BBFC Release more information on why A SERBIAN FILM was classified

source Blogomatic3000
Friday 10th December Srdjan Spasojevic’s highly controversial A SERBIAN FILM gets a limited UK cinematic release. I cant comment on how bad/sickening the movie maybe but can only go with whats been said in the media but what gets me is that Westminsiter City Council (London) or for that fact British Governent probably knew already the media attention the movie was getting before it was due to be shown at Frightfest 2010, basically givien the movie more media attention encouraging curious movie fans to check the movie out 'illegally' online in its full. If a movie is controverisal for various reasons people should be able to judge how bad it is in its full instead of someone else been the moral highground. We can guess it is bad but like any movie it gets watched by the bbfc before been classified, but what I ask is when a movie is heavily cut are those parts been cut integeral  to the movie are they vital scenes?
On there Website BBFC have released more information on their classification for A SERBIAN FILM and be warned if your going to see the movie the information below does contain spoilers, check the classification and uk trailer for the movie after the break....

Trailer For Steven Soderbergh's AND EVERYTHINGS GOING FINE Documentary on Spalding Gray

source Apple
IFC Films have debuted online the trailer for the Steven Soderbergh documentary AND EVERYTHINGS GOING FINE a movie focused on the actor Spalding Gray who died in 2004. To be honest I dont really know much about the man apart from his part in The Killing Fields, obvivously Soderbergh who is a character driven filmmaker did see alot in Spaldings life and he beleved his story must be told and the movie is his outcome.
The Doc consists mostly of recorded footage & interviews of Gray compiled into to making the movie which had already played the likes of Edinburgh & Sxsw festivals to positive reviews. The movie is due a cinematic release in USA on 10th December as for UK no date has been confirmed.

Synopsis

AND EVERYTHING IS GOING FINE, an incisive and entertaining portrait of Spalding Gray by director Steven Soderbergh provides an intimate look at the master monologist as described by his most critical, irreverent and insightful biographer: Spalding Gray. Soderbergh distills 25 years of rare and revealing footage to construct a riveting final monologue. An official selection of the SXSW, True/False and Edinburgh film festivals, this inspired one-man show is a bittersweet display of the writer-performer's playful and embattled intelligence, and his gift for tracking universal truths by looking himself squarely in the eye.

Madrid is under attack! from Pablo Olmos Arrayales on Vimeo.

SourceQuietEarth
With he recent release of Skyline, Monsters plus next March's World Invasion:Battle Los Angeles on the cards it seems that Alien Invasion movies are the 'in-genre' at the moment. You could search the world including our own backyard and you'll find similar movies poping up everywhere and ALONE(Solos) is Spain's addition to the genre.
Directed by Mexican Pablo Olmos Arrayales who now lives in Spain and Alone will be his feature debut after a sucessfull award winning few years directing Short films. Well a little confession this trailer is actually for a movie not been made yet but it does look fantastic and looking at the source post they does say the filmmaker is working on the script for itand expect the movie in the next year or two. If this is to help prmote his idea to potential studios I dont think he has much to worry about!

Its Daddy Cool Teaser trailer For French Canadian movie FUNKYTOWN

source Twitch
I dont mind dance themed movies that have some sort of story behind other than dance, films like step up which are pure dance movies and tough they performers are very talented they dont just interest me especially when your bombarded on tv with programmes like Britian's got talent your bombarded every minute of theday. So FUNKYTOWN is a movie set in 1976 Montreal when punk and disco where the music to listen to but disco was the more popular mainstream choice when studio 54 inspired clubs ruled the roost along with sexual freedom. The movie is based around the  Limelife Discotheque where if your into disco and you wanted to mingle with the celebs this was the place to go.
The movie is very dark, sexy and for adults as well those who love Saturday Night Fever as this seems to mold into a similar style movie and they do it well. The movie is in French and directed by  Daniel Roby and stars

Patrick Huard, Paul Doucet, Raymond Bouchard, Sarah Mutch, Justin Chatwin, Geneviève Brouillette and François Létourneau.


Funkytown is set for a 2011 release, check the first teaser trailer after the break,...

Sundance Doc CATFISH facing Possible Lawsuit

source IFC
December 17th Sundance most talked about Documentary CATFISH hits the UK/Irish cinemasbut now it from US that the movie possibly may not all its seems to be and faces a possible lawsuit.Since the movie premiered at Sundance 2010 it has been musch talked about, critics giving it rave review but now Hollywood Reporter is reporting that the movie is more fictional rather than non-fictional and alot of the movie is staged and acting.
Catfish is a documentary created by  Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman with the movi focusing on Schulman's brother Nev and his facebook/internet relaionship with a girl from Mid western USA and what they find when they visit the girl, is well... shocking. But who is suing the filmmakers and distributors Universal Pictures & Relativity Media? Its Threshold Media who own the rights to a song used by  Amy Kuney, who is protesting the movie's use of her song "All Downhill From Here," which Nev's online girlfriend passess of as her own song, Eriq Gardner of THR says:

For some time now, Threshold has been attempting to get filmmakers to pay licensing fees for the song. According to the new copyright infringement lawsuit, the producers have rejected doing so. According to Threshold's LA lawyer, Neville Johnson, the producers claimed that since the song was part of a real-life documentary, it was a "fair use" of the copyright.

But what if those were staged scenes - and filmmakers knowingly exploited a copyrighted song? Wouldn't the "fair use" defense crumble?

Since the documentary was picked up the marketing was good in the sense t was only spoon feeding you enough footae to make you go to check the movie out due to its cliffhangar, but if things go Threshold Media way  the truth of this documentary (or will it be mockamentary) may now come out and actually could question what could you consider to be documentary and whats not.

Anyone that knows me I love my zombie flicks and im not affraid to say Zack Snyder's Dawn Of The Dead is one of my all time favs (up there with the original of course!). The movie & tv world seems to be dominated by vampire movies/series which now are getting a little bored but as i said cant beat something from the undead and with The Walking Dead doing the rounds on tv, its time to see some more flesheater on our screen.
DEADHEADS is from the mins of the Pierce brothers (Brett and Drew) and its a zombie buddy  comedy movie which actually look really good and its a shame i wont probably see it unless the movie get some sort of release in uk (more likely dvd). People will say zombies ... boring!!! Think again  with this one  its different its a road movie which has two zombies during a zombie epidemic looking for lost love whilst been tracked by agents with different agenda than theres!!! Good to be different, zombie with some brain cells functioning.
