Every family has a different set of dynamics for how siblings and parents communicate problems and deal with crises, and writer and director Kirk Jones’s mellow drama Everybody’s Fine explores that idea rather nicely. As four siblings deal with an undisclosed ordeal afflicting one among them, their father, played by Robert De Niro, takes it upon himself to connect with each of them and in the process gets the impression there’s something he’s not being told. A bit uneven at times thanks to the story using random strangers to impart pearls of wisdom or set in motion certain obstacles, where Everybody's Fine really shines is when De Niro goes head to head with his three grown and present children, acted admirably by Drew Barrymore, Kate Beckinsale, and Sam Rockwell. It’s far from perfect, but it’s a touching drama that hits all the right notes. »

Screenwriter and poet who co-scripted films with Fellini, Antonioni and Tarkovsky
The Italian poet, novelist and screenwriter Tonino Guerra, who has died aged 92, brought something of his own poetic world to the outstanding films he co-scripted with, among others, Federico Fellini, Michelangelo Antonioni and Francesco Rosi, but also many non-Italian directors including Theo Angelopoulos and Andrei Tarkovsky. Perhaps his most creative contribution was to Fellini's colourful account of life in a small coastal town in the 1930s, Amarcord (1973), of which he was truly co-author, because the film reflected their common experiences growing up in Romagna.
The two were born in the region a couple of months apart – Fellini in Rimini and Guerra in Santarcangelo, in the hills above the Adriatic resort, the son of a street vendor father.
Guerra's own "amarcord" ("I remember" in dialect) is scattered over many books of poetry and short stories. He first started writing »

Well, it's not specifically only for dudes, but the new trailer for What to Expect When You're Expecting is clearly trying to pull in the male audience with most of the focus being pulled towards the group of guys taking care of their kids. Thankfully, that includes some decent comedy from Rob Huebel, Chris Rock, Thomas Lennon, and more as they try to teach Rodrigo Santoro the rules of hanging out with them and their children. Lennon says not to judge, but this film is desparate to convince guys that this isn't just a typical romantic comedy for the ladies, when the first trailer showed it was exactly that. Watch! Here's the new trailer for Kirk Jones' What to Expect When You're Expecting, from Yahoo: Kirk Jones (Everybody's Fine, Waking Ned Devine) directs What to Expect What You're Expecting, written by Shauna Cross (Whip It) and Heather Hach (Freaky Friday »

British actress Kate Beckinsale returned to the big screen after a long break to reprise her role as sexy vampire Selene in Underworld Awakening.
The fourth chapter in the Underworld horror franchise hit cinemas in January.
Kate will be back in action alongside Mark Wahlberg in Contraband - out in the UK on March 16 - and with husband Len Wiseman's remake of Total Recall, co-starring Colin Farrell and released in August.
So where has she been these past three years? And what's it been like getting back into action-movie mode?
Prior to the recent Underworld adventure, we last saw Kate on screen in 2009 in the drama Everybody's Fine and the poorly-received comic book adaptation Whiteout.
Another film she worked on in 2009 with Matt Dillon and Vera Farmiga went straight to DVD, and she says a Hollywood writers' strike meant there were few projects around.
