Posted by Fiona 27 May, 2008 (1) Comment

Nailed‘, directed by David O. Russell and starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Jessica Biel, Catherine Keener and James Marsden revolves around a waitress who becomes wildly unpredictable after being shot in the head with a nail. She heads to Washington to fight for the rights of people with similar bizarre injuries.

Jake Gyllenhaal
Capitol Films failed to deposit enough money into SAG (Screen Actors Guild) accounts to pay the cast. Six days later, IATSE members stopped filming for a second time after not getting paid.

David Bergstein, head of Capitol Films, had previously stated that the company was financially secure despite rumours of unpaid bills and lawsuits.

This political indie comedy has been shut down for a third time due to financial problems, Variety reports.

‘What Just Happened?’ - 2 Clips - Cannes 2008

Posted by Fiona 23 May, 2008 (0) Comment

What Just Happened?”, Barry Levinson’s tale of an embattled Hollywood producer, will be the
Cannes Film Festival’s closing night attraction.

Robert De Niro
The movie, written by Art Linson and based on his memoir about his experiences as a producer, stars Robert De Niro as Ben, whose professional and personal life comes undone during one turbulent week.

In What Just Happened?, De Niro plays a quality producer in crisis mode, handling temperamental co-workers (including Bruce Willis as himself) and demanding higher-ups (including Catherine Keener as a studio boss) while struggling to make sense of his personal life. Robin Wright Penn plays his most recent ex-wife, Sean Penn plays the star of a movie-within-the-movie.

The idea that the movie is too “inside” amuses Levinson.

The film generated strong buzz coming in to January’s Sundance Film Festival but the movie received a mixed critical response and failed to catch fire with distributors, and its rights remain available.

“What I’ve heard is that some studio people view it as a personal attack: You can make fun of writers, directors, actors, but not them.” Levinson said.
