MALKOVICH’S MARK: The St. Regis Istanbul opened its doors earlier this week and to mark the occasion, the hotel group recruited actor and filmmaker John Malkovich to write and direct a short film, which was screened at the private members club 5 Hertford Street in London on Tuesday night. Champagne and Bloody Marys, which were first invented at the St. Regis New York’s King Cole Bar, were served to guests including the film’s stars — Julian Sands and Turkish actress Belçim Bilgin — as well as Tom Hollander, Bella Freud, Detmar Blow, Martha Fiennes and Stephen Frears.
