Cannes: Competition Film ‘Sound of Falling' Gets Rave Reviews, Tepid Ovation
Sound of Falling, the second feature from 41-year-old German filmmaker Mascha Schilinski, had its world premiere on Wednesday afternoon at the Grand Théâtre Lumière as part of the Cannes Film Festival, where it is playing in competition, and was greeted with a four-minute standing ovation. Co-written with Louise Peter, the German-language drama follows four girls — Alma (Hanna Heckt), Erika (Lea Drinda), Angelika (Lena Urzendowsky) and Lenka (Laeni Geiseler) — who live, at different points over the course of a century, on the same farm in northern Germany.

It is still seeking U.S. distribution, and interest in it amongst top-tier distributors is said to be strong. The Hollywood Reporter's review raves that Sound of Falling 'resembles nothing you've quite seen before, making you question the very notion of what a movie can be,' and further describes the film as 'a transfixing chronicle' and 'cinematic tone poem,' likening it to Terrence Malick's 2011 Palme d'Or winner-turned-best picture Oscar nominee The Tree of Life, 'although this is Malick by way of Jane Campion and Michael Haneke.'

'The Goonies' Cast Debunks the Biggest Rumor About the Film as They Reunite Ahead of Its 40th Anniversary — Can You Guess What It Is?
Washington, D.C., got a visit from the Goon(ies) squad! The Goonies stars Sean Astin, Corey Feldman, Martha Plimpton, Kerri Green, Robert Davi and Joe Pantoliano reunited in the nation's capital for Awesome Con on Saturday, April 5, ahead of the beloved 1985 film's 40th anniversary in June. During the 'Hey You Guys! The Goonies Reunion' panel discussion and fan Q&A, which was moderated by PEOPLE's Breanne L. Heldman, Astin, 54, debunked the long-standing rumor that the child stars saw One-Eyed Willy's pirate ship for the first time while filming, and that their reactions captured on film were them reacting in real life. "I was sort of offended that they had that idea, that they wouldn't let the kids see the pirate ship, so that they could capture their real reaction. Like, what? We don't know how to do real? We did real reactions all the time," he said. "But I remember wanting to perform in such a way, because I had had a sneak peek of it," Astin continued. "So I wanted to perform in a way that really made them think that they had captured the honest reactions, so they would for 40 years be like, 'Oh, we got these kids to do this thing!' " Related: 'The Goonies' Cast: Where Are They Now? Plimpton, 54, chimed in, adding, however, "I hadn't seen it. My performance was honest." As Pantoliano, 73, asked The Real O'Neals star, "How many takes of your reaction did they do?" she responded, "One. [That's] all they needed, baby." Feldman, 53, meanwhile, recalled "the coolest thing" about filming the memorable scenes: "the pool." "The water that we were in, all the way from the ship to the waterslide — get this — was heated," he explained. "It was a heated pool. That was badass." Feldman, Astin and Green, 58, have seen a lot of each other and their fellow Goonies recently. Feldman and Green joined Josh Brolin, Jeff Cohen and the film's screenwriter, Chris Columbus, for Ke Huy Quan's hand and footprint ceremony in front of the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles on Feb. 3.

"We hope that everybody has a great adventure. Keep the adventure alive," he continued, as Plimpton added, "I think [fans are] going to see The Goonies 2, whether we're in it or not. I think that's pretty obvious. At least, I hope [they] will." Read the original article on People
