As is so often the case with Allen, the cast is becoming quite impressive: it already featured Marion Cotillard, Kathy Bates, Rachel McAdams, Owen Wilson, Michael Sheen and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy....

Danny Elfman Scoring Sacha Gervasi’s ‘Hitchcock,’ And ‘Promised Land’ From Gus Van Sant By Russ Fischer/Sept. 13, 2012 12:14 pm EST Two new movies that will bear music from Elfman are Gus Van Sant’s Promised Land, starring Matt Damon and John Krasinski, and Hitchcock, which chronicles the efforts by the Master of Suspense to make Psycho. Both of these projects make total sense given Elfman’s prior output. Elfman and Gus Van Sant have worked together steadily since the mid-’90s, when Elfman and Van Sant did To Die For....

Early Buzz: Danny Boyle’s 127 Hours By Russ Fischer/July 13, 2010 3:23 pm EST Beyond that, some reports have surfaced from the first test screening, and they are overwhelmingly positive. Keep in mind that these reports are based on a version of the film that is not finished — the sound, music and FX were are not done, and the edit will almost certainly change — but if the basic impressions can apply to the finished cut, 127 Hours may be a very interesting picture when released this coming winter....

Exclusive: Mondo And Iron Jaiden Create A Poster For Ben Wheatley’s Wild ‘Kill List’ By Russ Fischer/Jan. 30, 2012 11:30 am EST As a follow-up to the movie Down Terrace, director Ben Wheatley made the tense and rather strange film Kill List. The picture defies typical categorization, because it blends elements of domestic drama, a hitman thriller and a much weirder sort of suspense story that will, I think, earn a few pleasingly shocked reactions from viewers....
