Vera Farmiga Interview, Up In the Air
22 hours ago | MoviesOnline.ca | See recent MoviesOnline news »
MoviesOnline sat down recently with Vera Farmiga to talk about her new movie,“Up in the Air,” about the timely odyssey of Ryan Bingham (Oscar winner George Clooney), a corporate downsizer and consummate modern business traveler who, after years of staying happily airborne, suddenly finds himself ready to make a real connection. When he falls for a simpatico fellow traveler (Farmiga), Ryan’s boss (Jason Bateman), inspired by a young, upstart efficiency expert (Anna Kendrick), threatens to permanently call him in from the road. Faced with the prospect, at once terrifying and exhilarating, of being grounded, Ryan begins to contemplate what it might actually mean to have a home.
For the vital role of Alex, whose elite travel program savvy seduces Ryan but who also triggers a desire for real sharing, director Jason Reitman turned to award-winning actress Vera Farmiga, best known for her role in Martin Scorsese’s “The Departed. »
Jason Reitman Interview, Up in the Air
22 hours ago | MoviesOnline.ca | See recent MoviesOnline news »
In his first two feature films, Oscar-nominated director Jason Reitman established himself as an original, smart and funny storyteller known for his pitch-perfect commentaries on society. Reitman has a distinctive talent for taking provocative anti-heroes – a tobacco lobbyist in “Thank You for Smoking” and a pregnant teenager in the Oscar-winning “Juno” – and telling deeply human, funny and appealing stories in which these tricky characters defy expectations.
Reitman continues in this vein with his newest film, “Up in the Air,” the well-timed tale of Ryan Bingham (George Clooney), a corporate downsizer and consummate modern business traveler who, after years of staying happily airborne, suddenly finds himself ready to make a real connection. Based on the novel by Walter Kirn, the film also stars Vera Farmiga, Anna Kendrick and Danny McBride.

Orphan: Who’s a good girl, then?
20 November 2009 6:09 AM, PST | t5m.com | See recent t5m.com news »
Jaume Collet-Serra's horror/thriller Orphan certainly treads familiar territory. Imperfect parents Kate (Vera Farmiga) and John (Peter Sarsgaard) head off to the local orphanage to adopt a brother or sister for their two children. With Kate's recent still birth and bouts of alcoholism and infidelity playing heavily in the backstory the pair settle, as much as you don't want them too, on the obviously odd, charming and artistic Esther (Isabelle Fuhrman), a freaky eyed 12 year old Russian girl who insists on wearing vintage dresses. Mistake number one. Max, the couple's hearing impaired youngest daughter takes to Esther immediately. She bizarrely picks up sign language in a matter of days. Oldest boy and Guitar Hero addict Daniel isn't too impressed however and before long Esther's cutsie little girl routine begins to slip. Soon enough it's visits to the shirk and mind games with mummy and daddy galore and when young »

Pitt Enters ‘Dark Void’ of Video Game Movies
19 November 2009 2:33 PM, PST | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »
Brad Pitt’s Plan B production company and India-based conglomerate Reliance Big Pictures have signed a deal with Capcom to bring Dark Void to the screen. The feature is being considering a “starring vehicle” for Pitt and — like everything else — a potential franchise.
Lukewarm responses to game adaptations haven’t seem to deter businesses from spending big bucks on video game movies. Activision is quietly working on a “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2″ movie, “Guitar Hero,” and a Sam Raimi-directed “Warcraft” epic.
“Dark Void,” which isn’t out until January 2010, centers on a pilot named Will who crashes into the Bermuda Triangle. The plummet takes him to an alternate universe where humans battle aliens with advanced technology. Gameplay will mix land and mid-air confrontations through the use of jetpacks. Judging from the poster and the video below, this looks like The Rocketeer meets Iron Man, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. »

HBO’s ‘The Pacific’ Trailer
18 November 2009 11:43 AM, PST | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
HBO is bringing us The Pacific, a WWII story of what went down in the Pacific while the men from Band of Brothers were fighting in Europe.
The series is based on the memoirs of Eugene Sledge and Robert Leckie, both of whom were Marines that served in the Pacific Theater of Operations. It was produced by (you guessed it) Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks (both of whom produced BoB) and Gary Goetzman (producer of Charlie Wilson’s War).
Joseph Mazzello and James Badge Dale have tackled the roles of Sledge and Leckie, respectively. John Seda rounds out the lead parts playing Sergeant John Basilone. Mazzello played the little boy in Jurassic Park (!) all those years ago, Dale popped up in The Departed and The Black Donnellys and Seda’s a former boxer who appeared in Twelve Monkeys and more recently, Bad Boys II.
Here’s the trailer for The Pacific. »

Happy Birthday, Martin Scorsese: Wake-Up Video
17 November 2009 7:00 AM, PST | MTV Newsroom | See recent MTV Newsroom news »
Being a legend can be tough. Sometimes you're not entirely appreciated until after you die (or at least until after you stop making work that people pay attention to). Sometimes it's worse than that, and you're forced to toil under the burden of your past accomplishments, forever failing to live up to what you did decades ago. This is especially true in the film world. Because the lifespan of a director can cross over a number of eras, movements and business outlooks, it seems like a number of artists whose places in the annals of movie history were formerly secure now struggle to find relevance.
Martin Scorsese doesn't have that problem. He's a rare combination of living legend and active genius, constantly pushing himself to the limit and experimenting with his storytelling skills. He could have easily settled into a pattern of simple crime dramas for the rest of his career, »

Lindsay Lohan newest crush and her self-described “perfect man” is none other than A-list actor Leonardo DiCaprio. The troubled Irish-American actress is pining over “The Departed” star, even though sources say he is not interested in a romantic relationship with her. “Lindsay has a major crush on Leonardo but that’s as far as it goes right now,” and insider told Contactmusic. “She knows him, they are friends but that’s it.

