“From Hilde, With Love,” which world premiered Saturday in competition at the Berlinale, has debuted its trailer (below). The film, directed by Andreas Dresen, centers on a group of young anti-Nazi activists in Berlin during World War II. (Read Variety‘s review here.)

The film is a love story about two real life members of the pro-Communist, German resistance movement known as the Red Orchestra, Hilde and Hans Coppi.

When Laila Stieler’s script for “From Hilde, With Love,” which world premiered Saturday in competition at the Berlinale, first came to director Andreas Dresen he was a little reluctant to take the project on.
The issue was not the script but the subject-matter: set in Nazi-era Berlin, “From Hilde, With Love” is a love story about two real life members of the pro-Communist, German resistance movement known as the Red Orchestra, Hilde and Hans Coppi. More than 50 members of the group were guillotined in Berlin’s Plötzensee Prison between 1942 and 1943, including the Coppis. Hilde gave birth to her son in prison. He is alive today and was consulted about the production.
“I was a little bit afraid of doing these films about Nazi times, because it’s always in sepia colors, you know, very historical, very artificial always, and this is not the style of cinema I like,” he tells Variety.

When director Christopher Nolan was conceptualizing his epic sci-fi drama Interstellar, he knew the film’s soaring orchestral score would be crucial for conveying the story’s grand themes and emotional core. So he devised an unorthodox way of kickstarting the creative process with iconic composer Hans Zimmer, his longtime collaborator. It involved an extremely tight deadline and very little initial information.
Was Hans Zimmer Hesitant About Christopher Nolan’s Bold Request?
Christopher Nolan – The Late Show
Christopher Nolan revealed he called up Hans Zimmer before even fleshing out the full Interstellar story.
He told the stunned composer,
“I’m going to bring you an envelope with a letter in it, on a piece of paper, that’s going to tell you the underlying fable at the heart of the film…You get one day, just write something and you have to give it to me end of the day.

‘From Hilde, With Love’ Review: Andreas Dresen Returns With an Affecting Romance Set in 1942 Germany
Two years after their Berlinale prizewinner “Rabiye Kurnaz vs. George W. Bush,” veteran German director Andreas Dresen and his regular screenwriter Laila Stieler reteam for the moving drama “From Hilde, With Love.” Drawing on the compelling real-life case of Hilde and Hans Coppi, a young married couple arrested and executed for treason by the Gestapo in wartime Berlin, the film cross-cuts between an idyllic summer romance and much darker later events. While the couple’s relationship is necessarily a crucial part of the story, the focus is on Hilde, who was imprisoned while eight months pregnant, had her baby in prison, and faced the guillotine a short time later. It’s an emotionally relentless sequence of events which naturally provides a touching role for Liv Lisa Fries, who gives a subtle but layered performance.

It's official: "Dune" is not a book or a movie, it's a really great album for which the other stuff serve as companion pieces. This was made clear in a feature about "Dune: Part Two" in the latest issue of Total Film, where director Denis Villeneuve spoke about his composer, Hans Zimmer, and his intense love for the project. According to Villeneuve, Zimmer loved creating music for "Dune" so much that he just couldn't stop.
"I remember at one point, he called me, and said, 'Denis, listen to this. You're going to love this.' I said, 'Hans, it's absolutely fantastic music. I deeply love it. But we released the film six months ago!' He was still scoring non-stop. And he's doing the same right now, by the way. It's by far the best score I've had in my life."
Although a lot of the score didn't end up in either movie,...

Planet Earth III, the BBC nature series helmed by Sir David Attenborough, was created to reflect the increasing change occurring within the world’s natural habitats. The eight-episode series explores oceans, deserts, grasslands, coasts, and more, where nature itself provides the type of soundtrack people listen to while drifting off to sleep. But it also explores humans while delving into the conservation champions fighting to save the planet while we still can — and there’s music for that, too.

