Andrew takes a nerdy dive into the pop culture real and fictional that's made its way into the world of Red Dwarf...
Creating culture within science-fiction can be tricky. It’s potentially alienating, with the audience required to understand allusions without a reference point. Then again, if you throw in too many contemporary references, the future starts to look dated pretty quickly. Red Dwarf has walked that fine line, building its own stars and entertainment but chucking in the familiar, just to keep the world grounded. We take a look at humanity’s future culture as seen through the eyes of Lister, Rimmer, Cat, Kryten and Holly.

Film, opera and stage director known for La Reine Margot and his Ring cycle at Bayreuth in 1976
Unusually for a director, Patrice Chéreau, who has died of lung cancer aged 68, had more or less equally prestigious careers in the theatre, cinema and opera. Although he was internationally known from films such as La Reine Margot (1994) and his groundbreaking production of Richard Wagner's Ring cycle at Bayreuth (1976), he was renowned in his native France mostly for his "must-see" stage productions, especially during his long stints as co-director of the Théâtre National Populaire (1971-77) and the Théâtre des Amandiers (1982-90).
At these two subsidised theatres, in Villeurbanne, near Lyons, and Nanterre, in western Paris, respectively, Chéreau was able to introduce modern plays and bring a freshness to bear on the classics, particularly Marivaux, whose La Dispute he directed to acclaim at the Tnp in three different versions in the 1970s. At the Amandiers,...

Exclusive: ICM Partners has signed Alan Rickman. Based on the harsh reviews I’ve seen on the latest Die Hard, they should have found a way to let his character live in that first installment after Rickman delivered one of the best villain turns in an action movie. He’s been working up a storm anyway, on screen and stage. On stage, Rickman’s played Mark Antony opposite Helen Mirren’s Cleopatra in the Royal National Theatre’s production of Antony And Cleopatra, and he starred in Yukio Ninagawa’s Tango At The End Of Winter on London’s West End. His stage breakout came in Les Liasons Dangereuses and he most recently was onstage in the Theresa Rebeck play Seminar. Onscreen, Rickman next plays Ronald Reagan in the Lee Daniels-directed The Butler, along with the Patrice Leconte-directed A Promise, Randall Miller’s Cbgb, and the Michael Hoffman...

It has been said that if you want action films, look no further than Asian and American cinema; and no one makes a mystery or a satire like the British. The same can be said about the French when it comes to love stories, and while our Seine-strutting amis can also whip up slapstick comedies like few can (think Louis De Funes donning a beard, black hat, and impersonating a rabbi), they rarely fail to deliver captivating examples of both of these beloved genres.
Patrice Leconte, best known to American audiences for Monsieur Hire (1989) and The Hairdresser’s Husband (1990), gives us The Perfume of Yvonne (1994), now available on DVD from Severin Films. Based on the 1975 novel Villa Triste by Patrick Modiano, the film introduces us to Victor Chmara (Hippolyte Girardot of Manon of the Spring among many others), who is recalling the events that transpired in his...