A source shared: “As soon as Lindsay saw Leonardo she was like a bee to honey. When she spotted him in a dark corner of the club she headed straight for him. »
Scorsese to Receive DeMille Award at Golden Globes
14 November 2009 6:07 PM, PST | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »
You could give Martin Scorsese just about any award you want and I don't think anyone would protest. Though he emerged at a time when American film was really blossoming, you could really only argue that among his contemporaries, Steven Spielberg is on the same level. Even then, I'm not certain Spielberg has been as consistent or as daring as Scorsese has in his career. They're also shooting for different goals most of the time.
A couple years ago, Scorsese finally got his Oscar, even if it's not the best example of his work and certainly not the first time he earned the award. At the Golden Globes in January, Scorsese will receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award for his "outstanding contribution to the entertainment field." Spielberg, incidentally, won this past year.

Scorsese to Receive Honorary Golden Globe
13 November 2009 1:21 PM, PST | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »
The Hollywood Foreign Press will bestow its honorary Cecil B. DeMille Award to Martin Scorsese during the Golden Globes on January 17, according to Variety.
Scorsese, who is a few days from his 67th birthday, is responsible for several movies legendary for their gritty, sometimes expressionistic, portrayals of violence. These include Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, and GoodFellas.
He also crafted many underrated gems that explored various social and cultural issues. These include The King of Comedy (the obsessions of celebrity culture), The Last Temptation of Christ (a non-Gospel, first-person telling of Jesus's internal struggle), Kundun (the life of the Dalai Lama), and Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (the trials of single-motherhood).
The DeMille Award recognizes the lifetime achievement of various actors and directors. Recent recipients include Steven Spielberg, Robin Williams, and Al Pacino. Earlier recipients include Walt Disney, Fred Astaire, Judy Garland, and Alfred Hitchcock, among others. You can »

Martin Scorsese to Receive Golden Globes' Cecil B. DeMille Award
12 November 2009 10:09 PM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
For my money, Martin Scorsese is one of the most influential filmmakers working in Hollywood today, and his films are nothing short of inspirational, provocative labors of love and life. It seems the Hollywood Foreign Press Association also agrees as Variety reports that he will be this year's recipient of the Cecil B. DeMille Award recognizing a person's outstanding contribution to the entertainment field, which just last year was given to Scorsese's longtime friend, fellow filmmaker Steven Spielberg. Scorsese will be honored by several of his peers and collaborators when the show (hosted by Ricky Gervais) airs live January 17th. Scorsese has received two Golden Globe Awards for his work as director on The Departed and Gangs of New York as well as nominations in directing for Casino, Age of Innocence, Goodfellas and Raging Bull. As overly-long and boring as the awards shows usually are, I love these lifetime achievement »

The Hfpa announced today that Martin Scorsese will be honored with the Cecil B. DeMille Award at the Golden Globes this January. There must be some feeling of deja vu for the acclaimed filmmaker about the award. Just last year, Scorsese helped present buddy Steven Spielberg with the same honor. The organization's lifetime achievement will be Scorsese's third Globe. He previously won best director for "The Departed" and "Gangs of New York." Scorsese won his first Academy Award in 2006 for "The Departed." Will Spielberg return the favor and present to Scorsese? We'll soon find out. The Golden Globes will... »
Martin Scorsese To Be Honored at 2010 Golden Globes with Cecil B. DeMille Award
12 November 2009 12:59 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
In January, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) will bestow the Honorary Cecile B. DeMille Award to Martin Scorsese for “his outstanding contribution to the entertainment field,” to which we say “Congratulations, Mr. Scorsese.” Of course, any award honoring Scorsese’s career is well-earned by the prolific and influential director. His lengthy and diverse filmography naturally contains movies which flopped and received no support from film critics, but when you look at his hits, he has left an unforgettable stamp on not only American cinema, but on audiences the world over. That his work continues to improve and defy simple definition is an inspiration to aspiring filmmakers and a challenge to his peers. There’s only one complaint people have about the awards Scorsese receives: they’re overdue.

The Hollywood Foreign Press has just announced Martin Scorsese will be the recipient of the Cecil B. DeMille Award for his "outstanding contribution to the entertainment field" at the 2010 Golden Globe Awards.

Scorsese won his first Best Director Oscar in 2007, but before that won a Golden Globe for directing Gangs of New York as well as also winning a Globe for The Departed.
The 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards will take place on January 17 and hosted Ricky Gervais. The ceremony will be broadcast live coast to coast Sunday, January 17 on NBC (5 to 8 pm Pt, 8 to 11 pm Et) from The Beverly Hilton. Nominations will be announced at 5:00 a.m. on Tuesday, December 15. »
