Janet Arlotta To Write & Produce "Going Due South"

Arlotta bringing romance and laughs to New Orleans with new film Going Due South

Acclaimed author Janet Arlotta, a semi-finalist in Final Draft’s Big Break Screenwriting Contest, will write and produce the romantic comedy Going Due South.

Arlotta produces alongside Carol Eisenrauch.

The romantic comedy, set to shoot in New Orleans later this year, has kicked off a crowdfunding campaign on IndieGoGo.

An up-and-coming reality TV producer travels to the Big Easy to shoot her latest series and finds New Orleans too intoxicating to ignore and Daniel, the sexy southerner, too perfect to want to… even though her career hangs in the balance.

“Going Due South is about having a chance at love… the kind that makes you weak in the knees and longing for more”, says Arlotta, who has worked in nearly every facet of filmmaking . “This film is a romantic picturesque stroll through New Orleans and the two individuals who happen to stroll each other's way…and hopefully not trip.”
Going Due South’s script is garnering as much buzz in Hollywood as it is the interest of some of today’s most popular actors.
Arlotta, an author and screenwriter for nearly twenty years, was inspired to write a film set in New Orleans after living there while traveling the US in the back of a van.

New Jersey native Arlotta owned the world-renowned, Emmy award winning creative company FUEL, in Los Angeles, from 2001-2009. In 2012, Arlotta had the honor of having her work included in a Motion Type exhibit in the Gutenberg Museum in Mainz Germany.

The movie will shoot in such well-recognized NOLA locations as the French Quarter, Jackson Square, and Louis Armstrong Park.

2% of all funds raised on Indiegogo will be donated to the SEEDS organisation. SEEDS teaches respect for life, for the earth and for each other through gardening and growing food. Located in the heart of Downtown Durham, they are an urban sanctuary focused on promoting principles and practice of sustainable agriculture, organic gardening, food security and environmental stewardship.

Enter For A Chance To Win Pass To See MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS on December 5th at 7:30 PM in Austin. MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS explores the turbulent life of Mary Stuart ( Saoirse Ronan ). Queen of France at 16 and widowed at 18, Mary defies pressure to remarry. Instead, she returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne alongside her cousin Elizabeth I ( Margot Robbie ), who rules as England’s Queen. Rivals in power and in love, and female monarchs in a masculine world, the two must decide how to play the game of marriage versus independence. Determined to rule as much more than a figurehead, Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth’s sovereignty. Betrayal, rebellion, and conspiracies within each court imperil both thrones – and change the course of history.

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert?

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert? We're halfway checked out for the holiday weekend, so let's end with bit of comedy. A litigious videogame player is calling Winona Ryder to testify as an expert in "alienation." Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices." The plaintiff says he suffers from several mental health problems brought on by WoW's "alienating" features, such as forcing beginners to walk or run to get from one point to another instead of speedier options available to those who master the game or buy an expansion pack. Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

By Matt Cummings
The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
