Selena Gomez Is A Spring Breaker

Disney star teams with Harmony KorineYou're the star of a Disney Channel series, with a bit of a pop career on the side, and a boyfriend called Justin Bieber. So what's your next project? Why, a film by the director of Gummo, Julien Donkey-Boy and Trash Humpers, of course. Selena Gomez has just joined Harmony Korine's Spring Breakers. That sound you can hear is Uncle Walt spinning in his cryo-chamber.Spring Breakers does actually sound unusually mainstream for Korine, although given that his last film involved masked octogenarian tramps having sex with dustbins, it's all relative. This one's about four college girls cutting loose and funding their spring break by robbing a restaurant. When they're arrested and jailed, they then find themselves entangled with the drug-runner who bailed them out, and who wants them to whack his main competitor.James Franco is already attached to play the dope dealer, and Vanessa Hudgens and Emma Roberts are aboard as two of the four girlie reprobates. So by our elaborate calculations, that means there's one more gang-member to be cast, now that Gomez is Girl Three."I'm really excited," Gomez told MTV. "It's a different character than I've ever played before, and a different kind of vibe, I think, than people are used to seeing me in. What you're going to see is more raw, I think. It's going to be raw and more about acting."Shooting starts - when else? - in the spring. And remember, Johnny Depp was just a teen TV posterboy until he met John Waters and Tim Burton. At the very least, this should be a step up from Monte Carlo for the starlet.

Riddick 3 Back On Track

Production problems smoothed overIt was always intended to be filmed on a lean and mean low budget, but that apparently hasn't precluded cashflow problems for the third Riddick movie. Some scaremongering reports a month or so ago suggested that production on Riddick 3 had shut down, but thankfully it seems just to have been a temporary technical itch, and the Furyan's night-vision is now operational again.The reports came from Montreal studio owner Michel Trudel, who locked the production out of his facility due, he said, to some rather large unpaid bills. There was also said to be some griping from similarly afflicted crew members.Thankfully though, the line of credit has been restored. The various reports this morning are not naming the production's mysterious benefactor, although Vin Diesel made sure to give some props to Universal when he posted some artwork on his Facepage a couple of months ago.The still-not-officially-titled Riddick 3 sees the hard-assed Richard B. Riddick left for dead on a desolate planet, and is directed, as were the others, by David Twohy. Karl Urban is back from previous instalment The Chronicles of Riddick as Necromonger henchman Vaako, and there are rumours that Katee Sackhoff (BSG's Starbuck), Bokeem Woodbine and Dave Bautista are also along for the ride.Shooting halted in October, but is scheduled to start again on December 28.

