Director Carl Franklin to Helm Corrupt Cop Drama 'City Of Night'
30 May 2012 8:45 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Most recently plying his wares on TV shows such as Starz's “Magic City” and HBO's “The Pacific,” director Carl Franklin has decided to step back into the cinematic arena where he got his start, nine years after he directed the Denzel Washington actioner “Out of Time,” for a dose of shady business with the law.
Deadline reports Franklin has signed on to direct “City of Night,” an L.A.-set thriller written by David Chisholm, best known for writing the Fred Savage film “The Wizard,” peculiarly enough. 'City' follows Emmett Conlin, a rookie cop aspiring to rise through the Lapd ranks through its toughest crime units, until he faces a veteran corrupt cop eager to bring him down. Emmett then becomes the target of a psychological betrayal from within the department, and soon he doesn't know who to trust, or where to run.
The film is purported to be “in »

Michael Moore’s success as a documentary film maker has made his job more difficult because more people refuse to talk to him on camera, he said Sunday afternoon at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York.
“They’re afraid to talk to me, so I have to send in my production assistants to do interviews,” he told actress Susan Sarandon, who interviewed him before taking questions from the audience.

Billy Bob Thornton: 'The Us has the wrong idea about the English'
17 February 2012 2:31 AM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
Billy Bob Thornton thinks there's a strong affinity between the American south and the English. Which explains why three Brits turn up unexpectedly in his latest film, Jayne Mansfield's Car
Billy Bob Thornton fixes me with a laser-eye stare, and briefly bares a mouthful of teeth in his southern-genteel grin. "I love British people," he says. "I always have. Fact of the matter is, my people came from you guys. The south was settled by the English, Scotch and Irish. You get into Minnesota and Wisconsin, that's German and Swedes, but our area is predominantly from the British Isles."
Overlooking the fact that few use "Scotch" any more, and that many Irish people would object to being lumped in with the British Isles, you get his drift: from Arkansas, where Thornton grew up, it probably all looks pretty similar. But it also explains the oddest aspect of his new film, »

The callous lies of Denzel Washington movie titles
8 February 2012 2:55 AM, PST | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »
Denzel Washington is a fine, fine actor. But his movie titles? They lie to us. They lie to us a lot...
I fully appreciate that it’s not an easy job to come up with a sellable title for a film. In an ideal world, it has to convey the subject of what the movie is about, and also be catchy enough, for good reasons, for us to remember.
However, I sat down to watch the new Denzel Washington/Ryan Reynolds flick Safe House last week, and it immediately became clear – and this is only telling you something that’s in the trailer – that the house in question didn’t appear to be very safe at all. Truthfully, it wouldn't be much of a movie if it was.
I then started considering some of the more recent Denzel Washington movies I’d seen of late, and, well, here’s my scientific research. »

Deadline reports that Sony has hired Larry Brenner to adapt the 2010 Danielle Trussoni novel Angelology. Brenner made a bit of a name for himself by having his screenplay Bethlehem accepted into last year’s Black List (which lists the best unproduced screenplays floating around Hollywood). Overbook Entertainment, the production company co-owned by husband/wife team Will and Jada Pinkett Smith will co-produce along with Marc Forster‘s company Apparatus. Sony paid $1 million dollars for the rights to the novel in 2009, a year before it was even published.
Angelology follows a 23-year-old nun named Sister Evangeline who uncovers evidence a war between the Society of Angelologists and the Nephilim, a race of human/angel hybrids that occurred a thousand years ago. She teams up with an Angelologist to stop a group of n’er do wells from harnessing the powers of the Nephilim for their own nefarious gains (I just made »
