Lionsgate have acquired the US distribution rights to FilmNation’s All is Lost at the European Film Market in Berlin. Set to be directed by J.C. Chandor (Margin Call), All is Lost is the exhilarating journey of one man’s fight to survive after being lost at see. Robert Redford (Lions for Lambs) is attached to play the lead [...]
All through the marketing campaign for this film I kept my mind open and hopes relatively high. Catherine Hardwicke scolded those who noted the film’s apparent similarities to Twilight, something the trailers and posters played very heavily on, and yet I knew this was a sure fire way of getting people into the cinemas in [...]
To mark the release of digitally restored Don’t Look now on Blu-ray 27th June, Optimum Releasing have given us three copies of the movie to give away. Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie star in DON’T LOOK NOW, Nic Roeg’s brilliantly atmospheric adaptation of the novel by Daphne du Maurier. Following the death of their daughter, [...]
Red Riding Hood is coming out at the end of this week, and HeyUGuys recently caught up with the film’s star, Amanda Seyfried to talk about her experience making the film. During the course of the interview she spoke about the script, her casting, working with Catherine Hardwicke, and how strange it was for her [...]
There is, I am sure, an audience for Red Riding Hood. My best guess is that it is made up of the same hormonal teenage girls, and depressed, middle aged women who are responsible for the Twilight franchise taking nearly two billion dollars at the box office. If you recognise yourself in this description, you [...]
To celebrate the release of Red Riding Hood in cinemas on April 15, we are offering one lucky reader the chance to win a Red Riding Hood cape and goody bag. Four runners up will also receive a goody bag! Synopsis: Valerie (Amanda Seyfried) is a beautiful young woman torn between two men. She is [...]
It’s hard to know exactly where Catherine Hardwicke is pitching her telling of the Red Riding Hood fairy tale. The spectre of Twilight hovers over the trailers and posters and is an easy target, but if you’re selling your ‘twisted’ fairy tale to an audience it makes sense to play on the similarities. I still [...]
This is the one you Red Riding Hood marketing completists have been waiting for – Russia’s own poster for the Catherine Hardwicke film. We are so good to you. Amanda Seyfried leads the Hardwicke film and stars alongside with Virginia Madsen, Billy Burke, Julie Christie, Shiloh Fernandez, Gary Oldman, Michael Shanks and Luke Haas – personally [...]
Getting in ahead of the numerous fairy tale inspired films coming our way is Catherine Hardwicke’s Red Riding Hood, and if the previous clips, trailers and assorted imagery haven’t convinced you then why not take some time with these new offerings? Amanda Seyfried looks more than a little unhinged in this new Spanish poster, though [...]
Warner Bros. Pictures, have released a brand new Red Riding Hood trailer, a re-imagining of the folk tale Little Red Riding Hood. Red Riding Hood is directed by Catherine Hardwicke (Twilight) and stars Amanda Seyfried, Virginia Madsen, Lukas Haas, Billy Burke, Julie Christie, Gary Oldman, Michael Shanks, Max Irons and Shiloh Fernandez. Valerie (Seyfried) is [...]
Another poster has been unveiled for Catherine Hardwicke’s Red Riding Hood. A recent trailer played up the romantic elements and while the Twilight connection of Hardwicke are being promoted to sell the film I’m hoping there’s more to this film then meets the eye. According to this new poster Red Riding Hood is a breathtaking [...]
More images spill forth from Catherine Hardwicke’s telling of Red Riding Hood, and our heroine, played by Amanda Seyfried, is both front and centre. A few weeks ago we enjoyed the first trailer for the film and while these new images don’t offer much more of an insight we do know that there’s some kissing [...]
These pictures from Catherine Hardwicke’s retelling of the enduring tale of Red Riding Hood aren’t new, but neither are they scanned from the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, so you can enjoy them in a decent resolution now. The trailer and poster were released recently and there is something striking about the vivid red of [...]
Barely a few days after we had our first glimpse of Amanda Seyfried in the title role of Catherine Hardwicke’s take on the story of Red Riding Hood we are graced with the presence of the first trailer and poster to emerge. It’s not exactly what I expected, although Gary Oldman looks the spirit of [...]
In their latest issue, Entertainment Weekly have scored the first two official stills from Dark Castle Entertainment’s Red Riding Hood. Directed by Catherine Hardwicke (Twilight), from a script by David Johnson (Orphan), Red Riding Hood stars Amanda Seyfried, Virginia Madsen, Billy Burke, Julie Christie, Shiloh Fernandez, Gary Oldman, Michael Shanks and Luke Haas. Set in a [...]
Having directed Thirteen, Lords of Dogtown and then the first installment of the Twilight franchise, Catherine Hardwicke then signed on for an adaptation of Red Riding Hood. We reported here that Amanda Seyfried was to play Red Riding Hood herself and now Accidental Sexiness have put up a whole bunch of on-set stills, showing the [...]
Stephen Poliakoff’s dark, labyrinthine account of England’s tumble into the Second World War was premiered at the London Film Festival this year and we were impressed by it. As today sees the film’s release I wanted to take another look at this drama, to see if it lives up to its name. Glorious 39 is [...]
Glorious 39 marks acclaimed filmmaker Stephen Poliakoff’s return to the big screen after twelve long years and it is an epic triumph of ambition and craft, delivering a superb and engaging thriller of duplicity and deceit on the eve of World War II. Threatened by the impending ‘little war’ the aristocracy, fearing their way of [...]