Louis's Thanksgiving: 5 Movie-Related Things I'm Thankful For in 2011

Happy Thanksgiving, my naughty little puritans. Before I jump headfirst into the HoKa turkey that Gloria Virtel is graciously preparing, I thought I’d share the five filmic things I’m most thankful for in 2011. Join me as I thank national treasures like Jon Hamm, Penn Badgley, and Twitter’s new empress. 5. “Fake ID” from the Footloose soundtrack Unfortunately, Footloose is a boring morality tale whether it stars Kevin Bacon or Kenny Wormald, but Big and Rich spiced up the 2011 remake with this electrified hoedown anthem. Deniece Williams, kindly step out of the way. Let’s hear it for the buoyancy of this country-pop majesty. 4. The Bridesmaids blooper reel Although I appreciated Bridesmaids, it’s also a very imperfect and somewhat disappointing movie. Just so base. Why? Luckily, the film’s blooper reel was much funnier than the actual feature, and in it we get to see Melissa McCarthy freestyle, Wendi McLendon-Covey kill it with improv stylings, and Jon Hamm raise the bar on sexual humor. Bridesmaids Outtakes - watch more funny videos 3. Penn Badgley’s crying in Margin Call Did you see Margin Call? Please do it. Richly dramatic, well-acted, and Jeremy Irons goes all Scar in the last half, and it makes you gyrate. Even better, Penn Badgley — who plays a money-obsessed douchebag on Wall Street — comes undone before one key meeting and weeps in a bathroom stall. It is awesome to watch him weep. You will find yourself yelling, “WEEP” at the screen. For me, the experience was a purgation of the times I’ve wanted to watch douchebags suffer — exactly what the Pilgrims had in mind when they invented Thanksgiving. 2. The hilarious way Vanessa Redgrave says, “None of your poems or plays will ever carry your name” in the Anonymous trailer. Pretty self-explanatory. Go to 1:20 to hear of her quavery, imperious delivery — that is, if you can survive the trailer’s ridiculous use of Radiohead. 1. Ellen Barkin’s Twitter account As her reported beau Sam Levinson said, Ellen Barkin’s Twitter account is an endless scroll of honesty and vulgarity — and it’s also perfect. The Sea of Love sorceress treats Twitter like recess in a Bronx schoolyard. She fires off profanities like bottle rockets, and for some of us, profanities mean everything. Amen. #embedly_twitter_13366399{background:url(http://a1.twimg.com/images/themes/theme14/bg.gif) #131516;padding:20px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 p{background:#fff;padding:10px 12px 0px 12px;margin:0;min-height:48px;color:#000;font-size:18px;line-height:22px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .embedly_tweet_content{background:#fff;padding:10px 12px 10px 12px;margin:0;min-height:48px;color:#000;font-size:18px !important;line-height:22px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 p span.metadata{display:block;width:100%;clear:both;margin-top:0px;height:40px;padding-bottom:12px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 p span.metadata span.author{line-height:15px;color:#999;font-size:14px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 p span.metadata span.author a{line-height:15px;font-size:20px;vertical-align:middle;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 p span.metadata span.author img{float:left;margin:0 10px 0 0px;width:48px;height:48px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 p a {color:#009999;text-decoration:none;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 p a:hover{text-decoration:underline;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .embedly_timestamp{font-size:13px;display:inline-block;margin-top:5px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .components-above span.embedly_timestamp{font-size:10px;margin-top:1px;line-height:12px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 a {color:#009999;text-decoration:none;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 a:hover{text-decoration:underline;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-screen-name {font-size:14px;font-weight:bold;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-full-name {padding-left:4px;color:#999;font-size:12px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-actions{margin-left:10px;font-size:13px;display:inline-block;width:250px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .components-above span.tweet-actions{font-size:10px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .controls{line-height:12px!important;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-actions a {margin-left:5px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-actions a b{font-weight:normal;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .components-above span.tweet-actions a b{vertical-align:baseline;line-height:12px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .components-above .tweet-text{font-size:13px;vertical-align:baseline;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-image {float:left;width:40px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-user-block-image {float:left;width:48px;height:48px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-row {margin-left:40px;margin-top:3px;line-height:17px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-user-block {}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .stream-item {padding-bottom:0px;margin-left:12px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .simple-tweet-image img {margin-top:4px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .simple-tweet-content {margin:0 0 13px 0px;font-size:14px;min-height:48px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .in-reply-to-border {border-color:#EBEBEB;border-style:solid;border-width:1px 0 0;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .in-reply-to-text {margin-left:4px;padding-left:8px;padding-right:10px;color:#999;font-size:12px;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-actions i {background:transparent url(http://a2.twimg.com/a/1306889658/phoenix/img/sprite-icons.png) no-repeat;width:15px;height:15px;margin:0 4px 3px;outline:none;vertical-align:baseline;display:inline-block;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-actions a.retweet-action i {background-position:-192px 0;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-actions a.reply-action i {background-position:0 0;}#embedly_twitter_13366399 .tweet-actions a.favorite-action i {background-position:-32px 0;}@EllenBarkinEllen Barkin Took 1 fuckin hr just to activate this fuckin inflight WiFi bullshit…I’m almost fuckin home.Nov 17 via Twitter for iPadFavoriteRetweetReply Follow Louis Virtel on Twitter.

Michael Fassbender's Naked 'Shame' Is For 'Members Only'

Any time an actor on the verge of A-list status appears fully naked in a movie, some weirdness is bound to follow. Such is the case for Michael Fassbender, the fast-rising star of such films as "X-Men: First Class" and "Prometheus." Beyond those big-budget spectacles, he's lately been appearing in quieter indie fare, including "Shame," an NC-17 drama where Fassbender stars as a sex addict and spends a healthy amount of screen time bearing much more than just his soul. Following his nude appearance in "Shame," Fassbender has apparently become quite the expert on on-screen nudity. That's what we discovered in the latest edition of After Hours -- appropriately titled "Members Only" -- where Fassbender was tasked with identifying several of his actor contemporaries based on their... well, you know. See how Fassbender performed under pressure in our newest After Hours!

