Stephen Frears Reteaming with 'High Fidelity' Writer
7 November 2009 8:02 AM, PST | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »
High Fidelity should have done better at the box office a million years ago. It did Ok considering - $27 million plus about another $20 million internationally, but I think Disney was probably the wrong place to distribute it, and it probably never made a big impression on a lot of people until it hit the home video market.
One of the things the film shows is the versatility of director Stephen Frears (The Queen). It doesn't hurt that they had a fantastic Nick Hornby novel to work from, and now, a decade later, Frears and High Fidelity screenwriter D.V. DeVincentis might reunite to tackle "a dramedy set in the world of geeky gamblers," according to The Hollywood Reporter. The project is an adaptation of the upcoming memoir Lay the Favorite, Take the Dog by Beth Raymer, which is basically 21 with middle-age guys. »

New Moon soundtrack
4 November 2009 11:49 AM, PST | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
[1] New Moon, as anyone frequenting any type of mass media would probably know, is the second part of the filmings of Stephanie Meyers' Twilight Saga. This part, directed by Chris Weitz, has its release on November 20, and apparently the soundtrack sizzled as it hit the audience. The New Moon soundtrack is more expansive in styles than its predecessor. Again responsible for the song choices is musical supervisor Alexandra Patsavas, and it seems she has been destined to lift several bands out of obscurity and into the mainstream. Acts such as Grizzly Bear and Lykke Li are present, having previously been cult status performers. Carter Burwell composed the score for the previous movie, but this time the Oscar nominated Alexandre Desplat of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and The Queen fame is in charge. One has to admit that Patsavas has compiled a pleasing combination of styles. None of its »

Movie Review: The Damned United

Running Time: 97 miin
MPAA Rating: R
Distributor: BBC Films

"The Damned United" is a "based on a true life story about sports", in fact a great one, but director Tom Hooper finds it necessary to fulfill the film with off-field drama and tension, relying very little on the actual game of soccer. The lack of on-field action isn't missed at all because there is a hypnotizing portrait of hatred being presented, and that is the film's main priority. Mr. Hooper perceives a myriad of vanities within a single human being which ultimately lead him being reduced to a man without a moral center, establishing himself solely within his own mad ambitions. This represents a tale Shakespeare or the Greeks would examine, where one man is so consumed by his own »

New Bond Film to Shoot Next Year?
27 October 2009 10:58 AM, PDT | Manny the Movie Guy | See recent Manny the Movie Guy news »
If we are to believe the current James Bond, Daniel Craig, then the 23rd 007 film will start shooting late next year.
Craig gave that timeline answer to a fan asking him about production of the next Bond film while exiting the stage door for "A Steady Rain," the Broadway play he's starring with Hugh Jackman.
But MGM had no comment.
This is what we know -- Peter Morgan, Neal Purvis, and Robert Wade are writing the script for the new Bond film. Purvis and Wade both worked on "Quantum of Solace" and "Casino Royale."
Morgan, is the brilliant scriptwriter behind "The Queen" and "Frost/Nixon."
There's no director attached to the film yet, so stay tuned... »
