These were on twitter this a.m., thanks to whoever retweeted them for us.

I remember when Alex went to South America to spend some time with his dad. I presume this is what Stellan was filming-- Rouge Brésil.

There are few details on IMDb. It says it's a tv miniseries. Maybe it's going to see the light of day outside of Brazil??

I really love that Stellan just doesn't give a fuck about wardrobe - there's always something a bit "sloppy" in his formal appearances. It could be an untucked shirt, a wrinkled jacket or the loose tie with the unbuttoned collar. It's refreshing to see someone not take themselves too seriously.

And Cate Blanchett can still do no wrong in my eyes. I'm very excited to see this movie, based on the cast alone. It should be a fun take on the traditional Cinderella story.

You can also watch the photo call and press conference in full length here: www.berlinale.de/de/im_fokus/videostreaming/videos/long_versions_2015/201508077_pk.html

Hope they'll add the red carpet later. Maybe some of the more technic savvy people here can embed it. image

You can switch the language into English in the upper right corner of the homepage, so you won't have to listen to the crappy translator.

Cinderella Movie Review



Posted by Chiara Spagnoli Gabardi On February - 20 - 2015 0 Comment

Title: Cinderella

Director: Kenneth Branagh

Starring: Lily James, Richard Madden, Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham-Carter, Holliday Grainger, Sophie McShera, Derek Jacobi, Stellan Skarsgard.

‘Cinderella’ is the romantic story that has been most adapted on screen, from the fairytale animated version to all the contemporary “happily ever afters” that occur when the wretched girl meets the charming established boy.

The most prominent Shakespearean director of our times, who has also tested successfully the direction of Marvel flicks (Thor) – Kenneth Branagh – directs the Disney action movie starring Lily James as Cinderella and Richard Madden as Prince Charming. But the real deal are the collateral actors: the sophisticated Cate Blanchett as the step mother (that would make any Prince Charming fall for her rather than pick the rhetorical doe-eyed ingenue), a wacky Helena Bonham Carter (with a majestic LED equipped gown), the former Downton Abbey apprentice cook transformed into one of the step sisters (Sophie McShera), the twicely appointed Sir (Derek Jacobi), embodying the wise King and Stellan Skarsgard interpreting the mischievous Grand duke.

The story of Cinder“Ella” follows the conventional Disney plot. Branagh’s intention, as he explained, was “to bring the classical visual element together with today’s human dynamics, welding traditional and contemporary.” Some may wonder if King Lear with three daughters might have influenced Sir Branagh’s Stratford-upon-Avon inclination. But besides finding a correlation betwixt Cinderella’s recurring phrase “Be Kind and Be Brave” and King Lear’s quote “Have patience and endure,” the director praises his cast, the scenography by Dante Ferretti and Francesca Lo Schiavo, along with the costumes by Sandy Powell. Indeed they are outstanding. Cinderella’s ball gown “seems to have a life of its own when waltzing with the Prince,” Lily James said at the Milanese press conference; and “Kenneth’s gentlemanlike personality has been of inspiration,” Richard Madden explained about getting into character.

The fairytale mood seems to have spilled out from fiction to reality: the chemistry between the director and his two lead actors is so strong that Branagh hinted there might be a Shakespearean project where he would direct Richard and Lily in ‘Romeo & Juliet.’ A simple switch from the most exploited fairytale to the most exploited Shakespeare play.

Looks like Eija is making headway on the club circuit:

Öppettiderna för Boquerias uteservering är ons–lör 17–01. En annan nyhet för säsongen är att uteserveringen har fått ny inredning och bättre ljud på plats.


And here is quite possible the worst Google translate I've seen in awhile:

First-look picture: Stellan Skarsgård in new BBC1 drama, River

insidemediatrack.com/2015/08/first-look-picture-stellan-skarsgard-in-new-bbc1-drama-river/



‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’s actor as haunted cop
A first-look picture has been released of Swedish actor Stellan Skarsgård (above) in new BBC One six-part drama,River.

Written by Abi Morgan, River focuses on John River (Skarsgård), a brilliant police officer whose genius and fault-line is the fragility of his mind – a man haunted by the murder victims whose cases he must lay to rest.

Spooks and Last Tango in Halifax star Nicola Walker stars as DS Jackie ‘Stevie’ Stevenson, a colleague and close friend of River.

Eddie Marsan, Adeel Akhtar, Lesley Manville, Sorcha Cusack and Georgina Rich also feature in the series.

River will air on BBC One in the coming months.

Captivating new crime drama in which the victims having starring roles

★★★★ BBC1, day, date to be announced



CASTING Stellan Skarsgärd as a British detective was a bold but canny move by the makers of this intriguing thriller. If you want a performer who can play a troubled soul, then who better than a man from the land of long winter days and Ingmar Bergman, a director whose fave themes were death, bleakness and insanity?

Death is also the theme of River and Skarsgard also a Swede, familiar from movie hits such as The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Mamma Mia! He is terrific in this unusual series as Detective Inspector John River, a cranky cop traumatised by the shooting of his partner.

What starts off as a police procedural abruptly swerves into unusual territory when we realise River is no ordinary cop. The reason he is grumpy – and brilliant – is that he is haunted by the dead.

Eddie Marsan as a Victorian killer

If that sounds a bit Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased), don’t be put off. This series, written by Emmy award-winner Abi Morgan (The Hour, The Iron Lady), is far more emotionally affecting.

The people who invade River’s mind are the murder victims of his cases, in addition – bizarrely – to a serial killer from annals of Victorian crime called the Lambeth Poisoner. Eddie Marsan is suitably disturbing in this role.

River is seen talking to himself – actually to the dead – and is viewed as a bit of a nut by most officers around the police station. He hangs onto his job because of his 80 percent clear-up rate.

Nicola Walker is River’s ex-partner

While the story is good at exploring grief and loss, it is buoyed up by some beautifully funny moments. Nicola Walker (Last Tango in Halifax) is wonderful as River’s ex-partner, Stevie, all fast food and disco songs. And Adeel Akhtar – unforgettable in C4’s Utopia – turns up as another put-upon character, Ira, who is assigned to be River’s new partner.

Chalk and cheese doesn’t begin to cover it, and their scenes together veer between very funny and quite moving.

With so many fine performers and such an emotionally nuanced story, River is a notch above so many mainstream crime series out there.
