Doc following the Libertines star, made by his wife, is unsparing in showing his struggles with drug addiction but shies away from other personal stories
As Spinal Tap’s David St Hubbins once argued, it is possible to have too much perspective; but perhaps there isn’t quite enough perspective in this documentary about the iconic rock star and songwriter Pete Doherty (who in the title goes by the more mature “Peter”), former frontman of the Libertines and Babyshambles. The film is directed by Doherty’s wife Katia DeVidas, although the actual story of their relationship or any of Doherty’s previous relationships does not feature here; of course, it could be that Doherty and DeVidas understandably reject the tabloid prurience associated with that whole subject. The film also passes in silence over the tragic case of Mark Blanco, who in 2006 died after falling from the balcony of an east...

“Hesitation Wound” and “Hollywoodgate” were named winners at the Zurich Film Festival, as the 19th edition of the Swiss festival came to a close.
Selman Nacar’s drama “Hesitation Wound” impressed the Feature Film Competition jury.
“Moral issues are a frequent underlying theme in many films, but the dilemma facing the main character in this film is really strongly felt here,” argued the jury, which comprised president Anton Corbijn, Finola Dwyer, Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre, Juho Kuosmanen and Bryce Nielsen.
Praising “wonderful” Tülin Özen, cast as a lawyer struggling at home and at work – “a woman forever on the verge of either breakthrough or breakdown,” wrote Variety – they added: “It’s a film that stayed with the majority of the jury throughout the festival and even though it was a fight with two other contenders, it became our favorite. Selman Nacar, thank you so much for this delicious film.”

The first time Katia deVidas filmed Peter Doherty was in November 2006, at a Babyshambles concert in Paris. Over the next decade, deVidas would record more than 200 hours of footage of the musician — who ushered in a new era of British rock in the early 2000s as the co-frontman of the Libertines — capturing him at his best amid floods of creativity, but also at his worst as he tumbled further into drug addiction.
As the two grew closer, forging a friendship that would eventually turn into love, deVidas realized she had an incredible story to tell. That footage became “Peter Doherty: Stranger in My Own Skin,” a raw and brutally honest portrait of an artist and addict, which premieres Friday night at the Zurich Film Festival.
“I knew that Peter had a life that was really out of the ordinary. It was a very intense, discombobulated world — so rich, so interesting.

Pete Doherty made a rare TV appearance on Channel 4 comedy talk show The Last Leg on Friday night (24 February).
The Libertines frontman, 43, performed The Pogues’ 1985 classic “Dirty Old Town”, changing the one of the lyrics to “brudne stare misto”, which is Ukrainian for “dirty old town”.
At the end of the song, he smiled and shouted “slava Ukraini!”, meaning “glory to Ukraine”.
Friday was the one-year anniversary of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. The number of Ukrainian civilians killed in the war with Russia could be as high as 100,000, with both sides suffering tens of thousands of military casualties.
Millions of Ukrainians have either been displaced or left homeless 12 months on since Russian tanks rolled across the border.
During Doherty’s appearance on the show, he also told an anecdote about hosting two Russian artists at his London home.
“When they were in London I put them up,” he said.

Pete Doherty is releasing a documentary chronicling the addiction issues he experienced at the height of his fame.
The 90-minute film, Peter Doherty: Stranger In My Own Skin, comes from more than 200 hours of footage filmed over a 10-year period by his partner, the director-musician Katia deVidas.
Launching at the Cannes event Mipcom, the documentary will explore the former Libertines frontman’s addictions to heroin, crack cocaine and ketamine.
Doherty said: “The talent is the man and comes from the man and comes from the artist and doesn’t come from the drugs, and has never come from the drugs.
“Part of the fun and the challenge of creating is to create in spite of circumstances, so, in spite of being a drug addict, or in spite of being clean. I will create.”
DeVidas said: “The camera captures souls, looks, truths – mostly lost ones, along with intense moments of the sort that are usually hidden.

Warner Bros. is releasing a new 40th Anniversary Blu-ray Edition of Stanely Kubrick's classic film A Clockwork Orange on May 31st. This movie was made back in 1971, and it's so insane that to this day people that see it for the first time are still shocked by what they are seeing. This is a disturbingly great film, and if for some reason you haven't seen it yet then you really need to check it out.
Here are a few clips from the behind the scene special features that are going to be included in this new Blu-ray release that give you a taste of what you have to look forward to from this blu-ray:
And here's the trailer for the blu-ray:
Here are the details and specs of the new Blu-ray release:
Stomping, whomping, stealing, singing, tap-dancing, violating. Hooligan Alex (Malcolm McDowell) has a good time – at the tragic expense of others.

Warner Home Video is readying the Blu-ray debut of A Clockwork Orange, coming in late May, and released a new trailer for your entertainment.
Here’s the official release:
Burbank, Calif., March 31, 2011 – Stanley Kubrick was one of the great filmmakers of our time and his profound influence on motion pictures continues to this day. His 1971 film, A Clockwork Orange, starring Malcolm McDowell, portrayed an oppressive lawless society where man was reduced to little more than a machine. The film introduced into popular culture the concept of “ultra-violence,” as singing, tap-dancing, derby-topped hooligan Alex (McDowell) has a “good time” – at the tragic expense of others. His journey from amoral punk to brainwashed proper citizen and back again forms the dynamic arc of Kubrick’s future-shock vision of Anthony Burgess’ novel.
This was a powerful film made by a director at the height of his artistry and its impact generated worldwide controversy.

On May 31st, Warner Home Video releases a special edition of Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange on Blu-ray to commemorate the film's 40th Anniversary. It's a big year for anniversaries for classic films, but this has got to be one of the best (sorry The Ten Commandments and Ben Hur). Along with the Blu-ray release, Malcolm McDowell will be doing a tour of sorts, kicking off with a screening of the film at the Cannes Film festival, followed by a screening and panel discussion at the New York Museum of Modern Art, and then closing with a special presentation at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
For the special trailer, a list of extra features on the upcoming disc (including two new featurettes), and more, just hit the jump.
