AMCtv has a exclusive clip of Stay Cool, in their Tribeca special page. It shows a 2 minutes scene with Winona and Mark in a restaurant. I added a few captures and will upload the video to download. For now, just see the video below. Thanks, as always, Chris B for the heads up.

EW.com has two reporters covering the Tribeca Film Festival in New York, and today they start to share what they’ve seen.

ADAM MARKOVITZ: I haven’t made it to as many screenings as you have, but I did catch the world premiere of Stay Cool, the new back-to-high-school movie from the Polish brothers (The Astronaut Farmer). Mark Polish was the lead, but the supporting cast — Sean Astin and Josh Holloway as goofy buds, Hilary Duff as a teen queen — definitely stole the show. And best of all was Winona Ryder, who skipped the premiere but was still the movie’s MVP for bringing loads of charisma to her role as a high-school dream girl who’s all grown up. And speaking of premieres, I’m off to see the debut of the Matthew Broderick drama Wonderful World. I’ll let you know how it goes!

Hollyscoop: Yes! Director Michael Polish said he “definitely stalked” Winona Ryder, but he says, “I don’t think it’s stalking if you’re making movies. I would not do anything to scare her.”

Michael spoke exclusively with Hollyscoop. com at The Tribeca Film Festival where his latest film Staying Cool premiered over the weekend. He said when he and his brother Mark Polish wrote the movie they “pinpointed Winona for it.”

“We wanted her because she is the icon for us from the 80s. She is the same age as us. She is the girlfriend,” Michael told Hollyscoop exclusively. “We knew we had friends in common, make up artists and costume designers, and I knew she liked Twin Falls Idaho so we sent her the script.”

Jokingly, Michael said that he then “stood outside her door for four days.” Though, he did go to an extreme measure. He asked Winona “you want to watch Some Kind of Wonderful with me” and then they “watched it four times in her house.”

Four times ? Now that does sound a little stalker crazy but Michael explains, “It’s a great high school movie about a love triangle. We talked about the characters in the movie, but I think she had made up her mind already (about being in the movie) or I would not be in her house.”

Wow! That is an interesting way to cast a film, but it seems appropriate since Staying Cool is about a successful author, played by Mark Polish, who faces his high school crush when he returns to make a speech at his Alma Mater. The film also stars Hilary Duff, Sean Astin, and Chevy Chase.

TrekMovie has posted about some Star Trek deleted scenes. Unfortunallly, there’s one with Winona:

Some of the Kirk and Spock back-story
The new Star Trek is an ‘origin story’ with the primary focus on Kirk and Spock. Both have scenes from their childhoods which ended up in the final film, but some still ended up cut. However, even though they aren’t in the film, some of this footage has been used in trailers and TV commercials, notably a scene at Spock’s birth.

DELETED: Scene with Amanda (Winona Ryder) and Sarek (Been Cross) holding baby Spock

I hope we’ll can see this scene on DVD. :(

Finally I was able to cap “The Last Word”. The movie was released in Blu-Ray last April 7th (sadly I couldn’t find it here in Brazil yet).

Plot: A reclusive writer played by Bentley makes his living composing other people’s suicide notes. His life gets turned upside down after he embarks on a tumultuous romance with Ryder, the sister of a recently deceased client.

If you didn’t saw the movie yet, DO IT! Winona is incredible beauty, and with a strong performance in the movie.

The official website for “The Informers” is up!

You can see a full scene with Winona, nothing different than official trailer, also she has her own part on the cast biography.
The movie opens in April 24th!

Also, there’s a short in MTV Movies blog with the Informers’ autor talking about the final result of the movie. Here’s an excerpt:

Ask acclaimed novelist Bret Easton Ellis what “The Informers” is about, and you get nearly a minute of silences, false starts, and heavy exhaling.

“Um…A week in the lives of a group of people in Los Angeles in 1983, focusing mainly on…I guess, a trio of guys…” he eventually attempts, before scampering for a copy of the 1994 novel that serves as the basis for the new film. “Um…I’ve got a paperback of the book here. What does this say? No, that’s not a good synopsis either.”

Water Pills, Blake Soper’s short film made last year with Winona Ryder starring, has won a grand jury best performance award for Jasmine Jessica Anthony at the 18th annual Florida Film Festival.

The film was screened at the festival on April 1 and the awards were presented on Saturday. [Source]

Congratulations to Winona, Blake and all cast and crew!

TheMovieBox has a new TV Spot online. You can watch it here. There’s no new scene on Winona, but you can check the baby Spock (probably in Amanda’s arms). Cute ears!

Director JJ Abrams’ new Star Trek movie will have its world premiere at the Sydney Opera House next month, presented by Aussie star Eric Bana. Abrams, Bana and co-stars Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto and Karl Urban will present the blockbuster to 1600 tastemakers in art, design, entertainment, fashion, media and politics on April 7.

“Not only are we honoured to have JJ Abrams and the cast here in Sydney for the world premiere of the stunning new Star Trek, we are also very excited to present this event at one of Australia’s – and the world’s – most famous locations, Sydney Opera House,” said Mike Selwyn, managing director of Paramount Pictures Australia.
