We can be forced to confront the most hidden parts of ourselves at the most terrible points in time. Perhaps that is the nature of such discoveries: only when we are laid bare by grief, by pain, by emotional exposure, do we find what we might have known was there, but was kept away to save us even greater pain. But that pain can also lead to ecstasy, and those emotions mixed together can be volatile. UK actor and director Antonia Campbell-Hughes makes her feature debut with the quietly and deeply unsettling story of a man forced to confront pain, lies, and a haunting groqing ecstasy. It is In Us All is as much a mood piece as a story, with emotionals running high and...

A brash young man visiting Ireland comes apart in Antonia Campbell-Hughes’ promising debut feature
Actor turned film-maker Antonia Campbell-Hughes goes out on a limb here with her feature directing project: a film which is also an experiment in mood and feeling. It’s an interesting if flawed movie, and I wasn’t sure some of the line-readings and the big dialogue scenes completely came off; but this is the work of a director with a real sense of landscape and place.
The scene is the north of Ireland, where a smooth and self-satisfied young businessman has arrived on a short visit: Hamish, played by Cosmo Jarvis, who is alienated from his father, played by Claes Bang, seen only on Zoom calls. Hamish has been bequeathed a remote cottage by an aunt in her will and now he wants to see it. From the outset, the mood is strange, oppressive: Hamish...

Cosmo Jarvis as Hamish in It Is In Us All. Antonia Campbell-Hughes: 'I didn't realise, but I would say that the tableau, the still scenario is what I find so evocative in what I write' Control, freedom and masculinity swirl in Antonia Campbell-Hughes' feature debut. She creates a commanding, brooding mood as Hamish (Cosmo Jarvis), who is visiting Ireland to settle his aunt's estate finds himself increasingly unmoored after a car accident sees him strike up an unsettling relationship with the much younger Evan (Rhys Mannion). We caught up with Campbell-Hughes when the film had its UK premiere at Edinburgh International Film Festival last month ahead of its UK release on September 23.
Amber Wilkinson: I'm interested in the way you're exploring the juncture between the way that one person's out of control is another person's freedom, when it comes to the differences between the older man, Hamish, and the younger Evan.

Can you experience a yearning that's close to nostalgia for a feeling you never had or a place you've never lived? Antonia Campbell-Hughes moody psychodrama explores the possibilities after an accident brings two men, who would normally never have met, into a shared orbit with a shared secret.
One of them is Hamish (Cosmo Jarvis), a well brought up suited city type, whose life is controlled down to the last trouser crease and splash of expensive aftershave. He's come to a remote part of Ireland, where mist and mud rule, following the death of his aunt to sort out the details, much to the chagrin of his father (Claes Bang), glimpsed on voice calls offering instruction but little comfort.
There's a sense of empty, negative space about Hamish even before the accident, an unwillingness to even engage with the flirtatious banter of a rental car clerk (Pauline Hutton). Perhaps that's why hurtling up an.

I watched the movie Cordelia not knowing anything at all about it, and never having seen Irish actor Antonia Campbell-Hughes in anything before. The psychological thriller greatly impressed me in no small part due to the captivating performance of Campbell-Hughes, particularly the emotional depth that she invites the viewer to examine without words. In this episode, she talks about the layering work she did to build that character, the unorthodox way her process (or conscious lack of process) has developed over the years, and why it all started with what continues to be the main ingredient—truth.

So, what’s one of the hazards of living in a big city? Most folks might immediately think of crime or perhaps trying to earn enough to keep up with the high rents. Strangely, a lot of city dwellers deal with isolation, that sibling to loneliness. And even though the streets are packed with bustling commuters and shoppers, there are those who internally “cut themselves off”, going about a routine before locking their doors and almost hibernating, Then there’s an element that accelerates this behavior, say a traumatic incident or accident. This is all at the center of a new psychological thriller set in one of the world’s biggest population centers, London. Even though it focuses on a “flat” that’s the home of two sisters, a deep loneliness haunts the one named Cordelia.

The last few years have seen an uptick in the number of genre films directed by women, and it’s been interesting to see the impact of that on such a traditionally male-dominated field. Directed by Irish-born actress Antonia Campbell-Hughes, It Is In Us All, which had its world premiere in the Narrative Feature lineup at SXSW, is one of the strangest yet: a gore-free body horror that manages to be completely unnerving without conforming to any of the usual expectations that come with the territory. A very rough comparison would be David Cronenberg’s 1996 psychodrama Crash, but the sense of dread here is much less tangible, even though car accidents feature prominently.
The lead is Hamish Considine (Cosmo Jarvis), a worldly London creative who arrives in Donegal to settle his late aunt’s estate, having inherited her home.

"Your eyes are getting worse!" Gravitas Ventures has unveiled a trailer for The Other Me, an indie drama from a Georgian filmmaker named Giga Agladze. This was quietly dumped this month without marketing or promotion at all, and no festival debuts. Jim Sturgess stars as an architect who is diagnosed with a rare eye disease, sending him into a surreal reality in which he sees people's "true motives". As these visions get more intolerable, he falls for a mysterious woman and confronts the truth about his own identity. The film's cast also includes Rhona Mitra, Orla Brady, Andreja Pejic, Antonia Campbell-Hughes, and Jordi Mollà. It's also executive produced by David Lynch, which is a bit strange. But this whole trailer is strange. There's one weird shot of shadowy figures, but the rest of it is just Sturgess going around yelling at nobody? Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Giga Agladze's The Other Me,...

