Five Reasons You Should be Watching ABC's "Flash Forward"
25 November 2009 10:01 AM, PST | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »
Here at AfterElton.com we're usually all about the gay — Torchwood, Brothers & Sisters, Adam Lambert. But just like all of you, gay isn't the only thing we are and I occasionlly make time to watch a show without any gay/bi men on it. I know, I know! What a concept!
Case in point, one of my favorite shows of the fall season is ABC's Flash Forward — even though the gayest thing about it is the fact that Joseph Fiennes played gay in Running with Scissors.
Shocking, I know. A scripted program on ABC without a 'mo. But even so uit has its charms. I hereby present five reasons you should be watching.
1) Stuff happens, questions get answered.
Unlike certain shows — yes, I'm talking to you Fringe — so far Flash Forward hasn't gone off on endless tangents having nothing to do with the show's overarching mystery. Yes, I know the »

Free Flick Fridays:[p]Prelude To a Kiss
17 July 2009 12:00 AM, PDT | TribecaFilm.com | See recent Tribeca Film news »
Prelude To a Kiss (1992) Dir. Norman Rene Rom-com sweetheart Meg Ryan (Serious Moonlight [Tff '09], You've Got Mail, When Harry Met Sally) is in her element as Rita Boyle. Quirky and free-spirited, Rita was born to a wealthy family, only to join the Socialist party (unbeknownst to her parents). Despite her beauty, youth, and health, Rita holds a very pessimistic view of the world. Alec Baldwin (30 Rock, My Sister's Keeper, The Good Shepherd, Running With Scissors) is Peter Hoskins, a slightly-timid-yet-charming man who quickly falls for Rita despite her strange ideas about the world. The couple forms an endearing pair, and it all plays out very nicely, very by-the-book romantic comedy. That is of course, until their wedding day, when an eccentric, elderly man named Julius (played by Sydney Walker) crashes the wedding and requests a kiss from the bride before he continues on his way.

August: Osage County (The Movie)
7 July 2009 10:20 AM, PDT | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
Cast This!
But before the movie... the tour! It starts in just under three weeks in Denver. I'm not getting paid for this but I'm going to shill because live theater needs to be promoted. It's so much cooler than TV ... even if Corporate America can't profit off of it as much (finite audience = number of seats in house) and thus makes it seem uncool by ignoring it or dismissing it as irrelevant.
Oscar winner Estelle Parsons, 81, headlines the August tour
And given that The Movie -- all caps because if it's any good it'll be Big -- is going to be the subject of much discussion whenever it begins to film and especially once it's in theaters, you'll want to be in the know early on. Even if you're not normally a theater person. If you haven't been following theatrical buzz and awardage these past couple of years, it's »

Julianne Moore + Annette Bening. Rejoice!
2 July 2009 8:00 AM, PDT | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
Lisa Cholodenko is flirting with me*. How else to explain the multi-orgasmic news that the writer/director of High Art, one of my all time favorite lesbian movies, is making another and she's making it with two actresses whom I practically can't worship more than I already do? Yesterday, production supposedly began on The Kids Are All Right which will star Julianne Moore and Annette Bening as lovers who've raised two kids together. Their two teenagers (played by Josh Hutcherson and Alice in Wonderland herself Mia Wasikowska) decide to meet the original sperm donor (Mark Ruffalo).
Psycho, The Hours, Running With Scissors
Both actresses have played lesbians before. Moore re-interpreted Psycho's Lila Crane as a record shop dyke and she definitely didn't want to sleep with her husband in The Hours Come to bed, Laura BrownFor Bening's part she ditched her screen husband for some self-actualizing labia time in Running With Scissors. »

Top Ten: After Kate Winslet, Who?
4 March 2009 10:48 AM, PST | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
Kate Winslet finally won her Oscar, delighting the bulk of fans who have been rooting for her since she dreamt of Hollywood in '94 -- 'they're desperately keen to sign me up!' -- or nearly drowned in '97. She never let go. So, who is next?
Or rather... who is most overdue?
Contrary to popular belief, it ain't easy to win an Oscar. It certainly wasn't easy for Kate the Great. You need more than an accent, a disability, a good or popular movie, old age makeup or mimicry skills. You also need star charisma, a role that compliments or complicates that charisma and media support. Above all else you need luck combined with surgically precise good timing. History is full of performers who never won the movie's top prize despite plentiful contributions to the art of acting.
For the following list I'm ignoring outstanding performers who have never »
