'Revenge' season finale: Chat live with Gabriel Mann tonight at 10:00 p.m. Et
23 May 2012 9:02 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
When we last saw Nolan Ross, the tech-whiz billionaire found himself in extreme peril. After 21 episodes of playing the nuisance to his fellow Hamptonites–hacking into computers, installing his trademark whale-cam into every mansion worth spying on, lending his snark to Emily Thorne’s takedown of the rich and powerful–he got outwitted himself. James Morrison’s villain, The White-Haired Man, broke into Nolan’s house and quickly put him in a sleeper hold. If ever there was a gasp-worthy moment that was it, because actor Gabriel Mann has turned Nolan, a character who’s part Mark Zuckerberg, part Oscar Wilde, »

Producer Martin Poll Dead At 89; "The Lion In Winter" Among His Credits
17 April 2012 9:29 AM, PDT | Cinemaretro.com | See recent CinemaRetro news »
Film producer Martin Poll has died at age 89. Poll started in the film industry producing Flash Gordon shorts in Europe before moving to New York and renovating the old Biograph Studio and renaming them Gold Medal Studios. For a time, the facility was very successful and became known as the largest film production facility outside of Hollywood. However, it was as a producer that Poll found his greatest success, including his classic film adaptation of The Lion in Winter. The acclaimed 1968 film, directed by Anthony Harvey, won an Oscar for Katharine Hepburn. Other film credits include The Man Who Loved Cat Dancing, The Possession of Joel Delaney, Night Watch, Nighthawks, Love and Death and The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With the Sea. Poll also served as commissioner of motion picture arts for New York City. For more click here »

The Lion In Winter Producer Martin Poll Dead
16 April 2012 10:43 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Peter O'Toole, Katharine Hepburn, The Lion in Winter Martin Poll, best known for producing Anthony Harvey's 1968 Best Picture Oscar nominee The Lion in Winter, starring Katharine Hepburn as Eleanor of Aquitaine and Peter O'Toole as King Henry II, died of "natural causes" on April 14 according to various online sources. Poll was 89. An Avco Embassy release, The Lion in Winter was considered the favorite for the Best Picture and Best Director Oscars. The film had won the Best Film Award from the New York Film Critics Circle, while Harvey was the year's Directors Guild Award winner. However, Carol Reed's Columbia-distributed musical Oliver! turned out to be the winner in both categories. (Curiously, the previous year another Embassy release, Mike Nichols' The Graduate, unexpectedly lost the Best Picture Oscar to Norman Jewison's United Artists-distributed In the Heat of the Night. But at least Nichols came out victorious. »

Yahoo! Lists the 100 Funniest Movies to See Before You Die
10 April 2012 11:00 AM, PDT | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »
It's not easy to put together a top 100 of just about anything, but the folks over at Yahoo! Movies have really thrown down the gauntlet this time with a list of the 100 Funniest Movies to See Before You Die. In describing the list, they maintain that their goal was to choose the "funniest" movies out there, not necessarily the "best" comedies. With that in mind, you might think they'd stay away from critically acclaimed classics and lean more toward low brow, quick and easy laughfests. But you'd be wrong. There are a lot of classics on this list, everything from The Apartment to Dr. Strangelove to Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times and Buster Keaton's The General. There are also movies on here that aren't really "comedies" per se, such as Pulp Fiction and Martin Scorsese's After Hours. More than anything, this serves as a reminder that what is »

Manhattan Blu-ray Review
16 February 2012 6:24 AM, PST | TheHDRoom | See recent TheHDRoom news »
There was a time, the 1970s and 80s to be precise, where Woody Allen was easily one of the top two or three American filmmakers around. Despite the occasional misstep (Another Woman, September), Allen's writing and directing output during these two decades was among the sharpest, funniest and most observant released by anyone. The winning streak even managed to spill over into the first part of the 1990s, where Allen offered up Husbands and Wives, Bullets Over Broadway and Manhattan Murder Mystery.
By the mid '90s, it appeared that the golden age of Allen was coming to a close. Roughly three years after the infamous Soon-Yi situation arose and torpedoed Allen's public image, his annual creative output started to become redundant and stale. A film would occasionally possess moments that hearkened back to earlier triumphs, but none could shake off the feeling of deja vu.

Romcoms: end of the affair?
10 February 2012 4:06 PM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
From Fred and Ginger to Jennifer and Ashton, romantic comedies used to be one of the safest bets in Hollywood. But it seems that rom is just not into com any more
Is it the end for the romcom? You can imagine the celebrity mag headlines: "Romcom's relationship on the rocks?" "Com: I'm just not that into Rom" "Rom: Com doesn't make me laugh any more."
After all, who says romance and comedy go together like a horse and carriage? It seems to be a chiselled Hollywood commandment that the two shall be forever conjoined in cinematic matrimony, but perhaps it's time they went their separate ways. Sure, they got off to a great start: in those early years it was all fun and games and sparkling repartee, but recently they haven't quite looked the happy couple; the spark just hasn't been there.
They've been stuck in the same repetitive formula: boy meets girl, »

Woody Allen: cinema's great experimentalist
13 January 2012 4:05 PM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
Since the 'early, funny' films, Allen's subject-matter has matured, but there's a line of comic genius that runs from Sleeper through to Midnight in Paris
Thomas Hobbes declared that all laughter depends on sudden contempt, that flash of superiority when the other chap slips on the banana skin and we don't. When we smile, we show our teeth. For this reason he warned against the self-deprecatory gag, for after all who wishes to pull down contempt on himself? No one seems to have told Woody Allen.
Along with Alfred Hitchcock, Allen must be the most recognisable director in the history of cinema. In 1984 an anthology was published devoted to people's dreams about him. To like his early films is to like him; perhaps the peculiar intimacy of his relationship with the audience stemmed from the fact that he had been a stand-up comedian. These films maintained that sense of performing »

Woody Allen Career Retrospective Part 1: The Early Funny Ones
7 January 2012 12:18 AM, PST | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
This month the BFI Southbank in London is playing host to ‘Wise Cracks: The Comedies of Woody Allen‘, a season of the directors top comedic efforts. To coincide with this season I decided to author my own retrospective guide to my all time favourite director in the history of cinema with a three part article discussing all his movies. And not just the comedies.
Actively helming movies since 1969, Woody Allen has been responsible for writing and directing more than 40 films throughout his illustrious career. His influence on cinema is astounding. Many of his movies are masterpieces while the few that are underwhelming still at the very least are among the best films released in that particular year.
The Brooklyn born Allen began his career in show business as a gag writer for stand up comedians and TV sitcoms. Before long he took to the stage himself with his own material and quickly became a star. »
