Cannes Film Festival 2013: 'Inside Llewyn Davis' review
19 May 2013 4:00 AM, PDT | CineVue | See recent CineVue news »
★★★★★
Cannes has always been good to the Coens, the festival's heady blend of arthouse and popularity suiting them down to the ground. In 1991, Barton Fink won the Palme d'Or as well as acting and directing awards. Fargo and The Man Who Wasn't There both won directing gongs and they've had seven films in competition. Their latest work, Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) - a picaresque odyssey in the life of an also-ran folk songster - must be a firm favourite for a prize in this edition as well. It's the early sixties, well before Dylan, Phil Ochs and Peter, Paul and Mary, and folk singer Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) is waiting for his big break.
It's winter in New York and his adventures are both comically trivial (he loses a friend's cat) and potentially dramatic (he's just got his friend's wife, Jean (Carey Mulligan), pregnant). Davis is beginning to realise that he may not fulfil his dreams. »

Cannes 2013: The Coen brothers' 'Inside Llewyn Davis' is a close-to-the-bone tale of the early-'60s New York folk scene, but it is also (what else?) a perverse Coen stunt
18 May 2013 4:00 PM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
Joel and Ethan Coen have never made a movie that didn’t have at least a few big bubbles of perversity percolating through it. That said, one of the ways that I divide their work in my mind is that there are the Coen brothers films in which the perversity stays, for the most part, just below the surface (Blood Simple, Fargo, A Serious Man), which tend to be the Coen brothers movies that I love best. And there are the ones in which perversity stands up and pokes you in the eye (Barton Fink, The Hudsucker Proxy, O Brother, »

Monsters University Announced For 67th Edinburgh International Film Festival
16 May 2013 3:48 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Continuing its long standing tradition of unveiling the latest Disney•Pixar titles weeks before their UK releases, this year’s Edinburgh International Film Festival will play host to Monsters University.
The film, which is a prequel to Monsters, Inc., will act as the festival’s Family Gala, and is scheduled to screen at the Festival Theatre on Sunday June 23, with a special schools screening taking place the next day.
Directed by Dan Scanlon (Cars), Monsters University examines the relationship between Mike (Billy Crystal) and Sulley (John Goodman) during their days at university, when they weren’t necessarily the best of friends.
Joining Crystal and Goodman on the voice cast are Helen Mirren (Red), Steve Buscemi (Fargo), Aubrey Plaza (Safety Not Guaranteed), Nathan Fillion (Slither) and John Krasinski (It’s Complicated).
The 67th Edinburgh International Film Festival runs from June 19 – 30, and will be bookended by Breathe In and Not Another Happy Ending. »

Meryl & Julia Kick Off Oscar Season With 'August: Osage County'
10 May 2013 6:35 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Proof it's never too early for Oscar season: This week, trailers for "Captain Phillips," "Gravity" and, now, "August: Osage County" were released, trumpeting what look like awards-worthy performances and Best Picture bona fides.
It's the trailer for "August: Osage County," however, that should have Oscar watchers standing at attention: Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Tracy Letts, the screen adaptation stars past Oscar winners Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts and Chris Cooper, plus Ewan McGregor, Benedict Cumberbatch, Margo Martindale, Abigail Breslin, Juliette Lewis, Dermot Mulroney and Sam Shepard. Oscar king Harvey Weinstein produced the film alongside George Clooney.
"Life is very long," Shepard, as Weston family patriarch Beverly, says at the beginning of the first "August: Osage County" trailer. Not for Bev, as it turns out: his mysterious death forces the fractured Weston family to reunite, bringing old rivalries back to the forefront. Streep plays Bev's wife, Violet, a role »

Coens' Cannes-Bound 'Inside Llewyn Davis' Gets New Date, Poster and Trailer Updated
8 May 2013 11:14 AM, PDT | Thompson on Hollywood | See recent Thompson on Hollywood news »
Updated: A new Red Band trailer and poster for "Inside Llewyn Davis" have just been released. Check out both below. Earlier: CBS Films is finally going to show its true colors under new co-presidents Terry Press and Wolfgang Hammer. They scooped up the Coen brothers' latest indie feature, "Inside Llewyn Davis," with an eye on award season. One reason it has a shot: it's about the struggles of an artist, a Village folk musician. That's inside the Academy's sweet spot. So are Oscar-winning writer-directors, Joel and Ethan Coen ("Fargo," "No Country for Old Men"). With Oscar campaign veterans Press, producer Scott Rudin and Strategy PR's Cynthia Swartz behind it, the film has a shot. Sure enough, "Inside Llewyn Davis" is going to Cannes next week, where the Coens will compete for the eighth time for the Palme d'Or (they won for "Barton Fink" and took home best director for »

HBO & Playtone Set ‘Olive Kitteridge’ Miniseries With Lisa Cholodenko Helming Frances McDormand And Richard Jenkins
1 May 2013 3:59 PM, PDT | Deadline New York | See recent Deadline New York news »
Exclusive: HBO has set The Kids Are All Right helmer Lisa Cholodenko to direct and Frances McDormand and Richard Jenkins to star in a miniseries adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Elizabeth Strout novel Olive Kitteridge. Playtone partners Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman will be executive producers along with McDormand and her As Is banner and Jane Anderson. Anderson adapted the book into the four-hour mini. David Coatsworth is producing. Olive Kitteridge tells the alternately poignantly sweet, acerbically funny, and devastatingly tragic story of a seemingly placid New England town wrought with illicit affairs, crime and tragedy, told through the lens of Olive, whose wicked wit and harsh demeanor mask a warm but troubled heart and a staunch moral center. McDormand plays the title character and Jenkins plays her husband, Henry. Getting this cast, director and a four-hour commitment from HBO is a real testament for McDormand. I’ve been following this one for years, »

