Candelabra shows our best romances are gay
5 hours ago | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
As Soderbergh's Liberace biopic hits our screens, why is it that homosexual love stories now work so much better than hetero?
I know where I'll be Sunday night. The reviews coming out of Cannes for Steven Soderbergh's Liberace biopic, Behind the Candelabra, which airs on HBO on Sunday night, have turned it into must-see TV.
We might have been able to guess that Soderbergh's take on the kitsch-addicted superstar would turn out to be "mesmeric, riskily incorrect, outrageously watchable and simply outrageous" (The Guardian). Or that Michael Douglas would be "shrewd, rude, wickedly funny" (Indiewire) in the central role. What is interesting is that the film, which was made for HBO because it was "too gay" for mainstream cinematic release, has turned out to be "both hilarious and heartrending" (The Playlist), an "intimate love story" (Thompson on Hollywood) and Soderbergh's "most emotional and touching work" to date (Hollywood Elsewhere »

18 May 2013 12:50 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
While Spike Lee didn.t change anybody.s worlds with last year.s Red Hook Summer, he has had a lot of people talking about his upcoming Oldboy remake, based on the Korean original. No one really seems to want it, but it is definitely set for an October 11 release. What.s he going to follow that with, a Gone With the Wind remake? No, thank goodness. According to The Wrap, he.s attached to direct Gold for Black Bear Pictures, with Paul Haggis (Crash) on board as a producer.

Leonard Maltin and 'Lady For a Day' at the Paramount
15 May 2013 8:00 AM, PDT | Slackerwood | See recent Slackerwood news »
Tickets are currently on sale for a special screening of Frank Capra's 1933 film Lady for a Day at the Paramount. On hand to introduce the movie, and to talk more about classic films in general, will be film critic and historian Leonard Maltin. Maltin was one of the proponents for making this movie available on Blu-ray, and the event will include a rare 35mm projection of the classic, thanks to a loan from the Capra estate.
Lady for a Day is early Capra, made before he really burst on the scene with his big hit It Happened One Night. It's adapted from a Damon Runyon story by Robert Riskin, who continued to team up with Capra on many other movies in the 1930s and early 1940s.
The movie stars May Robson (whom I know best for her role as the daunting Aunt Elizabeth/Mrs. Carlton-Random in my favorite Bringing Up Baby) as Apple Annie, »

Vin Diesel talks 'Fast & Furious 6,' 'Riddick'... and the status of his Hannibal trilogy (!)
10 May 2013 8:56 AM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
Vin Diesel is about to have a good summer. His most famous character — soulful auto-outlaw Dominic Toretto — is returning to screens in Fast & Furious 6, which marks the long-running franchise’s return to the summer blockbuster season. It’s opening on Memorial Day, and Universal is bullish on its box office prospects. (Fast & Furious 7 is already slated for a 2014 release.)
Universal is distributing another Diesel movie this summer, featuring the actor’s other iconic character: Riddick arrives in theaters in September, 13 years after Pitch Black unexpectedly started the sci-fi franchise and nine years after the so-so box office for The Chronicles of Riddick »

Is The Great Gatsby really a love story?
9 May 2013 6:00 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
The director has made 'a great, tragic love story', but Fitzgerald himself thought his book was more about delusion and failure
Is The Great Gatsby a love story? The new Baz Luhrmann adaptation is being sold as such. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan and boasting a haunting love theme from Lana Del Ray, the film is a "great, tragic love story with action, passion, drama", said director Baz Luhrmann to the Hollywood Reporter, comparing his the casting of Daisy to the search for Scarlett O'Hara in Gone with the Wind. The romance novelist Barbara Taylor Bradford proclaimed the novel to be "the greatest love story ever told". Gatsby can certainly sold that way – but can it be told that way?

With Durbin Gone, Who's Still Around from the '30s?
7 May 2013 3:41 AM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
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.)

'Scandal's' Tony Goldwyn on directing his co-stars: 'They teased me a lot'
2 May 2013 3:00 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
Tony Goldwyn loves acting, indicated by his current success as ever-troubled President Fitzgerald "Fitz" Grant on "Scandal."
He also loves directing, confirmed by his movie work on Hilary Swank's drama "Conviction" and Ashley Judd's romantic comedy "Someone Like You."
Thursday (May 2), he combines those careers as the director of ABC's newest "Scandal" episode, in which he also has considerable acting time as Fitz deals with fallout from dual personal dilemmas: crisis-management expert Olivia Pope's (Kerry Washington) latest rejection of him, and first lady Mellie's (Bellamy Young) threat to expose that affair if he stands in her way of leaving with their infant son.
"I was a little surprised when I read the script," the friendly Goldwyn admits to Zap2it of discovering how much acting he'd be doing while also directing. "I thought, 'Well, Ok. Take a deep breath.' It turned out great, though. It was really fun to have that challenge. »

F. Scott Fitzgerald: Was he actually overpaid for his Hollywood work?
29 April 2013 12:14 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
The Great Gatsby might be one of the season’s most anticipated Hollywood movies, but F. Scott Fitzgerald’s infamous sojourn to Hollywood was a cruel tragedy that humbled one of the century’s great pens. As Some Like it Hot Director Billy Wilder once said, describing the frustration and futility that Fitzgerald encountered in California, “He made me think of a great sculptor who was hired to do a plumbing job. He did not know how to connect the f—ing pipes.”

