		<description><![CDATA[The title Giallo refers, generically, to a distinctive kind of Italian horror-thriller film, of which writer-director Dario Argento has been a leading exponent since his 1970 debut The Bird with the Crystal Plumage.

As such, it’s a very self-referential title, akin to Pulp Fiction, and one which is also indicative of the film’s nature, that it is more for his fan-base in Italy and internationally than an attempt to reach a new audience.

 
The big question, even as far as this audience is concerned, is whether the film can live up to fan expectation. Or, insofar as Argento’s stock is currently at a low level in the wake of a string of poorly received films – 2004’s The Card Player, 2005’s Do You Like Hitchcock and 2007’s The Third Mother – whether it might actually surpass them for those sufficiently dedicated to find out.

Amongst mainstream critics, meanwhile, Argento’s reputation, such as it is, is that virtuoso stylist who is not particularly with narrative and characterisation, and whose work is often marred by its gratuitous violence and misogyny.

While he has tried to address these criticisms, the results as seen in the likes of 1993’s Trauma and 1996’s The Stendhal Syndrome, have ended up ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[THE BROTHERS BLOOM is on the move again, the unfortunate victim of being an unusual genre movie a studio doesn't quite know what to do with.

For the second time, Summit Entertainment have delayed Rian Johnson's well liked con/adventure/comedy movie, this time moving it from a early January release all the way to May 15th, where it will run in a limited release for 2 weeks before going wide.


Originally the movie focusing on Adrien Brody and Mark Ruffalo as two con artists who meet their match with the eccentric billionaire Rachel Weisz was to open wide in October, after it's stellar play at the Toronto International Film Festival. The Weinsteins then decided to dump it to a quiet January release but after another set of good reviews at the BFI Film Festival, it seems they have had a change of heart and once again think the movie can perform.

May is the much stronger month for movies and shows the level of confidence they now have in the film but it's also the month where it will be up against the studio blockbusters.

On May 29th for instance... there's Pixar's UP to contend with. Anyway in the meanwhile, you can read both our ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This poster &#38; trailer combination went up a few days ago, we were a little late picking it up. Sorry folks (full poster, after the jump below or HERE).



The movie is CADILLAC RECORDS, a music biopic we have been tracking for a over a year now. It was originally to star Matt Dillion as Leonard Chess, the founder of famed R &#38; B label Chess Records and his successful time as a music producer in the 50's and 60's.

Dillion was replaced by Adrien Brody and the likes of Jeffrey Wright, Mos Def and Beyonce Knowles jumped on board the project that only finished production six months ago and is heading straight for a rushed, commercialised Christmas release to beat another Chess biopic, WHO DO YOU LOVE, that played at the Toronto International Film Festival.



CLICK HERE TO SEE THE TRAILER

The trailer carries a very commercial, almost DREAMGIRLS esque tone heightened no doubt by the appearance of Beyonce and the same kind of colour scheme, most notable in the recording studio sets. It also doesn't feel very dramatic, I didn't see much of a hook or tension for me to wanna pay my money to see how this tale pans out.

Acting wise, ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Matt here... this is our second review of THE BROTHERS BLOOM. Our first was conducted by Daniel Faulkner, out at the Toronto International Film Festival.

He also spoke to director Rian Johnson for an exclusive interview, which you can read here.

Now, OWF's Mark Clark was at the LFF last week where he saw THE BROTHERS BLOOM and took the shots from the premiere which accompanies this review.



The con artist movie; film-makers are attracted to them because they provide an in-built opportunity for multi-layered story-telling, sleight of hand, a platform for tricks. But creating one is also a self-imposed test of nerves because if there’s one story type that’s hard to do well it’s this one. And the attraction for the audience? Well as the saying goes, an audience would rather be confused than bored

In Rian Johnson’s follow up to his mesmeric debut, the high-school film noir BRICK, he takes his chance at creative self-examination with his story about the itinerant BROTHERS BLOOM; a pair of con men first attracted by the possibilities of pulling the wool over cash-rich eyes when just a pair of troublesome boys, carrying with them a life experience of empty pockets and a collection of foster homes. ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This week we are expecting to have some exclusive interviews and content for The Brothers Bloom, the follow-up from director Rian Johnson's exciting debut film Brick which stars Mark Ruffalo and Adrien Brody as two con men brothers who meet their match in the glamorous and eccentric Rachel Weisz.

Even though I let my feelings well known that the trailer completely lowered my expectations for the film, I still wanted to see it. These are fine actors, who very rarely put in a bad performance and the plot had so much potential and Johnson is a director I have been tracking for a while.