Castle's Stana Katic: Sniper Case Brings Castle and Beckett a Step Closer to a Relationship

Stana Katic For the first time on Castle, Beckett will lose control. As a sniper rampages through NY, Beckett (Stana Katic) will be faced with memories of being in the cross hairs of a sniper and taking a bullet to the chest in the Season 3 finale. "It's the first time that she is not on top of her game," Katic tells TVGuide.com of Beckett's reaction to the new case. "It's the first time she's in a space of pure fear, and it's unusual for her and she doesn't know how to handle it." Castle First Look: Beckett faces PTSD as a sniper rampages through NYC Not used to weakness, Beckett will attempt to push her PTSD aside in hopes of willing herself back to normal. "For a character who's so used to being in control of a situation, it's like, 'OK, I don't have time for this. What do I need to do to get past this and get back on the case?' She is so used to being at the forefront of any investigation and is NY's superhero, basically. There's no time for weakness, especially now. She has to work through this and it's a tough one." Castle (Nathan Fillion), who's usually quick with a joke to provide comfort, will be at a loss at how to help Beckett get through her fear that she could end up getting shot again. "This is the first time that Castle is completely immobilized and he cannot help her," she says. "The whole group sees that something is crazy-wrong with her, and they don't have the tools to help her through it. It's totally uncharted territory for her. The only person who does know how to help is Esposito [Jon Huertas]." Castle Boss: Castle and Beckett's new secrets are a "ticking bomb" To come out of this case physically and emotionally intact, Beckett will be forced to confront one of the basic notions that always has driven her. "She has been defining herself by her mom's murder, and she realizes that she doesn't want to define herself by that, anymore," Katic says. "It's caused her to make certain decisions. She became a cop because of it, and she's unable to invest in a real relationship because of it. "She's not willing to compromise living life anymore," she continues. "This case brings that fear of losing life to the forefront, something she's been able to tuck away since the shooting, and now she can't anymore because it's so close to home and so close to her own experience. She looks at a dead body at one point, and that dead body is basically almost a mirror image of who she is and who she could've been if she didn't survive the sniper shooting." Castle Season 4: What happens after "I love you"? Coming to terms with her own experience is the first step in what could be a relationship between Castle and Beckett. "Beckett decides to choose that she doesn't want to be defined the unresolved murder case anymore. She wants to engage in the gift that is her life and engage in a gift like a relationship with Castle. That's not going to happen overnight, but that's a new direction for her now. It's a really sweet evolution to the character, to the story and to the love story. She comes one huge step closer to getting into that relationship with Castle." Check out a sneak peek of Monday's Castle, airing 10/9c on ABC.

He formed the Universal Film Manufacturing Co. in 1912 through the rollup of several smaller film shingles.Laemmle became known in the biz for hiring many members of his extended family to run the studio; hence the nickname "Uncle Carl."Universal's pics were lensed at various locations around Hollywood and the San Fernando Valley until Laemmle opened the doors to the studio's current Universal City site in 1915.

Vital The 25th annual AFI Fest found a detailed Thursday evening using the United States premiere from the Adventures of Tintin, director Steven Spielberg and producer Jackson's adaptation of Herge's 1929-1938 comic series. The Three-D film, which blends motion-capture technology and animation in unparalleled ways, appeared to talk about perfectly using the crowd at Grauman's Chinese Theatre, which incorporated many of the world's most celebrated animation and visual effects artists. The film opens countrywide on 12 ,. 21, and it is distributor, Vital Pictures, hopes the Academy's animation branch will embrace its new method of animation and nominate it within the best animated feature Oscar category.our editor recommends'The Adventures of Tintin': Never-Before-Seen Footage Promises Lots of Action (Video)Steven Spielberg, Peter Jackson's 'Adventures of Tintin' to shut Out AFI Fest (Exclusive) Tintin is nice, innocent, escapist entertainment -- kind of the motion picture same as The Sturdy Boys, having a healthy dose of comedy tossed in permanently measure -- and really should do large business throughout the holidays. It appears in my experience that children as well as their associated parents will take into account the huge most of ticket sales, out of the box always the situation with animated films, but Vital demands that it'll have crossover appeal and draw a considerable quantity of grown ups by themselves, specifically in light to the fact that the origin material ought to be familiar to individuals of the certain age. I'll need to view it to completely accept is as true, however they might be right. VIDEO: The Adventures of Tintin: Trailer 2 What's beyond any shadow of the doubt, though, is the fact that Spielberg isn't just one of the most revered filmmakers of his era, but additionally one of the most artistically curious and ambitious. Why else would he undertake the immense challenge of creating a movie of the sort he had nothing you've seen prior attempted (animated) using technology that he'd nothing you've seen prior played around with (motion-capture) and delivering it inside a format he'd nothing you've seen prior employed (3-D) except from a real love for researching and practicing the craft of filmmaking? No matter the extent that one likes Spielberg's Tintin, or Martin Scorsese's animated 3-D pic Hugo (another forthcoming Vital release), or Francis Ford Coppola's live-action 3-D outing Twixt (that is apparently delivering in 12 ,.), one needs to acknowledge that it's pretty awesome to determine these old masters trying new methods instead of just diminishing away.

