Film lovers spent this past weekend mourning the passing of Maggie Smith, one of the most iconic British actresses of her generation. There’s no better way to honor her legacy than to watch some of her best films and TV shows, and these five are a good place to start.

The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie

Smith became an Oscar winner during the late 60s when she received acclaim for the role of a free-spirited teacher trying to make a mark at a Scottish all-girls school in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.

California Suite

Smith received several Oscar nominations for her supporting roles, but she finally managed to win this award for the star-studded ensemble comedy California Suite about a group of quirky characters staying at a luxury hotel.

Harry Potter

Most people nowadays know Smith as the star of the Harry Potter franchise, and she spent the full decade making the magic happen as our favorite Hogwarts professor Minerva McGonagall.

Sister Act

Smith starred in many box office hits during the 21st century, but she set the stage for this part of her career during the 90s when she led the cult comedy Sister Act alongside Whoopi Goldberg.

Downton Abbey

When Harry Potter wrapped up in the early 2010s, Smith was already off to the next big thing – her three-time Emmy-winning role as Dowager Countess in the hit period drama Downton Abbey.

The Cannes Film Festival is a cultural institution with a rich history that has profoundly influenced the film industry. From its origins in the mid-20th century to its current status as a global cinematic powerhouse, Cannes has always been synonymous with cinematic excellence. Let’s take a look at why and how the Cannes Film Festival is such a big deal.

The Cannes Film Festival was conceived in the late 1930s. French Minister of National Education proposed the creation of an international film festival in France. The goal was to celebrate artistic freedom and cultural diversity. The suggestion for this new festival was a response to political interference in the Venice Film Festival. At that time, it was then dominated by fascist governments. And so, the inaugural Cannes Festival took place on September 20, 1946, showcasing films from 19 countries.

Cannes quickly became a magnet for the world’s most glamorous and talented stars, adding to its allure and mystique. Legendary moments include the debut of Federico Fellini’s “La Dolce Vita” in 1960, which won the Palme d’Or and redefined modern cinema with its groundbreaking style and narrative. In 1976, Martin Scorsese’s “Taxi Driver” caused a stir with its controversial content. It ultimately won the Palme d’Or, solidifying Cannes’ reputation for celebrating daring and provocative films.

Knives Out franchise is a gift that keeps on giving, and Rian Johnson is getting ready to deliver another epic murder mystery. Netflix officially announced the third installment, titled Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, and here’s everything we know about it right now.

Plot Details

Plot details are being kept under wraps, but Knives Out films usually follow a similar formula. Daniel Craig will be back as the world-famous detective Benoit Blanc, and we’ll probably watch him solve another murder mystery involving a group of quirky characters.

Ensemble Cast

Another thing that all Knives Out films have in common is their star-studded cast. Daniel Craig will once again lead the ensemble, and he’ll be joined by Cailee Spaeny (Priscilla), Josh O’Connor (Challengers), Andrew Scott (All of Us Strangers), Kerry Washington (Scandal), Mila Kunis (Bad Moms), Jeremy Renner (Avengers franchise), Daryl McCormack (Good Luck to You, Leo Grande), and Glenn Close (Dangerous Liaisons).

Release Date

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery still doesn’t have an official release date, but we know it’s coming to Netflix in 2025. It will most likely be given a short theatrical release window before streaming online, just like its predecessor Glass Onion. Production will kick off later this month in London.

Think you’ve seen every movie worth seeing? In the vast ocean of cinema, some gems don’t receive the recognition they deserve. Here are three underrated films you need to watch that will leave a lasting impression.

The Fall (2006)

Directed by Tarsem Singh, The Fall is a visually stunning masterpiece that combines fantasy and reality in a captivating narrative. Set in 1920s Los Angeles, the story follows Alexandria (Catinca Untaru), a young girl recovering in a hospital, and Roy Walker (Lee Pace), a stuntman with a broken spirit. Shot in over 20 countries, the film includes breathtaking scenes without relying on CGI, making it a visually enchanting experience.

Moon (2009)

Directed by Duncan Jones, Moon is a thought-provoking science fiction film exploring identity, isolation, and humanity. Sam Rockwell stars as Sam Bell, an astronaut nearing the end of his three-year stint on a lunar base. His only companion is GERTY, an AI robot voiced by Kevin Spacey. As Sam’s mission concludes, he questions his reality. 

The Secret in Their Eyes (2009)

This Argentine thriller follows retired legal counselor Benjamín Espósito (Ricardo Darín) as he revisits an unsolved murder case and reconnects with Irene (Soledad Villamil), his former superior. The film’s rich narrative and outstanding performances earned it the 2010 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.

Nostalgia is ruling our TV screens these days, and reboots and reimaginings of beloved old franchises are having a moment. Amazon Prime Video is embracing this trend by putting a modern twist on several hit 2000s movies, and these three got everyone talking.

