"MARTIN Scorsese is facing the challenge of his career casting an actor to play a young Frank Sinatra in his big-budget biopic about the Chairman of the Board.
But insiders tell us his short list for "Sinatra" is sure to include three-time Oscar nominee Johnny Depp and cocky newcomer James Franco, who both have the swagger -- and cheekbones -- to pull off a reasonable Ol' Blue Eyes. "One issue for Johnny is his age. He's 45. But he's youthful enough to play nearly anybody," a source said. Other names we're hearing include Jake Gyllenhaal, Justin Timberlake, Mark Wahlberg, Michael Bublé and Jon Hamm.And while there's been chatter about Leonardo DiCaprio, who starred in the director's "The Departed" and "The Aviator", a source says it's unlikely, simply because Di- Caprio looks nothing like Sinatra".

Cinema itself is an unstable and seductive marriage of art and commerce, aesthetics and entrepreneurialism. Cannes and Hollywood, though they each claim to represent different outlooks – the former positions itself against the crass globalism of the latter, while the latter derides the elitism of the former – need each other: Hollywood gives Cannes star power and global reach; Cannes gives Hollywood class and an intellectual fillip.
No serious filmmaker would deny its power. Not Quentin Tarantino, whose Pulp Fiction won the Palme d'Or in 1994.

"Stewart, who is dating Michael Angarano, and Robert Pattinson who plays Edward Cullen in the movie series don't pass up too many opportunities to hang out together. Stewart and Pattinson and the whole cast of New Moon spent the evening together at Blue Water Cafe and Raw Bar on May 8. Even though the whole cast was there, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart emanated that special chemistry they're so well known for. "Rob and Kristen took a bunch of cigarette breaks together", said an eyewitness. "They were laughing and telling jokes as they stood with their backs to everyone."
Rob Pattinson, 23, and Kristen Stewart, 19, even left the party together at 3am by limo.The two were photographed with their legs intertwined having a grand old time.
Even though they seem to enjoy each other's time, most insiders don't think the two are involved romantically. Although it would make sense to millions of movie-goers worldwide who enjoyed the chemistry they created by playing Edward Cullen and Bella Swan, they are just friends according to those who should know.
"They're really good friends," Peter Facinelli who plays Dr. Cullen said. "But Kristen has a boyfriend, and Rob knows it and I think he respects that."
But Facinelli understands why people might conclude the duo could be a couple off-screen as well. "Everyone wants them to end up together," he said. "They're Edward and Bella, and their chemistry on the screen is so great. They make it seem like they should be in love forever." Source: www.timesoftheinternet.com

"Taking Woodstock", Lee's Cannes Film Festival entry, presents a loving glimpse of the behind-the-scenes hijinks that resulted in the gloriously sloppy music fest. Woodstock "has a symbolic meaning to me. It's the innocence of a young generation departing from the old establishment and trying to find a more refreshing way, more fair way, to live with everybody else," Lee said Saturday before the Cannes premiere of "Taking Woodstock". "It was dirty, filthy. It was actually a mess," said Lee, a best-director Academy Award winner for "Brokeback Mountain."

Emile Hirsch and his girlfriend Brianna Domont."Taking Woodstock" also features Emile Hirsch, Liev Schreiber, Imelda Staunton and Henry Goodman.
It's Lee's lightest film since the mid-1990s, when he made the romances "Sense and Sensibility," "Eat Drink Man Woman" and "The Wedding Banquet."
The project landed on Lee's desk by chance while he was promoting his last film, the dark World War II-era spy thriller "Lust, Caution." Tiber was the guest following Lee on a San Francisco TV talk show. The two talked a bit and Tiber gave Lee a copy of his book.
"I was yearning to do a comedy-slash-drama again without cynicism," Lee said. "It took me a long way to get there. I thought after 13 years, I sort of earned the right to do it, just be relaxed, be happy and at peace with myself and everybody else." Source: www.huffingtonpost.com

In fact, Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) spends a good chunk of (500) Days of Summer being slowly destroyed by Summer (Zooey Deschanel).

"We have this idea of what love is, and everyone says, "Love has no bounds." And we all subscribe to that idea. And you can read it in cards, you know, like, it's become such a cliché that we don't really believe that, because when it comes really down to "love has no bounds", we don't buy it. We all stay within a form, I'm speaking for myself. I stay within a form of, like, is that OK to do or is that OK to do?" -Jake Gyllenhaal. Source: www.abc.net.au
