The "Compliance" director's latest film is a minimalist chamber drama with only three actors in its cast.

Director Craig Zobel's followup to 2012's "Compliance," Z for Zachariah is a solid relationship drama disguised as post-apocalyptic tale. The events of the film, which take place in the wake of an unspecified nuclear disaster, are defined more by its astute observations of human behavior in the face of devastating loss than any of science fiction conceits. With visuals more focused on lush New Zealand landscapes than abandoned architecture, Zobel and screenwriter Nissar Modi treat the material based on the young adult novel by Robert C. OBrien with an accomplished tone of rugged futurism.

However, reminders of the fictional backdrop are reinforced by the recurring appearances of an advanced HAZMAT suit, starting with the first scene. The character shown scavenging for supplies in a poisoned ghost town is revealed to be Ann Burden, who self-sustains on her father's farm in a beautiful, uninfected valley. Ann is a strong-willed, street-smart woman played with tough honesty by cast MVP Margot Robbie (of "Wolf of Wall Street" fame). Thanks to Robbie, Ann's formidable survival instincts are never obscured by her own character's sweet-natured religious sensibility or by her occasional lapses into human folly. The film suffers most when she's relegated to the background.

When Ann unexpectedly comes across a strapping young fellow survivor named Loomis (Chiwetel Ejiofor), she rescues and nurses him back to health after realizing that he has inadvertently washed himself with infected water. Loomis recovers slowly, and eventually finds himself in a position to offer Ann help with his scientific and technological insights. Ejiofor makes for a compatible match with Robbie, and their chemistry together carefully molded in shades of emotional nuance maintains a compelling hold. The textured approach to each character's behavior deepens an otherwise straightforward narrative. During the first half of the film, their relationship steadily grows more complex, and culminates with a convincing romance.

But progression of their mutual attraction is complicated with the sudden appearance of yet another fellow survivor, this one named Caleb (Chris Pine). Loomis immediately feels jealousy toward Caleb's attributes he's a smooth talking religious hunk who's more brawn than brain. At this point, the focus of the film shifts somewhat abruptly to a competition of masculinity that Caleb eagerly plays, as the emerging love triangle becomes increasingly difficult for all parties to ignore.

The twist arrives to the detriment of the film, given the agreeably more subdued approach to its characters' detailed interactions that came earlier. Although Ann remains at the center of the triangle, the story gets away from her. It doesn't help that Pine's character receives the least substantive development into a character, which is a problem for making the rivalry fully convincing (at times, it's hard not to think of his recent tongue-in-cheek turn in "Into the Woods"). Still, in spite of the lesser material, Pine does a fine job at playing the male tempter to Ann and the animalistic threat to Loomis.

With only three actors onscreen, "Z for Zachariah" owes much to its visual appeal. The photography by cinematography Tim Orr (a David Gordon Green regular) plays up the stillness of the landscape, while the film's unfussy conclusion punctuates its admirably minimalist approach. Even as the storys increased tension weakens its subtleties, Zobel's sensitive handling of the emotional tone throughout grounds the film with an overarching realism despite the far-fetched setting.

"Z for Zachariah" premiered this weekend at the Sundance Film Festival. Lionsgate will release it theatrically later this year.

The last time we saw The Jetsons, the family from the '60s cartoon set in the future, on the big screen was way back in 1990. 25 years later, and it looks like Warner Bros. is ready to give the series another chance, as Variety has reported that the studio just hired writer Matt Lieberman to put together a new script. A live-action Jetsons movie is said to have talked about for years, but this is believed to be a different project and will most certainly be animated.

The original Jetsons cartoon show only lasted for one full season starting in 1962, resulting in only 24 episodes. The show became iconic of the era's ideas about futurism, filled with flying cars, moving sidewalks, and talking robots. A few more seasons were released in the '80s as part of a reboot, eventually followed by the 1990 movie.

As of now there's little details about the plot of the new Jetsons flick, leaving fans wondering if the show could be moved even further into the future that what was imagined in the '60s, or if it could just take place in the same general time, but feature different design aesthetics. Similarly, no names have been mentioned as potential directors.

