An independent film magazine with stunning illustrated covers and in-depth features on cinema’s most exciting voices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIssue #114: Her Private Hell\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNicolas Winding Refn’s extravagant new picture — the realised vision of a death dream he experienced while his heart stopped for 20 minutes — is called \u003cem\u003eHer Private Hell\u003c\/em\u003e, and it is 100 per cent proof Refn. His first feature in a decade, following a sojourn making headfuck-inducing shows for major streamers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe film follows Elle (Sophie Thatcher), an actor with daddy issues being stalked by a strange serial killer with glowing red eyes called the Leatherman. Her knight in shining armour is a monosyllabic GI named Private K (Charles Melton), who lets his fists do the talking. All of this immaculately framed and choreographed action plays out under the 18-tog duvet of Pino Donaggio’s original score — commissioned after Refn cold-called the Italian maestro as a fan, resulting in some of the most emotional music of his career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the tradition of Alejandro Jodorowsky, \u003cem\u003eHer Private Hell\u003c\/em\u003e is a late-night cult hit in the making. LWL are long-time NWR boosters, having adorned previous covers with Drive (2011) and The Neon Demon (2016).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIn this issue\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast and crew interviews\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA global tour of giallo movies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA deep dive into Kenneth Anger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConversations with idiosyncratic genre filmmakers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe secret blueprints for a NWR-themed bar in Copenhagen, printed in full\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Cover\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fractured portrait of Sophie Thatcher is the work of \u003cstrong\u003eRacheal Bruce\u003c\/strong\u003e, an illustrator and educator from Saint Louis, Missouri. Using markers, coloured pencils and ink, her figure-focused images imbue the feeling that a fantastical unreality could exist in our physical world. Of the cover: “I had a blast working on this fractured portrait of Sophie Thatcher! Balancing the repetition of her features and the sharp, geometric shapes was like solving a puzzle.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little White Lies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58231257661823,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0906\/9183\/files\/p.001_Cover_NoSpine_01.jpg?v=1787219129","url":"https:\/\/coverstorybrighton.co.uk\/products\/little-white-lies-magazine-issue-114","provider":"Cover Story Brighton","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
