Revlon Signs Oscar-Nominated Actress Julianne Moore
Revlon Signs Oscar-Nominated Actress Julianne Moore November 20, 2001 NEW YORK, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Revlon announced today that two time Oscar-nominated actress Julianne Moore has joined the company's exclusive group of spokespeople. Moore, star of the highly acclaimed films ``Hannibal,'' ``Boogie Nights'' and ``The Big Lebowski,'' will appear in advertising campaigns for the company and will participate in philanthropic efforts dedicated towards the fight against women's cancers. Moore will appear in various advertising campaigns for the Revlon brand, with the first television commercial scheduled to break nationally in January 2002. In addition, Revlon and Moore have committed to work together towards a common goal -- the fight against breast and ovarian cancers. Moore will participate in select corporate and philanthropic events for the company. ``Julianne is the perfect example of today's modern woman,'' said Revlon CEO and President Jeff Nugent. ``As a beautiful, respected actress and dedicated mother, Julianne balances her hectic schedule with grace and ease. She knows what's important in life and pursues it with confidence and integrity. We're thrilled to have such a remarkable woman representing the company,'' Nugent said. Moore most recently starred in the blockbuster hit ``Hannibal,'' opposite Anthony Hopkins and Gary Oldham. Her next role will be in the highly anticipated Miramax film, ``The Shipping News'' co-starring Kevin Spacey, Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett. The film is scheduled to be released in December 2001. ``I'm very excited to be working with a well-respected company like Revlon,'' said Julianne Moore. ``I have always admired their dedication to women's health issues and their long-standing position as a truly iconic American beauty company. -
Australian Films
AUSTRALIAN FILMS: The Rage in Placid Lake Just out of prep school -- where he was the target of tyrannical bullies -- misfit teen Placid Lake (Ben Lee) yearns to be a regular Joe. When a mishap lands Placid in a body cast for months, he formulates a plan to reinvent himself by donning a suit and taking a job as a drone at an insurance agency. But he soon discovers that conformity isn't what it's cracked up to be in this offbeat Aussie comedy from rookie director Tony McNamara. Strictly Ballroom This quirky, tenderly hilarious romantic comedy is sure to leave you tapping your toes. Directed by Baz Luhrmann, Strictly Ballroom is the off-beat story of a championship ballroom dancer (Paul Mercurio) who breaks all the rules by choosing an ugly duckling dancing partner (Tara Morice). Sweet, funny and original, this is one you won't forget quickly. The Castle When plans for an airport expansion threaten the home of Darryl Kerrigan (Michael Caton) and his family, the patriarch refuses to move from his "castle" -- in actuality, a shabby suburban tract house. Darryl rallies the troops and takes his battle to the highest court in Australia. This irreverent, warm-hearted comedy is frequently compared to The Full Monty. The Dish July 1969. Neil Armstrong is about to walk on the moon, and everyone's eyes are riveted to their TV screens. In Parkes, Australia, a radio dish antenna is slated to receive Apollo 11's video feed and send that historic sight out to the world … that is, if the Australian staff (including pipe-smoking, absent-minded scientist Sam Neill) and their NASA supervisor (the tense, by-the-book Patrick Warburton) don't make any mistakes! Rabbit Proof Fence Australia's aboriginal integration program of the 1930s broke countless hearts -- among them, those of young Molly (Evelyn Sampi), Gracie (Laura Monaghan) and Daisy (Tiana Sansbury), who were torn from their families and placed in an abusive orphanage. -

We are proud to present him with MPSE’s highest honor.” Miller called the award “a lovely thing,” adding, “It’s a big pat on the back. I was originally drawn to film through the visual sense, but I learned to recognize sound, emphatically, as integral to the apprehension of the story. -

Smoothing the Wrinkles Hollywood, “Successful Aging” and the New Visibility of Older Female Stars Josephine Dolan