Wall Street Analysts' Outlook for UltraViolet Is Mixed

NY - With Warner Bros.' home entertainment release of Horrible Bosses Tuesday, Hollywood studios and tech firms kicked off their long-discussed UltraViolet platform, which allows consumers access to movies they own across a slew of devices via a digital locker.our editor recommendsConsortium of Studios, Manufacturers Throws Weight Behind UltraViolet Management SystemUltraviolet Launches Licensing Program Leading to Digital Locker in the Cloud Wall Street analysts on Tuesday mentioned opportunities of the cloud storage system, particularly for revitalizing the Hollywood studios' home entertainment business, but also highlighted its current shortfalls, particularly a lack of participation from Walt Disney and Apple. "Can UltraViolet Shine A Light on Owning Movies Again?" Morgan Stanley analyst Benjamin Swinburne asked in a report. "We view the industry's UltraViolet initiative as a critical, although certainly challenging, step forward given the potential for greater adoption of high-margin electronic sell-through and slowing the consumer migration away from purchase transactions toward lower-margin rental outlets," he said. "If UltraViolet can drive consumers to adopt a cloud-based film ownership model in any material way, stocks that have material studio assets would likely see higher earnings and multiple expansion." In a bull case scenario that he outlined, UltraViolet could drive about 10 percent upside to film studios' earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. In that scenario, films bought rather than rented per household could rise to more than seven per year by 2015 from an estimated 6.8 this year. "If UltraViolet is able to drive film buying habits back to 2004 levels - at over 12 films purchased per household annually - the upside would be even greater," Swinburne said. But the analyst also highlighted key challenges. "Disney and Apple remain on the sidelines, inhibiting universal adoption," Swinburne said. "Disney currently plans to launch its own version of a "digital locker" called Disney Studio All Access that uses a different file format than UltraViolet's Common File Format, making it difficult for users to keep their UltraViolet films and Disney films in the same place." For now, it is early days, with the start of 2012 potentially bringing another incentive for consumers. "We expect legal-copy upload capability (allowing consumers to upload current DVD inventory into the cloud) to begin rolling out by the first quarter 2012, potentially spurring new purchase activity," Swinburne said. Miller Tabak analyst David Joyce also said it was too early to predict the impact of UltraViolet. "The big question is how does the consumer like whatever price points emerge and how cannibalistic might it become for future platform releases and growth," he told The Hollywood Reporter. "I am hopeful that the risk and opportunity will be balanced" though, he added. The key question will be whether a studio will be able to charge a higher price of, say, $30 now for a consumer to have access to a piece of content in perpetuity instead of getting less money plus another $20 five years from now for a new device. While lauding studios for looking at digital options, BTIG analyst Richard Greenfield was particularly bearish about UltraViolet, highlighting that it doesn't work with iTunes and doesn't easily work with Apple devices. "While we are skeptical that anything can reinvigorate the purchase of home entertainment beyond drastically reducing prices points (relative to rental), forcing consumers to use your infrastructure versus theinfrastructurethey are comfortable with requires a "complete" solution, which the UltraViolet-ecosystem simply is not today," he said in a blog post. "Moving forward with UltraViolet before it is ready for prime-time risks pushing consumers increasingly toward rental priced options where they do not need to deal with the hassles of ownership and, even worse, piracy."

