Moved by movies.

March 4, 2006



I cant seem to sleep long enough so im doing some words and news(movies) for you.. : )

Updates:


-The next James Bond film(Casino Royale) which stars Daniel Craig(new 007) and recently confirmed leading lady Eva Green(Kingdom of Heaven,The Dreamers!) will also feature A Ford car(they paid $14m dollars to feature thier car) plus a new Aston Martin car(the favorite brand of 007.haha)…The theme song and the artist that will do it is unkown yet.But the talk will include six 0 digits also!haha

-The Oscars will be happening March 5th(march 6th here) so watch out for it.Brokeback Mountain will be the clear winner as i also predicted,technical awards will go to king kong(sound editing,visual effects,etc.) and let’s see my guesses if they are correct!haha.



‘For your consideration’ ad of king kong.. 

-The new trailer of ‘A scanner darkly’ is online now.Based on the philip k. dick(sci-fi legend) novel and directed by Richard Linklater(A visionary director who directed before sunrise,Waking life and before sunset) and features an all star cast.The movie looks like a better waking life in terms of the cartooned graphics(like the wallpaper graphics of San Andreas the pc game.haha.)..It will be out probably on summer here..Some screen caps that i took from the new preview.

 

 

Keanu&Winona in 3d cartoon look..haha

—————————————————————————————————-


-Lastly,this movie called “Sorstalansag”,Fateless in english is playing now on select theaters in the US.A book written by Imre Kertesz(nobel prize winner for literature)before they made it to film,its another true wwII holocaust story but i just have this fond interest on WWII and events that conspired in that period of time.The plot focuses about a boy named “Gyuri” and how he suffered and lived through the nazi years with his courage and will to survive.Remember Speilberg’s “Empire of the sun”? It’s like it but very much heavier if you know what i mean.I’m aware of Fateless since it was selected in last year’s berlin film festival but i knew it was not for a wide release..It is directed by veteran cinematographer,Lajos Koltai(malena,emperor’s Club,being Julia are some of his works) with the music of the amazing Ennio Morricone(one of my idols in music) and Lisa Gerrard(on chants)..These names are enough for me to be interested in this movie,and besides i always been moved by movies with great musical score and plot..Perhaps i’ll wait for the dvd and order one plus the soundtrack which i believe will be one of the last ones composed by ennio morricone(because he’s 78 already same with john williams at 74)..But i do hope not!hahaha.The new james bond,Daneil Craig is also on this film as a us army sergeant.Im waiting for this one,calling on think film(please release the dvd soon!).hahaha

Bonus:pronounciations of names above if you are interested.haha
Imre Kertesz-Eemre Kerteyz
Lajos Kotlai-Layojch Koltay
Enio Morricone-Enniyo Morrikone

-Adding another one on my cd wishlist this year.The soundtrack of Tsotsi!(A beautiful african film.I hope it wins the best foreign language film at the oscars)..

It’s almost breakfast time.I also have to picture out how to accumulate 50 good photos..Till later!

Visions…Visions…

Earlier i did some practice shots on a nearby hangout place(as socialites calls it!) and eat  there.hahaha..But i was not there to do the “hangout thing” and im not like that(will never be).So few minutes after 7,i was able to do some interesting shots and i just want to share it to all of you..By the way,i was accepted by a local company as a contributinng artist to thier services..Though i must sum up at least 50 good shots for thier imagebank to be able for the membership to be official..If im successful with this,i might able to get royalty for my shots/photos when someone gets interested with it/print it in high resolution…Before i was accepted i sent 3 sample photos of what i could do as thier requirement..Im glad they liked it!hahaha…Ill update you on this,Time for me to sleep.I have of a lot of succession of thinking to do tommorrow(visions,visions,VISIONS!!)hahaha.

Some of the photos i took earlier.