Template: Royal A, Font: , Date: 07/09/2013; 3B2 version: 9.1.406/W Unicode (May 24 2007) (APS_OT) Dir: //integrafs1/kcg/2-Pagination/TandF/GEN_RAPS/ApplicationFiles/9780415527699.3d 31 Smoothing the wrinkles Hollywood, “successful aging” and the new visibility of older female stars Josephine Dolan For decades, feminist scholarship has consistently critiqued the patriarchal underpinnings of Hollywood’s relationship with women, in terms of both its industrial practices and its representational systems. During its pioneering era, Hollywood was dominated by women who occupied every aspect of the filmmaking process, both off and on screen; but the consolidation of the studio system in the 1920s and 1930s served to reduce the scope of opportunities for women working in off-screen roles. Off screen, a pattern of gendered employment was effectively established, one that continues to confine women to so-called “feminine” crafts such as scriptwriting and costume. Celebrated exceptions like Ida Lupino, Dorothy Arzner, Norah Ephron, Nancy Meyers, and Katherine Bigelow have found various ways to succeed as producers and directors in Hollywood’s continuing male-dominated culture. More typically, as recently as 2011, “women comprised only 18% of directors, executive producers, cinematographers and editors working on the top 250 domestic grossing films” (Lauzen 2012: 1). At the same time, on-screen representations came to be increasingly predicated on a gendered star system that privileges hetero-masculine desires, and are dominated by historically specific discourses of idealized and fetishized feminine beauty that, in turn, severely limit the number and types of roles available to women. As far back as 1973 Molly Haskell observed that the elision of beauty and youth that underpins Hollywood casting impacted upon the professional longevity of female stars, who, at the first visible signs of aging, were deemed “too old or over-ripe for a part,” except as a marginalized mother or older sister. -
HAMLET: PRESS RESPONSES Almeida & West End (2017) Shakespeare
HAMLET: PRESS RESPONSES Almeida & West End (2017) Shakespeare www.roberticke.com FINANCIAL TIMES Ian Shuttleworth ★★★★★ I have been privileged to see several first-class Hamlets this century: Simon Russell Beale, Samuel West, David Tennant, Rory Kinnear, Maxine Peake, arguably Lars Eidinger. Andrew Scott is at least as outstanding as any of those, and right now I’m inclined to rank him in front. His Prince is almost always self-aware, but not self-understanding; on the contrary, his keynote is a kind of bemused wonder at goings-on both within and beyond his skin. The great soliloquies seem new-minted, every word a separate question. The playfulness at which Scott so excels (most notably as Moriarty in BBC-TV’s Sherlock) is here kept under a rigorously tight rein. I did not see this production when it opened at the Almeida a few months ago, but my impression is that neither Scott’s nor anyone else’s performance has been ramped up for a venue two and half times the size; the consequent occasional intelligibility problems are far outweighed by the sense of human scale. For this is the glory of Robert Icke’s production. It does not consist of a superlative Prince Hamlet, a clutch of fine supporting performances and a number of sharp directorial ideas stitched together into a plausible fabric; rather, it is whole and entire of itself. Angus Wright’s cool, disciplined Claudius, Juliet Stevenson’s besotted-then-horrified Gertrude, Jessica Brown Findlay’s Ophelia (at first at sea like Hamlet, finally psychologically shattered in a wheelchair), David Rintoul’s doubling of the Ghost and the Player King . -
1 SET a Woman, MA (Ie Brie Larson) and a Boy with Long
SET A woman, MA (ie Brie Larson) and a boy with long hair, JACK (ie Jacob Tremblay) are in SET – ie ROOM. (Yes, this is a spoof of the film ‘Room’.) Jack is walking around saying hello to objects (and a director we can’t see). JACK: Morning, lamp. Morning, camera. Morning, director. Morning, Ma. MA: Jack, come here. I have something to tell you. Jack sits down with her. MA: Do you know what’s on the other side of that wall? JACK: What other side? MA: The other side of that wall. That fake wall. JACK: What do you mean, fake wall? MA: All these walls are fake, Jack. Listen to me: there’s a whole world on the other side of these walls. There’s a world outside of… Set. JACK: I don’t see any outside world. 1 MA: That’s because for months we’ve been trapped inside Set – inside a film studio, making a movie. But trust me, Jack – outside Set there’s a whole world... And it’s beautiful. There are real people and oceans and dogs and cats… JACK: No way. MA: No, really! I just couldn’t explain it before. When we started filming, you were too young. But now the movie’s about to wrap, I think you’re old enough to understand. JACK shakes his head in bewilderment, refusing to believe her. He starts playing with his toys, refusing to make eye contact. MA: Jack, there’s a real world out there – more real than any green screen you’ve ever seen.