Golden Globes Trial Won't Begin Before March 2012

Hollywood Foreign Press Association via Getty Images The trial between the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and Dick Clark Productions to decide who controls broadcast rights to the highly rated Golden Globe Awards -- after being postponed at the last minute in September -- will now probably not happen before March 2012 and could be put off until sometime late next summer or beyond. That's the timing being considered by Howard A. Matz, the new federal judge in Los Angeles, who will oversee the case, and ultimately decide which side prevails (since both sides have agreed there will be no jury). However, the HFPA filed a motion Thursday asking that the court date be set sooner than that because "postponing trial until next summer will prolong the present uncertainty regarding the broadcast right," explains the filing, "and undermine substantial efforts... to streamline the issues in this case to secure a prompt adjudication of the parties' rights." STORY: Golden Globes Trial: Inside One of TV's Messiest, Nastiest Battles The new judge in the case has scheduled a pre-trial status conference for the end of November. However, the HFPA in their filing asked for a telephone conference call before that -- as soon as next week -- to speed up the process, and hopefully arrange for a trial to commence sooner than what is being discussed. The HFPA filing notes that all of the pre-trial work in the case was completed, including various motions and witness lists, before the last minute cancellation; so both sides are essentially ready to go. According to the filing there is another issue. Attorney Daniel Petrocelli, who is co-counsel for the HFPA with Linda J. Smith, will not be available for trial between February and July 2012, due to other obligations. After the trial was postponed in September because the judge then expected to try the case became ill, both sides agreed to a deal with NBC to carry the Globes telecast January 15, 2012, so as not to disrupt the show. However, the HFPA filing says despite this "one-time, non-precedential agreement... an expeditious resolution...remains of paramount importance." STORY: Golden Globes Trial Witness List Includes Les Moonves, Marc Graboff and Dick Clark Another source said that the pressure to have a trial as soon as January is largely driven by Petrocelli's not being available for such a long period next spring and summer. Based on his unavailability, the judge could not schedule the trial before next August or some time after that. Such a postponement could mean the rights for the 2013 Globes telecast could again become an issue, which might lead to another one-year contract extension with NBC. That would be fine with Dick Clark, said the source, but would not be what the HFPA wants to happen. There have been unconfirmed reports that there were mediation attempts in the past few months to try and reach an out of court settlement, but they were not successful. STORY: Golden Globe Awards Trial Pushed Back By 30 Days The trial, which is expected to last about 8 business days, is anticipated to be the first of two phases in the litigation. In this first phase they will decide whether a clause in a previous contract in fact gives Dick Clark the right to continue as producer of the Globes as long as it airs on NBC. Dick Clark Productions had negotiated a new pact with NBC to carry the show without the approval of the HFPA, which was a key issue that led to litigation between the two longtime business partners. The HFPA has said it wants a new producer and to put the Globe rights up for auction to the highest bidder. Golden Globes

NY - Following a long term-up, Facebook's private market cost has declined recently among economic concerns that have drawn lower stock areas, the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.

Media Stocks Suffer As Investors Fear Ad Sales Will Weaken

The Dow Jones U.S. Media Index was down 3.5% today while the DJ Industrial Average was off 2.4% — and Goldman Sachs may have contributed to the imbalance: It downgraded the entertainment sector today to “neutral” from “attractive” saying that ad sales will be weaker than expected as the overall economy softens. That came as the market also reacted to Greece’s report over the weekend that it will fail to hit its deficit-reduction targets for the year — increasing the possibility of a default. CBS, -7%, was the biggest loser among the major media companies. It was followed by Viacom (-5.1%), Sony (-4.7%), Disney (-3.9%), Time Warner (-3.4%), and Comcast (-2.2%). In the broader media market, broadcasters Westwood One, LIN TV, Rado One, and Entercom were down by more than 10%. Pandora, Live Nation, Crown Media and Cumulus Media lost more than 8% of their market value. A few companies were up for the day including Yahoo (+2.7%), Regal Entertainment (+2.0%), Coinstar (+1.6%) and Time Warner Cable (+0.2%).

