Sight and Sound, October 2025
The international film magazine – enriching readers' understanding of cinema since 1932.
In this issue: Cillian Murphy on his approach to acting, the importance of storytelling and his new film, Steve.
“When I was a young actor, I just wanted to play American and play English and not be restricted by my extraction or by my nationality. Whereas as I get older, I really want to tell our stories more and more. That’s just, I think, to do with age. But I also do think there is something in the air culturally, with film and with music. There seems to be a real energy around it. Not just flag waving, it’s trying to investigate our history and our place in the world. I think it’s all very healthy.”
Plus: Preview of this year’s London Film Festival, The business side of David Lynch, Klaus Kinski revisited, Religious films, Arjun Sajip speaks with Harris Dickinson about his directorial debut, Urchin. & More!
