Scene by Scene: Love’s Young Dream – Devdas
30 May 2012 1:18 AM, PDT | Bollyspice | See recent Bollyspice news »
Ah decisions, decisions, so many decisions! I had the unenviable task of choosing which my favourite Bollywood scene was and as an avid Bollywood fan as you can imagine, I have a lot of favorite films and consequently an unholy amount of favourite scenes. Trying to narrow it down to just one scene from a Bollywood film, was probably one of the most difficult things you could have asked me – a girl who’s been watching Bollywood films ever since she can remember - to do, but just for all you BollySpice fans, I did it. One of the most colourful, dramatic and romantic tragedies ever to be made in modern-day Bollywood, Devdas is probably my only favourite Bollywood film in which everything is magnificent; the sets, the costumes, the characters, the storyline, the songs and of course the actors!

Beautiful New Image Released From The Great Gatsby
28 May 2012 3:00 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Last week the film world went crazy as the trailer for Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation of The Great Gatsby was released. With another 7 months of waiting to go, some fans may be going a little stir-crazy – but don’t worry, as we have a new still to show you to help calm you down!
Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Jay Gatsby, an elusive party-thrower who tries to win back his old love, Daisy (played by Carey Mulligan). From this new image, it seems as if it may be working as the two lean against a huge tree, looking deeply into each other’s eyes. As someone commented on the image, Mulligan does indeed look like a fairy, while DiCaprio looks as decadent as ever. The trailer gave us a good look at the cinematography and mise-en-scene involved and everything seems to have a touch of Luhrmann about it, as we’d »

Buzz Blabber: The Great Gatsby Is Already Capturing Hearts
27 May 2012 3:05 AM, PDT | BuzzSugar | See recent BuzzSugar news »
Between the glittery pictures and the trailer for The Great Gatsby, moviegoers are already looking forward to Baz Luhrmann's film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's famous novel. However, it was a big week for TV, too, and with finales popping off like champagne corks at one of Gatsby's soirees, everyone had something to say about the dramatic season enders of Glee and Revenge. The Great Gatsby might be Baz's next hit "Love Leo, I always envisioned him as Gatsby! The trailer looks great. The scenes, clothes - gosh, I love the roaring '20s! Can't wait until the movie comes out." - BlackKitty "Amazing. Baz has done it again! Buzz, it might be said that the modern music may be used in the same way as done in Moulin Rouge - perhaps as an example of how revolutionary the music was of the time period, like architecture and entertainment? »

‘The Great Gatsby’ starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan – trailer review
25 May 2012 4:44 PM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »
Directed by: Baz Luhrmann
Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan
Rating: Not Yet Rated
Release Date: December 25, 2012
Trailer Score: 9/10
Thoughts by Tsr: As a fan of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby,” I think I’m supposed to be up in arms about this. While I was worried that would be the case, I’m thrilled to say I love this trailer. As with most Luhrmann films it’s an excess of style, but what style that is! And really, it fits well with the excess that is Gatsby’s sham of a life. It remains to be seen if there will be any substance, but with seven months until release these gorgeous images are more than enough to win me over.
I generally hate live action 3D, but this looks like it might be a perfect match for the format. That’s especially true »

New Look at Carey and Leo in 'The Great Gatsby'
25 May 2012 11:57 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
I didn't watch the trailer for Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby, but I did skim through it, just trying to see what it might have to offer. Personally, I think this is a film my expectations will be largely muted until I finally see it in theaters, because all I saw was a lot of Jack Clayton's disappointing 1974 effort starring Robert Redford and Mia Farrow through Luhrmann's wonderful visual prism. Luhrmann's ability to make an attractive feature is unquestionable, but Australia and Romeo + Juliet are not at all interesting as far as I'm concerned. Then I wondered about the 3-D. Why? And with 3-D does that simply mean we're going to get a whole bunch of CG environments? What I really hope is that there is something about the way Luhrmann tells the story that clicks. This material, far more than Australia, opens the door for what he explored in both Moulin Rouge! »

New Image from The Great Gatsby, Starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan
25 May 2012 10:33 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
A new image from director Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby has landed online. We got our first look at the film by way of a trailer earlier this week, and for better or worse it’s undeniably Luhrmann. Many were put off by the use of popular music in the trailer, and to that lot I’d like to ask you to re-watch Moulin Rouge! and Romeo + Juliet and tell me what you were expecting from Luhrmann's spin on Gatsby. The cast is encouraging and the photography looks absolutely phenomenal (I’m actually eager to see the film in 3D). If nothing else, Luhrmann’s Gatsby promises to be completely unlike any other iteration of the material we’ve seen before or are likely to see in the future. This new image is a snapshot of a scene between Leonardo DiCaprio’s Gatsby and Carey Mulligan’s Daisy under the conveniently gorgeous moonlight. »

