Blu-ray Review: Awful Script Strands ‘Open Road’ in Formulaic Wasteland
17 May 2013 5:11 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – So you’re a young woman who decides to fall asleep in your car parked just off the highway. You’re awoken by the rapping fist of a chiseled cop who leers at you with the sexual appetite of a drooling wolf. Sounds like a meet cute straight out of Alfred Hitchcock’s “Psycho.” But in Marcio Garcia’s head-slapping dud, “Open Road,” it’s supposed to be heartwarming.
See, the cop, David (Colin Egglesfield), has such an instantaneous infatuation with the woman, Angie (Camilla Belle), that he practically can’t contain his excitement when she complains that her car won’t start. So David checks to see what’s wrong with the car, and since he’s off-camera, we assume that he’s hacking away at the engine with his nightstick. After treating her to a meal, David suggests that Angie stay with him in his trailer for »

Paul Thomas Anderson - Mondo Movie Poster Art Series
15 May 2013 12:30 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
I enjoy the films of Paul Thomas Anderson. The guy is an incredible storyteller, and his films are awkwardly beautiful. Mondo has revealed an amazing series of poster art for the films of the director, each one from a different artist. What would you say your favorite PTA movie is? Mine would have to be There Will Be Blood.
"Hard Eight" by Rich Kelly
I met Rich a few years ago when he was living in Chicago - he had only just started out on his phenomenal run of posters but he was already light years ahead of the pack. Looking through his sketchbook was a fucking revelation - I can honestly say that book was up there with Crumb, Ware and Jean in terms of sheer brilliance and natural ability. When this curatorial project was taking shape I knew I wanted non-Mondo regulars to round it out but Kelly »

10 Most Cringeworthy Performances By Otherwise Great Actors
13 May 2013 12:46 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Even the greatest actors make bad decisions. As with all aspects of life, we don’t always know how things are going to turn out unless we try. And “try” is what the 10 actors we’ve assembled for the following list did in abundance. At least, we hope they tried (some of these picks are certainly questionable in that department).
In all cases, though, these downright strange and occasionally insane performances served only to have us questioning the talents of some of the motion picture’s most prestigious actors… how the hell did such defining talents manage to make us cringe quite so much as they did here? Just… don’t do it again, okay, guys?
10. Nine (2009) – Daniel Day-Lewis
Now that he’s officially “the greatest actor of all time,” given his record amount of Best Actor Oscar wins, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Daniel Day-Lewis could do no wrong. »

10 Seriously Insane Ways Famous Movie Actors Got Into Character
8 May 2013 1:29 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Way back in 1897, the Moscow Art Theatre was born. Playwright Anton Chekhov collaborated with many actors and directors and in particular a man called Constantin Stanislavski, a man who pioneered method acting with what he called ‘Theatrical truth’.
Bounce forward a few decades later in the 1940′s and 50′s to the group theatre in New York city and a man called Lee Strasberg who, along with others at the now world famous ‘Actors Studio’, popularized the work of Stanislavski to create what is now known today as ‘Method’ acting. Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Jack Nicholson and Dustin Hoffman are just a few famous names to go through the actors studio, and are now possibly the most famous (with the exception of Daniel Day Lewis) advocates of getting into character by living and breathing every nuance of the world they inhabit.

Tom Hanks is a Real Hero in 'Captain Phillips' Trailer
8 May 2013 12:16 PM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Heads up, Academy voters. Hollywood's very favorite good guy is bringing it again.
This time, Tom Hanks stars as a real American hero in Paul Greengrass' "Captain Phillips," the gut-wrenching trailer for which is now in.
The film depicts the true story of Captain Richard Phillips, who was taken hostage by Somalian pirates in 2009 after they boarded and seized the U.S.-flagged and unarmed cargo ship Maersk Alabama. He'd surrendered himself to the vicious group in order to protect the nineteen crew members on board who were then able to hide from the ship's attackers. After a dramatic five day stand-off between the Somali pirates and the U.S. Navy, Seal Team snipers executed three of the captors and returned the captain to his family, safe and sound.
Put simply, this is one heck of a nationalistic story — 'Merica ya'll! — and Hanks certainly had his work cut out »

