱情,與對完美 的執著追求。他早期獨唱事業中的多個經典表演 及重要時刻,亦會於電影中復刻眼前,讓觀眾彷彿 親臨現場,以全新視角走進這位傳奇人物的內心 世界。
Michael is the cinematic portrayal of the life and legacy of one of the most influential artists the world has ever known.
The film tells the story of Michael Jackson’s life beyond the music, tracing his journey from the discovery of his extraordinary talent as the lead of the Jackson Five, to the visionary artist whose creative ambition fueled a relentless pursuit to become the biggest entertainer in the world.
Highlighting both his life off-stage and some of the most iconic performances from his early solo career, the film gives audiences a front-row seat to Michael Jackson as never before. This is where his story begins.
Longing for more after his Elvis epic biopic starring Austin Butler, Luhrmann follows up with EPiC, an electric and revealing concert documentary. Recovering 60-plus boxes of never-before-seen concert archives from Warner Bros’ storage, the director showcases his kaleidoscopic visual kinks and aggressive editing styles, seamlessly stitching together performances from several concerts from different eras to offer a panoramic view of his life and career. A mesmerising picture showing the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s hypnotic stage presence and generous personality all at once, it is a fitting tribute to applaud the showmanship of Elvis — and Luhrmann too.

Panning over a century, girls from four different eras spend their youth in the same farmstead in German. Unknown to one another, yet the myths of each generation linger in the air, stirring up deep wounds from the past generations.
The melancholy and solitude of growth, the threat and seduction of death, the unsettling fury of violence lurking around, gently cross the early 20th century, curse the years of World War II, linger through the days of East Germany, and continue to echo its way to the present. Haunting, mystical cinematography ripples and glides like flowing water. Memories are delicately interwoven, awakening long lost emotions. German up and coming female director Marsha Szelinski breaks the linearity of memory and time with an ethereal narrative style, piecing together a century of Germany’s lost history. Winner of Cannes Jury Prize.
The 205th class of police academy students continues to face the ruthless tests from the devilish instructor Kimichika Kazama. As the students’ hidden secrets are gradually revealed by Kazama, some choose to drop out. Meanwhile, various incidents continue to unfold within the academy, including the love triangle involving Manabe, Asaki, and Momoha, Hatsusawa’s attempts to protect her sister’s safety, and the suspicious behaviour of Ujihara. At the same time, graduates from Kazama’s class are investigating the whereabouts of the kidnapped sister, Sara Tokizaki, discovering that someone is plotting to commit a crime during the police academy graduation ceremony…
The character Marty needs to maintain a high level of tension and anxiety throughout. What was the biggest challenge for you, and how did you prepare?
The hardest thing with Marty is maintaining a sustained sense of tenacity and anxiety. The whole film requires this urgency, and you can’t let up for a moment. When acting opposite different characters, I had to keep Marty’s nature intact while allowing subtle shifts in response to each person. The director had a very precise handle on this tone. It’s about sustaining a specific atmosphere. Even in intimate scenes, you can approach them in a whispered way while preserving the underlying tension.
The protagonist exists on a morally ambiguous line — not a traditional “good guy” or “bad guy”. Is that kind of role liberating?
Yes. I don’t really subscribe to using the term “antihero”. For me, Marty is more like a character with an ambiguous moral compass, like people in real life. Human beings have strengths and weaknesses; they can be generous and they can be selfish. This kind of setup doesn’t come with pre-assigned labels of good and evil, which actually gives me more freedom to explore the complexity of human nature.
How did you prepare for the brilliantly executed table tennis scenes?
I trained in table tennis for six years with Diego Schaaf and Wei Wang. For me, sports sequences aren’t just about showing off skills — they drive and support the storyline, like how songs represent a character’s emotional progression in a musical. In Marty Supreme, ping pong is the character’s “song”. That said, this isn’t purely a sports film. It’s more like a story about heists, love, ambition, dreams, and the disillusionment of the American dream.
How do you see this film connecting to our present moment? And do you think this style of filmmaking can still appeal to a new generation of audiences?
I think whether this film connects to the present is something for audiences to feel for themselves. For me, this is exactly the kind of original filmmaking we should keep making. Even if audiences end up not liking it, they might still say, “Yes, this is the kind of film that deserves to be made.” And that’s the message we want to convey.

“You might think this would be very restricting, but actually it gives you a chance to concentrate on pure cinema — on framing, composition, and the movement of the camera.” — Alfred Hitchcock
這個希治閣自我束縛而來的框架,或許為他提供了執導多年 以來,最貼近電影本質的試煉;而對觀眾而言,《後窗》除了是 pure cinema,更是史無前例的一趟 cinematic experience。
除了讓自己倒下

The Politics of Art
At a time when global politics is at the tip of everyone’s tongues, it was unlikely that the Berlin International Film Festival — one of the top three film festivals in the world — would escape unscathed. When asked about the festival’s silence on the war in Gaza at a press conference, jury president Wim Wenders said, “We have to stay out of politics because if we make movies that are dedicatedly political, we enter the field of politics. But we are the counterweight of politics, we are the opposite of politics.”
Whether Wenders meant that films should avoid politics or something more akin to Godard’s idea of “making films politically,” the statement prompted outrage from filmmakers and netizens. Some reporters pressed festival guests to voice their political stances at press conferences, turning every answer or non-answer into news clips or ragebait. Politics (or the insistence on avoiding it) overshadowed the films in the public sphere.
Ironically, the Berlinale jury ended up awarding the Golden Bear to Yellow Letters, a searingly political drama about a Turkish artist couple whose lives unravel when authoritarianism creeps into their lives. Whatever the intention of the jury, their choice ought to say more than a thousand press conference soundbites.
Nevertheless, cinephiles who could ignore the noise were treated to ten days of empathetic art about gender, grief, religion, greed, family, and yes, even politics. Actress Sandra Hüller won her second Silver Bear for competition film Rose, in which she plays a swindler who disguises as a male soldier to inherit a farmstead in a rural village. Director Anthony Chen made history as the first Singaporean filmmaker to enter the Berlinale competition with We Are All Strangers, an Edward Yang-esque family drama that completes his “Growing Up” trilogy following Ilo Ilo and Wet Season Queen At Sea, starring Juliette Binoche as a woman who moves home to care for her aging mother, was also widely praised.
Outside the competition, Muriel d’Ansembourg’s Truly Naked sparked debates about porn addiction and intimacy with its unflinching depiction of a young man’s comingof-age in the porn industry; Korean auteur and frequent Berlinale visitor Hong Sangsoo once again depicts the angst of a filmmaker with the experimental The Day She Returns; and Palestinian-Syrian filmmaker Abdallah Al-Khatib showed the brutal reality of life in a war zone with his Best First Feature Award winner Chronicles from the Siege
Even as the political debates raged on, the festival still had its share of glitz and glamour. Actress Michelle Yeoh took the spotlight as the recipient of the Honorary Golden Bear and presented the world premiere of Sandiwara, her new short film by Oscar-winning director Sean Baker (Anora).
