'I Didn't Have Any Relationships -- Except My High Heels'
17 May 2013 2:02 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
While you weren't paying attention, Jared Leto was touring the world and playing rock and roll for hundreds of thousands of rabid fans. Except he doesn't like the word "fan," because he finds it insulting. Thirty Seconds to Mars, the band Leto fronts, doesn't have "fans," they have a "family."
"We do a lot of interviews and all these people keep asking us about you," Leto said to the crowd at the New York stop of the Church of Mars show, an aptly titled string of dates during which the band plays in churches. "It's great because I think a lot of bands don't get asked about their ... 'fans'. People sort of scratch their heads and don't really seem to get it. Which is funny, because I think all of you understand what a family is."
To say Thirty Seconds to Mars has been overlooked isn't quite true given the »

Exclusive: Mark Margolis Talks Noah
16 May 2013 1:59 AM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
Proof that anything a mutated neutrino and Roland Emmerich can do, God can do better (and first), Darren Aronofsky's Noah is currently at the pointy end of production. The whole shebang is coalescing into something seriously intriguing - after all, we're talking about the director of Pi, Requiem For A Dream and Black Swan tackling the first ever apocalypse - and our spies tell us that even the big guy upstairs is excited to be involved. Someone else with a tingle of anticipation is Breaking Bad stalwart and old Aronofsky hand Mark Margolis, who plays a fallen angel known as Samyaza in the film. As he explained to Empire, he won't look anything like Breaking Bad's wheelchair-bound enforcer. "I play a 12-foot god," he said, "[and] most of my character will be created through CGI."Shooting in Iceland, Margolis took the mantle of leader of a posse of six-armed angels known as the 'Watchers'. »
'The Great Gatsby' soundtrack and the rich history of the rock star composer
11 May 2013 4:24 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
Much has been made of Jay-z’s involvement with Baz Lurhmann’s epic adaptation of The Great Gatsby. The music mogul has never before lent his name or his talents to a project in this way before (we’re not counting his “inspired by” American Gangster album). Despite the hype, this soundtrack collaboration is fundamentally safe (if seemingly off to a fast start on the charts.). Not only is The Great Gatsby a tent-pole blockbuster with an above-the-title director and major A-list talent, it’s a grandiose celebration of New York jazz age glamour and excess — which in some ways, »

Interview With Simon Horrocks On Third Contact
5 May 2013 6:11 PM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
Third Contact, Simon Horrocks’ directorial debut, was shot on a miniscule budget showing yet again that films don’t need major studio funding in order to be excellent. The reviews for the film so far have been great, with one even referring to it as a “masterful piece of art.”
The film tells the story of Dr. David Wright, a depressed psychotherapist, who embarks on an obsessive investigation after a second patient takes their own life in mysterious circumstances. Wright sets out to find out who or what is behind those deaths before any more lives are lost.
Horrocks is getting ready to kickoff a crowdfunding campaign in order to give his film the release it deserves. In honour of that upcoming campaign, I had the opportunity to talk to him about the film. We discussed his inspiration, why he’s searching for public funding, and much more.

Tribeca 2013: ‘Bottled Up’ mixes humor and drama to good effect
24 April 2013 10:28 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
USA, 2013
Written and directed by Enid Zentelis
There are a great many regions in America for which prescription drug addiction is no joke. In fact, a documentary playing at the Tribeca Film Festival this year, Oxyana, addresses how prescription drugs are devastating West Virginia, and there are precious few laughs to be found there. However, that is not the approach taken by Enid Zentelis’ Tribeca film Bottled Up, which is not quite a comedy but mixes in a fair amount of laughs with the addiction drama that it turns upon.
Faye (Melissa Leo) has a decent life going in a small town in upstate New York. She runs her little “Mailboxes ’N’ Thangs” – where the “Thangs” apparently include coffee, donuts, and piercings – and she still owns the house which has run in her family for generations. The town’s local environmental activist (Josh Hamilton) might even have a crush on her. »

Requiem for a Dream (2000) Review
23 April 2013 7:29 AM, PDT | Best-Horror-Movies.com | See recent Best-Horror-Movies.com news »
Back in college I was the programmer of weekly films shown on campus to unsuspecting freshman and one winter I decided to show the directors cut of Requiem for a Dream. 40 or so kids showed most in pajamas and before the film started I asked if anybody had seen the film before. A couple hands went up and I exchanged a knowing look with those two guys as the lights went dim and we were all subjected to 102 minutes of horror that left one girl vomiting a few people walking out in the middle and the rest dead silent and nearly in tears when the lights came up. »
5 Surprising Personal Passion Projects of Legendary Directors
20 April 2013 11:08 AM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
There’s something inherently lonely and tortured about being a director. Yes, you’re the tyrant of the set and dictator of the vision, but you’re also the man (or woman) behind the curtain, the puppet master who never appears on stage….unless you’re Clint Eastwood or Quentin Tarantino. Or Alfred Hitchcock….or Roman Polanski…Anyway, the point is that you may be the genius behind a film, and celebrated as such, but you’re no superstar. There’s a reason why they are often referred to as voyeurs.
But the upside is that, once you’re an established money-maker, you can afford to be creative in your guises. That is, to put your dream on screen. Most directors have at some stage championed their baby, a cherished passion project which is their love letter to their craft. However, it’s quite galling how this endeavor often falls on deaf ears. »