‘Amazing Spider-Man’ Star Andrew Garfield Joins Martin Scorsese’s ‘Silence’
8 May 2013 10:37 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
It’s taken him a quarter of a century, but Martin Scorsese has finally made real progress on his previously inert adaptation of Silence, Japanese writer Shusaku Endo’s historical fiction novel. Starting off his week right, the celebrated filmmaker has not only obtained the required funding for his movie, but also a production green light and the services of Amazing Spider-Man star Andrew Garfield.
Ken Watanabe (Inception) will reportedly be joining Garfield on the screen, putting to rest old murmurings regarding Daniel Day-Lewis and Benicio Del Toro’s involvement. Emmett/Furla Films and Corsa Films are providing the financial backing; production allegedly will start in June of 2014, and location scouting is already underway, though additional details remain scarce at this time.
Scorsese does have a screenplay under his belt, which he completed work on back in 1996 with the aid of ...

7 May 2013 12:49 PM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
At one point the cast included Daniel Day-Lewis, Benicio del Toro and Gael Garcia Bernal, but it's taken quite a long time for Martin Scorsese to get Silence off the ground and people move on while other projects stall. Silence, however, is finally coming together. With the production eying a 2014 start, Scorsese has set Andrew Garfield (The Amazing Spider-Man 2, The Social Network) and Ken Watanabe (Inception, The Last Samurai) to star in the film based on Shusaku Endo's novel adapted for the screen by Jay Cocks and Variety's news item reporting it will be a Japaense-language film. Issei Ogata (Yi Yi) also stars. The story is set in the 17th century as two Jesuit priests face violence and persecution when they travel to Japan to locate their mentor and to spread the gospel of Christianity. Garfield will star as Father Rodrigues, a Portuguese Jesuit who travels to Japan »

Martin Scorsese finds someone else to star in his Jesuits-in-Japan movie Silence
7 May 2013 11:51 AM, PDT | avclub.com | See recent The AV Club news »
Martin Scorsese’s Catholic Church film Silence (yes, another Italian gangster movie) has found its star—several years after already finding its stars in Daniel Day-Lewis and Benicio Del Toro, then losing them to time and other projects. Instead, the role of the Jesuit priest who preaches Christianity to a hostile, 17th-century Japan population will now be played by Andrew Garfield, whose performance in The Amazing Spider-Man already proved he’s good with desperately clinging to things. As in the Shusaku Endo novel Silence is based on, Garfield’s Father Rodrigues, aided by a translator played by Ken Watanabe, will »
Andrew Garfield And Ken Watanabe Join Martin Scorsese’s Silence
7 May 2013 11:24 AM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
After a long and litigious journey, Martin Scorsese’s next project Silence has landed his next leading man: Andrew Garfield. Yep, Spiderman will shed his lycra ensemble and don an outfit of an entirely different variety…cloth. Garfield is lined up to play take the starring role in Silence as Father Rodrigues, a 17th-century Portuguese Jesuit who embarks on a quest to Japan with another priest to confront allegations that Rodrigues’ mentor has abandoned the Church. Ken Watanabe has signed up to star as the priests’ interpreter.
Based on the Shusako Endo novel of the same name, Silence will be filmed in it’s native Japanese. Scorsese made clear his intention that the film is “meant for a smaller audience.” Remaining loyal to the novel’s mother tongue may affect how the film is received but Scorsese doesn’t give a stuff. He then went on say:
“Then again, it’s a thriller. »

Andrew Garfield and Ken Watanabe are to star in Martin Scorsese's Silence.
The director has long worked to bring the Shusaku Endo novel to the big screen, and Variety reports that he has finally received the necessary financing from Emmett/Furla Films.
Garfield has been cast in the role of Father Rodrigues in the story of Jesuits attempting to spread Christianity in 17th century Japan.
Daniel Day-Lewis was in talks to star in Silence in 2009, but a deal was never reached.
Silence is expected to begin production in Taiwan in July 2014. Scorsese and Jay Cocks have penned the screenplay.
Scorsese is currently prepping the release of The Wolf of Wall Street, which stars Leonardo DiCaprio as a stockbroker caught in the middle of corporate corruption and mafia intervention.

