There are few directors still plying their trade today who can rival Martin Scorsese when it comes to the quality and variety of their filmography. The native New Yorker has frequently created brutal and violent stories featuring deeply flawed and morally questionable protagonists, covering such sombre subjects as guilt, greed, machismo and mental instability along [...]
First of all, let’s debunk the myth that Oscar always gets it wrong. Of course there are wild differences of opinion out there over what is the Best Film™ of any given year. Plenty of people (though not me) think The Hurt Locker was wildly over-rated and something else (Avatar – really?) should have won. [...]
Martin Scorsese’s return behind the camera with The Wolf of Wall Street has naturally been one of the most anticipated of the films going into production this year. Leonardo DiCaprio reteams with Scorsese once more at the head of an all-star cast, and now Deadline report that Paramount Pictures have closed a deal for the [...]
Robert De Niro’s resume scans as well as anyones, it would be fatuous in the extreme to try to make some sort of finest actor of his generation/all time/New Hollywood/zip code claim, so let’s just keep it simple. In his back catalogue are some of the finest acting performances ever put on screen and considering [...]
Seth MacFarlane’s “Ted” is doing excellently and deservedly solid business on both sides of the pond this month, with its Boston-set tale of a soft, cuddly and very rude bear and his impact on Mark Wahlberg’s attempts to behave like a grown up in his relationship with long-term girlfriend Mila Kunis. Why Boston-set? Well presumably [...]
Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street is quickly shaping up to be one of the most promising films in recent memory. Leonardo DiCaprio is already at the head of the incredibly impressive cast, and now Jon Favreau has been cast as a securities lawyer in the drama, in which he’ll star alongside Jonah Hill (Moneyball), [...]
In the past, the directorial debuts of Hollywood A-listers have traditionally served as an opportunity to make character-driven films which are more intimate in nature and scope (Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Ordinary People, Little Man Tate). Even Mel Gibson scaled it back to make the thoughtful and moving The Man Without A Face before [...]
Coming off an Oscar-winning performance in last year’s The Artist, Jean Dujardin is now in talks to join what is quickly shaping up to be one of the most anticipated films of 2013. Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street already has Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill, and Kyle Chandler attached, and now Variety reports that [...]
With its release coming in just over a week, we’re looking at the final stretch of General Aladeen’s shenanigans before The Dictator hits the big screen next week. We’ve seen some brilliant things over the past few months – both footage from the film and Sacha Baron Cohen’s promotion of it in real life – [...]
Two stories in one tonight, both centered around Jonah HIll, an actor whose Oscar nominated turn in Moneyball is clearly a sign of things to come as he is signed up to play a supporting role in Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street. According to THR Hill will play opposite Leonardo DiCaprio’s Jordan Belfort [...]
A survey was conducted recently by Bombay Sapphire with the aim of adding to the ongoing debate of originality and imagination in cinema and the results, though not surprising, appeared to point to a contradiction in how those terms can be applied in getting quality films out to their audience. The results from the research [...]
In celebration of the weekend’s Academy Awards, brilliant US stand-up comedian Jimmy Kimmel put together an excellent nine-minute ‘trailer’ for Movie: The Movie, an epic film-that-won’t-be-filmed in which we see essentially every actor and actress known to man in a set of terrific skits. With a genre self-described as ‘a romantically comic political action thriller [...]
BAFTA have just released this rather nice photo of all the people who won an award at the 2012 BAFTA Film Awards which took place last night and it’s rather nice I have to say. The shot was taken on the stage after the event and includes among many, Adam Deacon who won the Orange [...]
Even in the dramatic rise of American television there are some standout examples of the very highest quality, when we see the particular alignment of a strong and creative producer, an actor perfect for the leading role and the creation of a seductive and intriguing world. Boardwalk Empire is one such show, and one of [...]
The first season of HBO’s epic prohibition drama is coming to Blu-ray and DVD on January 9th, and we have three DVD boxsets to give away. Executively produced by Oscar®-winning director Martin Scorsese and from the pen of The Sopranos scribe Terence Winter, BOARDWALK EMPIRE: The Complete First Season received 18 Emmy® Award nominations, winning [...]
We’ve been given this fantastic featurette called ‘Designing and Empire’ from the awesome TV series that is HBO’s Boardwalk Empire. I look forward to watching it every week and it is definitely one of my favourite shows of 2011 (along with A Game of Thrones!) This featurette has interviews with Production Designer Bob Shaw and [...]
Pinewood Studios have just put up this fabulous featurette focusing on Hugo and the filming which took place at Shepperton and Pinewood Studios right here in the UK. In the feauturette which looks specifically at the studios used for filming, we also hear from Graham King who talks about Director Martin Scorsese and the ‘magician’ [...]
For a director as venerable as Martin Scorsese, arguably the greatest living filmmaker, pinpointing one of his cinematic masterpieces as his best will always be essentially impossible. Having covered such a wide range of genres over his career, there will never be a definitive consensus, however his 1990 film GoodFellas presents possibly the most compelling [...]
Martin Scorsese’s adaptation of The Invention of Hugo Cabret has been almost* univerally adored by critics across the world and while a lot of attention is being paid to the director’s first use of 3D there’s a more practical magic on display in the film. This short video gives an excellent peek behind the movie [...]
It’s been a long time since we threw our collective voices into the podcasting arena but the Mouth Off Podcast is back with a revised format, some very special guests and an excellent film to get us back on track as we talk about Martin Scorsese’s forthcoming 3D extravanganza Hugo. We are joined by Cassam [...]
