Eva Mendez finds peace in cemeteries
10 April 2013 10:01 PM, PDT | Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news »
Eva Mendez meditates in cemeteries. The 39-year-old actress has an odd fascination with graveyards and she often goes to visit the eerie resting places of people to escape the stresses of stardom. In an interview with Italian magazine Io Donna, she revealed: 'I love graveyards and old churches, I find them peaceful and quiet. It all started 15 years ago when I first visited Père Lachaise in Paris. I don't pray though, I meditate.' When Eva is not visiting graves she keeps herself busy with her career and with her boyfriend Ryan Gosling, who she has been with since September 2011. And the 'Girl In Progress' star insists she has never been attracted to 'bad guys' and instead she prefers »
Eva Mendes: 'I don't care about looking beautiful'
5 April 2013 2:41 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
In her new film, The Place Beyond the Pines, she ditches glam, playing a hard-grafting waitress opposite real-life partner Ryan Gosling. She talks about how the role mirrors her upbringing and, er, why her dog's face should be pixellated
"If you see Mike Leigh," says Eva Mendes, "tell him Mendes really wants him. And I do a good cockney." So I did. Or, rather, I emailed his agent. Mendes had already done the heavy lifting. "I sent him a note maybe like eight years ago," she says, a little giddy, "and I'm sure he had no idea who I was. And then I ran into him and he was lovely. So I just hope these last eight years I've maybe done something that he's liked or could see potential in, so we could possibly work together." His films are magical, she says; they move her to tears. "I come from »

Cine Latino covers, well, all things relating to Latino culture and the movies, every Wednesday. Banderas Mines the Story The remarkable rescue of 33 Chilean miners that occurred three years ago captivated the world’s attention; of course, it didn’t take long before Hollywood began planning to take the heart-wrenching, death-defying story to the big screen. A few years ago Academy Award-nominated producer Mike Medavoy (Black Swan, Shutter Island) entered into an agreement with the miners and screenwriter Jose Rivera (Motorcycle Diaries), and last year hired director Patricia Riggen (Girl in Progress) to helm the project.

Antonio Banderas to Star in Los 33 Chilean Miner Rescue Film
11 March 2013 3:17 AM, PDT | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »
Back in 2010, thirty three Chilean miners ended up stuck 2,200 feet underground for sixty nine days as rescuers worked on innovative drilling techniques to get them out. But before the last man was rescued, Hollywood was already coming up with ways to bring the story to the big screen. Several productions went into development, but one is now moving forward faster than the rest, a movie called "Los 33" that has "Girl in Progress" director Patricia Riggen on board. In a new interview with the Daily Star, Riggen revealed that Antonio Banderas has joined the cast. "Antonio Banderas will be part of our team of actors. We're very happy to have him in the cast. But he's just the first one confirmed. There will be many more," she said. At one point, Javier Bardem was also in talks. No word if that's still the case. »

Ryan Gosling (Crazy, Stupid, Love; The Notebook) is the latest actor to jump on the actors-turned-director trend. He'll make his feature film directorial debut with How to Catch a Monster, a fantasy noir pic with several big stars lined up to take part. Eva Mendes (Girl in Progress, Ghost Rider), Saoirse Ronan (The Host, City of Ember), Christina Hendricks ("Mad Men"), Ben Mendelsohn (The Dark Knight Rises) and Matt Smith ("Doctor Who") will star; Mendes and Mendelsohn starred alongside Gosling in the critically acclaimed but not yet released The Place Beyond the Pines.
In How to Catch a Monster, Hendricks will play a single mom who discovers a dark underworld when her teen son finds a secret road to an underwater town. To survive, the two must dig deeper into the mystery.
Lately, several actors are lining up to direct films including Melissa McCarthy and Jason Bateman. »
