I was never a huge fan of any of the Godfather movies until I watched the entire trilogy over the period of a week. ( The Godfather - Part III is the dud of the series, infamously diminished by the casting of Sofia Coppola as Michael Corleone’s daughter. She can’t act. That’s not t...

As if we ever bring you anything but highly revealing interviews here on BlogTalkRadio. So there’s little need for hype this week – saying things like “You can’t afford not to tune in,� “You’ll be astounded by what you hear� or “If you don’t tune in, you won’t know about the $1...

I scanned this Variety article in vain, looking for some mention that Cecil B. DeMille had arisen from the grave purely to revive bombastic Biblical epics. But no. Nor is it April 1, so this has to be legitimate, as unlikely as it seems. Apparently, Aloe Films is producing a film called Mary, Mother...

When you're an actress dating a famously purity-ring-clad pop singer, how can you out-chastity him? If you're Camilla Belle, and your beau is Joe Jonas (of the Jonas Brothers, squeeeee!1!!), you go to great lengths.

Devil you know..." title="The Devil you know..." / It's 2 AM and you awake with a jerk, alone in your fully-lit apartment and still on the couch. On TV, the credits of some movie you've already seen a billion times are scrolling by. It feels like rock bottom. And we know, because we're just like you...

While we've already long forgotten Righteous Kill—and the onerous sins of its one-sheet—England is only now becoming acquainted with its Pacino/DeNiro double-bed-shitting pleasures. It can't even seem to get an in-your-face tagline right. From BBC: The poster for Righteous Kill was displ...

Yes, Jack Nicholson showed up after the Laker game, slightly hoarse, to honor his bud, Warren Beatty, at the 36th annual AFI Life Achievement fete.
