A Rabbit’s Foot, No.16
Release date: October 16, 2026
A Rabbit´s Foot is a British-based quarterly printed film and art bookazine, founded and edited by the film producer and businessman Charles Finch. Finch hosts the Oscars, Cannes, and BAFTA dinners and has long- standing connections to the film industry.
Established as an “insider’s look at the industry, from a current, historical and international perspective” with a premium, handmade feel, A Rabbit’s Foot aims to be a cerebral companion for those curious about arts and films, with a consumer-facing focus. Each quarterly edition is themed around a cultural motif (such as French cinema or Politics and Film) and contains interviews, essays and biographical writing around that chosen topic, alongside photography, behind the scene-images and film stills.
In this issue:
A Rabbit’s Foot’s 16th issue explores the symbiotic relationship between film and fashion, featuring two covers to choose from: a solemn black and white portrait of Willem Dafoe in a staged film shoot, titled ‘The Chameleon’, and a BTS shot of Kendall Jenner—paragon of 21st century performance art—adorned in head to toe Bottega Veneta. It’s a star-studded issue, opening with an interview with Oscar-winning British director Danny Boyle ahead of the 2026 Venice Film Festival premiere of ‘Ink’, his eagerly awaited Rupert Murdoch biopic starring Guy Pearce and Jack O’Connell, followed by a conversation with Spanish auteur Pedro Almodovar on the ‘muses and mujeres’ at the centre of his cinematic universe. Women also take centre stage in a conversation with Hannah Einbinder, which sees the ‘Hacks’ breakout star discuss her role in Jane Schoenbrun’s indie queer slasher ‘Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma’. Also featured: legendary fashion photographer Collier Schorr, British playwright Hanif Kureishi, and a trio of essays paying homage to ‘Style Icons’ of the silver screen.
And the name? Glad you asked. It comes from an Ernest Hemingway book, ‘For luck you carried… a rabbit’s foot in your right pocket… the claws scratched in the lining of your pocket and you knew your luck was still there.’
