'October Baby' director Jon Erwin on his movie's surprising box office performance
26 March 2012 1:11 PM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
The Hunger Games wasn’t this weekend’s only box office success story. As Katniss Everdeen fought for her freedom on screens across the country, a humble pro-life film called October Baby quietly opened in just 390 theaters. That modest release, which co-stars Jasmine Guy and John Schneider, ended up earning a cool $1,718,000 — enough to put it among the weekend’s top eight earners.
“Yeah, I was surprised,” October Baby co-director Jon Erwin laughs, speaking to EW via cell phone. He helmed the movie with his brother Andrew. “We didn’t make the film because we wanted some sort of big »

[Review] October Baby
26 March 2012 7:00 AM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
If only October Baby played it straight with no agenda. The advent of the mega-church I believe has led to a mega-church sponsored filmmaking, with Courageous being the last film in this category. The problem is these films fit a melodramatic niche, produced by non-filmmakers the language developed is, shall we say, risk adverse. It’s enough to have a sad scene, but it must be heightened by music that tells you how exactly to feel and the grammar is a bit off. It’s a shame, October Baby tells a highly compelling story with strong performances and excellent cinematography by its co-director Jon Erwin. His brother and co-director Andrew Erwin is perhaps to blame, as he’s the editor.
Questionable sound mix aside (a bit rough for a theatrical release, it could use another polish especially in how sound levels frequently drop out as if they didn’t record enough room tone, »

Your Box Office Explained: The Hunger Games Wins It All
26 March 2012 6:45 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
This Weekend’s Winner: The Hunger Games (No. 1 with $155 million in North America, and a whopping $214 million globally) Honorable mention: Samuel Goldwyn Films’ anti-abortion evangelical bait October Baby (with John Schneider and Jasmine Guy!) landed at No. 8 with $1.7 million, giving it the second-highest per screen average this weekend, and from not even 400 theaters at that. Perhaps its release benefited from all those Rick Santorum fans looking to go out and do something fun to celebrate his Louisiana win? This Weekend’s Loser: Twilight: New Moon, which debuted to only $142 million in November 2009. (Relax! We’re only saying that to get all you Stephenie Meyer fans into a psychotic lather … No, but seriously: Suck it, Bella!)How It All Went Down: Yes, it made more than Twilight and became the third biggest opening for a movie, ever. But how? “The brilliant marketing made the movie feel »

'October Baby': Will you see the anti-abortion drama?
24 March 2012 4:51 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
The film "October Baby" opened in just under 400 theaters this weekend, and considering its small release, it's already seen great success, with a per-theater average that trails just behind "The Hunger Games."
The independent film tells the story of a college freshman who learns that she was adopted by her parents and is the survivor of an attempted abortion. Directed by Andrew and Jon Erwin, the faith-bath movie stars Rachel Hendrix as Hannah and "Smallville's" John Schneider as her adopted father.
When Hannah learns she was nearly aborted, she sets out to find her birth mother. Jasmine Guy plays a nurse who describes in detail the procedure that Hannah's birth mother had.
Positive word-of-mouth from faith-based groups and conservatives has driven the film to surprising success -- to some degree. When it was released last fall timed to a "personhood" initiative in Mississippi, funded by the American Family Association, it »

Film Review: Splendid Photography, Strong Acting Almost Save ‘October Baby’ From Far-Fetched Melodrama
23 March 2012 8:19 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Rating: 2.5/5.0
Chicago – When reading the plot synopsis for the film “October Baby,” there were a few things I already expected. “A college freshman’s world is rocked when she learns she is the adopted survivor of an attempted abortion” (IMdb). While this is clearly a recipe for melodrama and emotion, writers Jon Erwin and Cecil Stokes ended up creating a story that is even more unrealistic than I first imagined. Luckily for them, the film is still salvaged by some strong acting performances and some engaging visuals.
Directed by Andrew and Jon Erwin and starring Rachel Hendrix, Jason Burkey, John Schneider, and Jasmine Guy, “October Baby” follows the story of Hannah (Hendrix), a 19 year-old aspiring actress who is shocked to find out that some of her medical issues she has had in her life stem from a traumatic birth she had no idea about. While Hannah had never really felt normal or herself, »

'90s Black Sitcom Stars Return To TV
1 February 2012 2:49 PM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Everyone loves a good comeback and as of late, TV has been chock-full of them.
When "The Voice's" Cee Lo Green had the former "Family Matters" star Jaleel White -- better known as Steve Urkel -- lip-sync in his "Cry Baby" music video, it was clear that though Urkel had fallen, he's gotten up. Soon enough, it was announced that White would get a new small screen gig: hosting a SyFy game show called "Total Blackout."
But he's far from the only actor from a '90s black sitcom to return to TV recently: "Sister, Sister" twins Tia and Tamera Mowry starred in their own blockbuster Style Network reality series; Keshia Knight Pulliam, who played Rudy on "The Cosby Show," got a gig on "Tyler Perry's House of Payne;" her TV big brother Malcolm Jamal Warner (a.k.a. Theo Huxtable) had a stint on "Community"; Jasmine Guy, the »

The Vampire Diaries 3.12 "The Ties That Bind" Review
At the heart of The Vampire Diaries family is what is important and this episode showcases this central theme. The connections between family has been the driving force of Stefan's (Paul Wesley) vendetta against Klaus (Joseph Morgan) through using Klaus' family coffin collection as leverage; but after he succeeded in getting Klaus to remove his hybrids from Mystic Falls what will be his next move? As this is The Vampire Diaries we don't have to wait long for either vampire to take action, but it is Bonnie (Kat Graham) who could prove to be the most valuable player in this good old fashioned stalemate.
Stefan asked for Bonnie's help thanks to her ability to harness her power to hide the coffins and also to help open the mysterious fourth coffin that is sealed with a spell (and not a kiss). Bonnie is »
