NZ Herald 4/5 Stars “Colette is a simple story but with wonderfully complex characters that you can really sink your teeth into, and thankfully screenwriter Richard Glatzer (Still Alice) takes plenty of time to explore them. The two leads offer vibrant performances that bristle with a pin-sharp wit as they boil in their volatile chemistry.”

In COLETTE, Keira Knightley plays the titular French novelist directed by Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner Wash Westmoreland. Colette tells the fascinating story of the woman behind the scandalous Claudine novels (and later Gigi) that dazzled French society in the first half of the 20th Century.
The film depicts her rise from country girl to darling of the Parisian demi-monde with her husband Henry ‘Willy’ Gauthier-Villars. A critic and author in his own right, he mentors and later betrays her, as her stories gain them fame and notoriety. A compelling insight into this passionate young woman’s journey to create independence, Colette is from the producers of Carol and Still Alice.

In GREEN BOOK, his foray into powerfully dramatic work as a feature director, Peter Farrelly helms the film inspired by a true friendship that transcended race, class and the 1962 Mason-Dixon line.
When Tony Lip (Mortensen), a bouncer from an Italian-American neighborhood in the Bronx, is hired to drive Dr. Don Shirley (Ali), a world-class Black pianist, on a concert tour from Manhattan to the Deep South, they must rely on “The Green Book” to guide them to the few establishments that were then safe for African-Americans.
Confronted with racism, danger—as well as unexpected humanity and humor—they are forced to set aside differences to survive and thrive on the journey of a lifetime.
Directed by Peter Farrelly (‘Dumb and Dumber’, ‘There’s Something About Mary’, ‘Dumb and Dumber To’)

NZIFF 2018 OFFICIAL SELECTION
NZ HERALD REVIEW 4/5 Stars: “What’s notable about The Price of Everything is its refusal to be purely didactic – the film profiles charming, fascinating characters on both sides of the argument. This can mean that the film’s ultimate thesis can get a little murky – every time one side of the divide makes a convincing argument, someone on the other side seems to undercut the point being made.”

THE PRICE OF EVERYTHING 105 mins (Documentary – exempt)
Sunday 7 April 7.00pm
An Art World Odyssey: with unprecedented access to pivotal artists and the white-hot market surrounding them, THE PRICE OF EVERYTHING dives deep into the contemporary art world, holding a fun-house mirror up to our values and our times — where everything can be bought and sold.
In the words of the characters appearing in The Price of Everything, It’s really hard to thrive as an artist in today’s fast-paced market. Seeing the film and having a dialogue about the issues it raises and reflects is a great first step in bringing more visibility to these challenges—and making the changes needed for today’s artists to have greater voice and agency.
Directed by Nathaniel Kahn (‘My Architect’)
