In the Spierig Brothers’ Predestination, Ethan Hawke plays a nameless temporal agent tasked with preventing a crime which occurred 15 years in the past. He travels back in time to numerous periods throughout the 20th century, where he works not only to stop a serial bomber from killing thousands of New Yorkers in the early 1970s, but to paradoxically ensure his own existence. The film is a cool, mindbending thriller anchored by subtle, shifting performances from Hawke and newcomer Sarah Snook. And unlike so many sci-fi literary adaptations, Predestination is remarkably faithful to its source material: a Robert Heinlein short story titled “—All You Zombies—” which was written more than 50 years ago.

Marion Cotillard loves to explore. The French actress, who stars in Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne’s Two Days, One Night, likens acting’s preparation process to mining for gold. “One of my favorite parts is when you start feeling the character in your body,” Cotillard says. “When I start feeling [that], the way I walk, the way I talk, the way I breathe becomes her. And then I see myself disappearing.” More

Joe Hill
When he started his career in fiction, writer Joe Hill didn’t want to coast in on his literary pedigree. As the son of author Stephen King, Hill worried publishers would overlook his work and only see the family name. It was important for him that he break in like any other writer, and for his writing to be judged by its own merits. He adopted the name Joe Hill—an abbreviated version of his given name, Joseph Hillstrom King—and honed his skills by writing and submitting works under the unassuming nomme de plume. It was a secret he managed to keep for more than a decade. Hill’s first two books—the short story collection 20th Century Ghosts, and debut novel Heart-Shaped Box—were published to numerous accolades before his identity was eventually outed. More