Silvio Horta To Develop Comedy Series For Fox Based on Texts From Last Night Blog

EXCLUSIVE: Just when we thought the trend of comedies based on blogs and Twitter feeds was cooling off, it’s back! Fox has tapped Ugly Betty creator Silvio Horta to develop a half-hour comedy based on the infamous blog Texts From Last Night. Happy Madison and Sony Pictures TV are producing. Fox has been high on the Web property. The network, Happy Madison and Sony TV first took a stab at developing a comedy based on the Web site two seasons ago with Steve Holland as the writer. Last season, it was redeveloped with different writers, Marc Abrams and Michael Benson. Now a new take will be written by Horta, who had been looking to branch out into half-hour comedies after creating 2 sci-fi dramas, The Chronicle and Jake 2.0 and a dramedy, ABC’s Ugly Betty. The user-generated TFNL blog posts “regrettable,” often embarrassing text messages usually sent late at night by people who are drunk or high. The Web site became an instant hit when it launched in February 2009, and landed a book and TV deal. This marks WME-repped Horta’s second sale under the overall deal with Sony TV he signed in June. The other one, also at Fox, is a Latino family dramedy, which he is writing and executive executive producing with Jennifer Lopez.

'Real Housewives of New Jersey's' Jacqueline Laurita Is in Hot Water With Bravo

Bravo The Real Housewives of New Jersey's Jacqueline Laurita is in the middle of a hurricane of controversy right now with her cast mates and Bravo. AUDIO: 'Real Housewives of New Jersey's' Melissa Gorga Drops First Single "It's true. Jacqueline didn't attend the reunion and doesn't wish to return to the show," a source close to the production tells The Hollywood Reporter about recent reports. The source tells THR that the housewife is currently waiting to see how Bravo will penalize her for skipping the Season 3 reunion and not fulfilling her contract. It all started on Twitter earlier this week when she voiced her frustrations with the show's drama stating, "Someone (not me) got set up tonight. There are some sneaky people trying to make someone look bad & then play innocent on camera. Sad." STORY: 'Real Housewives' Song Sales: How They Stack Up Laurita also tweeted, "No reunion for me," which she later followed up with what looked like her resignation from the show. "I can't be part of the Charade any more," she writes. "It's unsettling. It's disturbing & against what I stand for. I'm a REAL housewife." Laurita's biggest beef is with cast mate Teresa Giudice. "Teresa has tried to sabotage every member of the cast in many different ways," the source says. "She's fooling the public in many ways." The housewife also feels that the show's producers have "created unnecessary and forced drama" according to the source. And with just a month left of shooting on Season 4, she's "rebelling." STORY: 'Real Housewives of Atlanta's' Kandi Burruss Gets Own Bravo Special "She wants to protect her family and her sanity," the source says. "She feels the environment isn't healthy and she can't trust anyone. It's become stressful for her and it's just not fun for her anymore." Bravo did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The Kitty Vanishes (El gato desaparece)

A Bavaria Film Intl. presentation of the Guacamole Films, Patagonik production, with support of Incaa. (Worldwide sales: Bavaria Film Intl., Geiselgasteig, Germany.) Created by Patricia Bustamante, Juan Pablo Galli, Juan Vera, Alejandro Cacetta. Directed, compiled by Carlos Sorin.With: Luis Luque, Beatriz Spelzini, Maria Abadi, Norma Argentina, Damian Guitan, Javier Niklison, Hugo Sigman.Having fun with '40s-era Hitchcock like a cat would toy having a mouse, Argentine author-director Carlos Sorin's "The Kitty Vanishes" cleverly updates the kind of "Spellbound" and "Suspicion" using its slow-burning tale of the Buenos Aires lady (Beatriz Spelzini) whose anxiety about her psychologically recuperating husband (Luis Luque) progressively drives her as crazy because he was -- and perhaps is still. Subtly and acerbically funny, Sorin's pic also works like a dead-serious study of marital mistrust and potentially murderous impulses. This "Cat" might possibly not have nine lives in the worldwide B.O., but fests everywhere will unquestionably wish to pounce. Stylishly shot in widescreen, the film is known as for that sudden disappearance of Donatello, the married couple's pitch-black feline, who hisses in the husband and scratches his face before departing for places unknown. Appears Donatello might be the kitty who understood an excessive amount of, a minimum of about Luis (Luque), a middle-aged college prof recently sprung from psychological lockup after getting extremely attacked a friend whom he'd thought to possess stolen his research. Suspicion obviously runs in the household. Initially thrilled about Luis' go back home, his wife, Beatriz (Spelzini), evolves a coming sense that Luis' formerly identified "psychomotor agitation with behavior disorder" might not have been healed. More or less the disappearing cat, Sorin ("Your WindowInch) rather superbly renders the causes of Beatriz's mounting anxiety as falling approximately legitimately frightening and absurdly misinterpreted. The pic twists its familiar setup by calling the wife's sanity into question around the husband's, even while it characterizes the threat of male violence like a pervasive fact of existence for any lady. Will Beatriz ever have the ability to trust or forgive her husband again? And when she can't, will Luis explode? On the way to a satisfying climax, Sorin has infectious fun tease the viewer with the potential of Luis' malevolence, starting with the initial shot of him as he's launched in the psycho ward searching roughed-up and surly. If curiosity did not get rid of the cat, Luis -- a novice chef who appears to have the action of cutting seafood heads with extra-large knives -- could did the deed themself. Tech credits are topnotch, with Julian Apezteguia's progressively shadowy widescreen cinematography a specific standout. Nicolas Sorin's old-fashioned, string-based score plays in the pic's enjoyably melodramatic elements, including the director's pre-film warning not to give up the ending.Camera (color, widescreen), Julian Apezteguia editor, Mohamed Rajid music, Nicolas Sorin art director, Margarita Jusid costume designer, Ruth Fischerman seem (Dolby Digital), Jose Luis Diaz assistant director, Fabiana Tiscornia.

