Prince Harry Biopic in the Works
5 October 2009 6:00 PM, PDT | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »
In his 25 years of life, Prince Harry has been able to attract lots of attention for his bizarre decisions that range from wearing a Nazi outfit to choosing to go to the military rather than a university. Now, the DailyMail is reporting that a film based on his life is headed to the big screen. Entitled "The Spare," the paper says that it will "chart the prince's biography from being trapped in a tragic fairy tale to becoming a royal warrior." "The Spare" will be international in scale and will begin filming in about one year around the UK and the Middle East. Director Peter Kosminsky said that he is still waiting to read Jeremy Brock's script, but some of the actors on his list to portray Harry are Aaron Johnson (Kick-Ass), Harry Treadaway (Clash of the Titans) and Rupert Friend (Pride and Prejudice). He added that he wouldn't »
Goodbye Toronto: Fish Tank and Le Refuge
21 September 2009 9:56 AM, PDT | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
MattCanada reporting from the Toronto International Film Festival
The festival has ended and Lee Daniels' Precious has won the jury prize. Congratulations to it, and the scores of awards it is now assured to collect. Before I say goodbye, notes on the last two films I saw at Tiff: Le Refuge and the much talked about Fish Tank.
I was very excited for Le Refuge because François Ozon is one of those world cinema directors I always enjoy. However, despite great performances and beautiful cinematography, it left me cold. The story of a pregnant drug addict (Isabelle Carré) forming a relationship with the dead baby-daddy's gay brother (Louis-Ronan Choisy) seemed too oblique to me. Maybe it's just that I like a few more histrionics, but to be perfectly honest, by the time the film ended I felt very little. Le Refuge is technically accomplished but I just couldn't connect with the film, »

tMF Featured Trailer: Andrea Arnold's Fish Tank
12 September 2009 6:58 AM, PDT | The Movie Fanatic | See recent The Movie Fanatic news »
Regarded as one of the most innovative British filmmakers today - Andrea Arnold got that distinction via the film, Red Road - which also happens to be her first feature film. At the recent Cannes, her second feature was received with criticial praise, Fish Tank. The Times Online was very generous about her new film and I quote:

And it's fitting that her picture screens alongside the latest from Ken Loach - there is an obvious debt here to his brand of compassionate naturalism. Arnold builds on the humanistic, low key intimacy of her feature debut, Red Road, which won the Jury prize at »

“Fish Tank” Trailer
10 September 2009 2:20 PM, PDT | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »
Take a look at fantastic trailer for “Fish Tank” directed and written by Andrea Arnold.
“Fish Tank” tells the story of 15-year-old Mia whose life is turned on its head when her mother brings home a new boyfriend.
This is the latest movie from Arnold, Academy Award-winning British filmmaker (Best Short Film “Wasp”). She won 2006 Cannes Jury Prize for “Red Road.” “Fish Tank” is screened at this year’s Cannes Film Festival in competition and also won Jurry Prize.

The movie also stars BAFTA-nominated Kierston Wareing (Ken Loach’s “It’s a Free World“), Harry Treadaway (”Control,” “Brothers of the Head“) and 12 year old Rebecca Griffiths making her film debut.

French Fish Tank Poster
23 August 2009 10:48 AM, PDT | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »
A French poster for upcoming “Fish Tank,” extraordinary films about ordinary people, has been revealed.
Everything changes for 15 year old Mia when her mum brings home a new boyfriend.
“Fish Tank” is a coming of age movie set on a rundown English council estate. The characters are filled with equal measures of frustration, anger, longing and alcohol, without means to release the pressure. The decaying situation is played out with a credibility that leaves the audience unsurprised at the outcomes but gripped by the tension. With nowhere to go but down, the mood is deliberately oppressive. The tank is grimy, and breathing underwater almost impossible, but even so we glimpse gold on the scales of these fish.
The film is directed and writen by British filmmaker Andrea Arnold, fast becoming one of Britain’s most respected directors. Her short film ‘Wasp’ won an Oscar in 2005, her first feature ‘Red Road »

tMF Featured Trailer: Coming of Age tale 'A Boy Called Dad'
20 August 2009 9:04 PM, PDT | The Movie Fanatic | See recent The Movie Fanatic news »
Expect the UK as producer of quality films - and in the genre 'coming-of-age', there is no competition. I'll get to some of the year's best - featuring Andrea Arnold's Fish Tank (Katie Jarvis), plus mentions including last year's Dummy (Aaron Johnson and Thomas Grant) and the thriller The Disappeared (with Harry Treadaway), but our featured trailer comes from a film which received both glowing reviews and some disappointments - A Boy Called Dad.
- - -
- - -
As usual, we focus on the acting, and one can't help it but be impressed with Kyle Ward, the young actor who plays the lead.
After their remarkable BAFTA award-winning short About a Girl (Best British Short Film, Eiff 2001) and successful careers working in television, director Brian Percival and writer Julie Rutterford's latest feature is a sympathetic study of a young boy's unexpected and accelerated ascent into adulthood. »

