Nick and Norah's story

"Caution: there's a way-against-type cameo spoiled in the below trailer for NICK AND NORAH'S INFINITE PLAYLIST. Most of you won't care, but die hard fans of Judd Apatow's television output might want to skip out on the last thirty seconds. If NICK AND NORAH'S INFINITE PLAYLIST ends up working (and it better, since I've been waiting for Peter Sollett's follow-up to RAISING VICTOR VARGAS for six years now), it looks like it'll be due to the chemistry of Michael Cera and Kat Dennings. I guess Dennings is a bit of an x-factor here: I've liked her in stuff prior to this (most notably THE 40-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN), but I don't think I've seen her in a substantial role outside of the kind of awful CHARLIE BARTLETT. Eh, I'm sure she'll be fine.

Other than that, it's kind of odd to see Cera playing a character in a band so close to SCOTT PILGRIM. Good thing he appears to be playing rhythm guitar instead of bass".

In the book it's Nick who asks for Norah to be his five minutes girlfriend to avoid his ex-girlfriend Tris, in the film it's Norah who will ask for Nick to kiss her.

In the novel:

Nick: "She sees me. She can’t fake surprise at seeing me here, because of course she fucking knew I’d be here. So she does a little smile thing and whispers something to the new model and I can tell just from her expression that after they get their now-being-poured drinks they are going to come over and say hello and good show and—could she be so stupid and cruel?—how are you doing? And I can’t stand the thought of it. I see it all unfolding and I know I have to do something—anything—to stop it.

So I, this random bassist in an average queercore band, turn to this girl in flannel who I don’t even know and say:

“I know this is going to sound strange, but would you mind being my girlfriend for the next five minutes?”

"The flick tells the tale of Nick, a high school guitar player who has just been dumped by his girlfriend Tris. At Nick’s band’s show, Tris is there on the arm of a new guy. Norah is also at the show, taking care of a friend. Nick is trying to avoid Tris, as is Norah. The two pretend to be lovers for five minutes to show Tris how not uncool they are, and the story takes off from there.


Set in Manhattan against the whirlwind of the city lights and excitement, Nick and Norah have an unforgettable adventure sure to win over the hearts of audiences everywhere. Much like indie-hit Juno, this film is just as much about music as it is about storyline, featuring great talent such as: Band of Horses, The Ravonettes, Modest Mouse, and Vampire Weekend, amongst others on the soundtrack.

Starring in Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist are Michael Cera (Nick), Kat Dennings (Norah), Alexis Dziena (Tris), and a crew of other up-and-coming young actors. Based on the novel by young adult author extraordinaire Rachel Cohn (Gingerbread, Shrimp, Cupcake) and David Levithan, this story is surely not one to miss". Source: www.filmschoolrejects.com

Anne Hathaway's nude photos

"There are said to be nude photos of Anne Hathaway among the effects seized by the FBI in their raid of her boyfriend’s hidden storage space. Hathaway’s boyfriend of four years, Raffaello Follieri, was arrested late last month on federal charges of money laundering and fraud after an elaborate scheme in which he bilked investors out of millions. He claimed to be the CFO of the Vatican and told investors he could get Catholic land in the US at bargain basement prices. Follieri hired church officials to accompany him to meetings and bribed Vatican employees to help him pull off the scheme. Hathaway broke it off with Follieri after his arrest and he is said to be desperate to try and get back in touch with her.

Hathaway’s effects, including her personal diaries, were among the items confiscated by the FBI in their search for evidence in the case against Follieri. Now it seems that nude photos of the actress taken by her ex were also found. Her brother was seen trying to retrieve items from the storage which the FBI had raided the day before, and it’s possible he was looking specifically for those pictures.
Hathaway appeared topless in Brokeback Mountain, so it’s not like her image will be ruined if these are average nude photos and they get out. Maybe the FBI will keep them safe though and she doesn’t have much to worry about".

"PINEAPPLE EXPRESS TRAILER"



"Lazy stoner Dale Denton has only one reason to visit his equally lazy dealer Saul Silver: to purchase weed, specifically, a rare new strain called Pineapple Express. But when Dale becomes the only witness to a murder by a crooked cop and the city's most dangerous drug lord, he panics and dumps his roach of Pineapple Express at the scene. Dale now has another reason to visit Saul: to find out if the weed is so rare that it can be traced back to him. And it is. As Dale and Saul run for their lives, they quickly discover that they're not suffering from weed-fueled paranoia; incredibly, the bad guys really are hot on their trail and trying to figure out the fastest way to kill them both.
All aboard the Pineapple Express".

Mark Ruffalo - "Delicious"

Mark Ruffalo and Jake at "Zodiac" Cannes Film Festival Premiere.

"Mark Ruffalo will make his feature directing debut on "Sympathy for Delicious."

Ruffalo will star with James Franco and Chris Thornton. Production begins this fall in Los Angeles, and the pic is fully financed by new company Corner Store Entertainment.

Thornton, who wrote the script, plays "Delicious" Dean O'Dwyer, a paralyzed DJ struggling to survive in his wheelchair on the streets of L.A. He turns to faith-healing and mysteriously acquires the ability to cure the sick -- although not himself. Ruffalo plays a Jesuit priest who tries to help him come to terms with the limits of his gift, and Franco a rock singer in a band that exploits the suddenly famous healer.

Pic will be produced by Andrea Sperling, Matthew Weaver, Scott Prissand, Ruffalo and Thornton, with Robert Stein and Joanne Jacobson exec producers.

The film is being financed by Corner Store Entertainment, a venture of Weaver and Prisand, who've quietly financed two other pics over the past several months and raised the coin to bankroll a slate of moderately priced films over the next three years.

Weaver, son of former Paramount marketing exec Gordon Weaver, has credits that include "The Heartbreak Kid" remake, the doc "Surfwise" and "Pretty Persuasion." Prissand has produced several stage musicals, including "Legally Blonde."

Heath Ledger's scholarship

"A scholarship fund benefiting struggling Australian actors has been established in late star Heath Ledger's memory.

Gregor Jordan, who befriended Ledger while directing him in 1999's Two Hands, announced the fund's formation at Thursday night's Australians in Film Breakthrough Awards in Beverly Hills.

Jordan, who also directed Ledger in 2003's Ned Kelly, told guests Ledger's spirit had inspired the foundation, as he was once just "your old, broke Aussie actor" struggling to make a name for himself.

But after earning his first significant paycheque, the Perth, Australia native immediately went "into a bar (to) buy everyone a round of drinks."

The director said, "It is that generosity that somehow sums Heath up. When he had nothing, he still found a way to give to others."

Jordan admitted the details of the scholarship at this point remain "a little sketchy" but did pronounce the first benefactor would be Ledger's former girlfriend, Michelle Williams - the mother of Ledger's two-year-old daughter Matilda Rose.

He added: "It's going to involve a number of benefactors and there's been a lot of interest already.

"I was talking to Michelle Williams, his partner and the mother of his child, today and Michelle has said she would be very proud and happy to be the first benefactor."

A letter written by Ledger's father Kim, who could not attend, was read aloud, stating: "We know that Heath would be proud of his attachment to this scholarship.

"(It) does what Heath has done personally during the last 10 years, (supporting) Australian actors, singers, directors or writers who seek to supply their talents to the U.S.A."

The first scholarship is due to be awarded in 2009".
