After several sucessfull short movies Justin Lerner transides into festure lenth movies and GIRLFRIEND is his first venture and he has a perfect place to premiere the movie at next weeks Toronto Film Festival.
The movie is about Evan a down syndrome man comes into some money and decide to persue his dream his old school love Candy (Shannon Woodward). Candy is a pretty girl but she does lead a troubled life , big in debt and a single mother and on the verge of been evicted Evan rescues her and Candy feels she must repay in kindness but throw in the ex-boyfriend Twilights Jackson Rathbone and a triangle develops between the three.
Automatically you think its one of those afternoon melodramas you get every day on channel 5, well it is a melodrama but Lerner takes his tv style movie to something worth checking out.

A New trailer & images for John Syales AMIGO have appeared online thanks to Ropes of Silcon(trailer) and TIFF (Images).
The movie is an fictionalised account of the Philippine-American War which took place at the turn of 19th-20th century and even then they where causing atrocities around the world (wonder if George Bush’s ancestors where involved?), the war lead to the slow process of Philippines gaining there Independence.
Apparently this movie has grown out of a book ‘Sometime in the sun’ which never got published which originally started as a screenplay and now we have a film which is set for some sort of release in 2011 but you can see it at next months Toronto Film Festival.

Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen has a third trailer just before its release in Hong Kong/China on September 23rd along with its premiere at Toronto Film Festival.
Donnie Yen plays the  iconic culture hero Chen Zhen and if your a fan of Chinese martial arts films you know Yen's the man when it comes to these types of movies. Bodies hit the floor when this one man wrecking machine is on the prowl and everything he does utter cool, missing Bruce Lee check out Donnie Yen but Im sure you already be doing that anyway?

tiff 2010: No Sonic Screwdriver’s here,Offical Trailer For WOMB

No comments:












 source ThePeoplesmovies
The Playlist have posted online the trailer for the Benedek Fliegauf‘s indie drama WOMB. The movie stars Eva Green, the new Doctor Who Matt Smith , Lesley Manville, Peter Wright and Hannah Murray.
Rebecca (Green) has waited 12 long years to be with her childhood sweetheart again but only to loose him to an accident but now she can bring him back from the dead. The movie isn’t about a woman who can practice voodoo but the controversial look at cloning  and in this case human cloning and the ethical issues the cloning is raised.
The movie has a  mostly British cast with an Germany/Hungary/France produced movie which has been well put together highlighting the acting abilities of the movies main characters, I’m not Matt Smith’s biggest fan on the Doctor who side of things but outside the tardisI actually dont mind him as a actor. The movie does have a gentle charm to it but you do get the sense underneath the dark undertones of the movies subject matter.
Womb has just got itself a US distributor Olive Films so do expect somelimited release of the movie as for UK or Ireland no word yet but the next time the movie will be on a big screen will be next months Toronto Film Festival.

If it wasnt for the internet I wouldn't be here! Its a wonderful play you be educated with, entertained with but theres the darkside of the internet that makes you wish the thing was never invented. Barbara Wong shows us a way to abuse with her new movie THE BREAK UP CLUB.
The movie is about Joe a young guy who is devasted his girlfriend Flora has split up with him and Joe decides to join 'The Break up Club' to get over his heartache. By joining the club they say he'll be able to get back with Flora if he can break up another couple and his friend is who he braks up and Flora is back with him, then she breaks up again, comes back and off again. Its one hell of a emotional rollercoaster for Joe and whilst he does this he talks to a director (wong playing herself) about the club!
Despite the movie playing a little like a documentary it is actually a drama with some comedy and of course romance thrown in too! The movie was released in Hong Kong back in June so now its doing the rounds of the film festivals and the next port of call for the movie is Toronto in September, trailer after the break...

Have you just been dumped? What if there was a website that could get your loved one back? There is ! It is called BreakUpClub.asia. All you have to do is break up another couple that are happily in love. Just fill in their names and voila! Would you do it? Our hero Joe is at the computer, about to press ENTER...

