Release Date: May 24, 2013 (Chicago)

Who’S It For? If you’ve ever felt aloof in your twenties, or re-tweeted Lena Dunham, you might want to take a look at this one.
Overall
In this era when a New York twenty-something girl can’t make a screenplay out of her journal without it being compared to “Girls,” I am not reminded of Lena Dunham’s popular boob toob program, but of Lola Versus, a Haagen Dazs date from last year you might have experienced and soon forgot. Directed by Daryl Wein and co-written with Zoe Lister Jones, Lola Versus was a film that also starred Frances Ha lead Greta Gerwig as the title character, »

Frances Ha – The Review
23 May 2013 8:46 AM, PDT | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »
Here’s a film that takes a look at modern twenty-somethings in a fresh way. While in earlier generations, those in that age bracket (if they were fortunate to do four years of higher education, or a military stint) would whip off their cap and gown and settle into a steady job and perhaps start a family (after finding that dream suburban home). For many college grads today, those post-school years can be the start of a nomadic limbo, drifting from job to job and apartment to apartment, even returning to the family nest (insisting to the parents that this is just temporary). The title character of Frances Ha doesn’t resort to that, but she is sort-of floating without a clear destination in sight. But thanks to Greta Gerwig, the film’s star and co-writer, we’re rooting for her even as she takes a ill-planned detour. Of course »

Listen To An Exclusive Track From Fall On Your Sword's Score To Wikileaks Doc 'We Steal Secrets'
17 May 2013 7:15 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
We've had our ears on composer duo Fall On Your Sword for a while now. The duo have become some of the most in-demand musicians in the indie world over the last few years, thanks to the works on "Another Earth," "Nobody Walks," "Lola Versus" and "28 Hotel Rooms," among others, and we named them as one of our 5 Composers On The Rise earlier this year. Which means that we're delighted to this morning be exclusively debuting a new track from the pair's score to "We Steal Secrets: The Story Of Wikileaks," the latest film Oscar-winning "Taxi To The Dark Side" director Alex Gibney. The film, which sees Gibney delve into the story of Julian Assange, and his principal source Bradley Manning, won rave reviews at Sundance, and is hitting theaters on Friday May 24th, while Fall On The Sword's soundtrack is released the Tuesday before, on May 21st.

'Frances Ha' review: Greta Gerwig gives a masterful tour de hapless performance
17 May 2013 6:00 AM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
Greta Gerwig makes "hapless" a happening thing in "Frances Ha." Which is no surprise, because she's spent her brief career mastering variations on a hapless theme.
Gerwig ("Lola Versus," "Greenberg") and director Noah Baumbach ("Greenberg," "The Squid and the Whale") team up to give us the quintessential Greta time-capsule picture, a movie that sums up the navel gazing of Generation Y and summons up every Gerwig character from the era in one giddy yet wistful package.
Frances (Gerwig) is an exemplar of a sort of age-specific form of denial. A Sacramento native, she's settled in New York to become a modern dancer. She's gawky and a little awkward, so that isn't really working out. She can't commit to her boyfriend because she won't leave behind her "same person with different hair" best friend, Sophie (Mickey Sumner), her true other half. But Sophie moves out on her.
Frances is 27, under-employed, and »

Who directed 'Come Out and Play'? EW investigates the mystery of Makinov -- Special Report
25 March 2013 12:39 PM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
In the new horror movie Come Out and Play a holidaying couple, played by Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Lola Versus) and Vinessa Shaw (2006’s The Hills Have Eyes), visit an island off the coast of Mexico where they discover the local children have murdered the adults. But the most bizarre aspect of the film, which began its platform release on March 22 and is currently available on VOD, is the identity of its director, who goes by the mono-moniker of “Makinov” and refuses to reveal his face or real name.
Come out and Play debuted last September at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival. »

Exclusive: Ebon Moss-Bachrach Talks Come Out and Play, Masked Director Makinov
23 March 2013 3:00 AM, PDT | ShockYa | See recent ShockYa news »
With a healthy list of credits spanning studio fare (“Mona Lisa Smile,” “Stealth”), television (“Damages,” HBO’s “John Adams”) and the independent arena (“Breaking Upwards,” “Higher Ground,” “Lola Versus”), Ebon Moss-Bachrach is a quintessential talented character actor — able to swing effortlessly and, more importantly, believably from genre to genre. In the unusual new horror film “Come Out and Play,” alongside Vinessa Shaw, he plays one half of a happy couple who go to Mexico for a romantic getaway, and end up stranded on an island full of murderous children. It’s based on Juan José Plan’s 1976 Spanish film “El Juego De Niños,” but the parallel story of the movie’s production may be just [ Read More ]