Interview with Johnny Kevorkian, director of The Disappeared
13 July 2009 11:43 PM, PDT | QuietEarth.us | See recent QuietEarth news »
[Editor's note: The Disappeared premiers on IFC On Demand on Wednesday, July 15th. We like this one. Review here.]
Back in August of last year, Qe managed to get in on the UK premiere of Johnny Kevorkian's urban ghost story, The Disappeared at the Frightfest in London. Review here. The film went down a treat and was a highlght of the festival, Imho. A few weeks later Qe managed to catch a busy, and somewhat relieved Mr. Kevorkian, (no relation), for a coffee and a chat to discuss this very British film.
Qe: Where did the seed of the idea for The Disappeared originate?
Jk: Myself and Neil Murphy, the Producer had had a really bad experience of a film script that we had optioned. I'm not going to mention the name. We'd tweaked the script and made it much better, but then we lost the funding and it was very, very frustrating. We said to ourselves that we couldn't keep on getting other people's scripts and spending »
Fish Tank (2009)
20 June 2009 12:00 AM, PDT | Pretty/Scary | See recent pretty-scary news »
Directed and Written by Andrea Arnold
Featuring Michael Fassbender, Harry Treadaway, Katie Jarvis, Jason Maza, Charlotte Collins, Brooke Hobby, Chelsea Chase
Review by projectcyclops
Fifteen-year-old Mia (Katie Jarvis) spends her time avoiding school, nicking cash, drinking cider and practicing dance moves in an empty council flat, on the estate where she lives with her single mother and younger sister in London. She argues with just about anybody who crosses her and within the first minute of the film she’s head-butted a girl who gives her a bit of lip. When her mother angrily demands to know what the hell’s wrong with her, Mia’s pointed response is, “You’re what’s wrong with me!”...
Katie Jarvis is the star of Fish Tank and her incredible performance should go down as one of the best of this year, especially given that she’s not a trained actress, and was »

Interview: Johnny Kevorkian, Director of The Disappeared and Sleep Thief
13 June 2009 1:00 PM, PDT | Slash Film | See recent Slash Film news »
Johnny Kevorkian's debut feature film The Disappeared is notable as a horror movie that is neither a remake nor a gore fest. It is also distinguished by the depth of characterization it shoots for, and assisted by the great performance of Harry Treadaway in the lead, Kevorkian has succeeded in giving us a horror film protagonist with a little light, a little dark and a lot of soul. I have spoken to Kevorkian about this film, and also about his upcoming second project Sleep Thief. That's another horror film, though one will apparently skew more towards the gore-effect end of the spectrum without sacrificing the atmosphere and ambitious writing. That interview follows, along with a trailer for The Disappeared. Here's an edited transcript of how Johnny responded to my questioning, subject by subject. The trailer can be found at the bottom of the post. On finding out that The Disappeared »

Future Doctor Who Matt Smith isn't the only British actor in Cannes this week, and TOgether isn't the only british movie in contention for an award. As such our shade-wearing intrepid future Time Lord is among friends, in particular Harry Treadaway who stars in Fish Tank, a feature-length drama that also stars Michael Fassbender (Hex, Murphy's Law, 300) that is interestingly directed by Andrea Arnold, former kids TV presenter from the 1980s Saturday morning show Number 73.

Review: 'City of Ember'
31 January 2009 7:59 AM, PST | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »
Other than the Narnia movies, and more recently Inkheart, there really haven’t been many good fantasy films aimed at families. That’s why 20th Century-Fox’s City of Ember proved to be such a major disappointment.
The film opened last fall after an extensive marketing campaign aimed not at the families but at the fans who might have kids. The mainstream marketing was lackluster and may have resulted in the film earning just under $8 million at the box office and vanishing without a trace. Which also goes to explain the plain vanilla DVD release, now on sale.
Based on the book series by Jeanne Duprau, the film quickly introduces us to the concept of the underground city of Ember, constructed and populated in the case of global calamity. The elders who conceived of this audacious plan prepared a container with instructions on how to exit the city and set »
