When asked about all the fine restaurants in Rome, she said Stanley Tucci who was also present for the magnificent film “Conclave,” knew more. Isabella looked rad...

It attracted almost double the capacity of Auditorium No. 4, the day being Sunday, a weekly holiday here. That caused an inordinate delay in starting the film. Finally, the film was screened, and, sadly so, it was the only weak link in the five film package. Although it wa...
Ice 3, Review: Russian film festival’s six-pack of ice
While Mumbaikars were still mulling to dig into their winter-wardrobe, the Russian Film Festival laid out the white carpet, with huge sheets of ice several kilometres long, for the film was set in the freezing north.
