From the Vengeance Trilogy to Cannes 2026, Park Chan-wook has reshaped global perceptions of Korean cinema. A clear portrait of his style, key milestones, major Cannes moments, and the films that made his name.
Spielberg returns to extraterrestrials with Disclosure Day. From Firelight in 1964 to Close Encounters of the Third Kind, E.T., and War of the Worlds, he has kept looking to the sky with undiminished fascination. This conspiracy thriller, centered on the revelation of the extraterrestrial secret, often impresses but struggles to bring all its ambitions together.
In an unevenly served cast, Emily Blunt carries the film, while Josh O’Connor, Colman Domingo, Colin Firth, and Eve Hewson are more or less well written. The film touches on faith, childhood, and theological vertigo, but often remains at the level of suggestion.
At 2 hours and 25 minutes, Disclosure Day feels stretched and ultimately frustrating: strong ideas, fragments of great cinema, but an unfinished work.

Cannes remains the one place in the world where cinema still speaks as though it has something urgent to say. Not just a showcase, not just a market, a moment when films from everywhere arrive on the same Croisette with the same ambition: to matter.
The movies and series of April 2026 open with Kristoffer Borgli’s The Drama — Zendaya and Robert Pattinson in an A24 dark comedy that divides critics and stays with you long after. Yellow Letters by Ilker Çatak, Golden Bear in Berlin, confirms one of the strongest voices in European cinema. And on streaming: Euphoria returns after four years, The Boys signs off, Richard Gadd delivers Half Man.
The skies were closed. The films were here. The 26th Festival of Israeli Cinema in Paris ended on 24 March 2026. Ten days at the Majestic Passy, in a climate of record antisemitism — and yet audiences came in force, and the films held, resisted, moved. Here are the ones that stayed with me.
The 98th Academy Awards take place this Sunday at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. Ryan Coogler’s Sinners arrives with 16 nominations – an absolute record in Oscar history. Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another has swept every major precursor award. One of them will have to give way. And in the background: a war, a drone threat over California, and a filmmaker who may return to prison tomorrow.
The 26th Paris Israeli Film Festival runs March 16–24, 2026 at Majestic Passy.

Patron this year: Radu Mihăileanu, filmmaker of exile and memory.
