• Working Girl at 30: the workplace comedy that changed the game - 17 December
• The 1988 tale of a Staten Island woman making waves in the big city was a major hit and scored six Oscar nods, but how do its sexual politics hold up?When Melanie Griffith won the part of underestimated Staten Island secretary Tess McGill in Working Girl, two facts were true. In her short lifetime, womanhood had transformed. The year she was born, fewer than one in eight married mothers were employed; in 1988, that percentage was well over half. And Griffith ? a twice-married mother herself, who would soon wed Don Johnson (again) ? needed the job. Not any job. This one. Related: Working Girl had power suits and female ambition. But where?s the modern equivalent? Continue reading...
• Yael Stone alleges Geoffrey Rush acted inappropriately towards her in dressing room, a claim he denies - 16 December

• The 50 best films of 2018: No 5 ? Private Life - 17 December
• Kathryn Hahn and Paul Giamatti were excellent as a sympathetic New York couple struggling to have a baby in Tamara Jenkins?s intensely personal dramaSee the rest of the UK countdownSee the rest of the US countdownThe best culture of 2018After her intriguing, if flawed, sibling drama The Savages in 2007, Tamara Jenkins has returned with another intensely personal film. It is a triumph. She shows an uncanny knack of absorbing and transforming her own experiences into a compelling movie. Private Life is superbly acted and written, giving the audience vivid access to a painful yet funny human drama.Kathryn Hahn, a seasoned comedy-character turn, is an absolute revelation in the demanding role of Rachel, a New York literary author who has critical prestige but not much in the way of sales. Her partner is Richard, a former off-Broadway theatre director who has retired from this business, without much regret, and now makes a living selling his pickles at artisanal markets. This is a role made for Paul Giamatti, and it is a pleasure to see him in a challenging part to be compared with those in the movies that made his name: American Splendor and Sideways.

• 'Distressing and depressing': stars bemoan Brexit at European film awards - 16 December

It worked very well, I?m going to take that idea back to the United Kingdom,? he said. Continue reading...

• Nicolas Roeg remembered by Donald Sutherland - 16 December
• 15 August 1928 ? 23 November 2018
  The actor who starred in Roeg?s 1973 masterpiece, Don?t Look Now, remembers a visionary director, and cinematographer, who changed his life for ever
  
  ? Judy Blame remembered by Boy George
  ? Read the Observer?s obituaries of 2018 in full hereI was filming in Florida in the spring of 1972. My agent phoned to tell me a fellow named Nic Roeg wanted to speak with me about filming Daphne du Maurier?s Don?t Look Now. I didn?t know him. Didn?t know the story. So I bought a book of her stories and read it, read the script and then I screened Walkabout and Performance, the film he?d co-directed with Donald Cammell. I liked everything.They gave me his phone number and I called him in London. He answered. There was a lot of background barking. A cacophonous chorus of Jack Russells. He and I talked through it. Seriously. Deliberately. Then I told him that I didn?t think the story?s end was correct, that in my life I?d had a lot of experience with extrasensory perception and I didn?t think it should be used as an instrument of terror, that John, the character he wanted me to play, should not be killed by it, but saved by it. I believed I?d made my point and finished talking. Continue reading...