If that isn't enough retro-cartoon goodness for you, a new Scoobie-Doo movie is being produced as well, also animated and featuring contribution from Lieberman. That project has been reported to be further in development, so it will probably hit screens before a new Jetsons feature. Now we just have ponder about whether these old-school animated characters should be presented in 2D or 3D.

Deadline first broke the story last night that Warner Bros. has hired Matt Lieberman to pen the script for a feature length animated version of The Jetsons. The big question: Will it be 2D or 3D animation?

We've been hearing for nearly a decade that a live-action Jetsons movie is in the works. And Jetsons nerds have been understandably nervous about how the First Family of Futurism might translate into flesh and blood. But they can breathe a sigh of relief now that Warner Bros. is reportedly back to working on The Jetsons as an animated project.

Lieberman is relatively new to Hollywood and most of his work has yet to see the screen. But he's sold a number of scripts that are currently in production, including a reboot of the Short Circuit franchise. The new Jetsons movie doesn't have a director yet.

The Jetsons lasted just one season during its original run in 1962-63. But those 24 episodes would play on constant repeat during Saturday morning cartoons, becoming firmly planted into the brains of at least three generations that grew up dreaming about our techno-utopian future.

The Jetson family would get a reboot in the mid-1980s for a few more seasons, but those episodes are widely considered to be inferior to the original show. There was also a feature length animated movie in 1990.

There's no word yet if this new version of The Jetsons will get any updates that catapult them even further into the future. Nor whether we'll see any other time-traveling cameos by that family from Bedrock. But with so many rumors of a Jetsons reboot that never panned out, we can't count our robotic chickens before they're hatched. This project still has the possibility of getting derailed.

Five years into its Singapore experiment, St Jerome's Laneway Festival now appears a truly local fixture. Under looming thunderstorms that never quite broke, a sold out crowd of 13,000 showed up to The Meadows at Gardens By The Bay on Saturday to cheer on an eclectic array of artists from across the globe.

Wandering around the lush surrounds, culture shock came in waves. Though laneways are mostly absent from The Meadows' sprawling gardens, seeing the familiar festival signage draped against the dazzling Singapore skyline prompted a dissonant shock of recognition. So too the many Australian bands on the bill.

While Melbourne's reigning R&B crooner Chet Faker would draw one of the biggest crowds on the day to his evening slot, Perth act Pond introduced themselves early. Resplendent in tiny silver shorts, singer Nick Allbrook turned himself in knots throughout a raw set of psychedelic pop, with the band's loose larrikinism wildly exotic in the humid afternoon. "We're so happy to be playing in Singapore in this beautiful setting" said drummer Jay Watson by way of introduction. "This next song's called Heroic Shart."

While many fans brought their own blankets to lay out on the grass, even the unsettled climate was catered for. Fat drops of rain come down at Pond's finale, prompting the audience to don the free ponchos that were distributed upon entry. Unpacked they revealed an array of vivid hues that turned the domain into an exotic petri dish of colour. "That was intentional, believe it or not," claimed Laneway's Jerome Borazio. Along with Danny Rogers and in league with promoter Michael Chugg, as well as a local contingent organisers have worked hard to adapt the domestic event to Singapore. Singapore acts are dotted throughout the lineup. The foray seems to be working, with the festival now drawing thousands, up from hundreds, when it began.

Bratty US pop-punk Mac Demarco was good accompaniment to the fading drizzle, his sunny, scratchy guitar tunes and hilarious banter an inviting counterpoint to the clouds. Demarco and band freely tested the country's harsh view on swearing, dropping several F-bombs on their way to a boisterous set that included a wonderfully tongue-in-cheek cover of Coldplay's Yellow. Later, Demarco would look down the camera in the Media Tent and state his fondness for fellatio.

Melbourne's Courtney Barnett found a warm welcome on the main stage, her staunchly Aussie accent serving as an Antipodean entree for Angus & Julia Stone's set of Americana-infused guitar twang. Loud UK rock duo Royal Blood attracted one of the biggest crowds of the day, eager to jump up and down to the band's riff-reimagining of Queens of the Stone Age and The White Stripes. On the smaller Cloud Stage local act Hanging Up The Moon came on like a fey Augie March, complete with technical issues and moments of transcendental beauty.