Beautiful New Image of Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan in The Great Gatsby
25 May 2012 9:04 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
The first trailer and poster landed for Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation of the classic The Great Gatsby landed this week, wonderfully setting the tone for one of the year’s most highly-anticipated films.
It’s one of the finest trailers I’ve seen in a long time, so if you haven’t seen it yet, I’d recommend doing so now.
Following on from that great first look at the film, its UK Facebook page has put out a lovely new image of Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan sharing a moment of seclusion.
“From the uniquely imaginative mind of writer/producer/director Baz Luhrmann comes the new big screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, The Great Gatsby. The filmmaker will create his own distinctive visual interpretation of the classic story, bringing the period to life in a way that has never been seen before, in a film starring »

Bollywood's 'Devdas' in 'Time' list of best millennium movies
24 May 2012 4:32 PM, PDT | The Bollywood Ticket | See recent The Bollywood Ticket news »
'Time' magazine ranked Bollywood film 'Devdas' (2002)—starring Shahrukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai, and Madhuri Dixit—among the top 10 movies of the millennium so far.
'Devdas,' directed by acclaimed filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali, took the No. 8 spot and was the only Indian film on the list, which was published in May.
'Time' film critic Richard Corliss also picked such films as 'Avatar' (2009), 'The Hurt Locker' (2009), 'Moulin Rouge' (2001), 'The Artist' (2011), and 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon' (2000).
Corliss described Khan as an "all-world charismatist" and Madhuri as "a hot number who had danced flamenco on men's libidos for a decade or so before appearing in this worldly-wise role."
"'Devdas' is a visual ravishment, with sumptuous sets, fabulous frocks and beautiful people to fill them; it has a grandeur the old Hollywood moguls would have loved," Corliss wrote.
At the time of its release, 'Devdas' was »
Photos: Nicole, Heidi Dare To Bare At Cannes
24 May 2012 3:00 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Nicole Kidman and Heidi Klum both got flashbulbs, and their owners, popping on Cannes' red carpet on Thursday evening, with a flash of flesh to rival the most shameless A-list wannabe.
Kidman was the star of the show, as the occasion was her film The Paperboy. The Australian actress was flanked by her co-stars - Zac Efron, Matthew McConaughey, Macy Gray and John Cusack - and her director Lee Daniels (whose film Precious was a surprise hit of 2010).
The only visible means of support for Nicole Kidman on the red carpet was Zac Efron
Kidman swapped her earlier press conference demure orange ensemble for a far racier number - a rose-coloured Lavin dress that was full of material, on the skirt at least. Her back was covered only by a metallic strap keeping the whole thing on, and revealed she may not have been on the junket round recently, but »

From the flamboyant mind of Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge!, Romeo Juliet) comes The Great Gatsby, and from the looks of the new trailer, the writer/producer/director brings his usual grand scale flash to the roaring 20s.
Leonardo DiCaprio reteams with his Romeo Juliet director for a big screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, "The Great Gatsby." Shot with 3D cameras, the period piece stars Academy Award® nominee DiCaprio (Blood Diamond, Aviator) as Jay Gatsby, Oscar® nominee Carey Mulligan (An Education) as his mistress, Joel Edgerton (Warrior), Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers), and DiCaprio's real-life buddy Tobey Maguire (Spiderman).

First look - Baz Luhrman’s “Great Gatsby” starring Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio - Video (IrishCentral)
24 May 2012 6:05 AM, PDT | IrishCentral | See recent IrishCentral news »
After months of hearing snippets of news on Baz Luhrman’s “The Great Gatsby,” we’re finally getting a look at it in all its splendour. We would expect no less from the director who brought us “Romeo and Juliet” and “Moulin Rouge”. The adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “Great Gatsby” is set in New York in 1922, when jazz was booming. However, in spite of the popularity of jazz at the time, Luhrman has used the tune “No Church in the Wild” by Kanye West and Jay-z, to add intensity to the trailer. The movie, which looks visually stunning, is set to be released in December 2012. Considering the cast, it’s hard to see where the movie can go wrong. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Gatsby, alongside Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan. Lara Spencer, anchor on "Good Morning America", said the “sizzling chemistry” and “wow, the sexual energy” between DiCaprio »
Nicole Kidman Talks 'Raw And Dangerous' 'Paperboy' At Cannes

Lee Daniels-directed film, also starring Zac Efron and Matthew McConaughey, has met with decidedly mixed reception.