Georgian writer-director-producer Giga Agladze has been a musician, a documentarian and Caucasus regional director of the Transcendental Meditation-focused David Lynch Foundation. Yet none of those things has any obvious bearing on, or makes much sense of, his debut directorial feature—apart from Lynch being on board as a prominently billed executive producer.

That’s symptomatic of . Its cast struggling against material with little real-world or emotional logic, the attempted “surreal” elements uninspired both conceptually and aesthetically, this is a misfire whose intentions are as murky as its results are hapless.

An actress with almost two decades under her belt, Antonia Campbell-Hughes slowly got her feet wet directing some smaller short films and then got into game mode in late 2020 with Cosmo Jarvis toplining a drama pitting his character against a younger (possible antagonist) Rhys Mannion. Claes Bang, Mark O’Halloran, Lalor Roddy have supporting parts as does Campbell-Hughes. Production on the Ireland set It Is In Us All was quite challenging due to it being filmed exactly in the eye of the Covid storm, this has been in post production since January.

Though famously ambivalent about film adaptations of his work — to the degree of never watching some — Alan Moore has written a screen original in “The Show,” perhaps attracted to a more hands-on approach to the medium now that he’s officially retired from comics. This playfully wayward mystery set in his native Northampton turns that burg into a kind of midlands Gotham, where not-quite-superheroic intrigue unfolds as convolutedly as possible. Fun if perhaps a little too tongue-in-cheek for its own good, the results will no doubt appeal most to Moore fans who’ll revel in his Byzantine plotting, noirish tropes and other signature elements. Fathom Events is providing them one-night U.S. theatrical access this Thursday, Aug. 26; release in other formats is as yet unannounced.
“The Show” is directed by Mitch Jenkins, a photographer who’s collaborated with the “Watchmen” scribe for 12 years, including on several shorts that introduced some of its characters and ideas.

Antonia Campbell-Hughes is an actress who always makes fascinating choices, and often takes her, and the viewer, down dark paths into the shadows of society. Her latest is no different, as she plays A black-market medic in Colum Eastwood’s Black Medicine, and to mark its digital release this week, we had the pleasure of speaking to the actress, talking not only of this project but also her upcoming directorial debut It Is In All of Us, and the strength of collaborator Cosmo Jarvis. She also talks about one returning to comedy, which is of course where we first became aware of her talents, starring alongside Jack Dee in Lead Balloon.
Watch the full interview with Antonia Campbell-Hughes here:
Synopsis
A black-market medic carries out illegal operations for the criminal underworld. When she gives refuge to a young girl, she must choose between breaking her medical oath or crossing her ruthless employers.

Antonia Campbell-Hughes is terrific as an underworld medic in a noirish thriller that does its best to bypass its actors’ talents
A car slowly winds its way to the rooftop of a dimly lit multi-storey car, where the blonde driver steps out into the open air. The mood is sombre and eerie, as she gazes over a nocturnal cityscape. Only one thought is on her mind: to kill herself. This is the evocative, mysterious opening of Colum Eastwood’s Black Medicine, which would done a lot better to have maintained this scene’s exquisite noirish tone. Instead, a weakly predictable script means it quickly falls apart.
The woman is Jo (Antonia Campbell-Hughes), a freelance medical contractor who carries out shady medical procedures on behalf of crime bosses. Her suicide attempt is abandoned after a phone call that calls her to one such illegal operation. Though stoic in the face of mobsters,...

Paul Mescal emerged as one of the breakout stars of 2020 thanks to his performance in BBC and Hulu drama “Normal People.”
Ireland has seen a slew of such acting talent establish themselves in recent years, like Jessie Buckley with her star turn as the pregnant wife of a doomed Russian fireman in “Chernobyl” and Barry Keoghan, who won attention with lead roles in two 2017 films, “Killing of a Sacred Deer” and “Dunkirk.” Keoghan is now BAFTA-nominated for “Calm with Horses,” as is Niamh Algar, whose credits include “The Virtues” and “Raised by Wolves.” Elsewhere Domhnall Gleeson has made a name for himself as General Dux in recent “Star Wars” films, and also in “The Revenant” and “Ex Machina.”
Among the new generation of actors to watch are Fionn O’Shea, chosen as one of the Berlin Film Festival’s Shooting Stars of 2021. A “Normal People” alumnus, O’Shea will next be...

Ben Whishaw stars in Aneil Karia’s feature debut.
Vertigo Releasing has acquired UK and Ireland rights to thriller Surge, starring Ben Whishaw, from Protagonist Pictures.
The distributor hopes to release the film theatrically this Spring, dependent on the easing of pandemic restrictions.
Surge premiered at Sundance last year, where Whishaw won a special jury prize for his performance. It also marks the feature directorial debut of Aneil Karia, a Screen Star of Tomorrow in 2014, who more recently directed The Long Goodbye, a powerful short starring Riz Ahmed, which has been nominated for a BIFA and London Critics’ Circle award.
