Louise Redknapp discusses ageing and why she named a nail polish after her father-in-law
Harry Redknapp is a man of many incarnations: footballer, manager and a man perennially touted for the England job in the past. But it seems safe to say that he has never before been a nail varnish.
And yet, thanks to his daughter-in-law, Louise Redknapp, he is now immortalised as "Harry" – a dusky-lilac lacquer in her new make-up range. The idea, Louise says, was to identify each product as a friend or family member to make them easier to remember. Her husband, Jamie, a former professional footballer turned Sky Sports pundit, is a mushroomy gold varnish. The couple's sons, Charlie, nine, and Beau, four, are both eyeshadow duo pencils.
"I don't think Harry knew before I did it," she admits when we meet in her office in Chelsea, south-west London. "He doesn't get that involved in my make-up products.

American Pie: Reunion (Blu-ray/DVD)
All the American Pie characters we met a little more than a decade ago are returning to East Great Falls for their high-school reunion. In one long-overdue weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn’t and that time and distance can’t break the bonds of friendship. It was summer 1999 when four small-town Michigan boys began a quest to lose their virginity. In the years that have passed, Jim and Michelle married while Kevin and Vicky said goodbye.

Here’s our first look at Ray Winstone’s next, The Hot Potato, a London based gangster yarn featuring Colm Meaney, Jack Huston,David Harewood Phil Davis, Derren Nesbitt, Lois Winstone, Maike Billitis, and Jean Louis Sbille.
So far we’ve seen some nice artwork for the film and the presence of Ray Winstone pretty much guarantees we’ll be on board for this one. The film is shooting now in Belgium and the UK under the direction of Tim Lewiston who also wrote the film.
Before the main course, perhaps you would care for a synopsis as an entrée?

You may not think that a film about a wamed tuber would be up your street, but as it turns out The Hot Potato doesn't have to do with actual potatoes, whether baked or fried. Instead, it's the lower-carb tale of two East End geezers in 1960s London who find themselves in well over their heads when they come into possession of a lump of pure uranium. And here's the very first picture from the film, which stars Ray Winstone and Jack Huston as the two blokes in question.As the blurb has it, "Kenny (Winstone) and Danny (Huston) decide to investigate the value of the ‘potato’ and, to their surprise, find that there is seemingly no end of people willing to pay a high price for it. The pair, ably assisted by Danny’s girlfriend, Carole (Lois Winstone) and shadowed at every turn by the unshakable Harry Fisher (Colm Meaney...

Jack Huston is popping up all over. Who is this guy? Any relation to Angelica, Danny, John, or Walter? Well, it turns out, all of the above. Earlier this week we announced the Roadside Attractions December release of the twenty-seven year old actor's upcoming film Hemingway's Garden of Eden with Mena Suvari. Now the actor is shooting a British crime comedy with Ray Winstone and Colm Meaney called The Hot Potato, the first film directed by vet sound editor Tim Lewiston (he also wrote and produced).

He turned up as a depression vampire victim in Twilight: Eclipse and had small roles in Outlander (2008) with ...

David Chase has gotten the band together, and it's turned into a reunion tour.
The writer-director has been on a nationwide search for young, relative unknowns to star in his untitled rock 'n' roll coming-of-age film, and he's found them in John Magaro, Jack Huston and Will Brill. But he's also brought aboard his old "Sopranos" actor, guitarist Steven Van Zandt, to supervise the music for the film and executive produce.
The music-driven project, which will be Chase's feature directing debut, follows a group of suburban New Jersey guys making their way during the 1960s as a rock band called the Twilight Zones. Shooting is scheduled to begin in January in New York.
Paramount Vantage will release the film, which Chase is producing with Mark Johnson ("Rain Man").
"I am thrilled to be working with Steven again, especially on this particular subject," Chase said. "It's not just that we both...