Legally Blonde

After months of speculations, the Legally Blonde spin-off series is officially happening, and we know what it’ll have in store. This prequel series will chronicle Elle Woods’ high school years, and see what shaped her into the strong young woman we know her as today. Insecure’s Laura Kittrell created this spin-off for Amazon, and they have another one in the works.

Tomb Raider

Fleabag star Phoebe Waller-Bridge has been plotting her Tomb Raider adaptation for quite some time, and Amazon finally gave it a series order. Waller-Bridge has been a fan of Lara Croft for years, and she said it’s an incredible privilege to go on this adventure.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith

Inspired by the 2005 action comedy of the same name, this reboot centers on two lonely strangers in an arranged marriage, completing dangerous missions for a mysterious agency. Donald Glover and Maya Erskine led the show’s first season, but it’s possible its next chapter would shift focus to a new couple.

Action comedies are one of the most cinematic movie genres worth seeing on the big screen, and this spring is bringing quite a few our way. If the blend of comedy and action happens to be your idea of fun, here are three new films you should check out in theatres.

The Fall Guy

Ryan Gosling’s latest film is a love letter to the stunt community, and it sees him play an aging stuntman. He must put his skills to the test after the lead actor of his latest movie goes missing and do everything in his power to save him in an attempt to impress his director ex.

Hit Man

Glen Powell is one of the most exciting comedy leads of his generation, and we’ll soon see him star in Richard Linklater’s Hit Man. This action rom-com centers on a college professor who moonlights as a hitman for the local police, until falling for one of his clients.

Bad Boys: Ride or Die

Bad Boys for Life did a great job reviving this action franchise, and its sequel is just around the corner. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are coming back for another wild ride as our favorite buddy cop duo, who’ll have to work outside of the law in an attempt to investigate corruption within the Miami PD.

Think you’ve seen every movie worth seeing? In the vast ocean of cinema, some gems don’t receive the recognition they deserve. Here are three underrated films you need to watch that will leave a lasting impression.

The Fall (2006)

Directed by Tarsem Singh, The Fall is a visually stunning masterpiece that combines fantasy and reality in a captivating narrative. Set in 1920s Los Angeles, the story follows Alexandria (Catinca Untaru), a young girl recovering in a hospital, and Roy Walker (Lee Pace), a stuntman with a broken spirit. Shot in over 20 countries, the film includes breathtaking scenes without relying on CGI, making it a visually enchanting experience.

Moon (2009)

Directed by Duncan Jones, Moon is a thought-provoking science fiction film exploring identity, isolation, and humanity. Sam Rockwell stars as Sam Bell, an astronaut nearing the end of his three-year stint on a lunar base. His only companion is GERTY, an AI robot voiced by Kevin Spacey. As Sam’s mission concludes, he questions his reality. 

The Secret in Their Eyes (2009)

This Argentine thriller follows retired legal counselor Benjamín Espósito (Ricardo Darín) as he revisits an unsolved murder case and reconnects with Irene (Soledad Villamil), his former superior.

Nostalgia is ruling our TV screens these days, and reboots and reimaginings of beloved old franchises are having a moment. Amazon Prime Video is embracing this trend by putting a modern twist on several hit 2000s movies, and these three got everyone talking.

Legally Blonde

After months of speculations, the Legally Blonde spin-off series is officially happening, and we know what it’ll have in store. This prequel series will chronicle Elle Woods’ high school years, and see what shaped her into the strong young woman we know her as today. Insecure’s Laura Kittrell created this spin-off for Amazon, and they have another one in the works.

Tomb Raider

Fleabag star Phoebe Waller-Bridge has been plotting her Tomb Raider adaptation for quite some time, and Amazon finally gave it a series order. Waller-Bridge has been a fan of Lara Croft for years, and she said it’s an incredible privilege to go on this adventure.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith

Inspired by the 2005 action comedy of the same name, this reboot centers on two lonely strangers in an arranged marriage, completing dangerous missions for a mysterious agency. Donald Glover and Maya Erskine led the show’s first season, but it’s possible its next chapter would shift focus to a new couple.

Action comedies are one of the most cinematic movie genres worth seeing on the big screen, and this spring is bringing quite a few our way. If the blend of comedy and action happens to be your idea of fun, here are three new films you should check out in theatres.

The Fall Guy

Ryan Gosling’s latest film is a love letter to the stunt community, and it sees him play an aging stuntman. He must put his skills to the test after the lead actor of his latest movie goes missing and do everything in his power to save him in an attempt to impress his director ex.

Hit Man

Glen Powell is one of the most exciting comedy leads of his generation, and we’ll soon see him star in Richard Linklater’s Hit Man. This action rom-com centers on a college professor who moonlights as a hitman for the local police, until falling for one of his clients.

Bad Boys: Ride or Die

Bad Boys for Life did a great job reviving this action franchise, and its sequel is just around the corner. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are coming back for another wild ride as our favorite buddy cop duo, who’ll have to work outside of the law in an attempt to investigate corruption within the Miami PD.
