Der französische Präsident Emmanuel Macron ist auf Staatsbesuch in Deutschland. Dabei äußerte er sich auch zum deutsch-französischen Sender Arte, den er gerne weiter ausgebaut sehen würde. Auf der Social-Media-Plattform X schrieb er: „Frankreich und Deutschland wollen Arte zur Plattform aller Europäer machen, mit Inhalten für alle.“
Dazu postete Macron einen knapp 30-sekündigen Trailer, der Highlights des deutsch-französischen Senders zeigte und mit der Tagline schloss: Arte.tv – die europäische Plattform. Macron, der dieses Mal kein Fischbrötchen mit Kanzler Olaf Scholz essen musste, sondern lieber mit Bundespräsident Frank-Walter Steinmeier kickerte, führte diese Idee beim Staatsbankett aus.
Macron will, dass zusätzliche Koproduktionen für Arte aus dem europäischen Budget finanziert werden. Heute werden Arte-Inhalte teils schon in sechs verschiedenen Sprachen angeboten. Neben Deutsch und Französisch sind das Englisch,...

King Charles III showed off his German speaking skills during a royal engagement in Berlin on Wednesday.
He switched between German and English during his speech at a state banquet thrown by German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
Charles discussed the special bond between the two countries and being thankful for not being left to have a “dinner for one” — referencing a British comedy sketch that’s popular in the country.
“Over all these years, and in so many ways, I have been struck by the warmth of the friendship between our nations and by the vitality of our partnership in countless areas.”

Killing Eve star Sandra Oh has been spotted at Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, one of very few TV personalities to be invited.
Oh was seen in the past couple of hours or so and Twitter has been abuzz with the arrival of the Grey’s Anatomy star.
Oh was appointed an Order of Canada as an Officer a few months ago and was dressed in black with a Canadian badge pinned in front, according to the BBC.

The honor is the second highest that can be received in Canada, a Commonwealth country, and Oh was granted it due to an “artistic career filled with memorable stage, television and film roles in Canada and abroad”. She played Dr Cristina Yang in Grey’s Anatomy for a decade, winning a stack of awards, and has more recently been lauded for her role as Eve in Killing Eve.

President Joe Biden has arrived in London, where he will join other world leaders at the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II on Monday.
The prime ministers of Canada, Australia and New Zealand are already in the UK for the ceremony, but the guest list for the funeral of the world’s longest-reigning monarch is proving to be controversial.
While many of the 500 names of heads of state and foreign dignitaries are as expected – French President Emmanuel Macron, Italian President Sergio Mattarella and Germany’s Frank-Walter Steinmeier all due to attend – there are some names that have caused a diplomatic headache.
Representatives from Russia, Belarus, Myanmar, Syria, Venezuela and Afghanistan have not been invited, while Iran, North Korea (Dprk) and Nicaragua have only been invited to send ambassadors instead of heads of state.
China’s President Xi Jinping was invited, but it will be his Vice President Wang Qishan who attends in his place.

Presidents, government ministers, senior United Nations leadership, Unicef Ambassadors, partners, and children and young people gathered at events around the world to commemorate Unicef’s 75th anniversary last week.
“Since its founding 75 years ago in the aftermath of World War II, Unicef has been working for every child, whoever they are and wherever they live,” said Henrietta Fore, Unicef Executive Director. “Today, the world is facing not one but a series of compounding crises, threatening to undermine decades of progress for children. This is a time for marking Unicef’s history, but it is also a time for action by ensuring vaccines for all, revolutionizing learning, investing in mental health, ending discrimination, and addressing the climate crisis.”
To mark the occasion, Unicef held its inaugural Global Forum for Children and Youth (CY21), co-hosted by the governments of Botswana and Sweden. More than 230 speakers from over 80 countries participated in the event,...

