Netflix knows where it's at when it comes to the rental biz; more and more, folks want to stay at home and watch movies instantly. We don't even want to wait for those happy little red envelopes any more. Nope, if it's not on our Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, or computer, we get all squirrelly. (Okay, maybe that last part is just me.) And IFC is also on the cutting edge of home entertainment in its steadily...

Actress Rachael Leigh Cook entered the lion’s den in the summer of ‘08 - the Republican National Convention in her home town of Minneapolis. For a dyed in the wool liberal, that took some effort. But she’s a member of the nonpartisan Creative Coalition, and she figured it was only right to visit the RNC after making [...] Related posts: ‘Poliwood’ - Shut up and act? Coming...

The second trailer for Brothers, Jim Sheridan’s remake of Susanne Bier’s Brødre, is a modest improvement over the first, but it still kind of looks like unbearable melodrama. Natalie Portman plays a woman who believes her husband was killed in war. She takes up with brother-in-law Jake Gyllenhaal only to find out her husband Tobey Maguire [...]

We are all amazed and distressed by this odd creature masquerading as a part human/part mystery. We know him as more than the character played by Dustin Hoffman in the exceptional Barry Levinson opus. He is symbolic of the weird science creation we refer to as "idiot savants."

mmmmmANGELINA. Man gelina. I'm so curious to see Salt now that Jolie is staring me down from the poster (she does so more intimidatingly there -- the gaze is more benevolent in real life ) and I'm reminded that Salt was originally written for a male star. Will we see any telltale signs of that gender-switch in the movie? Oh link it, link it real good MovieLine awesome composer Alexandre Desplat doesn't...
