Online film site launched
Another day, another on-line film streaming site launched: US-based ClickFlicks.net went live on 16 January 2006 with the aim of addressing "the plight of the independent filmmaker by providing an effective exhibition and distribution environment featuring only independently produced content".

Daniel Auteuil and Juliette Binoche in Hidden
Austrian director Michael Haneke's acclaimed French language 'thriller' Hidden (Caché), starring Daniel Auteuil and Juliette Binoche, which garnered five awards at the European Film Awards in Berlin on 3 December), opens today.

An important film and very interesting visually as well.
