  • Production Notes
    A Film by John Madden Production Notes Synopsis Even the best secret agents carry a debt from a past mission. Rachel Singer must now face up to hers… Filmed on location in Tel Aviv, the U.K., and Budapest, the espionage thriller The Debt is directed by Academy Award nominee John Madden (Shakespeare in Love). The screenplay, by Matthew Vaughn & Jane Goldman and Peter Straughan, is adapted from the 2007 Israeli film Ha-Hov [The Debt]. At the 2011 Beaune International Thriller Film Festival, The Debt was honoured with the Special Police [Jury] Prize. The story begins in 1997, as shocking news reaches retired Mossad secret agents Rachel (played by Academy Award winner Helen Mirren) and Stephan (two-time Academy Award nominee Tom Wilkinson) about their former colleague David (Ciarán Hinds of the upcoming Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy). All three have been venerated for decades by Israel because of the secret mission that they embarked on for their country back in 1965-1966, when the trio (portrayed, respectively, by Jessica Chastain [The Tree of Life, The Help], Marton Csokas [The Lord of the Rings, Dream House], and Sam Worthington [Avatar, Clash of the Titans]) tracked down Nazi war criminal Dieter Vogel (Jesper Christensen of Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace), the feared Surgeon of Birkenau, in East Berlin. While Rachel found herself grappling with romantic feelings during the mission, the net around Vogel was tightened by using her as bait. At great risk, and at considerable personal cost, the team’s mission was accomplished – or was it? The suspense builds in and across two different time periods, with startling action and surprising revelations that compel Rachel to take matters into her own hands.

  • INTERVIEW with STEPHEN LANG November 13, 2014
    INTERVIEW WITH STEPHEN LANG November 13, 2014 The afternoon of November 13, 2014, I had the pleasure to interview actor, Stephen Lang at AMVETS Post 49 in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Mr. Lang was in town to perform his one-man play, Beyond Glory at the Gallagher-Bluedorn Performing Arts Center (GBPAC) on the campus of the University of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, Iowa later that evening. This interview was part of the GBPAC’s community outreach program. All military veterans received a free ticket to the show. As a veteran of the U.S.A.F., I was looking forward to the show and meeting the man that would be representing and honoring eight Medal of Honor winners that evening. As a Theatre professor, I was also looking forward to this specific interview to gain insight regarding Mr. Lang’s creative process with Beyond Glory. A veteran of theatre, television and film, Stephen Lang has had an impressive three-decade career. With over one-hundred film and television credits and an impressive list of theatrical films such as Avatar and Death of a Salesman, Stephen Lang has also graced the Broadway stage in A Few Good Men, Hamlet, The Speed of Darkness and more. His career is inspirational. He is one of America’s more formidable actors on stage or the silver screen. He received Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle and Lucille Lortel Award nominations for his Outstanding Solo Performance of Beyond Glory. Mr. Lang arrived at Post 49 not in a limousine and an entourage, but in a van with his representative.

  • South Florida Native Matt Cohen Spent His High School Years Excelling in Sports As Well As Academics and Attended Florida State University to Pursue a Business Degree
    ‘HOLIDAY DATE’ Cast Bios MATT COHEN (Joel) – South Florida native Matt Cohen spent his high school years excelling in sports as well as academics and attended Florida State University to pursue a business degree. At FSU, he decided to include some theatre classes into his curriculum. Within a short time, Cohen decided to plunge head first into his newfound passion for the arts. In 2005, Cohen moved out to Los Angeles and within the year signed on with The N network, a programming arm of MTV Networks, as a series regular on the award-winning “South of Nowhere.” Cohen played the charismatic golden boy Aiden. The show was produced by the Tom Lynch Company and completed three seasons. In 2007, Cohen transitioned to film with the lead in Columbia Picture’s Boogeyman 2, directed by Jeff Betancourt and written by Brian Sieve. Cohen plays the charming Henry Porter in the sequel to Screen Gem’s successful 2005 film. Cohen continued to excel in his acting endeavors with numerous guest-starring roles and a high-profile recurring guest roles on The CW’s “Supernatural” as young John Winchester (Jeffrey Dean Morgan). In 2009, Cohen went on to secure lead roles in several feature films including Chain Letter, written and directed by Deon Taylor, Almont Films’ drama The Outside, written and directed by Ari Davis, and Dark House, directed by Darin Scott and written by Darin Scott and Kerry Douglas Dye. Later that year, Cohen joined producer Josh Schwartz (“The OC,” “Gossip Girl,” “Chuck”) for his innovative angst-filled comedy web series “Rockville, CA” as the sexy bassist/bartender Syd.

Revenue is also the most important and intuitionistic feedback to producers, directors and actors. Therefore it is worth for us to put effort on analyzing what factors correlate to revenue, so that producers, directors and actors know how to get higher revenue on next movie by focusing on most correlated factors. Our project focuses on anaylzing all kinds of factors that correlated to revenue, for example, genres, elements in the movie, popularity, release month, runtime, vote average, vote count on website and cast etc. After analysis, we can clearly know what are the crucial factors to a movie's revenue and our analysis can be used as a guide for people shooting movies who want to earn higher renveue for their next movie. They can focus on those most correlated factors, for example, shooting specific genre and hire some actors who have higher average revenue. Reasrch Question: Various factors blend together to create a high revenue for movie, but what are the most important aspect contribute to higher revenue? What aspects should people put more effort on and what factors should people focus on when they try to higher the revenue of a movie? http://localhost:8888/nbconvert/html/Desktop/MyProjects/Pr_085/FinalProject.ipynb?download=false Page 1 of 62 FinalProject 25/08/2018, 930 PM Hypothesis: We predict that the following factors contribute the most to movie revenue.
