As the yacht drew into Port de Cannes and the camera shutters went into overdrive, it seemed from a distance that five disparate versions of Audrey Hepburn were making the grandest of entrances. Sporting the sunglasses and headscarves of 1950s starlets – variously paired with leopard-print chiffon, rainbow crop-tops and sports-branded underwear – this was a ragtag bunch of ingenues. There was an elegant one, a redheaded one, a childlike one, one who looked a bit angry about something, and one seemingly fresh from a set of mixed doubles.

It's 20 years since the Spice Girls headed to the big screen for their solo movie. And we've taken a look back...
I don’t think Spice World: The Movie is as good as Inception.
This winter marks the 20th birthday of a film that many had sneered at before its release, and many continue to sneer at now. Boasting a hard-won 3.4/10 score on IMDb, Spice World: The Movie pops up from time to time in lists slamming films involving pop stars, or, if it’s lucky, it appears on the ‘guilty pleasure’ carousel. For added fun, the late Roger Ebert had it as one of the films that he most hated. Yikes.
I don’t believe in guilty pleasures, personally, and have written about that before. Nor do I agree with Roger. For I do enjoy Spice World: The Movie for what it is: a daft, breezy,...

During their season of The Bachelor, Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell memorably bonded on an extravagant date: they hung out in a hot tub in the middle of nowhere. But this month, the couple got closer in a place where some people don’t even have easy access to clean drinking water: Honduras.
Higgins has worked with the Humanity & Hope United Foundation for years, even wearing a bracelet supporting the nonprofit during his time as Bachelor. The group’s aim is to help locals develop sustainable change to make their lives better: creating farms that will bring jobs, sending kids to school and more. In November, for the first time, Bushnell joined him on a trip to Honduras with the foundation.
“It’s hard to put words to,” Higgins tells Et of sharing the experience. “I watched her play with kids … invest in their lives, and honestly, it made my heart soar. It was a beautiful...

The juggernaut known as American Idol is coming to an end after nearly 14 years on the air, and the conversation around its final season has focused on its musical legacy, gifting the world a constellation of bright stars like Jennifer Hudson (she won an Oscar!) and Katherine McPhee (she starred in a 3-D movie about sharks in a supermarket!). But as the show sings its swan song, we can't forget another indelible mark the series left on pop culture: specifically, 2003's would-be summer blockbuster and the stillborn brainchild of Idol mastermind Simon Fuller,...

Amid a press tour for her highly anticipated new album Piece By Piece, Kelly Clarkson just can't stop hating on her big screen debut. Turns out, she was very opposed to filming it in the first place.
Pics: Aww! Stars Share Pics of Their Cute Kids
In a revealing 25 Things You Don't Know About Me piece with Us Weekly, Clarkson opened up about a devastating phone call with American Idol creator Simon Fuller.
"I cried for a solid hour on the phone with the creator of American Idol and pleaded to be let out of the contract that said I had to film From Justin to Kelly," she said.

Pat Clifton, the humble and dedicated postman who's been the star of his own TV series for more than 30 years, gets his moment to shine on the big screen with the release of Postman Pat: The Movie.
Forget the quaint and low-key adventures of yesteryear, though, this film translation is a multicoloured 3D animation that turns its protagonist into a Paul Potts-type singing sensation via a reality TV show. Unfortunately, much of the parochial charm is lost in a film that lacks the visual and storytelling sophistication of superior toon fare.

Slapstick Festival, Bristol
With Buster Keaton back in cinemas (The General is on reissue and there's a retrospective at London's BFI), it's a good time to brush up on silent comedy, and this festival, celebrating its 10th anniversary, has done much to spread the word, or maybe the subtitle. This year Charlie Chaplin takes his turn in the spotlight and marks the 100th anniversary of his Little Tramp incarnation, with Omid Djalili introducing an orchestra-backed screening of City Lights at Colston Hall on Friday. The seen-it-all crowd will be more intrigued by celebrations of forgotten stars such as Constance Talmadge, Raymond Griffith and Max Davidson. More up to date, Tim Vine explains why he loves Benny Hill (Watershed, 26 Jan), and Phill Jupitus asks Paul McGann and Ralph Brown about the making of Withnail & I (Bristol Old Vic, 26 Jan).