Pain & Gain
27 April 2013 12:53 PM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »
Pain & Gain
Directed by: Michael Bay
Cast: Mark Wahlberg, Anthony Mackie, Dwayne Johnson, Tony Shaloub, Ed Harris
Running Time: 1 hr 50 mins
Rating: R
Release Date: April 26, 2013
Plot: Three Miami bodybuilders (Wahlberg, Mackie, Johnson) team up to rob a wealthy sandwich shop owner (Shaloub).
Who’S It For? Fans of Wahlberg, Johnson, and especially Michael Bay can not miss this movie. For all the aggressive ugly content within Pain & Gain, whether they be frustrating, terrible, or both, bulking up on tolerance for Pain & Gain’s shallow expressions is necessary.
Overall
Inject steroids into the Coen Brothers, give them buzzcuts, constantly place them around American flags, take away half of their clever brain cells, but inflate the ones that love an irresistibly crazy idiot plot (with madcappery that seems to go beyond regular human potential). What you’re left with is Pain & Gain, a superbly irreverent American crime story from a director »

‘Pain & Gain’ a first for director Michael Bay: mostly gain, little pain

Pain & Gain
Directed by Michael Bay
Written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely
USA, 2013
If cinema has anything to say about it, the modern American dream is best typified by a grandiose level of entitlement in those who covet it most of all. Just a month ago, we saw Spring Breakers, a nightmarish, neon piece of grotesquerie, compelling experimental art about nubile young women trying to attain their hedonistic Western utopia by stealing from and killing people who dared get in their way, consequences be damned. And now, we have Michael Bay’s loopy, adrenaline-laced echo of the same concept, Pain & Gain; this time, it’s not a quartet of college students, but a trio of bodybuilders, who use force to achieve their dream and never think beyond themselves.
Based on a true story so jaw-dropping that, as one character tries to remove a person’s fingertips in a charbroiled fashion, »

Zoe Kazan Talks Twin Roles Of "The Pretty One' & How 'In Your Eyes' Is "Like Joss Whedon Does Nicholas Sparks"
25 April 2013 2:50 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
After winning the Best Actress Award at the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival for Bradley Rust Gray’s “The Exploding Girl,” Zoe Kazan added a big-budget rom-com (“It’s Complicated”) and more indie dramas (“Meek’s Cutoff”) to her resume, starred on Broadway (“A Behanding in Spokane”) with Christopher Walken, and wrote the charming (and underrated) screenplay for “Ruby Sparks,” in which she starred with her longtime partner Paul Dano. As if that’s not enough, the 29-year-old is back at Tribeca, this time playing identical twin sisters in “The Pretty One.” First-time writer/director Jenée Lamarque’s quirky film also stars Jake Johnson (“New Girl,” “Safety Not Guaranteed,” “Drinking Buddies”), Ron Livingston (“Office Space,” “Swingers”), and John Carroll Lynch (“Fargo”), but the film centers around Kazan’s layered performance as Laurel and Audrey, sisters whose similarity stops at genetics. Laurel is an eccentric wallflower who has never blossomed; she lives at home, »

‘Fargo’ is a laughable, darkly comic tale with an emphasis on the dark

Directed by Joel Coen
Written by Joel and Ethan Coen
1996, USA
The Coen brothers are a breed of their own, seamlessly melding quiet, unrelenting humor with often brutal violence. Their films present wild irony, eccentricity, and post-modern takes on classic genre films. I have always been a huge fan, from Raising Arizona to No Country for Old Men. For years, nearly the only Coen bros. film I had not seen was Fargo, which is a pity because Fargo brought them their first awards for writing and directing. Ahead of their Cannes debut of Inside Llewyn Davis, I finally sat down to witness the dry wit saturating the story of police chief Marge Gunderson.

5 Biggest Best Picture Oscar Upsets Of The Past 20 Years
21 April 2013 10:43 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Usually the movie that wins Best Director also wins Best Picture, but it’s not always the case. “Argo” didn’t win Best Director mostly because Ben Affleck wasn’t even nominated. The last time a movie won only one of the two while being nominated for both was “Crash” winning Best Picture while Ang Lee won Best Director for “Brokeback Mountain.”
It’s easier to call out an upset immediately or shortly after the winners are announced. But after time, people will have an epiphany and either downgrade the severity of the upset or determine that it wasn’t an upset to begin with. When a movie only wins one, an upset could be accredited to one, both, or neither of the categories. These upsets will only be accredited to the Best Picture category.
This list will have upsets that won either both or just Best Picture…

Carter Burwell Set To Score Thor: The Dark World
19 April 2013 10:17 AM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »
Marvel officials have confirmed the first visuals from Thor: The Dark World will be released next week, on Tuesday, April 23rd, ready to run theatrically with the international release of Iron Man 3. Holding us over until then, Disney recently released the first teaser poster and it reveals what’s been a mystery for quite some time: who will score the Alan Taylor-directed sequel? The composer of the original 2011 Thor film, Patrick Doyle, was said to be in early talks to return, but it appears that veteran Carter Burwell has been tapped to score the film, which is the second “Phase Two” expansion of Marvel’s Cinematic Universe! Beyond the first Twilight film and two sequels, Carter Burwell has composed the scores for True Grit, Fargo, Where the Wild Things Are, and No Country for Old Men. Thor: The Dark World would be Burwell’s first superhero flick, but what do you think? »
