Bad Lieutenants and Magnificent Sevens – the golden rules of the cinematic remake

31 December 2009 2:00 PM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

Magnificent Seven, The Ring, Psycho, The Preacher's Wife – some remakes are an improvement, some are an abysmal waste of time. Joe Queenan judges the pack

In 1992, Abel Ferrara made a very dark, very depressing movie called Bad Lieutenant. In it, Harvey Keitel played a morally bankrupt police officer who seeks redemption by investigating the rape of a nun who refuses to bring charges against her assailant, turning the Bad Lieutenant into the Mad Lieutenant. The film did nothing at the box office, and is remembered mostly because it is the motion picture in which Keitel shows off his penis. There was at the time no great demand for Keitel – a fine actor, but never a matinee idol – to show off his penis, even though it was a very splendid penis indeed, nor has there been any grassroots groundswell of support for this sort of thing afterwards.

Not so long ago, »

Row over Demi Moore`s W magazine photo takes another twist

30 December 2009 1:35 AM, PST | Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news »

The row over Demi Moore's cover shoot for W magazine has taken another twist. A Korean sister issue of the mag reportedly 'plumped up' the star's hip. Many observers alleged W trimmed it down, a claim Moore and the magazine denied. Photographer Anthony Citrano, who claimed the original images were retouched, wrote on his blog: 'Did W’s Korean team add in a fake hip because they just kinda thought it looked awkward? Or did they merely reveal a hip that was already there?' W, meanwhile, said the magazine 'did not do anything unusual or out of the ordinary' to the photo, adding: 'Demi is an extraordinary beautiful woman and we feel our cover reflects that.' »

The Fight Over Demi Moore's Apparent Missing Hips Continues

29 December 2009 3:13 AM, PST | icelebz.com | See recent iCelebz news »

The war over Demi Moore's hips is still not over. The actress' much-talked about W magazine cover photo continues to stir controversies, this time it involves lawyers and a reappearing chunk of flesh.

It may be recalled that when W magazine unveiled the 47-year-old Hollywood star's cover shoot for its December issue, various blogs, critics, and online surfers have commented on the apparent missing part of Moore's left hip.

Photographer Anthony Citrano said that it was obvious that photo editors had made a clumsy error in retouching the picture, making the product appear awkwardly modified.

Moore blasted the critics and told her fans that her "hips were not touched." She included a link to another version of the W cover, which she claimed was the original image.

Demi Moore Blasted By Photographer Over Airbrushed Image

29 December 2009 1:05 AM, PST | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »

The photographer who sparked controversy by suggesting a magazine photo of Demi Moore was digitally altered has reignited his feud with the star. Moore posed for fashion photographers Mert and Marcus in November and she graced the cover of America's W magazine in December.

But the photo, which depicts the star looking super-slim in a revealing, skin-tight green dress, became the subject of controversy when Citrano claimed the picture had been heavily edited to make her hips and thighs appear smaller. Moore has since handed Citrano a formal request to make a retraction and apologise for his comments, but he has refused.

And now the snapper is furthering the argument - by pointing out that a Korean version of Moore's cover features a curvier hip, suggesting his original comments were correct.

Moore Airbrush Controversy Continues

29 December 2009 12:11 AM, PST | WENN | See recent WENN news »

The photographer who sparked controversy by suggesting a magazine photo of Demi Moore was digitally altered has reignited his feud with the star.

Moore posed for fashion photographers Mert and Marcus in November and she graced the cover of America's W magazine this month.

But the photo, which depicts the star looking super-slim in a revealing, skin-tight green dress, became the subject of controversy when Citrano claimed the picture had been heavily edited to make her hips and thighs appear smaller.

Moore has since handed Citrano a formal request to make a retraction and apologise for his comments, but he has refused.

And now the snapper is furthering the argument - by pointing out that a Korean version of Moore's cover features a curvier hip, suggesting his original comments were correct.

Citrano says, "Right when you thought (hoped) this whole thing was over, something comes along that, as the Jerky Boys would say, puts a whole different paint job on things. I was back in Maine for Christmas (and of course, holding my breath for an apology and retraction from Demi Moore and her legal team), just hanging out with my Mom and her cat - and in came a cameraphone tip from halfway 'round the world... The January 2010 issue of W Korea just hit the newsstands (with the ironic subtitle Women in Full). Unsurprisingly, they decided to use the excellent Mert & Marcus shot of Demi Moore. But very surprisingly, they installed a new hip on Demi. So: even W's sister publication thought the image looked weird enough to fix.