This Friday night, NBC will be airing a Halloween special called Mockingbird Lane, a TV movie based on the 1960s CBS comedy The Munsters.
Mockingbird Lane was not originally conceived as a movie. Instead, it was meant to be a series, but the Peacock network passed on ordering the drama to series.
Most unordered pilots disappear, never to be heard from again. It’s a rare move for NBC to show the completed pilot, but I’m glad it’s doing so.
The series is the brainchild of Bryan Fuller, the creator of ABC’s whimsical series Pushing Daisies, which ended in 2009 after two seasons. Since, Fuller worked on NBC’s eventually canceled drama Heroes, but this marks his full return to TV — and the trailer for Mockingbird Lane is reminiscent of Pushing Daisies in tone and style.

When we were auditioning actors for Enron, they'd talk to the director, not to me, and it occurred to me they thought I was a secretary taking notes. Then one said, "Who's the writer?" and the director said, "She is." This guy just looked at me and went, "You wrote this? Ok..." and nodded. It was beautiful because I felt like he was giving me a lot of respect.

A First-class cast has been assembled to bring the adventures of children's favourite Postman Pat to the big screen.
Stephen Mangan will voice the character in Postman Pat: The Movie - You Know You're the One, alongside contributions from Harry Potter star Rupert Grint, former Doctor Who David Tennant and Oscar-winner Jim Broadbent.
The 3D animated film will show Pat tempted away from his hometown of Greendale and his cat Jess by the bright lights of fame after he enters a television talent show.
Mangan (pictured right) said: "I'm absolutely thrilled to be playing the world's best-known postman in his big screen debut - he's an iconic British hero and it's a great script. However when I excitedly told my three-year-old son that I was going to be Postman Pat, he said, 'No you're not, dad, don't be silly'."
Rupert Grint added: "I used to watch Postman Pat when I was a small boy.

The project was eventually stalled when NBC decided to table it for the time being. However, the network has shown a renewed interest in the series as of late, and has asked Fuller to rework the script. The new version is said to be an hourlong series with an "ediger," "slightly darker" take that focuses more on the characters' origins. There's no word on whether del...

London -- Comedienne and TV star Jennifer Saunders has been hired to pen a romantic comedy musical "Viva Forever," based on the songs of the 1990s female pop sensation The Spice Girls.
Saunders has been tasked by "Mamma Mia" producer Judy Craymer to pen the stage musical story for what is billed as a "modern fable of camaraderie, love and loyalty."
Craymer said: "Jennifer [Saunders] is brilliant at writing about these themes and the Spice Girls' songs connect powerfully in a smart and moving way."
Saunders is no stranger to girl power or comedy having written and starred in eponymous TV sketch show "French and Saunders" with comedy partner Dawn French.
She also reached international audiences for writing and playing the lead role of Edina Monsoon in the BBC sitcom "Absolutely Fabulous."
And perhaps most relevant of all, Saunders had a cameo in 1998 movie "Spiceworld," alongside the girls.

Anyone a big Spice Girls fan? Their last British tour saw tickets sell like hot cakes, and now it looks like a West End show is in the works, based on the girl’s journey into super-stardom! It will include all our favourite Spice Girl songs and will likely be along the same lines as the Take That musical, “Never Forget”. But naturally this time, it will be ‘Girl Power’ running the show.
The girls have reportedly decided to name their planned West End musical ‘Viva Forever‘ after their 1998 number one single…..one of their best in my opinion too! The show is allegedly being written by Kim Fuller, who also penned the script to the movie Spiceworld and is the half-sister of the band’s former manager Simon Fuller.

