Ink: Boyle’s Murdoch drama lights up Venice with kinetic energy

Danny Boyle’s Ink, adapted by James Graham from his play, traces Rupert Murdoch’s 1969 takeover of Fleet Street via the Sun’s transformation into a populist tabloid, driven by Jack O’Connell’s determined editor and Guy Pearce’s ruthless media magnate. Employing rapid editing, a raucous soundtrack, and an energy that recalls Trainspotting, the Venice opener offers a morally ambivalent rise-and-fall chronicle of media sensationalism anchored by a strong ensemble led by Claire Foy. The film hits U.S. theaters December 11 and streams on Netflix January 8, delivering a vivid portrait of the era’s press culture and its ethical compromises.

The Magic Faraway Tree review: a candy-colored, overstuffed family fantasy

Claire Foy and Andrew Garfield star in The Magic Faraway Tree, a visually bright but relentlessly twee adaptation of Enid Blyton's tale. Polly and Tim move with their kids to the countryside after Polly resigns over a spying fridge she invented, leading the children to meet Silky the fairy and a parade of quirky characters. Judi Dench voices the sentient fridge, with Rebecca Ferguson as the villain and Jennifer Saunders as the grandmother. The film dazzles with bold pastel visuals and imaginative costumes, but its sugary, overstuffed tone and thin wit make it wearying for adults, even as it may charm younger audiences and offer a whimsical, bookish escape.