There's something of a charming feel about this movie despite been set in a backdrop of an steel works, I love the music too that gives the movie a real European edge even eastern european or even Juenet feel as the movies characters seem eccentric but also very likeable. Below after the break is a lengthy promo reel for Chinese filmmaker Zhang Meng's A PIANO IN A FACTORY.When you look at the setting of this movie it could really be anywhere as the world's industry is in decline and towns globally once thriving industrial centre are nothing more than a crumbling ghost town.
This movie will be playing at next month's Toronto Film Festival and you can check the promo reel and synopsis after the break....

TIFF 2010:Trailer For Koen Mortier's 22ND OF MAY

No comments:
sourceTwitch
Koen Mortier made a name for himself with his debut movie EX-Drummer a movie about disabled guys creating a  rockband who hire a local writer to play drums and all there new drummer can do is manipulate them. The movie gots a massive cult following worldwide and rightly so and now the Belgium director is back with a more shattering  movie 22 MAI (may) which is due to have its world premiere at the Toronto Film Festival.
The movie centre's arounda security guard called sam who is a guard at a small shopping mall that becomes a victim of a terrorist explosion, its a more somber affair than Mortier's previous movie and I really love the slow motion of the trailer as when life changing events happen they happen fast and reality doesn't sink in but if slow things down you start to get a feel of whats just happened! Check out the first trailer after the break...

... While everything around him is burning, Sam tries his best to help. He drags a woman outside against her will. She is screaming, struggling to get back inside to save her child. But Sam is already back on the scene, trying to rescue other victims, all of them just as helpless as he is. They are strewn over the floor, covered in blood, their clothes shredded to pieces, feeling utterly lost. As their cries turn into screams, Sam is overpowered by fear and panic. First there was the shock, then the realization of what happened. Without thinking, he starts to run, turning his back to the apocalyptic scene. He flees, running along the streets of a city that once felt as familiar as a friend, but now seems more like a dark monster ...

If Bill&Ted was mashed up with Beavis and Butthead, what would the final result be? You would get Terry and Deaner aka FUBAR II!!The Canadian Cult flick is back for another dose of heavy metal madness from its two douche bags Terry & Deaner who are no-brainers, more interested in drink beer listening to metal music, having trash eviction parties, driving cars down snowbanks, the more insane you think the more likely these guys.
Beer, beer,beer,beer,more beer,beer,girls,beer,beer, beer, beer, girls, beers,rock music,beer, beer, girls, and did I mention Beer?
Honestly I didnt know much about this apart from its a cult hit in north America and the movie is due to have its debut at Toronto Film Festival before its release in Canada cinematically on October 1st.

TIFF 2010: Trailer For Kat Dennings in DAYDREAM NATION

No comments:
sourceThePeoplesMovies
DAYDREAM NATION could be one of the movie you may want to check out if your heading to next month’s Toronto film festival where it’ll make its premiere. The movie is written & directed by Michael Goldblach starring Kat Dennings, Josh Lucas, Reece Thompson, Andie MacDowell and Natasha Calis.

The movie is about a teenage girl (Dennings) moves to a rural town (currently been plagued by a serial killer) where she has an affair with a teacher (Lucas).I dont if the killer is just a spin off/ background story or the affair will get entangled into the killers path who knows interesting twist.

Apart from the movie going to be at TIFF 2010 there is no word yet as and when this flick will be released apart from it been 2011. I wonder if this will be one of those flicks that does the rounds of the festival, you then completely forget about and bang it appears a year or two later, mm? trailer after break...

TIFF 2010: Trailer For THAT GIRL IN YELLOW BOOTS

No comments:

Below is the trailer for Anurag Kashyap’s latestmovie THAT GIRL IN YELLOW BOOTS.Im sure many non-indian movies fans when you think of India you'll automatically think this is a Bollywood movie and will be full of big majestic song & dance number, think again.
This movie is an thriller about a young girl who searches  for her father but then finds herself working in a massage parlour. This is not your average Indian movie and Kashyap is not scared to delve into controversy with diving deep into the dark underbelly of Indian society and I'm sure this will have a few of India's version's of Mary Whitehouse standing on their high moral grounds wanting this movie scrapped.
Well if there is a ruckus in Indian media the international media are more curious that movie is to play this years Toronto Film Festival and Venice Film festival too!
The trailer is a slow burner but then picks up some momentum, trailer after the break....