Much ado is made over the glitz and glamour that surrounds the exotic Cannes Film Festival each year. A lot of what brings so many celebrities and so much attention to the international film fest is its location. Who doesn't want to travel to the sandy shores of the French Riviera for "work"? The other big draw, of course, is the opportunity to see movies of all genres, budgets, origin, etc., many of which can get an early jump into awards-season consideration with positive reviews from the notoriously hard-to-please Cannes audiences.
From the outside looking in, "The Paperboy" is one of the films at the festival that has major awards-buzz potential because of its director, Oscar nominee Lee Daniels ("Precious"), and its cast: Nicole Kidman, »
Trailer: Baz Luhrmann’s ‘The Great Gatsby’

The latest (and flashiest) adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic American novel “The Great Gatsby” comes at the hands of style-obsessed director Baz Luhrmann. If you’re familiar with the Aussie director’s other work, such as “Romeo + Juliet” (1996) and “Moulin Rouge!” (2001), this fast-paced, frenetic interpretation of Fitzgerald’s work should come at no surprise.
Director: Baz Luhrmann
Writer: F. Scott Fitzgerald (novel), Baz Luhrmann and Craig Pearce (Screenplay)
Studio: Warner Bros Pictures
Cast: Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Joel Edgerton, Carey Mulligan
Release: December 25, 2012

Short Rounds: Baz Luhrmann, Museums and Learning Through Cinema
23 May 2012 7:15 PM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »
The trailer for The Great Gatsby has hit and the internet is aflutter. Personally, I think it looks like an over-designed mess that may end up ignoring its characters altogether in the interest of showcasing some over-the-top parties. Moulin Rouge! filtered through Party Monster, if you will. However, it is a wonderful excuse to talk about Baz Luhrmann’s other 2012 project. In conjunction with the Metropolitan Museum’s new exhibition Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations the Australian director has produced a series of bite-sized short films. Miuccia Prada and Elsa Schiaparelli sit across a dark dining room table, discussing fashion. The latter designer, who died 39 years ago, is played by Judy Davis. The shorts are featured in the museum’s exhibition...

About That 'Great Gatsby' Trailer ...
23 May 2012 5:20 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Jay-z! Kanye! Jack White Doing U2! The trailer for Baz Luhrmann's upcoming adaptation of "The Great Gatsby" caused a bit of an uproar as soon as it landed on the internet on Tuesday afternoon. Some thought it was a beautiful and extremely encouraging sign for what's to come, while others found it overblown and generally disappointing.
Here at HuffPost, two of our editors -- Kia Makarechi on Entertainment and Andrew Losowsky on Books -- found some time to chat about the film's casting and overall aesthetic. Read their comments on the trailer below, vote in the poll that follows and weigh in with your own thoughts in the comments. The film hits theaters on Dec. 25.
Makarechi: First off, I'm a bit ashamed to admit I had high hopes. The song -- I don't think the anachronism bothered me so much as its irrelevance. It's too obvious to use for anything other than mood. »

D'oh! of the Week: 'The Great Gatsby' trailer goof
23 May 2012 3:17 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
Like his other films Moulin Rouge, Romeo + Juliet, and Strictly Ballroom, the trailer for Baz Lurhmann’s take on the classic novel The Great Gatsby is crammed with bunches of stuff, from sparkly confetti to fringe-y flapper dresses, extravagant pools to the bright lights of 1920s Times Square. So perhaps it shouldn’t be so shocking that one of those period details isn’t quite right.
Thanks to eagle-eyed Twitter follower @AmyOriss, I was alerted to the fact that the film misspells the famed Ziegfeld Follies:

Opulence Aplenty in the New 'Great Gatsby' Trailer! (Updated with Movie Poster)
23 May 2012 11:55 AM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »
What filmmaker would you choose to bring F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" (back) to the big screen? Scorsese? Spielberg? Fincher? Ratner? Well, Warner Bros. went with a pretty interesting choice in Baz Luhrmann, the visual lunatic who gave us Strictly Ballroom, Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge!, and Australia. (Did that last one ever hit theaters? I digress.) This highly-anticipated adaptation isn't due to hit theaters until Christmas, but WB has graciously dropped a swanky new trailer on us. Half of twitter responded to the promotional clip with an air of "Wtf?" although much of the consternation seems to focus on the choice of songs used in this trailer. Visually, however, you have to admit that this flick looks like something pretty...

Everything We Know About 'The Great Gatsby' So Far
23 May 2012 9:00 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Just about every high schooler is practically forced at gunpoint to read F. Scott Fitzgerald's 1925 novel "The Great Gatsby," perhaps because no other work both celebrates and condemns the promise of the American Dream with such insight. Now "Moulin Rouge!" director Baz Luhrmann is going to sprinkle his particular brand of pizzazz all over it.
Reuniting with "William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet" poster boy Leonardo DiCaprio, Luhrmann is staying true to the story of self-made man Gatsby and his doomed love affair with Daisy Buchanan, while adding contemporary style and music for what's sure to be an intoxicating cocktail of the Prohibition era. Consider this your invite to Gatsby's West Egg soiree.
Release Date: Dec. 25
