Identified only by their last name, Tu, the husband and wife in Brief History of a Family have built their comfortably middle-class life together in accordance with China’s one-child policy. Now, in less restrictive times, a chance to expand their nuclear unit arrives in the form of their teenage son’s mysterious new friend. From shifting perspectives, writer-director Lin Jianjie examines the contained volatility of this four-person configuration. His stylistic choices can be spot-on or self-conscious in their artifice, but his debut feature reveals a talent to watch. With its intriguing performances, narrative restraint and unanswered questions, the movie delivers a strong pull of yearning as well as tantalizing currents of suspicion and dread.
The two boys are schoolmates who apparently have never interacted until the day Wei (Lin Muran) makes an overture of friendship that’s less innocent than it seems. The studious loner Shuo (Sun Xilun) becomes...

Cher and her boyfriend Alexander “Ae” Edwards celebrated something special when they attended the Givenchy show during Paris Fashion Week on Thursday (September 28) – the anniversary of when they first met!
The Hollywood couple was first linked in November 2022 after romantic photos went viral. However, while on the red carpet at the event, Cher told Wwd that Paris Fashion Week was a special time for them.
“I met my boyfriend here last year, so it’s our anniversary. And so I’m pretty excited,” she explained. As for how they’re celebrating, it sounds like nothing was set in stone just yet: “I don’t know what we’re gonna do. Everything we do is special.”
One year after their first meeting, Cher and Ae looked cool at the event. She wore a black jacket over a white shirt, and he matched in monochromatic black. The duo also both had platinum blonde hair!

The story of a disadvantaged girl and the mother who never gives up on her, Ann Hu’s Confetti is a heart-warming but initially rather ordinary sort of film which transforms into something much more interesting as a result of a revelation halfway through. It’s a very personal film for the director and it’s a film with a mission, a US production with a clear eye on the Chinese market which hopes to change the way that the Chinese government approaches education.
Meimei (Harmonie He) is a bright child determined to get off to a good start on her first day at school. Her mother, Chen Lan (Zhu Zhu) is a cleaner at the school and can’t resist a peek through the classroom window, nervous as most parents are in that situation. Sadly, in this case her nerves are justified. Meimei claims that she understands the words written on the board,...

Heartfelt, gently moving drama inspired by director Ann Hu’s own experiences, will resonate with any parent who has had to advocate for their child
Any parent who has had to advocate for their child will find something to relate to in Chinese-American director Ann Hu’s well-intentioned and gently moving drama. It’s loosely inspired by her own experiences raising a dyslexic daughter, fictionalised here into the story of an illiterate woman who goes to the ends of the earth – at least that’s how it feels – in emigrating from China to New York to get specialist educational support for her seven-year-old.
The acting is patchy in places, but Harmonie He marches away with the movie with a lively performance as sunny little Meimei, who is unable to read or write at school in China. Just before Meimei is expelled (“not normal” is the headteacher’s verdict), a visiting American teacher,...

"Who wants to be normal?!" Dada Films has released a new official US trailer for a Chinese-American film titled Confetti, written and directed by filmmaker Anne Hu (of Shadow Magic), telling her own story of moving to America when she was young. The film is a hopeful drama about overcoming personal challenges and focuses on a mother struggling with illiteracy and her daughter recently diagnosed with dyslexia after they move to New York City. It stars up-and-coming actress Zhu Zhu, along with Amy Irving, Helen Slater, and Harmonie He. Confetti "looks at the often-silent struggles faced by so many immigrant families. Featuring an affecting performance by Zhu Zhu, a steely and strong-willed turn by Amy Irving, and a delightful debut from young Harmonie He, Confetti shows that amongst a deluge of challenges, a sprinkling of hope, heart, and determination can help make sense of a confusing world and our place in it.

"We all have to face ourselves sooner or later..." Gravitas has debuted an official trailer for a peculiar indie sci-fi film titled Two/One, also written out as 2/1. The film is about two men from opposites sides of the world who are connected - when one sleeps, the other one is awake. It seems to be inspired by Your Name, the body-switching anime sensation, but with a more dramatic premise. When the two different men finally meet, a simple question arises: Who is the dream and who is the dreamer? Ah yes, the age old philosophical question. "They slowly begin to realize that they might be dreaming each other. They are, in some strange way, the same person." Starring Boyd Holbrook, Song Yang, Dominique McElligott, Beau Bridges, Zhu Zhu, and Anna Van Hooft. This looks slick, but seems the concept was too ambitious to fully realize. Here's the official trailer (+ two...

Sometimes when you look out of an airplane window during a long-haul flight you get a view like the God’s-eye imagery that occasionally punctuates Argentinian filmmaker Juan Cabral’s intriguing debut: a dark, curved horizon rimmed with the glimmer of a new dawn. “Two/One,” the celebrated advertising director’s first full-length feature, seems born of this lofty, sleep-deprived perspective.
Two men, strangers to one another and living on opposites sides of the planet, share a yin-and-yang-like connection through cycles of sleep and wakefulness. But this immaculately built film, is most remarkable for the warm, intensely real-feeling observation of these two different but gently echoing lives. For all the vaguely New-Age-y philosophy that underpins the movie, “Two/One” is lovely to look at, engagingly humane and surprisingly down to earth, at least until Cabral’s script lapses into overdetermination later on and the subtle magic fizzles out in a fog of tediously unanswerable practicalities.