The three films included on the Criterion Collection’s Tod Browning’s Sideshow Shockers collectively suggest a miniature narrative of Browning’s evolution as a filmmaker. Though this two-disc set offers but a dip of the toe into Browning’s work, it’s governed by a persuasive through line. Here we get a film, 1925’s The Mystic, that’s rich in promise and less personal than the other two, one a perverse masterwork, 1927’s The Unknown, that’s criminally underseen by contemporary audiences, and the other a cult classic, 1932’s Freaks, that’s too often discussed in terms of its notoriety. Watching these films together offers a sketch of an artist’s sensibility reaching fruition, as a fine-grained empathy rises to the fore.
Browning’s affinity for outcasts has been well-documented and is discussed at length in the supplements included with this set, particularly in a new interview with author...

Listen up all you girly men! This isn’t Hans and Franz talking, it’s Mr. Universe himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger. With a storied career in bodybuilding, action movies and multimillion-dollar business ventures, the man has been through a lot. But none of it was handed to him – he struggled and he worked hard to go from a young Austrian boy written off by his father to one of the most recognizable and admirable figures in pop culture. So quit your whining and be like Arnold!
Speaking with Howard Stern, Arnold Schwarzenegger said, “It’s all about hard work. That’s why I say…work but work your ass off. There’s no shortcut and you have to kind of put the work in…The human mind can only really grow through resistance. You can only strengthen your character, become a really strong person inside if you have resistance. If you fail,...

It cannot be that one is not familiar with characters like Cinderella or Little Red Riding Hood. They have a special place in the cultural consciousness as they are characters from world-famous fairy tales. Now, a fairy tale may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but a good murder mystery is something else. Yûichi Fukuda’s Once Upon a Crime, is a whodunit spin on the fairytale universe. It’s quite an intriguing idea, and with Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood as the main characters, it becomes all the more fascinating. The story begins with the story of Little Red Riding Hood, where we see the titular character going on her adventures. This tale is known to everyone, but the twist comes when she meets Cinderella on the way and tries to get her to go to the famous ball where she will meet her ‘prince charming.’ The...

You probably didn’t imagine in your wildest of dreams that one day someone would make a film with a fairytale character as celebrated as Cinderella and turn it into a murder mystery. The famous story of Cinderella going to the ball is probably known to most fairytale aficionados. While Netflix’s latest Japanese import, titled Once Upon A Crime, is essentially a retelling of that famous fairytale, there is a pretty wild twist, which makes the film one of the weirdest things that I have seen in a while. It is right there in the title itself: in this Cinderella story, a “crime” happens. And that crime is investigated by none other than Red Riding Hood, who basically takes on the role of a mystery-solving detective. In what should be considered one of the most ambitious genre mashups, you get a taste of fairytale and murder mystery in the same place,...

Exclusive: Hans and Franz, the popular Saturday Night Live bodybuilding sketch that was set to be turned into a movie, is being revisited as a podcast.
The sketch originally starred Dana Carvey and Kevin Nealon and was popular during the late 1980s. It starred Carvey and Nealon as a pair of muscle-bound Austrian bodybuilders and was inspired by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
In the early ‘90s, it was developed as a musical movie, first at Sony, then at Columbia Pictures, that was set to star Carvey and Nealon as well as Schwarzenegger himself.
A script was written by Nealon, Carvey, Robert Smigel and O’Brien, but it never made it past development, widely considered to be a result of the box office failure of Last Action Hero as well as SNL movies such as Stuart Saves His Family and It’s Pat.
The group have now reteamed and turned the idea, or at least some of it,...

Czech-Swedish filmmaker Greta Stocklassa was only eight when the War on Terror began in 2001. In the years that followed, fellow Swede and former Un weapons inspector, Hans Blix, became a central figure in the investigation into weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. In her documentary “Blix Not Bombs,” Stocklassa interviews Blix, now 94 years old, about the period running up to the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq 20 years ago.
In the docu, Blix describes his meetings with George W. Bush and Tony Blair, his frustration when Colin Powell gave his pivotal speech in the Un Security Council, and his feeling of emptiness when the U.S. started the invasion, despite his reports that his team had found no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
Blix also argues that there was a butterfly effect that the Iraq War triggered: the invasion resulted in the overthrow of the Iraqi regime, and the breakup of the Iraqi army,...
