Supporting Actors: The Overlooked and Underrated (part 5 of 5)
30 May 2012 10:08 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Gary Oldman as Jackie Flannery in State Of Grace (Phil Joanou, 1990, USA):
Long considered one of the most talented actors in cinema, it’s very strange that his outstanding acting as the younger brother of Ed Harris’ local crime boss in this underrated film doesn’t get talked about nearly enough when discussing Oldman’s body of work. This is a must-see performance for all Oldman fans. For the record, State Of Grace is a far better Irish mob film than The Departed (Martin Scorsese, 2006, USA), primarily because it contains much better acting across the board. Oldman was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (Tomas Alfredson, 2011, UK/France).
Other notable Gary Oldman performances: Prick Up Your Ears (Stephen Frears, 1987, USA), Dracula (Francis Ford Coppola, 1992, USA), True Romance (Tony Scott, 1993, USA), Leon: The Professional (Luc Besson, 1994, France), Air Force One (Wolfgang Petersen, 1997, USA), The Contender (Rod Lurie, »

Baldwin Planning Castle Wedding In September
22 April 2012 7:11 AM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Actor Alec Baldwin is planning a castle wedding in Europe in September.
The Cooler star has just returned from Italy with his new fiancee Hilaria Thomas and now he is hinting that the nuptials will be set in a grand location by asking his Twitter followers for a few suggestions on Friday.
He posted, "Anyone got a castle they're not using in September?"
The tweet prompted followers to offer up suggestions for not only a location but also a wedding band, with some fans noting the 30 Rock star's friend Steve Martin and his bluegrass group the Steep Canyon Rangers might be available.
Baldwin shot that idea down by responding, "Can't afford him!" »
Framing The Fantasy: Interview With ‘Once Upon A Time’ Composer Mark Isham
25 March 2012 6:26 PM, PDT | BuzzFocus.com | See recent BuzzFocus.com news »
With over 125 movie and television credits and growing, Mark Isham, has composed some of the great movie scores in the last three decades including Quiz Show (1994), October Sky (1999), Men of Honor (2000) and Crash (2004). They are a minuscule sample of his memorable works. My personal favorite of his library is his potent and emotionally-packed melodies for The Cooler (2003) where you ride Bernie Lootz’s highs when he’s hot and lows when he is the gutter.
One of Isham’s current jobs is composing for ABC’s fantasy series Once Upon a Time. This is the first in a series of interviews BuzzFocus conducted at Wondercon 2012 with film and TV composers. We spoke with Isham about this ongoing challenge for him and how it’s pushed him creatively in new ways as a composer. But first, take a few minutes to listen to Isham’s music for Once Upon a Time. »

Touch Adds Maria Bello for Guest Arc
It looks like Touch is getting a little touch...of Maria Bello.
According to Deadline, the Fox drama will be adding the Golden Globe nominee for multiple episodes this season. Should the character work out, and the show get its expected season 2 pickup, there's an option for bringing Bello back into the fold. She's set to play a woman with a daughter that possesses the same gift that Jake has, the ability to predict future events based on numbers.
Before landing on Touch, Maria Bello starred in the short-lived adaptation of Prime Suspect for NBC, which had its final episodes burned off in January. Most known for her feature work in the likes of The Cooler and A History of Violence, she's had roles in ER, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and Law & Order: Svu. Aside from Touch, you can next check Bello out »
