Hot on the heels of last year’s The Outrun comes The Salt Path, another adaptation of a memoir about the healing power of nature, featuring craggy coastlines and encounters with seals. Two examples don’t make a trend, but could it be that studios have identified ‘bestselling nature-writing-slash-memoir’ as a new kind of exportable British intellectual property? While on paper this true story of a middle-aged couple facing homelessness and a debilitating disease embarking on a trek along the southwest coast of England should be compelling, in actuality the road is a bit tough going.

We begin in medias res with hippyish Ray (Gillian Anderson) and Moth (Jason Isaacs) fighting the elements to rescue their tent from being washed away by the tide. We’re then taken back to the beginning of their journey, and both seem weary before they’ve even started. Interwoven flashbacks reveal that not only...

The Batman: Arkham series took the world by storm when its first game was released in 2009. The series became lauded as one of the greatest superhero franchises in video game history. It also gave us the best comic-accurate Batman experience that truly made us feel like the Caped Crusader.

Now that speculations of a new Arkham game have been floating around the web for a while, fans cannot help but wonder who is going to be the next big villain in the Arkhamverse. If you are one of those people who are scratching their head with no idea who is going to be the next harbinger of havoc, then worry not, because we have brought you a list of 5 Batman villains who would be perfect for the next Arkham game.

1. Ventriloquist

The Ventriloquist, or Arnold Wesker, is a ruthless criminal and a crime boss in the DC Comics who (as...

Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir has plenty of colorful heroes and villains. The anime wouldn't be a superhero series if each of these memorable characters didn't come with their own unique abilities. However, some characters may have powers that stand out as stronger than the rest. These abilities can easily create chaos or undo it by simply saying a word.

There are few attacks in Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir that would directly harm people. Instead, the abilities are used to make people more powerful or to trap and capture. Others allow the wielder complete access to time itself. Plenty of powers stand out in this animated show, but these are the best the series offers.

You know the old saying about the truth being stranger than fiction? Well, it's certainly one that applies to the story of Raynor and Moth Winn, a couple who — after a business deal with a friend went awry — lost their home, suffered a devastating neurodegenerative condition diagnosis for husband Moth, and then decided to walk the 630-mile South West Coast Path despite having no prior rambling experience. It's a simultaneously harrowing and inspiring story that first became The Salt Path, a bestselling memoir-cum-travelogue for Raynor Winn, and is now about to become a major new film starring Jason Isaacs (Hello!) and Gillian Anderson. You can check out the newly released trailer below:

If, like us, you're a sucker for walky-talky find yourself films like The Way, Wild, A Walk In The Woods, or The Unlikely Pilgrimage Of Harold Fry, then Marianne Elliott's film looks like it'll fit right within the micro-genre's milieu.

Legendary Kiwi actor Lucy Lawless, renowned for her iconic roles in Xena: Warrior Princess, Battlestar Galactica, and Spartacus: Blood and Sand, recently sat down with HeyUGuys to discuss her compelling directorial debut, Never Look Away. The film delves into the remarkable life and career of Margaret Moth, one of New Zealand’s most fearless war photographers. The film represents a bold and exciting shift for Lawless as she transitions from her celebrated acting career to the challenging and creative world behind the camera.

In the interview, Lawless shared her deep admiration for Moth, whose life was a testament to courage, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of truth through photojournalism. Moth’s fearless approach to capturing stories resulted in her being shot by a sniper suring the siege of Sarajevo in 1992. Lawless spoke passionately about the responsibility of telling Moth’s story authentically, ensuring that her unparalled spirit and groundbreaking work resonate with audiences.

Fascinating documentary about Margaret Moth, whose footage from war zones almost killed her in 1992, lives up to her motto ‘don’t be boring’

When TV news camerawoman Margaret Moth was shot through the face by a Serbian sniper in Sarajevo in 1992, her CNN colleagues were told that it was touch and go. One medic said that her face was so badly injured it might be better if she died. But not only did Moth survive, she went back to the frontline. “She didn’t do less war after she was shot,” remembers one colleague and friend. “She did more.” This documentary about her life, directed by the actor Lucy Lawless, is a fascinating portrait of a woman who had two mottoes: “no regrets” and “don’t be boring”.

With her jet-black hair, thick black eyeliner and army combat boots (which she slept in on the job) Moth looked more like...

Lucy Lawless is stepping behind the camera for the first time with Never Look Away. Lawless memorably first broke out on screen with the classic fantasy show Xena: Warrior Princess, which she had originated in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys before receiving her own spinoff. In the years since, the New Zealand actor has found further success with everything from Battlestar: Galactica to key roles in the Spartacus franchise as Lucretia and Ash vs. Evil Dead as the villainous Ruby.

With Never Look Away, Lawless finds herself pulling from her home country's history to explore the life of Margaret Moth, a photojournalist who worked for CNN in the '90s, covering the likes of the Persian Gulf War, the Tbilisi, Georgia civil war, the Bosnian War, and a variety of other conflicts in the Middle East. The movie also chronicles Moth's personal life, including the various lovers she had and...

Remembering Margaret Moth, he former lover, Jeff Russi, recalls “She definitely wanted to be where people were doing something wrong. Where she had a purpose.”

Some people live life as hard as they can. Growing up in a household where both parents were violent, a place she would later address only through her nightmarish sketches, Moth died her hair, changed her name, moved to the big city, made a name for herself as a photographer. She picked up Russi when he was 17 and she was 30, but there was something real between them, sweet and tender, to which they returned over the years, when she was back in town. Another such lover, photojournalist Yashinka, awaited her in a flat in Paris. The two of them did heroin together; with Russi, it was speed, or whatever came to hand. But nothing, nothing came close to the thrill of war.

Margaret Moth’s life could have been ripped straight from a pulp fiction novel. The New Zealand-born photojournalist spent her youth dropping acid and skydiving before traversing the globe to blaze trails for women in the world of war photography. Rising through the ranks at CNN, she covered war zones in Kuwait, Georgia, Bosnia, Lebanon, the Congo, Somalia, Chechnya, Gaza, and Sarajevo — where she took a bullet to the face that permanently limited her ability to speak but barely slowed her down. Unfazed by gunfire and explosions, she saw battlefields as breeding grounds for the kind of human drama that was worth risking any amount of physical safety to document.

She did it all while maintaining an unapologetically individualistic mindset, refusing any kind of commitment that could hinder her ability to drop everything at a moment’s notice to pursue a new adventure. While she was never interested in family,...

King Shark proves Batman's No-Kill Rule valid by selflessly defending Killer Moth in Suicide Squad: Kill Arkham Asylum #2 preview. This altruistic act highlights King Shark's potential for rehabilitation, challenging his traditional villain label. DC could be setting up King Shark as its next beloved anti-hero, much like they did with Red Hood and Harley Quinn.

Margaret Moth in Never Look Away

Lucy Lawless steps behind the camera for the first time as a director to tell the story of fellow New Zealander, Margaret Moth, who passed away in March 2010. A trailblazing combat camerawoman who worked for CNN, Moth’s images from the frontlines of conflicts including Desert Storm and the Bosnian War, confronted people in their homes with the abject reality of war. Her footage not only caught historic moments but framed the violent and merciless propensity of human beings to dehumanise others.

Moth herself was a contradictory figure, living a carefree and hedonistic lifestyle of sex, drugs and thrill-seeking, whose life was transformed after she was shot by a sniper’s bullet in Sarajevo. Never Look Away charts her endurance against adversity, peeling away the layers of her life to offer an understanding of its enigmatic subject.

In conversation with Eye For Film, Lawless...