Lena Dunham's 'Girls' has changed the game -- not just for TV, but for indie film
19 March 2013 9:19 AM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
Of all the things that have addled and irritated the watchers of Lena Dunham’s HBO series Girls (the characters are too white and overprivileged! Lena Dunham spends too much time naked!), of all the things that have made a noisy sliver of them feel that the show is worthy of their “hate,” the late-in-the-game revelation that Dunham’s middle-class lost-girl princess Hannah suffers from Ocd seemed all but designed to stoke the hostility of those who dislike Girls but can’t stop watching it. To someone like me, though, who adores the show (I’ll put my passion right out there: In two seasons, »

U.S. Trailer For Olivier Assayas’ Something In The Air
14 March 2013 2:43 PM, PDT | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »
Something in the Air (Apres mai) is Olivier Assayas‘ follow-up to Carlos, a sprawling five-hour epic of ’70s terrorism, which also harks back to ‘Cold Water,’ but as a softer, tender and dispassionate semi-autobiographical reflection on an equivalent period. After its premiere at the Venice Film Festival last year a much more genteel companion work to Carlos is now coming to theaters stateside via Sundance Selects on May 3rd, 2013. Therefore, the first domestic trailer for Something in the Air has arrived, featuring examination of sex, drugs, rock ‘n’ roll and revolution — a portrait of a time too intense to last forever. The coming-of-age...

5 March 2013 11:10 AM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
"Sometimes it's good to do what you're supposed to do when you're supposed to do it." IFC Films has finally debuted the trailer for Noah Baumbach's new film Frances Ha, starring and co-written by actress Greta Gerwig (seen in Greenberg, Arthur, The House of the Devil, Damsels in Distress, To Rome with Love, Lola Versus). Yes indeed, this is a quirky B&W New York City-set drama about a fun young girl trying to find her place in life. I saw the film at the Telluride Film Festival last year and really enjoyed it, this trailer sums up how much fun it is in two minutes without giving away too much of the story either. I recommend watching. Watch the full theatrical trailer for Noah Baumbach's Frances Ha, in high def from Apple: An aspiring dancer (Gerwig) moves to New York City and becomes caught up in a whirlwind of flighty fair-weather friends, »

Ru? Instant Reaction Review Podcast Ep. 42 – Promised Land, Best Movies Of The Year Lists And Our Own Spectacular Movie Awards
30 January 2013 4:10 PM, PST | AreYouScreening.com | See recent AreYouScreening news »
We caught up with Promised Land, but couldn’t give it quite a full show, because we had our very own awards to do, and we wanted to get our Top Ten lists out.
A surprising film, not least simply for its ability to avoid preaching at you and deliver a story. Matt Damon was great, and the overall feel of the movie delivered far better than so many in this “political position” pseudo-genre.
Moving on, we had our first annual awards, which I have dubbed the Ru? Spectaculars. These awards go to our picks for the standard categories, but the rule is that these picks have to be in that special class of “can’t get nominated for any other awards.”
Our winners, and Top lists are below, but you’re going to have to tune in for the full story.

'End of Watch,' 'Ivan's Childhood' and 'The Paperboy' On DVD and Blu-ray This Week
22 January 2013 7:30 AM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
End of Watch End of Watch made my Top Ten Movies of 2012 so of course I'm going to recommend it. I haven't yet listened to writer/director David Ayer's audio commentary, but I'm looking forward to it as Blu-ray.com's review makes it sound incredibly informative: Writer/director David Ayer offers a scene by scene breakdown of End of Watch, discussing the authenticity of the film at great length, touching on the decision to avoid including a single corrupt cop, providing insight into development and implementation of the multi-camera narrative, and spending plenty of time on everything from the script to the performances to the Pov shifts between the police officers and the gangsters.
Ivan's Childhood (Criterion Collection) I have a review of this one in the works and it should be finished by this afternoon. That said, I will tell you I really liked this film and liked »