German Films, a body that promotes Teutonic talent and content, staged a panel discussion on “breaking boundaries” during the Berlin Film Festival, as part of the fest’s Drama Series Days section. Taking part were three of the participants of German Films’ 2019 Face to Face program – Fahri Yardim, Luise Heyer, and Maria Dragus. For all three breakthrough roles in independent films led to parts in major TV series, which have given them an international platform for their talent.
Dragus’ big break came early, when she appeared as a child actor in Michael Haneke’s film “The White Ribbon.” This took her to Cannes, where the film won the Palme d’Or, and the Oscars, where it was nominated for best foreign-language film. Dragus also won best supporting actress at the German Film Awards.
That success launched her acting career, which has included a recent role in a Hollywood movie, “Mary Queen of Scots,...

When “Brecht” launched at the Berlinale, with a premiere attended by Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the president of Germany, it was the fruition of long-gestating project for German director Heinrich Breloer. He had met the associates of the German playwright decades earlier, but only now has used his trademark drama-meets-documentary approach to filmmaking to make a biopic of Brecht. As buyers come on board the Bavaria Fiction-produced series and it finds international homes, Breloer talks about making the miniseries.
Was “Brecht” many years in the making?
Back in 1977 I met Paula Banholzer, Brecht’s first love, and some of his friends from his early days. I made a documentary film about Brecht’s early years entitled ‘Bi and Bidi in Augsburg.’ Since then, while making a range of other films I found myself thinking about this story again and again.

The first international buyers have begun snapping up “Brecht,” a miniseries on the influential German playwright that will play in the Berlinale Special section of the film festival. The two-part project blends drama and documentary forms to tell Bertolt Brecht’s life story. Written and directed by Heinrich Breloer, it stars both Tom Schilling (“Never Look Away”) and Burghart Klaussner (“The People vs. Fritz Bauer”) as Brecht at different ages.
The show had its world premiere Saturday, with Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the president of Germany, in attendance.
Bavaria Media Intl. has sealed pre-sales with buyers in Scandinavia and Southern Europe. Danish pubcaster Dr has bought the miniseries, as has its Finnish counterpart, Yle.
In Spain, it has gone to streaming service Filmin. “’Brecht’ is an important piece of work that helps us to understand the creative process of one of Europe’s brightest minds in the 20th century,” said the on-demand service’s co-founder and editor-in-chief,...

The British royal family appears to be having a blast on their tour of Poland and Germany this week. On Wednesday, Prince William and Kate Middleton touched down in Berlin with their two children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, which immediately resulted in a handful of precious moments. While Prince George flashed his signature unimpressed face for the cameras, Princess Charlotte, who gave her first diplomatic handshake, was preoccupied with her bouquet of flowers. After putting their little tots down, the royal pair visited the Brandenburg Gate and the Holocaust Memorial before heading over to the Strassenkinder, a charity which supports young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, where they offered warm hugs to a group of children. And they didn't stop there. Later in evening, the couple met with President Frank-Walter Steinmeier at the Bellevue Palace Gardens, where they held a garden party complete with champagne in honor of Queen Elizabeth II's birthday.

Turner Classic Movies' 2017 Gay Pride film series comes to a close this evening and tomorrow morning, Thursday–Friday, June 29–30, with the presentation of seven movies, hosted by TV interviewer Dave Karger and author William J. Mann, whose books include Wisecracker: The Life and Times of William Haines and Behind the Screen: How Gays and Lesbians Shaped Hollywood, 1910-1969. Among tonight's movies' Lgbt connections: Edward Albee, Tony Richardson, Evelyn Waugh, Tab Hunter, John Gielgud, Roddy McDowall, Linda Hunt, Harvey Fierstein, Rudolf Nureyev, Christopher Isherwood, Joel Grey, and Tommy Kirk. Update: Coincidentally, TCM's final 2017 Gay Pride celebration turned out to be held the evening before a couple of international events – and one non-event – demonstrated that despite noticeable progress in the last three decades, gay rights, even in the so-called “West,” still have a long way to go. In Texas, the state's – all-Republican – Supreme Court decided that married gays should be treated as separate and unequal. In...
