'Homeland' Producers on Being Obama's Favorite Show, Shooting Season 2 in Israel
21 May 2012 12:12 PM, PDT | The Hollywood Reporter | See recent The Hollywood Reporter news »
Tick off the list of impressive accomplishments already achieved by Homeland in after its inaugural ten episodes: the Showtime CIA drama earned a Golden Globe, multiple shoutouts from President Obama and, at Monday's ceremony in New York, a Peabody. Not a bad first season at all. The show, which features Claire Danes as a manic CIA intelligence officer and Damian Lewis as a former prisoner of war who may or may not have been turned into a terrorist, was one of a number of scripted series honored at the prestigious electronic media awards given by the University of Georgia.

Romeo And Juliet for Twilight Crowd
19 May 2012 11:11 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Romeo and Juliet: Hailee Steinfeld, Douglas Booth Starring Lol‘s Douglas Booth and True Grit‘s Hailee Steinfeld, a new version of Romeo and Juliet is currently being shopped around at the Cannes Film Festival. Partly financed by Austrian design house Swarovski, this latest adaptation of Shakespeare’s love story was written by Academy Award winner Julian Fellowes (Gosford Park) and directed by Carlo Carlei. A Best New Director David di Donatello nominee for The Flight of the Innocent (1993), Carlei’s previous English-language foray, the Matthew Modine vehicle Fluke, was a major box-office flop in 1995. In recent years, Carlei has worked on Italian television; his most recent TV movie was a remake of Roberto Rossellini’s Il General della Rovere (2011), starring Pierfrancesco Favino in the old Vittorio De Sica role. According to the Los Angeles Times blog 24 Frames, producer Ileen Maisel wants “every teenager in the world to come see” Romeo and Juliet. »

Hugh Dancy on Casting for Chemistry
14 May 2012 11:00 PM, PDT | backstage.com | See recent Backstage news »
Hugh Dancy shrugs at the notion that he tends to share strong chemistry with his female co-stars.“I think ‘chemistry’ is an overused phrase,” the actor says. “It’s hard to define, and it usually just involves good writing and good acting. I’ve certainly worked with people that I didn’t feel any personal chemistry with whatsoever but that worked out very well onscreen.” He adds, laughing, “And there are plenty of stories of people falling in love on movie sets and then producing absolutely abysmal films.”In fact, Dancy met his wife, Claire Danes (“Homeland”), in 2006 while filming “Evening.” The actors were married in 2009.If onscreen chemistry is mostly the result of hard work, as Dancy claims, then the actor is one of the hardest-working men in show business.Whether wooing Anne Hathaway in “Ella Enchanted” or Isla Fisher in “Confessions of a Shopaholic,” making the most of supporting roles in female-driven ensemble. »

14 May 2012 10:30 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Jerusalem — "Homeland" star Mandy Patinkin has made a small push for peace while filming episodes of the hit TV show in Israel.
Israel's Channel 10 Sunday showed footage of the cast filming near Jaffa and actress Claire Danes leaving a restaurant.
Patinkin is a supporter of the Israeli left that advocates a two state solution to Israeli-Palestinian conflict and an end to settlement building in the West Bank.
Patinkin said he wants his grandchildren "to be able to have Hummus with their neighbors in Hebron," a West Bank town.
"Homeland" is based on an Israeli drama, "Prisoners of War." It tells the story of an American soldier freed from captivity in Iraq and a CIA officer who suspects him of being an al-Qaida turncoat. »

The American thriller was fabulous. And until it returns, here's the Israeli version…
Prisoners of War (Sky Arts 1)
Planet Earth Live (BBC1) | iPlayer
A Civil Arrangement (BBC4) | iPlayer
Edward VIII: The Plot to Topple a King (Channel 4) | 4oD
Homeland – surely the best American TV thriller in years – finished last week with everything but the bang, postponing the expected showdown between the most potent pairing of male-female antagonists since I don't know when (but I'm not going to say Luther) for a second mouth-watering series in the autumn. Claire Danes has been as vivid a bug-eyed bipolar CIA agent as you could wish for in the role of Carrie Mathison, up against (and unhelpfully besotted by) the unblinking menace of Damian Lewis as Us marine and family man Brody, turned by his al-Qaida captors into a would-be suicide bomber just a hug away from the vice-president. »