The Sleeping Voice: Film Review

If the purpose of The Sleeping Voiceis to help keep alive the terrible reminiscences from the Franco dictatorship in The country in most its cruelty, it fully works like a timely indication of the period that's fast sinking in to the past. The pity would be that the film's clichéd-ridden story and outdated look will leave many audiences cold, seriously restricting its range beyond The spanish language edges, where it will click mainly with local audiences weaned on straight-arrow TV drama. Vivid performances by attractive leads Maria Leon, who won Best Actress kudos in the San Sebastian festival, and also the fiery Inma Cuestado add interest that may repay for that Warner Bros. release in The country. Two siblings, one politically active and also the other not, end up swept up in politics at nighttime days following a The spanish language Civil War. In director Benito Zambrano's passionate adaptation of Dulce Chacon's novel, Madrid is really a dark and frightening devote the nineteen forties, where civil protections happen to be eliminated the ones are tossed into prison, as well as performed, only for being associated with a Communist or opponent of Franco's regime. Although the Republicans have forfeit the Civil War, freedom martial artists continue to be hiding within the mountain tops, as the government bodies search them lower and kill them mercilessly. The pregnant, spirited Hortensia (Cuesta) languishes inside a crowded women's prison run by massive female pads and inhuman nuns her husband is within hiding and she or he is guilty by association. Much more damning within the eyes from the Chapel (here indistinguishable in the condition), she's a militant atheist without any aim of getting her child baptized. Naturally, the youthful woman's courage is definitely an inspiration towards the other captive women waiting for their fate. Hortensia's naive more youthful sister Pepita (Leon), a rustic mouse with character, comes to Madrid from Cordova to become near her rather remarkably, she immediately finds employment inside a wealthy home with partners to Franco. Just in case someone misses the purpose, the haughty lady of the home is introduced painting uniformed boys giving the fascist salute (most probably her dead sons.) Inside a whisk the religious, apolitical and barely literate Pepita finds herself serving table to ferocious generals and running messages to her brother-in-law within the mountain tops. There she meets the handsome youthful fighter "Black Jacket" (Marc Clotet), who first teases after which falls on her. The moments are exasperatingly apparent, but Leon inserts the perfect quantity of shaking bravado to ensure they are fresh and watchable. In prison, Hortensia witnesses every kind of violence and abuse. During the night, women are pulled from their cells and performed by firing squads. Her very own situation continues to be pending and when she's finally taken before a military court inside a farcical group trial, her baby arrives. The dark-haired, fiery-eyed Cuesta inhales existence into this Republican passionaria, a personality who flashes to Anna Magnani in Rome Open Cityand numerous Mother Courages next. But it's Leon whose funny country method of speaking, walking and thinking offers new things on the watch's screen. Regardless, both stars are extremely appealing and stick out in the stick figures around them. Zambrano is definitely an experienced helmer (Solas, Havana Blues) you never know the ropes and the direction bursts with conviction. However the material here can't help tasting reheated, like many of the tech work: textbook staging, one-source lighting, desaturated colors, etc., which undercut the emotional pressure from the story.

CSI: Miami Season 10: Will Marisol's Return Help Horatio Finally Move On?

