Watch The Dictator’s New Trailer: Sacha’s Lost In America Again
28 March 2012 4:23 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Ryan Seacrest might not be the most excited person in the world to hear that Sacha Baron Cohen’s latest comedy, The Dictator has a brand new trailer, but comedy fans the world over will rejoice in finally finding out further details of the British comedian’s comic plot.
This latest trailer for the film, which is set for release in May, shows us a little more of what to expect from the comedy, beyond its initially revealed tyrannical satire, and while the storyline of a bad man finding his way to apparent goodness looks a little cliched, there are enough comic beats in the trailer to suggest Baron Cohen can bring the laughs regardless. And the return of his usually rich “Lost in America” theme will no doubt appeal to fans or Borat and Bruno.
The Dictator follows Admiral General Aladeen deposed despotic leader of the fictional Middle Eastern »

Jonathan Demme To Direct 'My Dinner With Andre' Reunion 'Wally And André Stage Ibsen'
28 February 2012 10:03 AM, PST | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Even his detractors must admit that there's a glorious unpredictability in watching the career of Jonathan Demme. In the last decade alone, he's directed two remakes of 1960s classics, documentaries on Neil Young, Haitian activist Jean Dominique and former President Jimmy Carter, indie drama "Rachel Getting Married," episodes of TV series "A Gifted Man" and "Enlightened," and, on the way, an animated adaptation of Dave Eggers' "Zeitoun" and Stephen King time-travel thriller "11/22/63." But his next film? It's something even more unexpected.
The New York Times reports that Demme is teaming up with theater legends Wallace Shawn and André Gregory, who each starred in Louis Malle's "My Dinner With André" and "Vanya On 42nd Street" (the latter of which Gregory co-directed), on a new film entitled "Wally And André Shoot Ibsen," which will shoot in New York in the spring.

Wanderlust – The Review
23 February 2012 11:15 PM, PST | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »
Sometimes film makers can unknowingly tap into a certain public movement or trend when making a piece of entertainment. This can be even more surprizing considering the long gestation period of movies ( usually scripts can collect dust on a desk or shelf before the cameras roll ). The trend I’m referring to with this flick is the recent occupy movement that took root in many cities across the country this past Fall and Summer ( the expanded trailer for this coming Summer’s The Dark Knight Rises seem to be picking up on those protests, too ). Well, before Batman leaps into the economic battlefield, here comes the new comedy from David Wain ( Wet, Hot American Summer and Role Models ) called Wanderlust. In this, a young married couple decide to stop their quest for the ” almighty dollar ” and return to a simpler time of communes ( when hippies walked the Earth! ). Of course »

Paul Rudd Kills A Fly In Hilarious Clip From 'Wanderlust' (Exclusive)
13 February 2012 10:59 AM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
In "Wanderlust," Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston play a Manhattan couple who, following a bit of unexpected unemployment (is there any other kind?), head down South to rebuild their lives. What happens next is like "Lost In America" by way of "Wet Hot American Summer": the couple stumbles onto a commune and begins to realize that maybe winning the rat race is for losers.
Directed and co-written by David Wain ("Whas," "Role Models"), "Wanderlust" promises to be the R-rated comedy all your cool, comedy-nerd friends enjoy. That has much to do with the cast: Wain regulars Ken Marino, Joe Lo Truglio and Kerri Kenney-Silver all co-star with Rudd and Aniston, as does Alan Alda, Justin Theroux, Malin Akerman and Kathryn Hahn.
It's Hahn (best know for supporting roles in "Step Brothers" and "How Do You Know") who steals the spotlight in this exclusive clip above, which deals with the »

Photos: Albert Brooks Lists Home For Sale
9 February 2012 2:16 PM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
The longtime home of actor-director-screenwriter Albert Brooks has come on the market at $6.995 million. The 5,500-square-foot house, which once belonged to Merv Griffin, isn't listed in the Mls and hasn't been for sale for almost 20 years.
Brooks portrayed the brutal gangster Bernie Rose in Nicolas Winding Refn's "Drive," a departure from his usual comedic persona. He was also the voice of Marlin in "Finding Nemo," and wrote, directed and starred in "Defending Your Life." Comic auteur Brooks has crafted some of Hollywood's biggest cult comedies, including "The Muse" and "Lost in America."
The four-bedroom, tennis court estate that he is selling is entered through a long, gated driveway. That spells privacy, big-time. The single-story home is -- according to the listing agent's website -- "reminiscent of a Modern Aspen Ski Lodge or a Balinese Modern Resort." You can take it from there. The home has lodge-pole supports, a ton »
