Film Review: Lauren Ambrose Shines in Heartbreaking Indie ‘About Sunny’
24 May 2013 7:31 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – In the annals of bad parenting portrayed on film, the heroine of Bryan Wizemann’s 2011 indie drama is a special case indeed. Though we watch helplessly as she makes countless bad decisions guaranteed to send her young daughter to intensive therapy, we don’t regard her a sinister figure on the order of Monique’s monstrous matriarch in “Precious.” Our gaze is one of empathy.
Rating: 3.5/5.0
That’s because Wizemann’s film is remarkably observant in its exploration of the factors that led this single mother, Angela, to commit such desperate acts. She embodies the anxiety and rage of a working class that feels utterly abandoned by its own country. It’s difficult to be a nurturing parent when you’re living from paycheck to paycheck while struggling to keep your head above water in a society consistently at odds with your needs. Yet instead of transforming the tale into a political polemic, »

First trailer for brilliant French thriller The Returned

Trailer Louisa Mellor 24 May 2013 - 12:45
French supernatural thriller The Returned is coming to Channel 4 very soon, and well deserves your time...
If you watch just one exquisitely made, atmospheric, eight-part supernatural French drama set in a remote mountain village this year, make sure it's The Returned (Les Revenants).
Written and directed by Simon Werner a Disparu's Fabrice Gobert, The Returned channels the best of David Lynch, Six Feet Under and much more, by telling a human drama story with a fantastic premise.
No doubt thanks to the success of, amongst others, The Killing, Channel 4 is bringing us its first subtitled TV import for some years, and has demonstrated real savvy and taste in its choice. The series picked up accolades when it aired in France last year, meaning, thankfully, that a second series is currently being written for transmission in 2014.

Ang Lee drops out of FX drama pilot 'Tyrant' due to demanding schedule
20 May 2013 5:17 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
FX's coup of landing two-time Oscar winning director Ang Lee to direct the network's drama pilot "Tyrant" has hit a major snag. Lee has informed executive producer Howard Gordon ("Homeland") that he's no longer able to participate in the project.
Deadline reports that Lee's enthusiasm for "Tyrant" simply couldn't combat the physical and mental exhaustion he feels after four and a half years of shepherding "Life of Pi" to the screen and through the Hollywood awards circuit. Lee is currently fulfilling his duties as a juror at the Cannes Film Festival but apparently isn't ready to take on another directing project just yet.
"Tyrant" had been scheduled to begin production this summer and has been expected to earn a series order from the network. But first, FX will need to find another director.
Gideon Raff wrote the pilot's script about an unassuming American family drawn into the workings of a turbulent Middle Eastern nation. »

Our Six Feet Under–Style Good-bye to The Office
16 May 2013 9:30 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
After nine years, 200 episodes, and a pile of Dundies, The Office is airing its series finale tonight. It's an impossible task, really — series finales always come with highly charged expectations. Ross and Rachel better end up together. Vic Mackey better get what's coming to him. And if they don't explain what that damn island is, I'll never love another TV show again as long as I live. To help alleviate some of this pressure, we decided we'd help The Office reach its conclusion by channeling one of the greatest series finales of all time: Six Feet Under. Cue up the Sia, and grab a tissue or two. Here's how everything ends for the beloved (and not-so-beloved) Dunderheads. »

Several pilots didn't make the final cut and won't be seen including the family of government-sanctioned assassins drama "Boomerang," the adaptation of Lauren Oliver's book trilogy "Delirium" about a world where love is illegal, the legal interns workplace comedy "To My Assistant," the U.S.S. Lexington-set "The Wild Blue," and "The List" about the hunt for a thief who stole a file containing the secret identities of people in the Witness Security Program,