Move Over, Hollywood
28 April 2013 1:22 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Atlanta — A few years ago, Georgia was locked in a bidding war with North Carolina over the Disney movie, "The Last Song," starring Miley Cyrus.
Both states wanted the movie to film in their state, and North Carolina was close to sealing the deal with an attractive tax incentive package. But Georgia snapped up the production, largely because it had recently expanded its own tax credit for films.
The state hasn't looked back since. Not only are TV shows like "The Walking Dead" and films like "The Hunger Games" sequel filmed in Georgia, but tens of millions of dollars are being invested to build up critical infrastructure. No fewer than five major studio developments or expansions have been announced in recent months with the goal of luring big-budget blockbusters.
"It really is about the whole package," said Lee Thomas, director of the Georgia Film, Music & Digital Entertainment Office. "They can do everything here now. »

Rope of Silicon Movie Club: 'The Outsiders' (1983)
24 April 2013 11:03 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
In 1983, Francis Ford Coppola had plenty of greatness under his belt from The Godfather, The Conversation, The Godfather: Part II and Apocalypse Now, but some may say 1982's One from the Heart was the beginning of the end... at least the end of the Coppola we came to know in the '70s. Sure, The Godfather: Part III saw seven Oscar nominations, but ask anyone and they're sure to point it out as the weakest of the trilogy by a mile. Films such as Peggy Sue Got Married, Dracula and even The Rainmaker aren't half-bad and I'll happily admit to loving 90% of Tetro, but the Coppola star doesn't shine as it once did. Such a situation can result in films being forgotten, overlooked and never revisited again. The lack of appreciation for the last 30 years of Coppola's directorial career has allowed me to easily avoid -- wrongly or not -- »

Time Has Come for Academy Museum (Column)
22 April 2013 10:50 AM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
That there’s still an available building at the northeast corner of Wilshire and Fairfax in Los Angeles for the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures to take over — and that there’s still an Academy Museum of Motion Pictures waiting to be created — testifies to the skepticism one might have for the project.
But I’d prefer to focus on the dream that’s within the grasp of the film academy, and in turn fans of cinema everywhere. This vision long struggling to be fulfilled, at a location long struggling to be properly utilized, could be the start of a beautiful relationship.
I follow the Academy Museum project with more than my fair share of interest. There’s the fact that I cover the Academy – the keeper of the Oscars and a critical treasurer of film history – for Variety. That from the northern windows of our office on Wilshire, I »

DVD Review: ‘Best of Warner Bros. 20 Film Collection: Romance’
16 April 2013 12:26 PM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – With Mother’s Day around the corner, Warner Bros. has released another one of their stellar DVD box sets built around their 100th anniversary — “Best of Warner Bros. 20 Film Collection: Romance.” It may not be the best gift set for everyone but it does offer a strong package for those who like a little emotional manipulation with their popcorn. There are some undeniable classics in this set (along with some questionable choices) but it’s the sheer “something for everyone” quality of the release that makes it memorable.
DVD Rating: 4.0/5.0
Seventy years of romance from 1938’s “Jezebel” to 2008’s “Nights in Rodanthe” are included in this set that includes a book with plot descriptions for each of the films and all of the special features from previous releases. That’s essentially what this is — previous releases compiled into one box set. Literally. The DVDs are the same - transfers, »

How Many of the Movies from Roger Ebert's List of Great Movies Have You Seen?

I've mentioned before how several years ago I created a list using Roger Ebert's Great Movies, Oscar Best Picture winners, IMDb's Top 250, etc. and began going through them doing my best to see as many of the films on these lists that I had not seen as I possibly could to up my film I.Q. Well, someone has gone through the exhaustive effort to take all of the films Roger Ebert wrote about in his three "Great Movies" books, all of which are compiled on his website and added them to a Letterbxd list and I've added that list below. I'm not positive every movie on his list is here, but by my count there are 363 different titles listed (more if you count the trilogies, the Up docs and Decalogue) and of those 363, I have personally seen 229 and have added an * next to those I've seen.

'Go On's' Julie White on how 'Guys and Dolls' saved her from detention
4 April 2013 2:00 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
Julie White was having a terrific week: Her character, Anne on NBC's "Go On," had an important storyline; her indie film, "Language of a Broken Heart," opened; and her voice was the only other one heard in Holland Taylor's one-woman Broadway show, "Ann."
White, who has been an actor for decades, is happy.
"Go On," which airs Thursday, April 4, revolves around a grief counseling group Matthew Perry's character must attend.
"I love that my character is such an unusual character on television," White tells Zap2it of Anne, a lesbian whose partner died. "She is really a woman not about the male gaze at all, and with no apology at all. She is not part of the landscape.
"After you have acted as long as I have, your criteria for a part is, 'Please let it not be embarrassing in any way!' " White says.

John Clark Gable, Clark Gable's son, arrested for DUI
3 April 2013 12:35 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
Clark Gable's son John Clark Gable was arrested under suspicion of driving under the influence after crashing into six parked cars in Malibu, Calif. The 52-year-old was also charged with a hit-and-run.
At the time of the incident, Gable was driving a white Ford pickup near the Malibu Pier. The Los Angeles County Sherriff's Department reported no injuries at the scene.
This is not the first time the "Gone With The Wind" star's son has been in the press in recent years. In April 2012, Gable's 41-year-old girlfriend Christiane Candice Lange was found dead in their home after she accidentally overdosed of prescription drugs.
Though Gable is the son of a Hollywood legend, he never knew his father. Clark Gable died in 1960 at age 59, four months before his son was born. »
