While it makes us uncomfortable when we hear that a new venture from movie legend Morgan Freeman is called Digiboo, we still love the concept . Those Redbox kiosks all over the place that rent movies (without having to interrupt some pimpled teen text'ing their BFF) has just gone digital. Digiboo, partnering with Freeman's Revelations Entertainment, is launching a digital self service system akin...
Which country comes top of the class for sexiness? I was always told that a person’s personality is what counts. These latest findings seem to disagree. A recent survey asked 5,000 women worldwide what they thought was the world’s sexiest accent. 10. American. Naturally at the top of the list, but we’re in reverse order. No wonder they [...]
I missed this trailer when it popped up, it's the trailer for Crazy Heart, a new film starring Jeff Bridges, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Colin Farrell and the superb Robert Duvall. It tells the story of an aged country music singer whose life has really broken him down and through his many marriages he now finds himself drinking too much and travelling from small time gig to small time gig. Then a journalist...
By Jenny DCF It’s no secret that I love Terry Gilliam’s work: the wild fantasy, the sarcastic wit, the characters who run the gamut from caricatures to real, well developed, believable people caught up in dreamlike adventures. His films are distinctive. The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus is vintage Gilliam: it has roots in Time Bandits and Baron Munchausen and even The Brothers Grimm (though...

Fox Searchlight has released the trailer for their latest Oscar caliber movie, “Crazy Heart.” Touted as the next “Wrestler”, Jeff Bridges plays Bad Blake, an alcoholic country singer that is trying to find inspiration for his glory days at the top of the charts. He meets a reporter, played by Maggie Gyllenhaal that inspires him [...]
These days so many movies are overly large, loud, glitzy, glamorous, quirky or strange that when a film comes out that appears to just a simple, well told story I can’t help but get excited. Crazy Horse appears to be such a movie and I am therefore quite excited about it. The trailer doesn’t give too much of the plot away (always a plus) but it’s clear that the film is about an aging...
Yesterday we saw the first poster and images from Crazy Heart, Fox Searchlight's film which stars Jeff Bridges as "a washed-up, alcoholic country singer who gets his life back on track thanks to a reporter-type (Maggie Gyllenhaal)." I've heard from a couple of people in the know that Bridges will be a contender for Best Actor with his performance. And lets not forget that Robert Duval and...
A month ago, there was very little known about the Jeff Bridges led drama Crazy Heart, from first time director Scott Cooper. But ever since Fox Searchlight set a release date, we've been hit with a flood of new info that has piqued our interest.

Two interesting things got brought up by schmoes, FrancoYesca & corran horn: 1. Bridges channeling the f*ck out of Kris kristofferson 2. This really neat video of Bridges and Colin Farrell filming a scene for the movie....
"Secretary" is just that; it has all the elements of traditional movie romance (they meet, they become attached to each other, he can't come to terms with his feelings, she encounters a rival for her affections, etc.), but it's built around a relationship whose foundation is physical pain. It is a great testament to this film that the majority of an initially hostile audience stuck with...
It's no surprise that Crazy Heart hasn't been on a lot of people's radar. First of all, the title sounds like a tween romcom. But I can get past that. However, it's also about country music. Hey! Come back. I'm...

Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson enjoy themselves mightily in the unpolished black tragicomedy In Bruges. And why shouldn’t they? They play Irish hitmen on the lam in Belgium — and the very notion of such a placid tourist spot as a lam destination is engineered for maximum amusement, at least among European audiences who enjoy a good, dumb Belgian joke.