Casting Watch: Andrew Garfield to Star in Martin Scorsese's Long-Awaited 'Silence'
7 May 2013 11:10 AM, PDT | Thompson on Hollywood | See recent Thompson on Hollywood news »
"Spider-Man" star and "Social Network" dreamboat Andrew Garfield will break the two-decade long silence on Martin Scorsese's "Silence," which goes to the Cannes buyers' market this May. Though not Portuguese himself, Garfield has been cast to play Father Rodrigues, a 17th-century Portuguese Jesuit who travels to Japan to tout the gospel of Christianity. Adapted from Shusaku Endo's 1966 novel, the film was once rumored to star Daniel Day-Lewis, Benicio del Toro and Gael Garcia Bernal, and it's unknown whether they remain attached to the project or not. Japanese star Ken Watanabe ("The Last Samurai") will co-star with Garfield. "Silence" has been on pause for years but has been a dream project of Scorsese's since he read the novel 25 years ago, according to an interview with the director in Variety. Scorsese, currently wrapping up "The Wolf of Wall Street" starring Leonardo DiCaprio (allegedly the "Great Gatsby" star's last role for awhile), is still location. »

Andrew Garfield to Star in Martin Scorsese’s Silence; Ken Watanabe Also Cast
7 May 2013 10:35 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Following a long, long development process that has spanned decades, director Martin Scorsese is finally gearing up to make his passion project, Silence, and he’s nabbed an incredibly talented young actor to lead the film. The Amazing Spider-Man and The Social Network star Andrew Garfield has been tapped to lead Scorsese’s adaptation of the Shusaku Endo novel of the same name, which centers on two 17th-century Jesuit priests who travel to Japan to investigate claims of religious persecution. Earlier iterations of the project had Daniel Day-Lewis, Benicio Del Toro, and Gael Garcia Bernal rumored to be handling the lead roles, but it appears that Scorsese has opted to go a bit younger for the role of Father Rodrigues. Hit the jump for more, including the casting of Ken Watanabe and Issei Ogata in the film. While Scorsese has been trying to get Silence off the ground for years, »

Susan Calman finds that Scottish independence is no joke

Deaths threats to comedian prompt calls for nationalists to raise the tone. Plus, Fringe gets new venue and Trump takes revenge
This week's comedy news
And this week – a comedian influences the future survival of the British state. Standup Susan Calman has been drawn into a row surrounding the conduct of the campaign for Scottish independence, after she was attacked online after joking on Radio 4's News Quiz about the nationalist cause.
"After the show was broadcast," Calman wrote on her blog, "I was accused of betraying my country, of being racist towards my own people and of being a cunt." Fellow comics including Rory Bremner leaped to Calman's defence, as the Scotsman newspaper picked up on and ran with Calman's reference to "name-calling, swearing and death threats". To cap it all, the shadow foreign secretary and Unionist tub-thumper Douglas Alexander hijacked the row to berate the independence camp for lowering the debate's tone. »

Oscar winners Olivia de Havilland and Luise Rainer among movie stars of the 1930s still alive With the passing of Deanna Durbin this past April, only a handful of movie stars of the 1930s remain on Planet Earth. Below is a (I believe) full list of surviving Hollywood "movie stars of the 1930s," in addition to a handful of secondary players, chiefly those who achieved stardom in the ensuing decade. Note: There’s only one male performer on the list — and curiously, four of the five child actresses listed below were born in April. (Please scroll down to check out the list of Oscar winners at the 75th Academy Awards, held on March 23, 2003, as seen in the picture above. Click on the photo to enlarge it. © A.M.P.A.S.)

8 Urban Myths About Movies You Probably Believe
7 May 2013 1:37 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Tacit assumptions are both the plague of and the creator of everyday conversation. You’ll have noticed this; someone will say something inane like “There are 9 planets in the galaxy!” and someone else will say “There’s 10, actually.” This will be disagreed with, thus creating a debate and in this way, the time with your friends becomes infinitely more profitable than the turgid silence in which you would otherwise languish. Urban myths are the same; someone will blurt out some ad-hoc belief like “That building over there is haunted” and you will fulfill your end of the deal by calling them a smelly tramp, thus debate, thus joy, happiness, goodness, existence.
Cinema invites such assumptions, being as it is one of the popular media of the 21st Century. You see, the more esoteric the interest, the less opportunity there is for myth to arise; in quantum physics, for example, if »
