Hbo S Trust Everything We Know So Far About The Kate Winslet Drama

HBO’s Trust: Everything We Know So Far About The Kate Winslet Drama HBO By Jeremy Smith/June 29, 2022 2:49 pm EST We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Whenever Kate Winslet makes a limited series for HBO, she wins an Emmy. She earned her first Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries or Movie trophy 11 years ago for her bruisingly real portrayal of the title character in Todd Haynes’ “Mildred Pierce,” and took home her second last year for her stunningly layered performance as a perceptive, beat-down-by-life detective in “Mare of Easttown....

Hunt For The Wilderpeople S Original Script Struck A Much Darker Tone

Hunt For The Wilderpeople’s Original Script Struck A Much Darker Tone Piki Films By Erin Brady/July 1, 2022 12:43 pm EST Many people think of Taika Waititi’s work as relentlessly positive and humorous, and for a good reason. Movies like “What We Do in the Shadows,” “Boy,” and “Thor: Ragnarok” all felt infectiously fun and happy despite sometimes veering into darker territory. This is why it might be surprising that one of his earliest works was actually pretty depressing....

James Gunn Says Vigilante Is Much More Of A Sociopath Than Peacemaker

James Gunn Says Vigilante Is Much More Of A Sociopath Than Peacemaker Warner Bros. By Danielle Ryan/Jan. 14, 2022 10:12 am EST In “The Suicide Squad,” John Cena’s Peacemaker is a pretty irredeemable jerk. After his third-act heel turn, it’s hard to imagine rooting for him. So how does the “Peacemaker” HBO Max series make viewers not only cheer for Peacemaker, but feel empathetic towards him? James Gunn, who wrote the series and directed five of the eight episodes, uses a wide variety of storytelling techniques to make Christopher Smith, aka Peacemaker, more sympathetic....

The Bridge On The River Kwai S Bridge Went Through An Incredible Construction Process

No miniatures for this epic Columbia When Sam Spiegel spoke with director Howard Hawks about making “Bridge on the River Kwai,” the veteran filmmaker’s interest quickly waned, according to Natasha Fraser-Cavassoni’s “Sam Spiegel” biography. Spiegel wanted a big-budget epic and an American lead, but Hawks, as others would, felt the story was ultimately more marginal and in need of a “limited budget.” It took David Lean, then working on the set of the lush 1955 Katharine Hepburn romance “Summertime,” for Spiegel to find someone who could see what he saw....

It’s one of the most quotable movies of all time (“Lucky!”) mostly because of its awkward, nonsensically brash sense of humor. Everything about it is weird, and that’s why it is so good....

The Super Bowl Overshadowed A Weird Crowded Weekend At The Box Office

Marry Me and Blacklight Both Underperform Universal Pictures The weekend’s other new releases couldn’t be more different from one another — and yet, they both failed to live up to expectations in their own ways. Starting with “Marry Me,” the new rom-com that serves as an “Anaconda” reunion of sorts for Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson, landing in the number three spot with $8 million. That’s well below what a rom-com like this might typically have made in pre-pandemic times, and it certainly doesn’t help that Netlflix has made a steady stream of romcoms available from the comfort of home for years now....

We Re Glad We Never Had To See Fox S Version Of Clueless

We’re Glad We Never Had To See Fox’s Version Of Clueless Paramount Pictures By Lyvie Scott/Feb. 18, 2022 4:14 pm EST It’s been almost 30 years since its release, but “Clueless” is still considered to be one of the best Jane Austen adaptations out there, if not the most accessible. Austen’s tongue-in-cheek novel “Emma” served as loose (and I mean loose) framework for director/writer Amy Heckerling’s own comedy of manners. It turns out that a story of wealth, privilege and naivete works as seamlessly in 19th-century England as it does in mid-90s Beverly Hills; even Austen’s titular heroine seems perfectly suited to the lifestyle of Cher Horowitz....
