New affiliate Sarah Roemer

Sarah Roemer in "The Grudge 2" (2006).
"Cult films are generally a hit-or-miss proposition, and the horror genre seems particularly replete with such pictures. One of the better films recently to attain cult status is Donnie Darko. First released without much fanfare in 2001, this film has since amassed a substantial following of truly avid fans.
As an enigmatic hybrid between psychological horror and 1980's John Hughes-style teen angst, Donnie Darko apparently struck a sensitive chord with the disillusioned youth of Generation X, who identified with many of the film's characters, particularly Donnie Darko.As "Unbreakable" was to the super-hero genre, so "Donnie Darko" is to the horror genre, a cerebral portrayal of a spiritual or psychological voyage in face of great adversity. [...]

Summary: With a fine cast, innovative story, and exceptional re-watchability, Donnie Darko is a film well-deserving of its immense cult following. This director's cut of the film is essential viewing for anyone interested in experiencing one of the most unique "horror" films in recent years." Source: DVD Moviecentral.com

Quirky romance

Quirky Girl says: "The bonding session between Drew and Claire over their cell phones is so well written, edited and acted. It'll remind you of that first warm feeling that you get when you are getting close to someone you like" Source: Amazon.com
It's funny how one of the quirky quotes that Claire Colburn (Kirsten's character in "Elizabethtown") said: "Everybody is less mysterious than they think they are" was an habitual motto used by my Literature teacher in high-school.

New "Rendition" stills

Kirsten as film director

"Kristen Dunst puts her acting on the back burner and puts on her director’s cap, directing small crew and actors in Los Feliz on Friday for a “Glamour Reels” short film.

Director Dunst, who was in Studio City, Calif. all day, was given this opportunity by Glamour Magazine, where women who are normally in front of the camera are given the opportunity to direct.

Kiki has mentioned that she wants Michelle Williams (Heath Ledger’s wife) to star in her directorial debut: “Michelle Williams is a friend of mine and we did a movie together when we were younger and so I want her to be my star. She said she would, but now it’s all about dates.”This follows Jennifer Aniston’s short film "Room 10" for Glamour Magazine.Later in the day, Kiki headed for the veterinarian (flashing her navel on the way) to pick up her beloved pet cat."