First Images & 3 Clips From Thomas Vinterberg's 'The Hunt' Starring Mads Mikkelsen
10 May 2012 6:16 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
One of the biggest surprises in the Cannes lineup was the return of Dogme 95 co-founder and Lars von Trier cohort Thomas Vinterberg. Not only because his partner-in-crime was handed a persona non grata last year, but also because the helmer has more or less failed to live up to his first Dogme work, "Festen," despite high-profile efforts such as "It's All About Love" starring Joaquin Phoenix, Sean Penn and Claire Danes. But Vinterberg's new film indeed looks promising.
The first images have now been unveiled (via Flix) for "The Hunt," which excitingly teams him with Mads Mikkelsen for a drama set in a small Danish village around Christmas. Scripted by Vinterberg and Tobias Lindholm, the story itself follows Lucas, who is accused of a crime he did not commit and must fight to get his life back on track. Here's the synopsis:
Following a tough divorce, 40 year-old Lucas has a new girlfriend, »

Color was also a trend, with January Jones choosing a strapless yellow Versace and Emily Blunt in coral Calvin Klein.

Gripping and daring, Homeland raised questions British TV needs to answer
8 May 2012 4:35 AM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
As with Victorian novels, much of its power comes from the space available for narrative development, writes Mark Lawson
The highest levels of televisual tension have generally rested, in recent years, on which of two aspiring performers would be allowed to record an album for Simon Cowell. But – for upwards of 2.5 million viewers of Channel 4 on Sunday night – genuine pulse-thumping, sweaty expectation attended not the result of a public phone-vote but that oldest of dilemmas: the outcome of a story.
Twelve weeks after he returned to America a hero from eight years as a hostage in Iraq, would Damian Lewis's Sergeant Brody finally prove the view of CIA handler Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) that he was an al-Qaida sleeper set on devastating the American government?
Following three months of unnerving reverses, in this adaptation by the American cable network Showtime of the Israeli prisoner of war drama Hatufim, »

TV review: Homeland
6 May 2012 4:05 PM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
This great final episode to a great series leaves us looking forward to more
Where were we, then, in Homeland (Channel 4)? That's right; the bomb that went off in the square tipped Carrie over the edge, left her in a dark and lonely place – manic, abandoned, ignored, fired. At least she has her family, an understanding sister and father with similar issues. And Saul, the only person in the whole world who thinks there may actually be something in Carrie's crazy collage of colour and classified information on the wall.
Brody has been on his very American/ very un-American family mini-break to Gettysburg, taught the kids a bit of history and picked up his special vest, packed with wires and explosives and ball bearings. Now he's busy – making some small adjustments to the vest, getting in a little bit more quality time with Jessica and the children, filming a video message, »

Homeland: season one finale, episode 12
6 May 2012 2:43 PM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
This series ripped up the idea of heroes and villains and left a deep impression – but what did you make of it?
Spoiler Alert: This blog is for people watching Homeland on Channel 4. Don't read on if you haven't seen episode 12 – and if you've seen further in the series, please do not leave spoilers
Rebecca Nicholson's episode 11 blog
"Marine One"
First things first: is everyone okay? I have nail marks in my palms, a rapid heart rate that may never quite return to normal and a deep sense of despair that humanity is doomed. Other than that, I'm just about holding up, and I hope you are too. This was a fantastic finale and it's hard to recall a more tense 90 minutes of television.
What Homeland did wonderfully over the course of this series was rip up the idea of heroes and villains, – and in this last episode the distinction broke down completely. »

Why Do We Love Homeland?
5 May 2012 1:27 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Less than a year ago, HuffPostUK spoke to Damian Lewis about a small French-funded film he was about to appear in. As an afterthought, he added, “I’ve just done a pilot for a TV series about a war veteran coming back from Afghanistan – who you don’t know if he’s been turned or not – so we’ll see what happens with that.”
What happened with that was two Golden Globes – one for Best TV Series, one for Best Actress – and a further nomination for Lewis himself, as Best Actor. And reports that it was the President’s favourite bit of telly, and an invitation for the British actor and his wife to dinner at the White House during our Prime Minister’s own state visit. So, it’s probably not overstating it to say that Homeland has become a phenomenon.
And we’ll have to learn to do without on Sunday nights, »
