Scenes We Love: Immortal Beloved
4 December 2009 3:03 PM, PST | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »
I've written briefly about this scene before, a few years ago, when I retro reviewed Immortal Beloved. Gary Oldman plays a young Beethoven, struggling to keep his descending deafness a secret from those around him. Unbeknownst to him, his student and passion, Guilietta, has schemed up a deal with her father so that he will accept Beethoven's proposal of marriage. A piano will be placed into the room, and while the composer thinks everyone is away, father and daughter will hide and listen to see if there is still music left in the man. If there is, Guilietta can marry Ludwig.
While they hide behind a wall, Beethoven walks over to the piano with trepidation, sits down, and hammers out some jarring notes. It looks like he has, indeed, lost it -- that her father was right. But then a few notes hesitantly flow from Beethoven's fingers. He »

Uma Thurman Says “The best kiss I ever had” Was From My Ex-husband
1 December 2009 8:22 AM, PST | Gossipvita | See recent Gossipvita news »
The 39-year-old actress says the romantic scenes she shared with Ethan Hawke – with whom she has two children, Maya, 11, and Levon, seven – in 1997 movie ‘Gattaca’ are her all-time favourites because she had such strong feelings for him. She said: "The best kiss I ever had for a movie was with the guy I married, because I was really hot for him back then.” Uma, who was also previously married to actor Gary Oldman, is now engaged to millionaire businessman Arpad Busson but says she still loves Ethan, who she divorced in 2004. She said: "I love the man still, I really do. Hey, we have two kids together. That's very special. I'll always love him." Uma recently said she has no immediate plans to walk down the aisle again. She said: "I'm happily engaged, but we haven't set a wedding up. I'm not in a rush to do anything. One day we'll do it, »

Should You Judge the Book of Eli by its New Poster?
25 November 2009 11:04 AM, PST | LatinoReview | See recent LatinoReview news »
Denzel Washington's latest movie, The Book of Eli is all set to hit theaters in January 2010. But in case you're apt to forget that, what with visions of Avatar and Sherlock Holmes dancing in your head, the studio has released a new poster to help promote it. With the tagline "Believe to help guide your way -- Get it? You can't spell "believe" without "Eli"! -- the poster reminds us that certifiable badass Washington is the star and protector of the Book of Eli, and Gary Oldman will be there to prove once again that if there's a bad guy in a film, it should (almost) always be played by him. Other than that, the poster's a little lackluster -- but don't take my word for it. Click the image below to head over to the source to see the poster in full. And if you're feeling bored, or »
Bad-Ass! New Book of Eli Poster Surfaces Online!
25 November 2009 7:44 AM, PST | FusedFilm | See recent FusedFilm news »
MySpace has unveiled the new poster for brothers Allen and Albert Hughes’ The Book of Eli, which comes to theaters January 15. I have been waiting for this film since catching wind of it at Comic-Con. The movie seems like your standard post-apocalyptic film which is awesome. I love Gary Oldman as well who plays the villain, something he does very well.
As far as the poster goes it is nice shot of Denzel sort of giving him that glamour shot.
The Book of Eli, revolves around a lone hero Eli (Denzel Washington) who fights his way across the wasteland of post-apocalyptic America. He’sthe protector of a sacred book that may hold the key to saving humanity. The film also stars Gary Oldman, who plays Carnegie a town leader/spiritual leader/mayor, etc. The atypical persona of someone capitalizing on the fear and survival of everyone else for power. Oh »

New Book Of Eli Poster Focuses On Denzel
25 November 2009 7:10 AM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
Despite the prospect of seeing Denzel Washington and Gary Oldman facing off against each other, I'm still a little puzzled about The Book of Eli, a movie that looks to be for post-apocalyptic movies what 2012 was for the actual apocalypse. As in, here's as many barren wastelands and unscrupulous warlords as you can possibly handle, but not necessarily presented in an original or interesting way. Then again, the movie at least has an intriguing cast, and it comes out in the middle of January, which is such a nightmare for new releases that Eli may be the best option by default. Check out the new poster for the film, which debuted at MySpace, and tell me if you feel the same kind of defeated allegiance to Denzel Washington and his grizzled beard. That's the dark side of allowing an actor to be universally beloved-- it's great to see him, but »

Post-apocalyptic action flick, The Book of Eli, starring Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, Michael Gambon, Mila Kunis, and Ray Stevenson has itself a new poster courtesy of MySpace.

Gary Oldman, Mila Kunis, and Ray Stevenson co-star in the Warner Bros. production.

Won’t be too much longer before the “Book Of Eli”, a tale of a Clint Eastwood (ish) man, alone on the road, fully equipped and chock full of all kinds of serious Sci-Fi badass and determined to protect something in his possession that could change the fate of mankind from grungy to golden. “Book Of Eli” hits on January 15th next year and also stars Gary Oldman, Mila Kunis, Ray Stevenson, Jennifer Beals and Evan Jones and was directed by the Hughes Brothers. Here’s the latest poster for the movie, closeup on Denzel, who’s obviously grimly determined to paint the town red. »
