As you can see, we have a new theme here. As much I loved the previous one, it was time to change. And I was looking for something more specific, easy to browse and good to the eyes .
Since the site is full powered by Wordpress, nothing better that having a good theme, with all options in hands. I hope you like it.

More updates are coming, specially to the site. I’m sorting some new pictures I found to add to the gallery, as so new screencaptures. Stay tuned!

Added “The Private Lives of Pippa Lee” trailer to download in our video gallery, also screencaptures of it.

I’m so excited to see this movie, even if Winona do a small part in it. Are you feeling the same?

My initial disappointment about missing out on the Berlin Film Festival has certainly been helped by the repeated suggestion that almost everything showing there sucks.

But there was one film for which I had placed my selfish travel wants aside and hoped would be great anyway. The Private Lives of Pippa Lee features the first role with any real potential my beloved Winona Ryder had been given in almost a decade (sure, there was A Scanner Darkly, but she was animated and all so it doesnt 100% count, and while The Ten was fun, it certainly wasn’t up to par with my Winonaspectations).

Sundance after Sundance, we’ve watched every single movie she makes crash, burn and fail to get distribution (The Darwin Awards, The Last Word, The Informers), or just seen films shes made fail to get seen by anyone at all (Sex and Death 101, Water Pills), and probably with good reason.

But when I heard of her casting in Pippa, alongside Julianne Moore, Maria Bello and Robin Wright Penn, among others, my heart skipped: “She’s coming back! After basically wasting the entire ‘00s, probably because any decent film wouldn’t risk insuring her crazy ass, someone was taking a chance on her, and she was going to hit it out of the ballpark and return to form!” (more…)

A grown-up love story that’s rambling, quirky and sharp-eyed about mid-life doldrums, Rebecca Miller’s cinematic adaptation of her own novel works largely because it doesn’t take itself too seriously. An across-the-board solid cast backs up Robin Wright Penn’s enjoyable central performance which, like much of the film, is believable without being entirely naturalistic. Still, this is not a sure-fire commercial prospect even on the independent circuit. It comes on like a woman’s take on a Philip Roth novel (except with a sense of humour), and despite its oddball tone and upbeat ending could end up placing in the same $5 million region as Roth adaptations like Elegy or The Human Stain in the US. It may have better luck in urban markets abroad, especially in Europe (more…)

Searching around about pictures of this film, I found the new poster of “The Private Lives of Pippa Lee”, and loved! It bring us with all actors, including Winona,

It’s the official poster? It looks great!