USA Network has rounded out the cast for its straight-to series drama Treadstone, an offshoot from Universal’s Bourne franchise. The Affair star Omar Metwally, Tracy Ifeachor (Quantico), Hyo Joo Han (W: Two Worlds), Gabrielle Scharnitzky (The Game) and Emilia Schüle (Berlin Station) join previously announced Jeremy Irvine and Brian J. Smith as series regulars in the drama from Heroes creator Tim Kring and Universal Cable Productions.
Written by Kring, Treadstone explores the origin story and present-day actions of a CIA black ops program known as Operation Treadstone — a covert program that uses behavior-modification protocol to turn recruits into nearly superhuman assassins. The first season follows sleeper agents across the globe as they’re mysteriously “awakened” to resume their deadly missions.
Metwally will play Mr. Edwards, a CIA agent who was ostracized by his colleagues after making a decision that left a fellow operative dead. His willingness to make the...

So the official synopsis for Flight From Hell, aka Last Flight, reads like this: “As an old Boeing 747 takes off for its last red-eye flight from a small Pacific island, unusual events occur intermittently. While all the passengers are panic, the captain and the chief flight attendant try to lead the investigation.”
Sound familiar? It should. For that’s essentially the core plot of the Brandon Routh starring Lost in the Pacific – a film made by Vincent Zhou, the same writer/director as this. Like his other plane-set film, Flight From Hell is another English/Mandarin co-production that features an international cast, lead this time by Ed Westwick (Gossip Girl) and Zhu Zhu (Cloud Atlas) as the planes pilot and heroic flight attendant respectively.

This might just turn out to be a faulty light for Salman Khan and Kabir Khan. After much-high anticipation, Salman Khan’s annual Eid blockbuster which was expecting to take the throne away from Baahubali at the Box Office, opened with a slow start this weekend. The war drama, which stars Salman Khan as Laxman Prasad aka Tubelight, featuring brother Sohail Khan and Chinese actress Zhu Zhu in the lead, opened to lower ratings from the critics as well as the audiences, thereby proving a dismal start in its opening week. It is also one of the lowest Box Office openings for any Salman Khan movie till date. According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the movie managed to collect Inr 21 Crores on the opening Friday. Till date, Salman’s Sultan has been his highest Eid blockbuster. Speaking about the dismal start of the movie, Salman Khan said that he was...

In 2015’s surprisingly poignant “Bajrangi Bhaijaan,” filmmaker Kabir Khan had even the most dogged of Salman Khan’s skeptics reaching for tissues, giving him the reputation as the one writer-director who could at last bring out a certain depth in the actor that, frankly, many of us didn’t think was there. So when “Tubelight” was announced as the duo’s next release, much of the excitement was rooted in the hopes of another winning collaboration.
“Bajrangi” and “Tubelight” have lots in common: Salman in the lead as a man-child with a golden heart. The lessons of loving thy neighbor and never giving up hope. An impossibly adorable child as Salman’s sidekick, pivotal to selling us on those messages. But where “Bajrangi” effectively harnessed the actor’s mega-star persona into a simple character that still — in true Salman tradition — had a significant moral undertone, “Tubelight” struggles to strike that balance,...

Eid isn’t Eid if you don’t have a Salman Khan film to gush over. Since back in 2009, it is fully accepted in the industry that Salman owns Eid. Indian and world audiences have loved him over and again. Whether it was the remake of a Telugu film Pokiri in Wanted, the romantic spy action of Ek Tha Tiger or the cross-border comedy that was Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Salman has firmly settled himself as the man for Eid in Bollywood. Last year was no different with the blockbuster Sultan. From all indications however, this year will be different. Even though Kabir Khan is helming the megaphone again, this film is different to anything that has come before from Salman or Bollywood. For the first time, we are going to look at war from the perspective of the soldiers’ families.
“Kya tumhe yakeen hai?” From the poster, we have the immediate feel of change.

Tubelight
Starring Salman Khan, Sohail Khan,Matin Rey Tangu, Zhu Zhu, Om Puri
Directed by Kabir Khan
Faith, they say, can move mountains. The hero of Kabir Khan’s latest and his most ….ummm….noble (if one can use that word without cynicism) film to date actually thinks he can move a mountain by just focusing hard on getting it right.
Tubelight is not a film for the cynics. But if you can toss aside your reservations about a world steeped in arcadian innocence and accept humanism rather than hedonism as a way of living, you can actually savour the supple undulating rhythms of Kabir Khan’s storytelling without questioning his right to create a world so far removed from practical stressful concerns while addressing a theme as grim as war and its ravages.