"This raises a few serious questions for (Moore's lawyer) Martin Singer, his client, and W: did W's Korean team add in a fake hip because they just kinda thought it looked awkward? (Y'know, like I did, before you attacked, discredited, and threatened to sue me?) Or did they merely reveal a hip that was already there, but that Singer, et alia litigiously denied had been accidentally obliterated?

"If it's the former: are Singer, Moore et alia now going to pursue legal action against W Korea? By retouching the image's supposedly 'genuine representation' of her 'absolutely not retouched' hip, did W Korea imply the same things Singer claims I did (but which, of course, I didn't)?

"If it's the latter: who was aware of this? If Mr. Singer and Ms. Moore were aware, this raises some rather serious legal questions. Regardless of it being the dumbest argument ever, some very serious core principles are in play." »

Warner Bros is 2009's Most Proftable Movie Studio

28 December 2009 11:35 AM, PST | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

If Warner Bros was a movie character, it would be Demi Moore in Indecent Proposal -- sexy, successful, and with piles upon piles of money to roll around in. That's because as of today, according to Deadline Hollywood Daily, Warner Bros has become the most profitable studio of the year. With over $2 billion in domestic grosses, they now hold the movie industry record for most profitable studio. But even the record breaking is a little yawn-worthy for old Warner Bros. They broke the record last year too with $1.789 billion, so if there's a trophy that gets passed around Tinseltown, they get to just polish it up and straighten it on their mantelpiece.

Of course, if you pay attention to box office numbers at all, this really comes as no surprise. They've had three incredible years when it comes to blockbusters. In 2007, they had three of the top ten highest grossing »

Jennifer Aniston Not Converting to Kabbalah, Rep Confirms

28 December 2009 12:24 AM, PST | Celebrity Mania | See recent Celebrity Mania news »

Rumors suggesting that Jennifer Aniston had planned to convert to Kabbalah are shot down. On Sunday, December 27, Gossip Cop reported a representative for the ex-wife of Brad Pitt has told them that the story is "not true". The site, additionally, described the reports as "holiday classic tale", which is totally fabricated.

Daily Mail was the first which brought out a story that the "Marley & Me" star had thought about changing her faith to Demi Moore's religion, Kabbalah. Recalling both actresses' first meeting, a source said, "Jen and Demi first met a few years ago through a lifestyle guru in Hollywood, but they bumped into each other at a Mont Blanc party in New York last month."

The source went on to share about how Aniston and Moore got close to each other. "They spent ages talking and Demi was waxing lyrical about how life-changing and wonderful Kabbalah is, and »

Photographer Refuses To Apologise For Moore Airbrush Comments

28 December 2009 12:16 AM, PST | WENN | See recent WENN news »

A photographer who shot Demi Moore for the December cover of a fashion magazine has refused to apologise for suggesting the final image was digitally altered, despite receiving a formal request from the actress' lawyer.

Moore - who is alleged to have had multiple cosmetic surgery procedures in the past - posed for Anthony Citrano in November and she graced the cover of America's W magazine this month.

But the photo, which depicts the star looking super-slim in a revealing, skintight green dress, became the subject of controversy when Citrano claimed the picture had been heavily edited to make her hips and thighs appear smaller.

In a post on his website, Citrano wrote, "Did she have some sort of weird car accident that left a wedge of meat missing from it? The fabric even magically floats above the missing thigh."

Magazine editors denied the photo had been airbrushed and Moore posted a copy of what she claimed to be the original picture on her Twitter.com page.

Her lawyer, Marty Singer, has since written to Citrano demanding a retraction and a public apology.

In the letter, which Citrano posted online, Singer states: "As you are undoubtedly well aware, my client's appearance is of great importance to her career and livelihood, and false claims or insinuations that she secretly uses extraordinarily artificial means to alter her appearance are extremely damaging."

But Citrano is refusing to bow down to the Hollywood star's legal team, insisting he will not be bullied into saying sorry, reports the New York Post.

He says, "Neither of these (retraction and apology) will be forthcoming." »

Review: Spread

27 December 2009 4:00 PM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

2009 was a fantastic year for film and so i’m expecting an even better year in 2010. Unfortunately the UK film release schedule has been unkind to us with the 1st January releases and Spread is a horrible way to bring in the new decade, fortunately Daybreakers, It’s Complicated and the incredible The Road are out the following week.

Spread is one of those films where you think ‘what was the point of that’ after sitting through about 90 minutes of Ashton Kutcher trying to reach the American Gigolo acting heights of Richard Gere and failing miserably. But what Kutcher did show is that he has found a role as arrogant and obnoxious as himself so it kind of worked for him but did nothing for his acting reputation.

Filmed in the gorgeous setting of La and focusing on the gorgeous people who live there we follow the ugly personality of »