The girl group have chosen to name the proposed musical after their 1998 number one hit and the script for the show is presently being written.
The musical – which will tell the rags-to-riches rise to fame of the five members, Geri Halliwell, Mel B, Victoria Beckham, Mel C and Emma Bunton – is being written by Kim Fuller, who also penned the script for the group’s 1997 film ‘Spiceworld’. Kim is the sister of former Spice Girls manager Simon Fuller. The production will feature 14 of the band’s biggest songs, and is set to begin on November 5 next year.

It’s here! It only took us 38 episodes, 17 weeks and one Tatiana del Toro, but the “American Idol” finale is just moments away!
Tonight I’m live-blogging from the actual honest-to-Gokey “American Idol” finale - but don’t get too excited. I’m not in the auditorium with the judges and the random celebrity guests and the Seacrest. I’m in a “press viewing party” in the basement of the Nokia Theatre, squeezed in between other (sweaty) media outlets and watching the show on a monitor. This is the glamorous underbelly of showbiz, folks, and taking a look around the room, I’d say put the emphasis on belly.
For those of you who need to get caught up to speed on tonight’s proceedings, it’s Battle Royale between Adam Lambert, a theatrical screaming banshee who revitalized the aging competition with a unique style and a coy/savvy depiction of his sexuality,...

LONDON -- "Seeing Double" forms part of that bizarre grouping of movies that feature pop bands running around glamorous locations looking for an excuse to sing and dance. The film, which marks the big-screen debut of Britpop sextet S Club, could prove to be a minor U.K. success, but it's hard to see it as more than a video/DVD release in most territories.
The script is by Kim Fuller, who also wrote "Spice World". The story is typical small-screen tosh: A mad inventor clones the six members of S Club while they are off at a gig in Spain and has the well-behaved new S Club clones play a series of concerts in Los Angeles. It is left for the plucky popsters -- Bradley, Rachel, Hannah, Jo, Tina and Jon -- to make their way to the United States and get to the bottom of this nefarious plot.
The real S Club break into a fortresslike L.A. mansion and discover that the fake S Club are actually bellybuttonless "popbots," and the clonemaster (David Gant) has evil plans to control the minds of the world's youth by controlling their pop icons.
On a certain level, "Seeing Double" is simply an extended television program, replete with awful jokes, nice locations, standard pop-video direction and a smattering of song-and-dance routines. The six members of S Club work hard at being attractive, endearing and mildly wacky, but only Hannah Spearritt (as Hannah) shows a natural spark. The scene where she tries to distract a pair of nasty-looking guard dogs with her glove puppet is genuinely quite amusing.
The Spanish and L.A. locations are extremely nice, and director Nigel Dick goes about his work with tongue-in-cheek enthusiasm. He is an experienced pop video director and, unsurprisingly, the performance sections are handled very well. In many ways, "Seeing Double" is an old-fashioned and endearingly innocent teen movie aimed fair and square at the Easter holiday marketplace.

