Born in Coventry, West Midlands, England in October 1965, actor Clive Owen is the quintessential handsome man. Put him in any movie looking dapper and sharp or get him rolling around in the mud and dirt and he'll still come up looking amazing.[...] Read more!
There are actually a number of good cinematic depictions of game theory. The ferry boat scene from "Dark Knight" (2008) is one for the ages, although I find Cyrus' speech at the beginning of "The Warriors" (1979) to be a really nice depiction of a prisoner's dilemma. I teach "Children of Men" (2006) as part of my politics and film class, and I find that game theory is...
The sounds of Sigur Rós feature prominently in The Boys Are Back, a new family drama from Shine director Scott Hicks that stars Clive Owen. The soundtrack features seven Sigur Rós songs, primarily from their 2008 album Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust, as well as Indian Summer from Jónsi & Alex’s Riceboy Sleeps project. The [...]
News: Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment have announced the Region 1 DVD release of The Boys are Back on 26th January 2010. Inspired by the true story of Australian Simon Carr, Clive Owen stars in this drama about an irreverent and independent sportswr...
I'm filling in for Megan today so I'm afraid the cool factor will be missing from your Friday post. My apologies in advance. Some of you may know that I am on Team Eric. But Megan is Team Bill. This picture is a good enough illustration of why that might be. Notice, please, that Bill, er, Stephen, is wearing the official New York uniform of black. Here's another example of Megan-esque cool. Let's just...
GERARD BUTLER feels left out of the celebrity perfume trend - he wants to launch his own fragrance.The Scottish star is convinced he's the only British actor without his...
If ever you wanted to smell like Gerard Butler perhaps you will get your chance! Seems the Scottish hunk wants his own perfume line and tells the BBC Radio 1’s Scott Mills Show : “I need a perfume,” I need to tell my publicist to get on that. He’s not got me any worthwhile branding. Clive Owen has his aftershave, Ewan McGregor has cologne . What do I have? Nothing. I don’t
Though the communists officially won the Vietnam War, from all accounts capitalism is making serious inroads. An exhibit was set up in the North Light Court of City Hall which was open to the public on Monday until it wasn't. The place was being guarded by about a dozen black-suited security men who looked like they stepped out of a bad international thriller starring Clive Owen. The room was featuring...
Monica Bellucci. The impossibly pneumatic Italian actress. Favourite appearance - the superb 'How Much Do You Love Me?' More Pics of Monica Bellucci Bellucci's film career began in the early 1990s. In 1992, she made her first appearance in a major English-language film as one of Dracula 's brides in Bram Stoker's Dracula . She became known and popular with worldwide audiences, following her roles in...
My co-worker Doug has become Football-Curious. Between me talking about Liverpool every week (lately: moaning about Liverpool most every week) and an article he read about Clive Owen talking about being a Liverpool supporter, he has taken an interest in the Reds. He asks me tons of questions whenever we work together, everything from “What’s [...]
Following up on the inside track we recently gave you on the best-picture race, here's an update on the slugfest over best actor. Bullets alongside entries on the list below connote the five guys I think will still be standing when nominees are announced. My own favorite performance is Viggo Mortensen's at this point, but "The Road" may be too gruesome for that delicate academy crowd. Jeff...
Arnold Schwarzenegger is the greatest star of all time. Everyone else (Cary Grant, Bruce Willis, James Stewart, Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise etc) are all mere mortals who you may like, but are still just people. Schwarzenegger on the other hand was a God to my 13-year-old eyes. His films up to True Lies in 1994 are mostly all classics. I’ll take The Running Man over pretty much any modern action...
He's our Paul Schrader, on an idiosyncratic journey, so why haven't my US friends heard of Poliakoff? Whenever my American friends ask me to name a good English director they've not heard of, I always push them towards the work of Stephen Poliakoff , whose Glorious 39 arrives this week. And those who take up my recommendation/challenge usually come back about three weeks later, after a bracing immersion...
Children of Men – dir. Alfonso Cuarón Sometimes a bit of technical prowess is all a film needs to assert itself as a classic. It worked for Battleship Potemkin , and it may as well do the same for Alfonso Cuarón’s marvel of an apocalyptic thriller Children of Men . If you happened to have missed the film in the theatre, you missed quite a lot. The collective efforts of Cuarón,...