The James Clayton Column: Corrupted innocence and kids going dark
3 April 2013 5:19 AM, PDT | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »
Feature James Clayton 5 Apr 2013 - 06:36
The release of Spring Breakers leaves James pondering the loss of childhood innocence in the movies...
I love the smell of corrupted innocence in the morning. It smells like victory, and that's a victory that's shared by all parties. The corrupted ex-innocents are happy (they're finally free to embrace their dark side), the corrupting influences are happy (they've achieved their objective) and the audience is happy.
You may protest, but I put it to you that your pious position is all pretence and that you're in a denial. In spite of enthusiastic public support for 'the good' and for purity, really, everyone is rooting for the dark side to do well.
People are perverse and genuinely prefer it when the nasty, the sinister or the unpalatable powers through and pollutes proceedings. Look deep inside yourself and you'll realise that you do want to trek into darkness, »

Tom Hiddleston Talks About the Entrants for the Jameson Empire Done in 60 Seconds Competition
24 March 2013 7:56 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
“If you’re directing a film, putting a film together, a series of choices: a hundred choices, two hundred, three hundred get made along the way, an every single decision is made with your particular taste, and your particular vision.” Tom Hiddleston explains, “even though it’s only 60 seconds long, you get a sense of someone’s taste, which is completely different from person to person, and is why cinema continues to be interesting, because it isn’t made in a factory, it’s made from someone’s heart and head.”
Hiddleston chairs the panel of judges for the Jameson Empire Done in 60 Seconds contest, the winner of which will be announced later this evening. Over the last few years, competition, which runs as part of the Jameson Empire Awards, has gone from being a showcase for some obscenely funny parodies of cult films, to something quite special.

Lena Dunham's 'Girls' has changed the game -- not just for TV, but for indie film
19 March 2013 9:19 AM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
Of all the things that have addled and irritated the watchers of Lena Dunham’s HBO series Girls (the characters are too white and overprivileged! Lena Dunham spends too much time naked!), of all the things that have made a noisy sliver of them feel that the show is worthy of their “hate,” the late-in-the-game revelation that Dunham’s middle-class lost-girl princess Hannah suffers from Ocd seemed all but designed to stoke the hostility of those who dislike Girls but can’t stop watching it. To someone like me, though, who adores the show (I’ll put my passion right out there: In two seasons, »

First Time Fest – Report #2
16 March 2013 4:57 AM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »
The First Time Fest was created by Johanna Bennett and Mandy Ward as a way to showcase new upcoming filmmakers and their works, and to get them a head start in their industry. The festival occurred on March 1st to 4th at The Players Club in New York, which was a club started by some well-known writers and actors, including Edwin Booth (John Wilkes Booth’s brother), Mark Twain, and more.
While the festival does support new filmmakers in their journey, it also awards previous filmmakers who have made names for themselves. Being that this is the first year of the festival, the first ever John Huston Award for Outstanding Achievement in Cinema went to Darren Aronofsky. The award is named in honor of John Huston as he was a esteemed member of The Players Club, as well as considered to be one of the most influential writer, actor, director and producers of all times. »

The 'Sh*t' Joseph Gordon-Levitt Doesn't Bring Into His Home
13 March 2013 5:36 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Joseph Gordon-Levitt spent the first three months of 2013 taking "Don Jon," his debut as a writer and director, on the festival circuit, with stops at Sundance, Berlin and, now, South By Southwest.
"It's a lot of fun to play in front of movie-loving audiences," Gordon-Levitt told HuffPost Entertainment on Sunday, one day before screening "Don Jon" (previously titled "Don Jon's Addiction") at the Paramount Theater in Austin. "This is not just a movie that you're entertained by and then it's over. It's a movie that's trying to provoke you, trying to get you to think, and, I hope, start some conversations."
That should be easy: "Don Jon" is like the "expectations vs. reality" scene in "(500) Days of Summer" writ large and feature-length. Gordon-Levitt's provocative new film tells the story Jon, a New Jersey ladies' man with an addiction to pornography. It's not until he meets two women -- played »

The HeyUGuys Interview: Clint Mansell talks Stoker, Pop Music, and the Cultural Reach of his Work
7 March 2013 4:00 AM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
You might not know Clint Mansell’s name, but you’ll certainly be familiar with his work. Lux Aeterna, a piece he composed for the soundtrack to Requiem for a Dream, has become part of the cultural fabric, featuring in adverts, film trailers and football matches, and he has composed scores for films as diverse as Smokin’ Aces, Doom and Moon. We recently had the chance to speak to the former Pop Will Eat Itself frontman where we discussed his career, the feeling of having his compositions become so ubiquitous, and his work with Park Chan-Wook on the soundtrack to Stoker.
We began by discussing the piano duet played by India (Mia Wasikowska) and Charlie (Matthew Goode) midway through the film, a track that, as Mansell put it, “It needed to be done prior to shooting, so it could be reproduced on camera, so that was in place.”
