“Quantum of Solace” Trailers, Interviews, Featurettes, Synopsis, Photos
Last week you saw a 10 seconds teaser, now here it is – the full teaser trailer for “Quantum of Solace“. Graeat teaser for the upcoming 22nd Bond film, looks even better than “Casino Royale“.
Daniel Craig reprises his role as Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007 in “Quantum of Solace” which continues the high-octane adventures of the British secret agent from “Casino Royale.”
Betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and M (Judi Dench) interrogate Mr. White (Jesper Christensen) who reveals the organization which blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined.
Forensic intelligence links an Mi6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where a case of mistaken identity introduces Bond to the beautiful but feisty Camille (Olga Kurylenko), a woman who has her own vendetta. Camille leads Bond straight to Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a ruthless businessman and major force within the mysterious organization. Continue Reading…
Michael Moore says ‘Fahrenheit 9/11′ follow-up is not a sequel
With his follow-up to “Fahrenheit 9/11,” Michael Moore wants to examine America as an empire, study its standing since the Sept. 11 attacks and present revelations to surprise audiences as much as the first film did.
But he doesn’t want to make a sequel.
“To just say it’s a sequel is so wrong,” Moore told The Associated Press yesterday at the Cannes Film Festival, where he met with potential international distributors for the film, due out in 2009.
The documentary announced this week at Cannes will be a broader chronicle than “Fahrenheit 9/11,” which took President Bush to task over the terrorist attacks and the Iraq war.
“It would be easier and safer to make a sequel, if that’s all it was, but this isn’t about Bush. We all know this. Regardless of who the president is come November, we have a big mess, a big, big mess to be cleaned up, and I don’t know whether it can be cleaned up,” Moore said. “The toxicity of the spill may be so great that there’s nothing we can do about it. If that’s the case, where are we now as America and as Americans?”
“Fahrenheit 9/11″ won the top prize at Cannes in 2004 and went on to top $100 million at the domestic box office, the only documentary to hit that mark.
Moore plans to keep details of the film to himself, saying he regretted talking too early about his health-care documentary “Sicko.” Health insurers were able to mobilize against him, which “made it impossible for me to get in anywhere” for interviews, he said.
The new film, which doesn’t yet have a title, is being financed by Overture Films, which is handling the U.S. release, and Paramount Vantage, which is overseeing international distribution. Continue Reading…

George Clooney Interview
George Clooney talks about the challenges of starring in and directing a broad comedy and confesses that he is unlikely to do that kind of serious double duty again.
Clooney: If I spend time with you there is alcohol involved. I’ll say that right off the bat.
Question: I take it you were influenced by Howard Hawks.
Clooney: I stole from Howard Hawks and Preston Sturges in a big way. I stole a scene. I’m trying to think of who all I stole from. Wait, ‘homage’. I homaged the shit out of Howard Hawks and Preston Sturges. And early George Stevens. There is a film called “The More the Merrier” we were trying to rip off a lot.
Question: When you started scouting locations in North and South Carolina, what led you to use parts of these cities for these films? And could you describe your shoot in North Carolina in general?
Clooney: I never really was in North Carolina. No, it was real fun. The scout was easy because we were looking for a place that would have something of a change of seasons, but not quite the Minnesota change of seasons to shoot the February.
It just didn’t seem fun to us. It didn’t seem that we would catch everything we wanted. We needed some scenes with trees. We knew that digitally we could change the colors from green to orange and red if there leaves on the trees, but that the area would be great for old stadiums which were important to us and also a bit of a change of season.
We ended up getting caught in some pretty cold weather, shockingly, which was unfortunate, but I’m telling you, we loved both the Carolinas. I grew up in Kentucky which we think of as the south, but Carolina’s think of as the Yankees somehow, but I still think of us as the South and I always appreciate — it’s a very different way of life down there.
People have a very easygoing nature with you there and I found it to be every bit the case. You know, we had to use hundreds of hundreds of extras, ah, background artists sorry. It was important that we sort of had an understanding. They are not just people in the background. We actually used them. We used their faces. We had to have – We had long talks together in big groups of people and it was easy to do. They were really open and friendly and fun. I couldn’t tell you what a great time we had.
Matthew Fox: I don’t think I’ll do television again
Matthew Fox talks to BBC Movies about playing a Secret Service agent in ‘Vantage Point‘, working with the Wachowski brothers on Speed Racer and what life might be like after ‘Lost‘.
Did you have any reservations about being in an ensemble cast rather than being the star after a massive TV show like Lost?
No, I don’t ever think about that at all. The role is never the first way into a project for me. It’s always about the whole project, the entirety of the film and its potential. The director is probably the biggest piece of the pie of all the elements that vaguely come together in some way towards you feeling compelled to pursue the project, or accept an offer. Then the role comes after the director sort of says: “This is how I’d like you to serve the story”.
What form did the script take when it was presented to you?
It was one of those reads that was difficult. It was well executed and very original, and has this theme of perspective running though it, which I personally find pretty fascinating. I think about it a lot in my life, just how different things can look to different parties, depending on who they are and where they’re standing and how they want to perceive it. But the actual structure of the script was pretty straight through. It began with the event and then the re-telling of the event through these different perspectives. You also knew that it was the kind of project that post [production] was going to be a very intense experience, because there’s almost an infinite amount of ways that you could end up structuring the film.
I saw the movie about 10 days ago and was really happy with how it all turned out. I think [director] Pete Travis is just a really smart, very dedicated director. I loved the movie he did before, Omagh. I remember the first time meeting him thinking he was just somebody I really wanted to work with and felt that he was going to make a really cool film.
