A quieter week this week, or so I thought until the last 24 hours.  Here’s what we found out this week.  THE CHILDHOOD OF A LEADER:  Monday in Australia seems to be The Childhood of a Leader news day. Not sure whether this is 100% accurate, but I came across a mention of an 11 August UK release date. Time will tell I guess. It is having it’s UK premiere though in July at the Edinburgh Film Festival.  How exciting for Jules.  The film is now screening and/or competing in 7 film festivals with the addition of Switzerland, Russia, Scotland and Spain (Majorca).  I guess that explains the possible release date for Spain that I found on Filmin seeing as the Atlantida Film Festival is both online and physical. What about the bonanza of stills – I’m going to ignore that spoilerish one *zipslips*. Thanks Sally & Posh. I tweeted a reminder that tickets are now available for the NY premiere. I updated the Champs-Élysées Film Festival post as they updated their Facebook with an event page for Brady’s Masterclass which also confirmed that it will be followed with a screening of the film (although we already knew the date of time of the screening). LIFE: Netflix will be screening the film in the US from 29 June.  I tweeted that Life is now available on Filmin (Spain) and if you are a subscriber you can see Cosmopolis, Little Ashes and Bel Ami. LOST CITY OF Z: So many of us vying for that job, but Sue I’d love to be paid for just staring. In fact I think we could all just be volunteers for that role. No salary required. QUEEN OF THE DESERT: I tweeted a link to the subtitled Thai trailer. Amazon Italy have finally updated with preorder links.  They also confirmed the July release date I posted about a few weeks ago. I updated the movie reviews as some Australian reviews are trickling in plus how could I go past comments like “[Pattinson] in a fairly small but effective role”.  We should see more coming through next week as there is one more media screening early in the week. I love that Transmission Films has gotten into the QotD spirit with their Twitter and Facebook logos. Fans in Plymouth (UK) are being treated to a free screening in July. I love free screenings *cough*. We also found out that the film will close the Atlantida Film Festival in Spain – that’s two Robert movies at the one festival.  See sometimes patience does pay off. #WeGOForRob:  How lovely of Rob to say thank you. DIOR: Wowza those pics in UHQ – thank you Posh.  Thank you! And if they weren’t good enough we got the BTS video and then a slightly extended version. I agree Sue why don’t they just give us the entire film they did on the day – you know they want to.  Happy Days! IN OTHER NEWS:  Simon Emmett’s photoshoot is on my list of faves (well all photoshoots really), so I love it when I come across untagged versions. Michelle is keeping us up to date on Robert’s films screening on FOXTEL. Lakeshore Records did a Throwback Thursday to The Rover soundtrack and Maps to the Stars is screening on Cinemax|HBO from today until 30 June – which is good considering what a small release it had. Well I think that’s it for this week – hope next week brings us a few more good surprises. I love Robert surprises. Until then …

It is weeks like this that Maria’s summaries are so very useful as my brain got fried from the Dior BTS and anything that came before it has been obliterated
