Film Threads is a platform for film reviews, discussion, awards & WTF moments when yet another reboot or Jane Austen adaptation is announced. I'm Australian, so won't reply to DMs on US politics.

RiP to the icon #UdoKier! One of the great Draculas ❤️❤️❤️ I loved him so much in Swan Song and My Own Private Idaho as well as his Warhol classics.

Udo & Arno Juerging in Blood For Dracula - one of the funniest screen duos :)

Congratulations to the GOAT!
#BeingEddie is a must watch btw

Hold the 2026 #Emmy awards already - Best Actor in a limited series is done.

Welcome back #MatthewMacfadyen in #DeathByLightning!!

There are very few people working today who can hold a candle to Macfadyen, who is so deliriously good that it makes you impatient with everyone else onscreen.

Also, I love that while most of us are jubilant that an out gay man has finally, a thousand years later, been named People's sexiest man alive, I love that in a tiny corner of the internet some fans have kept their laser focus.

Dear media

Please never quote George Clooney's uninformed opinions on US presidential politics and either Biden or Harris and their capacity to lead the country again.

If you must ask a celebrity for an opinion, Tom Morello studied political science at Harvard, ask him instead.

Born on this day ... my favourite actor #MontgomeryClift

Local cinema is running a three night tribute to #RobertRedford. Tonight: #ButchCassidyandTheSundanceKid. What a movie, what a trio of performances, what stunning cinematography.

And the bicycle scene scored by "Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head": one of cinema's most life-affirming ❤️

Is #JackLemmon's monologue in #ShortCuts better than #JackLemmon's monologue in #GlengarryGlenRoss? You can see Ola in the basement, opening her robe! #Altman

#CannonballRun, what a classic. And bear with me - has anyone ever seen #BurtReynolds and #PedroPascal in the same room? Or driving the same orange and white Connecticut ambulance?! Twins!

#RobertRedford directed #RalphFiennes in an underrated and overlooked classic, #QuizShow. It's always been a favourite for its subtle, layered characterisations, intelligent script and #MartinScorsese's performance as the TV show sponsor ("try Gerritol"). Two golden boys on set (credit: Alamy) 🧡💛

RIP to one of the all-time greats. Watching #AllThePresidentsMen in film class got me serious about movies. Thank you to the truly legendary #RobertRedford for the movies, the magic, the charm, and reshaping the industry with #Sundance ❤️

We can only hope!!

but creates a different kind of genius. A beautiful movie, sensuous, gloriously visual, driven by Clift's expressive nuanced acting - the most naturalistic of actors, so modern & effortless unlike his contemporary Brando - and William Hornbeck's stylised editing. One of the great 50s movies. (3/3)

#Sinners unconscious bias continues.

Or maybe American film critics are just desperate for an #Oscar "race".

More #Oscar buzz for #RalphFiennes in #TheChoral.

It's a lot more plausible than the endless paid PR for:
- The Rock with a prosthetic face playing, shock horror, a professional fighter
- Matthew McConaughey driving a bus and using his own accent in what, Speed 3?
- Jesse Plemons trying to act

Why is so much commentary on #Sinners negative? It's the movie of the year and should slice through the Oscars like butter. Why can't people recognise #RyanCoogler as a next-level auteur? I mean, I know why, but c'mon

Another one of cinema's great duos: #JeffreyWright and #LievSchrieber in #TheFrenchDispatch. They nailed the great 70s talk show era where Dick Cavett would interview a chainsmoking James Baldwin, or Tennessee Williams, or Gore Vidal.

RIP to a legend of international cinema, #TerenceStamp. Australians like @FilmThreads will always adore his beautiful, industry-shaping performance in #PriscillaQOTD. One of the screen's great men of style, whether playing it taciturn in #TheLimey or in arch villain mode in #Superman
