Park Chan-Wook's Stoker is a delicious hybrid of its influences, which mix into an engaging fable of its own.
When the film ended up being a sleeper hit, the participants felt that they were badly shortchanged, and they sued Searchlight for what they thought they were owed.
Hitchcock is two things that I despise: It pointlessly rewrites history to give us conformist, pandering character arcs for the sake of 'playing to the masses' and it also takes what should be an adult film and plays it to the level of young children.
On a summery Sunday afternoon in Beverly Hills, I was suddenly thrust into the watery bayou swamps of southern Louisiana, and engrossed in a story, and a world, which has not left my thoughts since for even a moment.

I think Cyrus could serve as a new blueprint for TV movies in 2010. The production costs are low. There are bankable stars. It's funny. It's dramatic. It's engaging.
Cyrus is the definition of good filmmaking and a pure pleasure to watch. The Duplass Brothers take their time with every edit, creating a concise, well thought out narrative.
I spoke with the stars from Our Family Wedding, which centers on the marriage between a young African American man and a Latino bride, and asked them to weigh in on the genre and anything I could think of.
Neither screenwriter Kelly Fremon nor Hollywood starlet, Alexis Bledel could have seen the recent economic meltdown coming when first creating the sentimental teen comedy, Post Grad .
