Video Trailer of Splice, Starring Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley

In perhaps the most convincing anti-cloning argument I've ever seen, Warner Brothers has just released the trailer for Splice, a horror film which had its debut at Sundance this year. Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley star as two geneticists who toy with DNA and scientifically birth what can only be described as part Coneheads baby, part Gollum. I'm talking major heebie-jeebie factor, people. The Read more

Why I Love ... Sarah Polley

Even the dark strike cloud hovering over Hollywood can't dampen the annual awards season excitement about certain projects and actors (Juno! Daniel Day-Lewis! Atonement!). Yet, there's one woman enjoying an equally exciting year who has remained characteristically low-key about it all: Sarah Polley. Polley has been acting for years, from the TV series Road to Avonlea to off-beat films like Read more

Who Should Play Ramona Quimby, Age 8?

Guess which rambunctious 8-year-old is coming to the big screen? That's right, Ramona Quimby! Based on the beloved series by Beverly Cleary, Fox 2000 has greenlit a film adaptation titled simply Ramona. Elizabeth Allen (Aquamarine) has just signed on to direct, but no actors are attached to the project as of yet. There doesn't appear to be a definitely plot determined yet, either, so who knows Read more

Casting News: Sarah Polley and... Jared Leto?

Here's a weird news item for the day: Jared Leto has been cast in a romantic comedy titled Mr. Nobody. Wait, it gets weirder: his costar in the movie is Sarah Polley, the smart, thoughtful writer/director of Away From Her, one of this year's best movies (mark my words!). According to Hollywood Reporter: Nobody is described as a multilayered love story inspired by the "butterfly effect," the Read more

Away From Her: Poignant But Not Sappy

I went into the Away From Her movie screening with a stack of tissues, fully prepared to bawl my eyes out over this story about a marriage being tested by Alzheimer's. Yet the sobfest never happened. The story is mostly sad, it's true, but it is also realistically told and casts an unapologetic light on each character. So while there is great sympathy for them, the movie never cycles through Read more

Take This Waltz Trailer

The trailer for Take This Waltz has "precious indie movie" written all over it, right down to the fact that the preview gives us little in the way of plot. Instead, we glean what we can from watching Michelle Williams lead a comfortable married life with Seth Rogen, until she's enticed by a handsome new guy (played by Luke Kirby). Though I wish this preview had more dialogue, I'm already Read more
