Anatomy Of A Fall: Trailer, certificate and where to watch
Gripping, Oscar-winning French courtroom thriller and family drama
15
When husband and father Samuel falls to his death at a secluded chalet in the French Alps, the police assume murder - and their prime suspect is Samuel's wife, Sandra. What actually happened, though? Was it even murder? And what does their blind 11-year-old son have to say about it?
Anatomy Of A Fall is one of those films you'll want to know as little as possible about before seeing, so we'll leave out the description of the plot, but be prepared to be utterly gripped by this riveting mix of courtroom thriller and family drama. It boasts a particularly strong, justly Oscar-nominated performance by Sandra Hüller (also in the Oscar-nominated The Zone Of Interest) as the wife, but there's not really a weak point in this movie except, arguably, the two-and-a-half hour running time.
Hüller's nomination was one of five potential Oscars for the film, although it ultimately came away with only one win - for Best Original Screenplay. (152 minutes)

I work in a doggy daycare and would never own these 10 breeds – they're stinky, unhealthy, fart & attack me at work
Plus, the breed which sheds fur everywhere RUFF TIMES I work in a doggy daycare and would never own these 10 breeds – they're stinky, unhealthy, fart & attack me at work Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IT can be hard to know which dog breed is best for you - but one professional has given her advice. May, who has worked at a doggy daycare for eight years, shared 10 breeds that she would never have herself. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 The dog professional said she would be put off by both English and French bulldogs Credit: TikTok/@notnutmeggyy 5 She also was against owning pitbulls Credit: TikTok/@notnutmeggyy On her @notnutmeggyy account, she shared a video which has racked up 46,000 likes, of the dogs that have some off-putting drawbacks, in her opinion. She added that her list is from her 'personal experience' and not every single dog from that breed shows the negative traits. The first up was an English bulldog, which, although it can be adorable, was one to avoid due to being 'stinky' and 'so unhealthy'. She added that the one had even tried to attack her recently which was another strike against the breed. More on dogs COCKA-POO! The six dog breeds most likely to get DIARRHOEA revealed by scientists French bulldogs were also on her banned list for being 'unhealthy' and 'overbred.' Next up was a German Shepherd, who made the list due to their 'crazy anxiety'. She added that she would not be able to keep up with their energy and she would only consider getting a senior one. Fourthly, was a Chow Chow, as she said they aren't great with anyone other than their owner. On a side note, she said their 'purple' tongues 'freak' her out. Pugs also made the list for 'not being healthy', barking too much, 'farting' too much and shedding. Laura Anderson shocks fans as she reveals her dog has BITTEN her daughter, 1, twice - but she's not giving him up Foxhounds were also a no-go, although she said she loves them other than the fact they are 'too loud.' Pitbulls, staffies and bullies also made the list as "aggression" is in their genes. In the UK, it is against the law to own certain types of dogs, including the Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino, and Fila Brasileiro. Additionally, XL Bully dogs are banned in England and Wales. The top 10 dog breeds the professional would never own MAY, who posts under @notnutmeggyy, and who has worked at a doggy daycare for eight years, shared 10 breeds that she would not own... English Bulldog French Bulldog German Shepherd Chow Chow Pug Foxhound Pitbull, Staffordshire Bull Terrier (Staffie), Bully Pomeranian Husky Jack Russell Terrier It is also illegal to sell, abandon, give away, or breed from any of these banned dogs. May added that pitbulls are nearly always on Apoquel or anxiety medication, and also have allergies. The next dog on her list was a Pomeranian as they can be 'aggressive' and 'way too loud.' 5 Pugs also made the list for 'not being healthy' and barking too much Credit: Getty 5 Huskies were found to be 'loud af' and the 'shedding goes crazy' Credit: Getty 5 She said she'd encountered a lot of 'aggressive' Jack Russells Credit: Getty Another gripe she had was how much grooming they require. Dog number nine was a husky as they are 'loud af', she doesn't live in a cold climate and 'shedding goes crazy.' Finally, she recommended people don't buy Jack Russells as she's encountered so many "aggressive" ones and also she 'doesn't want to play fetch 24/7.' While many people agreed with her selection, the list also ruffled a few feathers with dog owners. One said: 'As I sit here on the couch with my 3 pitties who have zero allergies and no aggressive tendencies.' Another added: 'I won't tolerate English bulldog slander! They're wonderful dogs.' And a third commented: 'Worth noting that the majority of these qualities aren't found in well-bred versions of these dogs.'

Israel set to deport eight activists, including French MEP, over Gaza boat
JERUSALEM, June 12 (Reuters) - Eight pro-Palestinian activists including a French member of the European Parliament will soon be forcibly deported from Israel, three days after the Israeli navy prevented them from sailing into Gaza, their legal advisers said on Thursday. Four other members of the 12-strong crew aboard the charity vessel, including Swedish campaigner Greta Thunberg, agreed to leave Israel voluntarily on Tuesday, hours after the navy had brought them ashore. The other eight crew refused to leave, accusing Israel of acting illegally, and have been held in a detention centre while an Israeli court reviewed their legal status. However, Israeli rights group Adalah, which has provided the activists with legal assistance, said the group had lost their battle against repatriation. French MEP Rima Hassan and five other activists have been taken to Tel Aviv airport and will be flown out of the country in the next 24 hours, Adalah said in a statement. The remaining two crew members will be expelled on Friday afternoon. "Their continued detention and forced deportation are unlawful and a part of Israel's ongoing violations of international law," Adalah said in a statement. There was no immediate confirmation from Israel which earlier this week dismissed the Gaza-bound sea mission as a pro-Hamas publicity stunt. "Greta and her friends brought in a tiny amount of aid on their celebrity yacht. It did not help the people of Gaza. This was nothing but a ridiculous gimmick," Foreign Minister Gideon Saar told reporters on Tuesday. Israel has imposed a naval blockade on Gaza since Hamas took control of the coastal enclave in 2007. It tightened its grip significantly after Hamas-led militants rampaged through southern Israel on October 7, 2023, killing more than 1,200 people and taking 251 hostages, by Israeli tallies. Israel's retaliatory offensive against Hamas has since killed nearly 55,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza health officials, and reduced much of the territory to a wasteland.
