With just days to go until the 2024 US presidential election, Jim McClean and Alan Meban review Ali Abbasi’s ‘The Apprentice’, featuring Sebastian Stan as a young Donald Trump in the 70s and 80s under the mentorship of Jeremy Strong’s corrupt Roy Cohn.
The pair also take a look at Anna Kendrick’s directorial debut with ‘Woman of the Hour’, a taught thriller looking back at serial killer Rodney Alcala, his appearance on a TV dating game show, and the real lives of his female victims. Plus, a review of Despicable Me 4, some news about Robert Zemeckis’ latest, and a selection of highlights from this year’s Belfast Film Festival.
