SWISS-Austrian director Edward Berger stormed into Hollywood in 2022 with his Oscar-winning epic All Quiet On The Western Front.

It was not long before he followed it up with his papal thriller Conclave, which saw a resurgence of interest around Pope Francis's death.

With such a strong track record, film fans have been eager to catch his latest offering, Ballad Of A Small Player, starring Colin Farrell and Tilda Swinton.

The Netflix psychological thriller follows the Irish star's unnamed sleazy crook, parading himself in the glitzy casinos of Macau as the red velvet-encrusted English aristocrat Lord Doyle.