The news today though further puts doubts into the quality of the $20 million film which we are seeing at the Toronto Film Festival this weekend. The Weinsteins have pulled the movie from it's October 24th wide release and turned it into a December 19th limited release, they are clearly worried about it's commercial viability.


Depending on how the limited release goes, a wider one is penciled in for mid-January. This comes from the director's own message board...
There were a few reasons for the move: October and November are crowded as hell, it’s a tough tough market, especially for ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If I remember rightly the trailer for Rian Johnson's caper comedy The Brothers Bloom, the follow-up to his outstanding modern day film noir Brick was released the weekend before last, at the height of the Comic Con media blitz.

I remember watching it but not giving myself enough time to right about it, though I'm sure if the trailer had blown me away like I was hoping and expecting it to with the cast involved, then I would have found time to talk about it before now.

The Brothers Bloom features Adrien Brody and Mark Ruffalo as a pair of con artist brothers who take the extremely eccentric millionaire Rachel Weisz on a trip around the world, whilst at the same time trying to rob her out of money in one big last job. Great plot but sadly it looks about as cool as Johnny English rather than Ocean's Eleven, most of the gags don't work - it's way too light hearted for it's own good. Looks pretty appalling actually.

The movie opens October 24th.

		<description><![CDATA[Shock Till You Drop carry our first look at Giallo, the next movie from Italian horror maestro Dario Argento which is a homage to the 70's movement of the "Giallo" cinema (meaning yellow) which I always find the best way to describe as saying it was similar to the British Hammer Horror movement.

Plot then our our first look below...
The film revolves around an American flight attendant who teams with an Italian investigator to search for her missing sister who has been abducted by a serial killer known only as Yellow.
Adrien Brody plays the inspector and Emmanuelle Seigner (The Diving Bell and the Butterfly) plays the flight attendant.

		<description><![CDATA[Adrien Brody has joined Dario Argento's next movie Giallo.

The title and plot refer to the "Giallo" (meaning yellow) genre of cinema that existed in the Italian cinema of the 70's that would focus on pulp stories that were heavy amounts gore and blood with a operatic tone and slasher film whodunit plots filled with sexual eroticism. It was a little similiar to the British movement of the Hammer Horror series of films but more raw and visceral.
The film revolves around an American flight attendant who teams with an Italian investigator to search for her missing sister who has been abducted by a serial killer known only as Yellow.
I always thought Brody's withdrawn kind of acting always suited a detective/investigator. I wonder how good his Italian accent is!

Also joining the film are Emmanuelle Seigner and Elsa Pataky and The Hollywood Reporter make no mention of Vincent Gallo or Ray Liotta who Variety claim were cast in January - so it would seem they are off the flick.

Production begins May 12th. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I knew it was too good to be true when I reported in October that the often wasted talent of Matt Dillon had actually find himself in another project (he's doing some movies with Coppola which are positive signs) that would challenge him and maybe inspire the actor that we all remember used to reside within him.

That project was CADILLAC RECORDS, a Sony BMG film where Dillon was set to play Leonard Chess, the guy who created the "Chess Records" music label that birthed the careers of such figures as R &#38; B legends Muddy Watters, Etta James and Chuck Berry.

Now comes word from Variety that the role has gone to Adrien Brody, with no reason given as to why Dillon got replaced, though it would seem likely it's down to scheduling conflicts on Coppola's TETRO.

Brody is an actor I am quite fond of and he already has a 50's style persona to his acting which would make him better suited to the role than Dillon even if I was looking forward to seeing Dillon put in some good work again. Still, he's got TETRO upcoming and Brody will be more suited to this flick in any case.

The trade mention ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Directed by: Wes Anderson

Written by: Wes Anderson, Roman Coppola, Jason Schwartzman

Starring: Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman, Anjelica Huston, Natalie Portman, Bill Murray

Distributed by: Fox Searchlight Pictures

Film will be released in the U.K. on 23rd November 2007.

Review by Michael Edwards

[rating: 3.5]

Wes Anderson is back, and he brings with him the usual rag-tag of dysfunctional relations played by his favoured actors, in the usual kooky colour schemes and with familiar visual stylings. This time three brothers (Owen Wilson, Jason Schwartzman - who actually co-wrote the film, and Adrien Brody) who haven't spoken since the funeral of their father meet up on a train, the eponymous Darjeeling Limited, and travel on a journey across India and through their various psychological issues.

If repetition and recurrence seemed a theme in my opening paragraph, it's because this is Wes Anderson's third film that uses more or less the same cast, style, themes and plot. The journey may have been transposed from a cityscape or a boat to a train, but the tale essentially retains the same focus on overcoming the past and, in particular, the legacy left behind by family issues. The Freudian angle to The Darjeeling Limited extends as far as to have Adrien ...]]></description>
