THE BOOK THIEF POSTERS
GEOFFREY RUSH IN WWII STORY
We shall have a photo/poster day, today at HOLLYWOOD SPY people. First, check out a new poster for THE BOOK THIEF, one of the biggest awards contenders this year. Based on the beloved bestselling book, THE BOOK THIEF tells the story of a spirited and courageous young girl (Sophie Nelisse) who transforms the lives of everyone around her when she is sent to live with a foster family in World War II Germany. Intrigued by the only book she brought with her, she begins collecting books as she finds them. With the help of her new parents (Geoffrey Rush and Emily Watson) and a secret guest under the stairs, she learns to read and creates a magical 
world that inspires them all. The movie has already played in USA cinemas, but will open up in UK theatres this February.

NEW 'IN SECRET' POSTER
ELIZABETH OLSEN IN 1860'S PARIS
Another new poster is for period set drama IN SECRET. Based on Emile
Zola classic novel THERESE RAQUIN, the story is set in the lower
echelons of 1860s Paris, where Therese Raquin (Elizabeth Olsen), a
sexually repressed beautiful young woman, is trapped into a loveless
marriage to her sickly cousin, Camille (Tom Felton), by her domineering
aunt, Madame Raquin (Jessica Lange). Therese spends her days confined
behind the counter of a small shop and her evenings watching Madame play
dominoes with an eclectic group. After she meets her husband's alluring
friend, Laurent (Oscar Isaac), she embarks on an illicit affair that
leads to tragic consequences.

"Tammy" is chock full of my favourite women actors -- I must see this when it comes to my neck of the woods!
ReplyDeleteit will probably be crazy hilarious :)
DeleteTammy sounds like it will be full of laughs
ReplyDeleteit will be totally crazy :)
DeleteOooo...Tom will make a fabulous vampire. *shivers*
ReplyDeletehe will make anything fabulous :)
DeleteWow, that's Susan Sarandon? I never would have guessed.
ReplyDeleteyep, she reached that time in which she plays grandmothers
DeleteAwesome. You can't go wrong with Tom. :)
ReplyDeleteindeed!
DeleteLots of good things here today, Dezzy.
ReplyDeleteLoved the Book Thief (book) and Only Lover Left Alive sounds good too :)
I wish THE BOOK THIEF was more present at this years' movie awards lists
DeleteAt first glance, I didn't know that was Swinton.
ReplyDeleteshe is quite a cameleon, you should see her pics from SNOW PIERCER, won't be able to recognise her
DeleteJust googled it. You're dead on, never would have known it was her.
DeleteAnd a great film too, it is
DeleteI've been looking forward to The Book Thief for some time now. Hope all is well with you darling :)
ReplyDeletethe film was already in US cinema, dear.
DeleteMethinks, we're in the same mood, dahlink.
Melissa McCarthy is typecast now. Sarandon, however, is a consummate actress. I love her in just about anything. Her role in last year's Cloud Atlas was especially moving at times.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking about that too, Michael, Melissa needs different roles soon otherwise she will become female Ben Stiller or Adam Sandler
DeleteI'm looking forward to the Book Thief. Super happy for the author :)
ReplyDeleteI hear it is a brilliant book!
DeleteI believe it has picked up awards. :)
DeleteI wouldn't be surprised
DeleteThe Book Thief sounds interesting!!
ReplyDeleteA great film it is
DeleteMichael beat me to what I was going to say about Melissa being typecast. She is so funny, but I am tired of the down on her luck, trailer trash type characters she keeps playing. I'd like to see more of her from her Gilmore Girls days.
ReplyDeleteI loved her in Gilmores and was quite surprised with her nasty humour that she has been displaying later on
DeleteDefinitely agree! She was so loveable on that show. Even what I caught of Mike and Molly too. But the movie characters she plays? No, thanks.
Deleteshe needs a change in the direction for sure
DeleteThose are lovely pictures indeed Dezzy. Lots of good actors in those movies.
ReplyDelete.......dhole
'tis true, Donna
Deleteso this TAMMY thing had nothing to do with me??? buzz kill... hahahaha
ReplyDeletewell, if you don't have a drunkard granny then it ain't you :))
DeleteOh wow these are all interesting films.
ReplyDeleteglad you like the selection, Arni
DeleteOnly Lovers Left Alive. Really? OK!
