Still Getting Jobs
http://blog.trendyreel.org/2008/05/24/still-getting-jobs/So what if there may be an actor’s strike in a few weeks, that is not stopping anyone from securing work. Condense list below: Richard Dreyfuss is on his way to the White House via Oliver Stone. Daniel Day-Lewis goes Musical. No not High School Musical. Highlander is being remade to present time…somewhat. Dreamworks Americanizes Japanese film Yomigaeri Jake Gyllenhaal is the Prince of Persia.

Some of their defense tactics: journalists will only be allowed to interview the cast and filmmakers before the press screening, and they won’t be invited to the film’s after party. Because limited access *always* ensures positive pres coverage! Daniel Day-Lewis is in talks to replace Javier Bardem in Rob Marshall’s feature adaptation of Nine, a musical sort of based on Fellini’s 8 1/2. Because men who win Oscars for playing mad men are apparently interchangeable when it comes to casting musicals! Joe Dante––who we love––has signed on to direct an indie horror flick called Bat Out of Hell, about “a red-eye flight from L.A. to New York during which hijackers confront the monstrous cargo.” Because the last semi-intentional camp thriller set on an airplane did so well!

And then, somewhere in the distance, there are scarves. Where did this new trend come from? What the heck do you make of a dude who always wears a scarf? Newly minted leading man Jason Segel has absolutely no idea either. “After a while you’re not so sure where I’m coming from. You don’t know what to make of me,” Segel said of his character in the new Paul Rudd comedy, “I Love You, Man,” the story of a guy who “realizes he doesn’t have any close friends to be his best man. He needs to go out and find a best friend,” Segel said. “And I am the candidate for that.” But why wouldn’t we know what to make of him? What could turn an otherwise reasonable man into something of an enigma? “I get to wear a lot of scarves,” Segel chuckled. Segel and Rudd are both on big rolls right now. Are you looking forward to their new comedy? Also, really, not to sound like Seinfeld or anything, but ‘What’s the deal with scarves?’ Sound off below.

Sean Penn disqualifies Cannes films that don’t reflect “current climate”
http://lookingcloser.wordpress.com/2008/05/15/sean-penn-disq...Sean Penn disqualifies Cannes films that don’t reflect “current climate” May 15, 2008 by Jeffrey Overstreet Aaaaaaaand they’re off! The Cannes Film Festival has begun, which means Indiana Jones is suiting up for his first big-screen adventure in twenty years, and a crop of great works of art destined to be almost ignored in America are about to screen for very lucky audiences. Sean Penn, president of this year’s Cannes Film Festival jury, is already defining how this jury will choose the winner. Penn said it was impossible to separate film from politics, and promised that the winning film would be a reflection of the current climate. “One way or another, when we select the Palme d’Or winner, I think we are going to feel very confident that the film-maker who made the film is very aware of the times in which he or she lives.” This doesn’t sound like “We’re looking for a great work of art.” Instead, this sounds like “We’re looking for someone who reads the newspaper.” Isn’t this unfair? What if there’s a period piece that’s the next Babette’s Feast*? Will Penn dismiss it because it doesn’t provide any critique of Dubya’s presidency? Okay, I’m overstating things. But I do hope the jury will be open to the timeless, rather than just the timely. *Originally, I wrote “Citizen Kane,” but that was a poor example, as pointed out in the comments. I’ve revised it accordingly. Posted in Uncategorized
