It's a shame Park Chan-wook couldn't get his English-language debut "Stoker" ready in time for Cannes but his leading lady, Nicole Kidman, has still managed to have two films appear on the Croisette this year. While everyone's been talking up her role in "The Paperboy," Kidman also stars opposite Clive Owen in HBO's "Hemingway & Gellhorn" which premieres there before airing next week on the cable channel.
The film follows the relationship between journalist Gelhorn and her writer husband Hemingway, from when they first met in a Florida bar in 1936 through to their divorce in 1945. The pair traveled to Spain together during the Spanish Civil War before marrying in 1940, but their relationship became strained. Gellhorn was the only one of his wives to ask Hemingway for a divorce, and later inspired him to write his novel, "For Whom the Bell Tolls."
We've got a pair of images from the film which »

Hemingway & Gellhorn – premiering on HBO on May 28th and directed by Philip Kaufman (The Unbearable Lightness of Being, The Right Stuff, Henry & June) from a script by Jerry Stahl and Barbara Turner – recounts the passionate love affair and tumultuous marriage of literary master Ernest Hemingway (Clive Owen) and trailblazing war correspondent Martha Gellhorn (Nicole Kidman), following their relationship through the Spanish Civil War and beyond. As the two witnessed history, they covered all the great conflicts of their time, but just couldn’t overcome their own conflicts at home. The film also stars David Strathairn, Molly Parker, Rodrigo Santoro, Parker Posey, Lars Ulrich, Santiago Cabrera, Saverio Guerra, Peter Coyote, Diane Baker, Joan Chen and Tony Shalhoub. During this exclusive interview with Collider, accomplished filmmaker and multiple Academy Award nominee Philip Kaufman (whose writing credits include Raiders of the Lost Ark) talked about how this film was brought to him, making his first feature for television, »

Director: Braden King Writers: Braden King, Dani Valent Starring: Ben Foster, Lubna Azabal, Peter Coyote, Narek Nersisyan, Aren Vatyan, Christina Hovaguimyan, Datekiv Kharibyan Will (Ben Foster) is a California-based cartographer on contract in Armenia to confirm the satellite mapping of the country. He travels around Armenia, making frequent stops along the way; he whips out his laptop and antennas, connects to the satellite, then moves on to his next location. It is a lonely existence. Will does not know Armenian, and most of the Armenians he encounters do not know English. The only way Will seems to be able to connect with Armenians is via his penchant for alcohol -- Will has a knack for becoming fast friends with Armenians after a few shots of vodka. On one fateful morning, Will is hungover. He just wants to order an omelette at the hotel cafe, but he frustratingly fumbles in his »

I have scheduled this first part of my Cannes 2012 Preview to publish while I am somewhere over the middle of the United States, on my way to New York where I will connect with a flight heading into Nice. I'll be arriving in Cannes some time around 1 Pm Cet and my third straight journey to the Cannes Film Festival will begin, an experience that has easily become the #1 highlight of my year when it comes to covering movies. As hard as I have to work to cover the festival each year, it is absolutely worth it and based on the selection this year it looks like it will be just as fascinating. To begin, the festival runs from May 16-27, but I will only be in town through the morning of the 24th. As a result, two films that probably would have made my top ten most anticipated movies list won't, »

Braden King's recently-released feature film Here reminds us of cinema's magical, almost limitless narrative and aesthetic possibilities. Shot entirely on location in the Republic of Armenia, Here is a metaphysical, philosophical road film, a love story and travelogue, a meditation on technology's effects on contemporary society and much more, a study on love, loss and the human condition that leaves the viewer at once emotionally spent and renewed, as paradoxical as this may sound. Red haired, unshaven, rugged loner and American cartographer Will (Ben Foster) has been hired by local Armenian businessmen (read: mafiosi) to chart the Republic of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh. Fiercely independent and unwilling to bow to Armenian dictates about women's proper roles in society, photographer Gadariné (Lubna Azabal of Incendies fame) plays the role of a prodigal daughter who has returned home, if briefly, after a successful Parisian opening. Will and Gadariné meet by chance and »

Despite naturalistic performances by leads Ben Foster and Lubna Azabal ("Incendies," "Coriolanus") and impressive cinematography by Lol Crawley ("Ballast," "Four Lions"), Braden King's "Here" is a maundering relationship movie with few stakes and even less to say.
However, it begins convincingly enough. The film opens with an experimental sequence (the first of a handful spread throughout) pontificating on the lives of dreamers and thinkers, how their trains of thought sometimes intersect, and where they differ. Peter Coyote narrates these passages in a professorial way, and while all are potentially interesting, sooner than later they may flip the Zone-Out Switch that many university instructors have the uncanny ability to do. Still, opening with such a pondering nature suggests that "Here" might have more under the hood than a simplistic love story. We're along for the ride.

When Oscar Wilde visited San Francisco in 1882, his three-day presence caused a local sensation, with throngs of admirers mobbing him at every turn.
Al Pacino, in town for the premiere of his Oscar Wilde-themed documentary "Wilde Salome" found his portrayal of the notorious author-performer to be similarly compelling -- how else to explain the throngs which surrounded him from the Castro Theater to the Fairmont Hotel?
(Scroll Down For Photos)
San Francisco gets a little starstruck when new notables appear; those red carpets seem to compel the teensiest bit of green envy of our Angeleno brethren, or our New York cousins, or our Parisian pals. It's just all so paparazzi-perfect, so flashbulb fantastic. So our little City was literally a-Twitter when the Pacino premiere also included designer Jean Paul Gaultier with burlesque idol Dita Von Teese, and appearances by local matinee idols Peter Coyote and Joan Chen. »

Last month HBO dropped a 5-minute trailer for their upcoming film "Hemingway & Gellhorn" starring Clive Owen and Nicole Kidman as the titular Ernest Hemingway and Martha Gellhorn, respectively. For anyone who thinks 5 minutes is too long for a trailer, or for those who simply couldn't be bothered sitting through it all, HBO have offered us a new look at the film in a handy bite-sized edition - this trailer coming in at just under a minute.
There's nothing particularly new or eye-catching on show here until right at the end of the trailer, and then comes a new and vital piece of information about the film - the air date. Philip Kaufman's ("The Unbearable Lightness of Being") film will premiere on HBO on Monday, May 28, and as far as we can tell from what we've seen so far, we've got some fantastic visuals and performances to look forward to. »

"Wrapped in the sweet, false escape of dreams, I hear the unmistakable sounds of meat being beaten by blackjack, of bootfalls, yells, curses; and it merges into the mind's movie-making machine, evoking distant memories of some of the Philadelphia Police Department's greatest hits--on me. "Get off that man, you fat, greasy, racist, redneck pig bitch muthafucka!" My tired eyes snap open; the cracks, thuds, "oofs!" come in all too clear. Damn. No dream. Another dawn, another beating on B-Block, another shackled inmate at Pennsylvania's Huntingdon prison pummeled into the concrete by a squadron of guards." -Mumia Abu-Jamal "B-Block Days & Nightmares"
Stephen Vittoria is that rare commodity in Hollywood today: a filmmaker with a conscience. To be more precise, a filmmaker with a strong political conscience. After making two feature films, Black and White (aka Lou, Pat & Joe D., 1987) and Hollywood Boulevard (1996), as well as »
