Petition calls for unified EU vision on copyright and culture.
Cannes Palme d’Or contenders Fatih Akin, Michael Haneke, Michel Hazanavicius have joined 80 top European film-makers in a petition calling for a unified European Union vision on copyright and culture in the digital age.

Paul Verhoeven’s new-ish feature, Tricked — now hitting domestic shores more than three years after its international debut — is among the stranger exercises we’ve seen from genre cinema in recent years, and I doubt anyone would have my reaction if they were only treated to the final work. Here is a work of many, many contradictions, so numerous that after a while they’re practically stacked on top of each other: thinly plotted and straightforward, yet stuffed to the gills with disturbances and double-crosses; rather chaste, yet willing to indulge any opportunity to feature nudity or states of undress; clearly made for little money, yet composed with an eye for location that lends it great atmosphere. These traits signal inanity, not innovation, but could be explained by a second project — one that isn’t the Dutchman’s own work, yet still comes with your purchase.

The genesis of "Tricked" sounds like something Lars Von Trier might have dreamed up as part of "The Five Obstructions." Paul Verhoeven was commissioned to make a user-generated film, the first four minutes of which were devised by the Dutch director; then the public was asked to write the next four minutes of script. From the submissions, one script would be chosen as the next segment before another call out was made, and the process would continue until there was enough material for an hourlong television film. Talk about high concept. Of course, the plan was a bit too neat, and with way too many scripts being submitted and none being the perfect four-minute continuation, the project evolved. The basic concept remained the same: The public would decide the twists and turns of the story, but after each four-minute segment was released and the public was asked to pen new segments and plot twists,...