David Caruso, CSI: Miami CSI: Miami's 10th season premiere will find Horatio seeing ghosts.Fall Preview: Get scoop on your favorite returning showsPicking up from last season's cliff-hanger, Sunday's episode (10/9c, CBS) begins with Horatio (David Caruso) badly injured from a gunshot wound but still desperate to rescue Natalia (Eva La Rue), who's trapped inside the trunk of a car that's been pushed off the pier. But never fear: Horatio's deceased wife Marisol (Alana De La Garza) is on the job."We're really telling a story about how these predicaments affect these characters on a deep, personal level," co-executive producer Barry O'Brien tells TVGuide.com. "Our premiere has Horatio Caine in a very surprising, but very revelatory, encounter with Marisol. It is a very personal encounter that gives him inspiration and insight into his predicament and ultimately how that predicament resolves."More importantly, Horatio's vision may finally help him say goodbye to Marisol. "He is able for the first time to deal with and perhaps process that intimate and devastating loss in his life," O'Brien says. "Horatio is in that phase where, as closure is happening, all sorts of powerful emotions rise to the surface, and there's also ... an opportunity for transition, for moving on."CSI: Miami scoop: Alana De La Garza returns for the season premiereMoving forward in life may be a theme for multiple CSIs, this season. Calleigh, whose portrayer Emily Procter was sidelined for a part of Season 9 because of pregnancy, will begin searching for fulfillment outside of the crime lab byconsidering starting her own family."We're sort of playing with the maternal instincts and a sense of journey for Calleigh," O'Brien says. "She's looking for what may be more of a complete life for her. She does have a very tender interaction with a child ... and they're brought together in a very intimate, tender way. It certainly opens her eyes to a deeper sense of what's out there for her."Consequently, Calleigh may give a second look at resuming her hot-and-cold relationship with Delko (Adam Rodriguez). "They work together in such an intimate fashion, and they've had such a history together," O'Brien says. "You see the power and depth of their feelings toward each other. The door is open, and we see them step through just a bit. They're certainly examining the possibility of what their future holds, and we might see them taking just a few more steps together."Check out our list of TV's sexiest crime fighters!Natalia's season won't be as cheery. After surviving a number of brushes with death last season, Natalia will be a bit shaky. "It has a profound impact on her," O'Brien says. "You'll see her look for support from the team around her as she gets her legs back underneath her and regains her confidence. [CSIs'] instincts have to be sharp, and Natalia has a little bit of a distance to travel to get back to that place."Indeed, all of the team members will have to be on their A-game when they have to reconstruct a crime scene that has been shattered and scattered by a tornado. And the team will have to help a female Mexican police chief who flees to Miami to prevent a drug cartel from murdering her family.But perhaps this season's most disturbing story is that of a depraved serial killer whose terror spree is able to continue because of his father's deep pockets. 24's Carlos Bernard will recur as the patriarch of this rich family who will taunt Horatio all season long.CSI: Miami exclusive: 24 vet is Horatio's new nemesis"There will be a very high-octane relationship between the two," O'Brien says. "A hero is only as heroic as his opposition is deadly, so we're really going to go there with this character."We're going to discover that over the course of the season that they may be pulling a lot more strings politically than meets the eye," O'Brien continues."That will be a driving theme through Season 10 - that Horatio may not completely understand the face of evil that is facing him. ... Horatio's fight for justice might just get compromised."CSI: Miami premieres Sunday at 10/9c on CBS.

Knuckle Documentary Trailer: Bare-Knuckle Boxing Using the Fam!

The Sundance selection Knuckle, Ian Palmer’s documentary about feuding Irish families who participate in illegal bare-knuckle fights to create recognition for their clans, is much more than frightening: It’s angry. The brand new trailer shows all of the hateful grit, bloodied torsos, and familial sanctity imaginable, also it even throws inside a couple of shots from the children fighting too. The mitts are off, and also the violence is on. (Who am I, Gene Shalit?) Secure your sons, watching a clip following the jump. Like a documentary, I imagine Knuckle falls prey that the people are enthusiastic about showing themselves within the right light outdoors the ring. That also doesn’t mean a type of seriously serious dialogue like “Your guy is going to be visiting the hospital, because I’m likely to hurt him any after i can” is any less chilling this trailer bursts with seething conviction, and that i’m particularly thinking about talking with the moms and kids of those pugilists. Have you not wince watching the children punch one another? Using their giggly McDonald’s Playland faces? I want about eight Enya ballads to undo my damage. Knuckle is formally launched December 2.
