ROLAND EMMERICH TO HELM
JEREMY IRVINE IN 'STONEWALL'
Well, this is certainly an unusual project for Roland Emmerich, the king of blockbusters: according to Deadline he will helm gay rights drama STONEWALL which has just tied Jeremy Irvine to star in the lead role. The film is about the 1969 police raid at the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village, a mafia owned bar that was a gathering place for gays and transgenders. It became the flashpoint for the gay rights movement, a galvanizing event that is considered a touchstone even today in the fight for equal rights for the gay and transgender population. The story will focus on a young man’s political awakening in the backdrop of those riots. You can currently watch Jeremy in THE RAILWAY MAN next to Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman, while Emmerich is prepping INDEPENDENCE DAY2
'WISH I WAS HERE' TRAILER
WITH ZACH BRAFF, KATE HUDSON
Today's trailer is for Zach Braff's beautiful drama which hits theatres this July. WISH I WAS HERE tells story of Aidan Bloom, a struggling actor, father and husband, who at 35 is still
trying to find his
identity; a purpose for his life. He and his wife are barely getting by
financially and Aidan passes his time by fantasizing about being the
great futuristic Space-Knight he'd always dreamed he'd be as a little
kid. When his ailing father can no longer afford to pay for private
school for his two kids and the only available public
school is on its last legs, Aidan reluctantly agrees to attempt to
home-school them. The result is some funny chaos, until Aidan decides to
scrap the traditional academic curriculum and come up with his own.
Through teaching them about life his way, Aidan gradually discovers some
of the parts of himself he couldn't find.

I'd see WALKING ON SUNSHINE just for the soundtrack.
ReplyDeletewe do love us those delightful 80's hits... the best decade in music ever
DeleteYes, I heard about the plans for a Stonewall movie. There was a made-for-TV movie a few years back which wasn't terrific, I seem to recall. I hope they get a good screenplay written for this latest attempt.
ReplyDeletefingers crossed, I kinda liked what Emmerich did in his previous drama attempt with ANONYMOUS
DeleteStonewall sounds timely. And you just reminded me I want to see The Railway Man. Need to get that on my TBW list. :)
ReplyDeleteIt opens tomorrow in your cinemas :)
DeleteI'm all for equal rights. I'm just surprised Mr Let's Destroy More Buildings is involved.
ReplyDeletehe did change his ways a few years ago with ANONYMOUS
DeleteI wasn't aware. Was it any good?
Deleteit was a deeply intriguing historical drama, totally unlike any other of his works and the cast was brilliant too
DeleteUnbelievable.
Deleteyou should watch it, it's about Shaky Wills and who he was
DeleteI've now officially put it on my must watch list.
Deletebut you have to wear and Elizabethan costume with frills and lace and embroidery when you watch it!
DeleteNo problem. I'm beyond shameful.
DeleteHappy Thursday, Dez. What's your pick of the litter?
ReplyDeletethe last one, I do love me pop musicals!
DeleteWISH I WAS HERE looks beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteOne of the better trailers we've seen in a long time, works so well with music
DeleteI like Lewis
ReplyDeletewe adore her
DeleteWalking On Sunshine is one my favorite 80's songs.
ReplyDeleteIt takes a special kind of person to homeschool their kids. Looks like a cute movie.
as a teacher I do not support homeschooling kids, it's wrong on too many levels, but I always like to listen to people's experiences with it since we, thankfully, don't have it here
DeleteI'll have to check out Stonewall as I don't know anything about the incident.
ReplyDeleteWish I Were Here-hahahahaha. I home schooled, but there was no soundtrack and no California sun. Jesus Christ, this fool doesn't know who he is and what is purpose is by age 35, he should just drown himself in the ocean and fuck the movie :)
ah, Annzie, you'd be surprised with how many people are lost in their thirties, forties..... Time goes by so fast, sometimes you don't even notice it slipped through your life....
DeleteA musical with all 80's music! That'll be entertaining!
ReplyDeletewe shall sing and dance to it like crazy
DeleteI'm excited about Wish I Was Here. I need a feel good movie.
ReplyDeletethe trailer is really heart warming
DeleteLove me the 80's tunes! I'll see Walking as my guilty pleasure. ;) Love Zach's story, it looks very charming and heartwarming.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy about Stonewall. It is about time the story was brought to the big screen. And I love that they cast Jeremy Irvine.
he is growing on me step by step
