Julianne Moore In New Atom Egoyan’s Movie Chloe
Julianne Moore, Liam Neeson and Amanda Seyfried probably will star in new movie “Chloe” which will be directed by Atom Egoyan (“Adoration“) and financed by StudioCanal.
The screenplay was written by Erin Cressida Wilson.
In the film, Julianne Moore thinks her husband (Liam Neeson) has been unfaithful. To figure this out, she employs a female escort (Amanda Seyfried) to try and make him stray. This has very negative effects on her family.
Blindness – First 5 Minutes
There’s a lot of buzz about this movie these days. We just wrote about the “Blindness” movie problems.
But now take a look at first five minutes of “Blindness” directed by Fernando Meirelles and starring Julianne Moore, Gael Garcia Bernal and Mark Ruffalo.
Blindness International Trailer
New international trailer for the upcoming “Blindness,” – apocalyptic nightmare adapted from the 1995 novel by Nobel laureate José Saramago and directed by Fernando Meirelles – has been released, showing some never-before-seen scenes from the movie.
In an unnamed city of the near future, a terrifying epidemic of “white blindness” – the sufferers seeing only milky white light – spreads like wildfire. The infection’s ground zero is a Japanese businessman (Yusuke Iseya) who staggers sightlessly from his luxury automobile which is promptly stolen by an opportunist thief who also goes blind.
The man finds himself in the offices of an eye doctor (Mark Ruffalo) who is also treating a high-class prostitute (Alice Braga) in the business of servicing clients in a hotel, with the help of a discreet barman (Gael García Bernal). All go blind and from this nexus, the disease spreads.
”Blindness” New Trailer and Character Posters
‘‘Blindness”, adapted from the 1995 novel by Nobel laureate José Saramago, is Fernando Meirelles‘ third film, after his heralded 2002 thriller “City of God” and 2005′s “The Constant Gardener“.”Blindness” movie, an apocalyptic nightmare, urban collapse, opened Cannes Film Festival 2008 and also was in Competition.
Although Saramago’s book was published more then 10 years ago, he declined to sell rights to the book for years. He resisted because it’s a violent book about social degradation and rape. Saramago didn’t want it given the typical Hollywood horror treatment.
Meirelles convinced Saramago only after his producer and screenwriter traveled to the Canary Islands and spent two days with the novelist discussing the potential of a new visual allegory about the fragility of civilization.
In an unnamed city of the near future, a terrifying epidemic of “white blindness”, the sufferers seeing only milky white light, spreads like wildfire.
As the shuffling inmates become used to their blindness, they experience a crisis, being and being perceived: they see no one and no one sees them. Do they exist? Did they exist before? Other inmates, however, see a new equality or democracy in blindness: young and old, ugly and beautiful, all are levelled.
And all the time Julianne Moore, exiled from the community of suffering, must endure a vision of horror from which everyone else is spared. She has characteristically strong performance as a lone figure who retains her eyesight, bearing sad but heroic witness to the horrors around her.

‘Blindness’ – New Clip
‘Blindness’ is Fernando Meirelles’ third film, after his heralded 2002 thriller “City of God” and 2005’s “The Constant Gardener,” landed the coveted opening night slot at the 61st Cannes Film Festival starting Wednesday.
‘Blindness’ Clip
‘Blindness,’ based on the bestselling 1998 novel by Nobel Prize-winning Portuguese writer José Saramago is an allegory about the fragile state of civil society and the human spirit.
“Blindness” is narrated by Danny Glover, a late addition to the film, Fernando Meirelles said, because the director wanted to weave Saramago’s actual prose and reflections into the action, adapted from the novel to the screen by screenwriter Don McKellar.
