This hilarious little video spoofing indie movies (via Cup of Jo) :
This story by Wes Anderson about his trip to visit Roald Dahl's house in preparation for his new film based on the Dahl story "Fantastic Mr. Fox." Here's a somewhat amusing, but kind of embarassing, video of Jason Schwartzman and Wes Anderson hawking for Borders bookstores (there is no Fantastic Mr. Fox stuff out there right now) :
I was very excited to read on Lightning's Girl that a biopic about French crooner/perv Serge Gainsbourg will be released early next year. The production shots look amazing. The actor playing Serge looks perfect and I'm sure it will be a fascinating and sexy look at his life and career.
Also, I think that I need to see this movie at some point:
And, of course, Brüno. I think that Sacha Baron Cohen is brilliant. I remember the first time I watched Ali G (in Glasgow about 8 years ago). I was beside myself. So hilarious and just perfect. When I returned to Vancouver I bid on (and won) bootleg copies of Ali G videos on eBay. That's where I first saw Borat and Brüno. I'm fairly certain that this movie will make me laugh so hard that I cry a little. Just looking at this photo gallery made me hyperventillate a little. It opens in Switzerland on July 22nd. Vass up!?
Finally, the new Almodovar movie "Broken Embraces" looks breathtaking. I never really thought much of Penelope Cruz and then I saw her act in Spanish and in an Almodovar film. The lady is hot. She's charming and beautiful and oozes sex in such an appealing way. Unfortunately when this movie opens I will still be in Geneva and it will be subtitled in French and German, but not English. Until then I will just have to watch the trailer over and over and over again. Sigh.
