Movies Update: Cannes and More

Plus, our critics' favorite films.

View in browser|nytimes.com Continue reading the main story May 13, 2022 By Stephanie Goodman Film Editor While Hollywood digests the monster box office results for "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" — is this good news for moviegoing in general or just Marvel? — we on the film desk are getting ready for the Cannes Film Festival, which starts on Tuesday. Opening the event will be a zombie movie from Michel Hazanavicius ("The Artist"). It's titled "Final Cut" in English, but the original French title, "Z (Comme Z)," was changed to "Coupé" (meaning chopped or cut) after Ukrainians pointed out that Z had become a pro-Russian symbol in demonstrations about the war. By any name, it stars Bérénice Bejo and Romain Duris in a comedy about a film crew making a zombie movie. We're eager to hear what The Times's co-chief film critic Manohla Dargis thinks. She and our Projectionist columnist, Kyle Buchanan, will be on the ground filing reports until Cannes wraps up on May 28. Stateside, the films our critics are especially excited about include "Pleasure," a feminist look at the porn industry that Dargis calls "smart, gutsy, wholly unexpected"; and "Il Buco," an Italian drama about the 1961 exploration of a cave that her fellow co-chief film critic, A.O. Scott, says is "infused with abstract, even spiritual meanings." Whatever you decide to see, have fun at the movies!

By A.O. Scott Tania Franco Klein for The New York Times Critic's Notebook When Motherhood Is a Horror Show For the onscreen moms in "The Baby," "Umma" and "Lamb" — and for an ascendant class of sardonic mom influencers — the source of psychological torture is motherhood itself. By Amanda Hess Marvel Studios Critic's Notebook The Spell 'Doctor Strange' Is Missing: Sam Raimi's Macabre Vision The auteur put his mark on the new film in a few spots, but his "Spider-Man" movies prove that superhero tales needn't be so visually bland.
