International Insider: Series Mania Deep Dive; Vietnamese Cinema Shake-Up; Jonathan Glazer Backlash


Series Mania, Jonathan Glazer & Cannes Film Festival feature in this week's International Insider.

Europe on top as U.S. flails: No one is pretending that the current situation is easy — just ask the local freelance communities struggling for work — but Series Mania is a fine antidote in that it continues to nurture a reputation as the place where projects germinate. Competition series Apples Never Fall, meanwhile, is Annette Bening’s first major TV gig and will do battle later today with the likes of So Long, Marianne starring Alex Wolff, this week’s Global Breakout House of Gods and Chris Brancato’s Hotel Cocaine for that coveted prize. Oh, and if you have time to read one more thing, check this extraordinary rant from a man who’s career has run the full film-to-TV gamut, Peter Mullan, who roasted Kevin Spacey and “weird” Lord of the Rings fans in what was undoubtedly the most entertaining of the masterclasses.
