Did audiences jump the gun on Alex Garland’s Warfare? Before it’s release, the brutally realist portrait of America’s war in Iraq was deemed just another army recruitment movie, but Hugo Emmerzael and Laura Gommans definitely don’t see it that way. Also: Gia Coppola’s The Last Showgirl gives Pamela Anderson a tender, neon-lit comeback, but did it warrant the awards hype it got? Plus, an interview with Carmen Chaplin on ‘Chaplin: Spirit of the Tramp’, her reframing of Charlie Chaplin’s legacy through his Roma heritage—an overdue look at the outsider beneath the bowler hat.