There is a lot of subversive fun to be had in the comedy-thriller "High Heels and Lowlifes", a refreshingly engaging British movie that isn't afraid to go all out for laughs and thrills, leaving its social conscience behind. Kim Fuller's fast-moving script also offers up two great roles for stars Minnie Driver and Mary McCormack. Driver again displays her skill at comedy line-delivery and, as her partner-in-crime, McCormack makes the most of her role.
"High Heels and Lowlifes", which should click well with U.K. audiences, could equally make the transition to the international marketplace, where Driver has a profile and a sexy comedy is ripe for promotion. Buena Vista is scheduled to release the film in the United States next year.
Director Mel Smith knows his comedy ("Bean" was a massive success, and as an actor-performer, he is well-known on film and television) and works well to bring out the best from the script and performers.
Driver plays Shannon, a London nurse who lives with a boyfriend who spends most of his time recording from his radio scanner. McCormack is her best friend Frances, an American actress struggling to break into the big time. One evening, Shannon and Frances overhear a mobile-phone conversation between gang members involved in a bank robbery in their neighborhood. When the police pay no attention to their story, the duo decide, as a dare, to call the gang and demand money in return for not revealing their identities.
Their plan is to extort a little money for new clothes and perhaps some equipment for Shannon's hospital. But the hardened criminals are prepared to kill rather than give away any money. As the stakes rise, the women get further drawn into their scheme and finally are faced with the decision whether to run for their lives or take on the gangsters on their home turf.
The mobsters, led by Mason (Kevin McNally), make an attempt to kill the duo, so Shannon and Frances take the fight to Mason's boss Kerrigan (Michael Gambon, clearly having fun as a sleazy gangster) and break into his house.
Fuller's heroines are sassy and determined, but certainly no superheroes. (McCormack snaps all of her plastic credit cards trying to break into an apartment, while Driver is knocked flat on her back trying to shoot a machine gun.) McNally plays the villain as ruthless and evil. Mark Williams and Kevin Eldon make a strong impact as inept cops.
Smith -- who allows himself an Alfred Hitchcock-like cameo -- makes fine use of London locations, shooting in trendy areas of Hoxton and Hackney, which are rarely seen on the big screen, as well as using nice aerial photography.

Having already conquered the pop world, Mel B, Emma, Mel C, Geri and Victoria, aka The Spice Girls, have taken their act to the big screen and the results are decidedly mixed.
The good news is the spunky quintet, neatly defined characters all, have a winning rapport with a nice blend of team effort and good-natured ribbing.
Unfortunately, rather than trust them to carry a movie bearing their name, this "A Hard Day's Night" wannabe -- it actually shares more with the old "Monkees" TV series -- has been padded with tired subplots and a gaggle of over-the-top supporting characters.
As a result, while the picture may nevertheless give preteen female fans what they want (what they really, really want), the previously unconverted will unlikely be swayed. Don't expect Girl Power to fuel ticket sales much beyond the opening weekend.
Based on an idea by The Spice Girls and screenwriter Kim Fuller (brother of their recently ousted manager Simon Fuller), "Spice World" concerns itself with a summer in the life of a wildly successful British band called The Spice Girls and how they deal with fame and fortune, not to mention a raving manager (Richard E. Grant), an arrogant documentarian (Alan Cumming) and diabolical paparazzi (as embodied by the omnipresent Richard O'Brien).
One hopes they didn't overly tax themselves coming up with that idea. To be fair there are additional elements, including a slobbering media giant (Barry Humphries) who's obsessed with crushing Girl Power; the mysterious Chief (Roger Moore), who dispenses wisdom in the form of Zen-like non-sequiturs; and a Hollywood producer (George Wendt) and a hyper screenwriter (Mark McKinney) determined to make the girls movie stars. But none of the peripheral stuff works particularly well.
Worse, under the direction of Bob Spiers ("Absolutely Fabulous", Disney's "That Darned Cat" remake), "Spice World" makes the fatal mistake of dragging its platform heels. This type of vehicle begs for an MTV pace, but even their musical performances have been blandly and quite statically shot.
There are still moments of satisfaction to be had here, mainly from the group's own partially improvised interactions and during the picture's satirical fantasy interludes, which feature amusing cameos from the likes of Elton John, Elvis Costello, Bob Hoskins and Meat Loaf as the girls' loyal tour bus driver.
Not surprisingly, production and costume design steal focus on the technical front, with Grenville Horner's bold primary color schematics providing the perfect backdrop for Kate Carin's shiny, bright anything-goes threads.
The soundtrack, essentially, is composed of The Spice Girls' two albums worth of inconsequential but admittedly infectious bubble gum which, like the picture itself, begins to lose its flavor after a few satisfying snaps.
