BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Soundtrack Review: #Brooklyn

The beautiful score for Brooklyn perfectly matches the film's delicate charm. Review by Matt Cummings Music isn't the only thing ingredient to making a good film, but it's an important element in crafting its tone. Composer Michael Brook's score for Brooklyn does just that, taking us to far away places and times that while strengthening the film's chances for a Best Picture nomination. Told through the eyes of Eilis Lacey (Saoirse Ronan), Brooklyn tells of a young Irish immigrant navigating her way through 1950's New York. After a difficult voyage and period of adjustment, Ellis is swept up in a relationship with a working Italian (Emory Cohen), who instantly falls in love with Ellis' sweet charm. But when her new life is disrupted by tragic news from home, Ellis returns to find that she might not be so ready to leave. Composer Michael Brook grants us with a glimpse into Ellis' world in different ways, from the playful Seasick to t

Movie Review: 'Brooklyn'

The period piece moves with a gentle grace, but it's story can't keep up. Review by Matt Cummings In Director John Crowley's period drama Brooklyn , the meager Irish woman Eilis (Saoirse Ronan) comes to America during the 1950's in search of a better life. Leaving behind the only world she's ever known, Eilis initially struggles in New York, working at a well-respected department store but feeling completely empty and homesick. Although she's set up in a boarding home with other Irish female immigrants, Eilis struggles to adjust to her new life, until she meets the Italian plumber Tony (Emory Cohen), who is immediately smitten with her. But when tragedy forces her to return home, Eilis is immediately courted by Jim (Domhnall Gleeson) and must make a difficult decision: stay and enjoy an opulent life or take a chance on Brooklyn and the love which awaits her. Based on the novel by Colm Toibin, Brooklyn is beautifully shot and well acted, with Ron

Ryan Gosling Directorial Film "Lost River" To Hit Theaters

Ryan Gosling 's directorial debut Lost River will hit theaters after all. Lost River , which Gosling also wrote, centers on a single mother ( Hendricks ) who enters a dream-like world while her son struggles to make ends meet and survive. The film was met with mixed reactions at Cannes. THR's film critic Todd McCarthy wrote: "As beautifully presented as the imagery is, however, none of it registers deeply because it all seems like borrowed goods. It’s flashy enough to engage the eye, but the experience is akin to flipping through a gorgeous art photography book featuring an assortment of artists rather than one." Warner Bros. has confirmed plans for a limited release for the film, which stars Christina Hendricks and Saoirse Ronan . Variety incorrectly reported on Monday that the film would be released only on VOD. Warner Bros., which acquired Lost River at the Cannes Film Festival in May, will release the film in theaters in New York and L.A. in the secon

Could Saoirse Ronan Star In Star Wars Episode VII?

Saoirse Ronan was utterly charming in her Empire Podcast interview this week, talking about her latest, How I Live Now, as well as her love of Bridesmaids, how to pronounce her name and a little movie called Star Wars Episode VII , which she recently revealed she'd auditioned for. Below is what she had to say about the experience of going in for J.J. Abrams and co., which may be a touch on the vague side, but does contain a little teasing titbit about lightsabers for any die-hard Star Wars fans to enjoy. “Yeah, I did [audition for Star Wars Episode VII]… I don’t know whether I should have said that now! I mean, everyone did. Everyone has auditioned for it. So many people I know have gone in for the part I’ve gone in for, and guys who’ve gone in for a particular part, so I’d imagine J.J. is probably just scanning the earth to find the people that ne needs.” “But nobody has a clue what it’s about, and nobody’s read the script. So I’ve gone in and read for it, but I have to s

Trailer For Byzantium Starring Saoirse Ronan & Gemma Arterton

Here is the first trailer for Byzantium,   thriller film is directed by Neil Jordan and starring Saoirse Ronan, Gemma Arterton, Caleb Landry Jones and Jonny Lee Miller . The story concerns a mother/daughter vampire duo. This is the second foray by Director Neil Jordan into the world of the undead, following his Oscar-nominated Interview with the Vampire in 1994. Clara ( Gemma Arterton ) and Eleanor ( Saoirse Ronan ) are a rampant mother-and-daughter duo of 200-year-old vampires, wreaking mayhem in the run-down quarters of an English seaside town. Eleanor yearns to be a writer, constantly recording gothic elements of her turbulent life. Despite her self-effacing demeanour, Jordan chooses to dress her in a coat with a broad crimson hood, a possible back-reference to the hooded dwarf in Nicholas Roeg's 1973 classic thriller set in Venice Don't Look Now. When Eleanor falls for the anaemic-looking Frank ( Caleb Landry Jones ), it seems that her secret may be revealed. Mean
