Unkind Rewind: Michael Haneke's critique of screen violence FUNNY GAMES has been remade for the US. Catherine Wheatley asks if it's still effective. Plus Sheila Johnston talks to Haneke and Michael Atkinson looks at family-in-peril cinema.

Berlinale 2008: You Can't Always Get What You Want: It was a weak competition in which the artistry of Mike Leigh and Errol Morris raised the stakes - but did the unseasonable sunshine turn the jurors' heads, asks Nick James.

Reasons to Be Cheerful: You don't have to be a pessimist to enjoy the drollery of admaster Roy Andersson's YOU, THE LIVING, but it probably helps. Here he talks patience and booze with Roger Clarke.

Mizoguchi Kenji: Artist Of The Floating World: The Japanese master is best known for tragic period dramas such as SANSHO DAYO and UGETSU MONOGATARI, which stirred western critics in the 1950s. But have his many films that comment directly on contemporary Japan been swept under the carpet, asks Alexander Jacoby.

Rushes: London's Lesbian & Gay Film Festival, Bela Tarr on Miklos Jancso, Rotterdam 2008, Harmony Korine on MR. LONELY, TV & film book reviews and more.
