The veteran actress won't be seen being "Unfaithful" on screen anymore. Check out why the sultry siren is saying no-no to the nasty.

Filed under: Comedy, Drama, Independent, Lionsgate Films, Michael Moore If you read any part of that draft of W., Oliver Stone's Bush biopic, which hit the net a few months back, you might think it ludicrous for the film to be likened to Shakespeare. But Stone himself has done so, as part of an L.A. Times set visit interview. Lumped in with a quote in which Stone also contrasts the project to the work of Michael Moore, the Oscar-winning director's statement is in response to the film's level of seriousness: "W. isn't an overly serious movie, but it is a serious subject. It's a Shakespearean story. . . . I see it as the strange unfolding of American democracy as I have lived it." The Times piece, which reports from Shreveport, Louisiana, where Independence Bowl stadium fills in for the Texas Rangers' Arlington Stadium, is very filling for anyone with an appetite for more W. updates. Included are a description of and dialogue from a scene between George W. Bush (Josh Brolin) and George H.W. Bush (James Cromwell), details on a "baseball-oriented fantasy" sequence, Brolin stating that he's not out to do a SNL-style caricature and admitting his initial hesitance to take on the role, a general overview of the project's coming together, and, best of all, a picture (seen, cropped, above) of Brolin as the future Commander in Chief looking like he's just had the crap beaten out of him. Also a fact I'd somehow never known prior to reading the article: Stone was "briefly a Yale classmate of Bush."Continue reading Oliver Stone Calls 'W.'

Filed under: Action, RumorMonger, Remakes and Sequels I hate it when remake projects challenge your stringent loyalty and anti-remake stance. Since word first broke about a remake of John Carpenter's Escape From New York, I've been disinterested. Maybe if I ignored it, it would go away? Not quite. Gerard Butler certainly wasn't the right man for the job -- assuming that anyone could ever replace, or continue the work of Kurt Russell. But what about Josh Brolin? Spielberg News says they have the scoop that Brolin is in the running to play Plissken. It doesn't completely turn me off for two reasons: 1. Josh has got a similar look, but can bring his own brand of tough snark to the table. 2. Brolin has been picking some diverse, interesting, and good roles lately, so if he was involved, I'd assume there was something in there worth his time. And hey, Josh can certainly pull off an eye patch. Or, if that's still not enough for you, what if he was Snake's brother? Maybe it's time for Lizard Plissken to beat down some baddies.

March 7: Filmspotting is celebrating its three-year anniversary with a week off... Adam is spending time with the kids who no longer know his name, while Matty is acquainting himself with the filmography of Apichatpong Weerasethakul (it's about time!). But lest we leave you without a Filmspotting fix, we offer this look back at three Oscar-themed interviews from the past year -- conversations with Josh Brolin ("No Country for Old Men"), Todd Haynes ("I'm Not There") and Ellen Page and Diablo Cody ("Juno.") Of course, it occurs to us now that rather than going with three (recent) interviews connected by Oscar, it probably would have been more fun to really dig into the vault and revisit conversations that newer Filmspotting listeners may have missed -- Richard Linklater, Todd Field and Rian Johnson, for example. There's always episode #300. Sorry. Note that the memorable "Transformers" voicemail was the handiwork of Greg Rice from Valencia, CA. Great stuff, Greg.

The new year kicks off with the return of THE FRIDAY FILIBUSTER. This week, Dave and Mac debrief the Christmas holidays; visit the non-typical fantasy of THE GOLDEN COMPASS; the stellar non-happy fun time of Tim Burton's SWEENEY TODD; holiday pick-me-up viewing of ATONEMENT and NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN. After previewing the January 8 releases of 3:10 TO YUMA, ZODIAC, and MAMMOTH, the boys dive into their brand new feature: "The Ambush Debates." For example, who makes the better army -- Stormtroopers or Orcs? You make the call. Enjoy! You can email the boys your questions, suggestions, and complaints at fridayfilibuster@dvdverdict.com, or show your support by voting for us at Podcast Alley, and Digg.

Here is a hint! No country for Old Men is really, really, really, really good! Gone Baby Gone is simply great! We would say both have Oscar potential written all over them. Tight scripts, real to life endings, outstanding acting and creative casting. If you want the full scoop, check out today’s podcast. We have even tossed in an episode of Phillip Marlowe to boot today.

NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN is the latest film from Joel and Ethan Coen based on the novel by Cormac McCarthy. The film is an extremely dark thriller that involves 2 million dollars, a hired killer, and a man on the run. It stars Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin, and Tommy Lee Jones.

Filed under: Drama, Podcasts, Interviews, Oscar Watch, Miramax, Paramount Vantage In an Esquire piece celebrating "The Casting Mistake of the Year," Joel and Ethan Coen explained how Josh Brolin wound up cast in one of No Country for Old Men's lead roles: "Our movie version of Cormac McCarthy's No Country for Old Men had Tommy Lee Jones in place -- no mistake there -- as a crusty west-Texas sheriff on the trail of a bad man to be played by four-time-Goya-winning Spanish sex symbol Javier Bardem. And to round out the cast we hired -- we thought -- rugged everyman Jim Brolin as Llewelyn Moss, the aging Vietnam vet caught in the middle. Well, there were some red faces on the set the first day of shooting when Jim Brolin's son Josh showed up to play the part ..." This, of course, is a joke, but Brolin's not hurt; in fact, as he explained to Cinematical, he helped the Coens write the very piece that mocked him. Brolin can afford to laugh; with 2007 roles in films like American Gangster, Planet Terror, In the Valley of Elah and No Country for Old Men, the veteran actor's proven it's his year to shine. Brolin spoke with Cinematical in San Francisco about how he really got the part that's made him an Oscar contender, working with the Coens, his admiration for Cormac McCarthy's original novel, and much more.
