CATHERINE ZETA JONES
TO PLAY COLOMBIAN DRUG KINGPIN IN 'THE GODMOTHER'
After a long break, Welsh queen Catherine Zeta Jones will take on a lead role again! She will topline THE GODMOTHER, a biopic of infamous drug kingpin Giselda Blanco! She was the only woman to ever rise through the ranks of Colombian's notorious Medellin cartel, a feared figure during the drug wars that exploded in Miami during the 1970s and 1980s. She was said to have ordered hundreds of assassinations to attain her grip on the drug trade, which earned her nicknames such as La Madrina, Black Widow, and the Cocaine GODMOTHER. She was known for establishing a drug network between New York, Los Angeles and Colombia! She was arrested in the mid 80's and served 18 years in jail before getting killed in 2012, shot in a drive-by! Catherine Zeta Jones won an Oscar nomination for playing a druglord's wife in TRAFIC!

'INSIDE OUT' PIXAR'S TEASER
WHEN EMOTIONS GO WILD
The second trailer for today is the first teaser for Pixar's animated movie INSIDE OUT which hits cinemas next summer. It follows little Riley who is, like all of us, guided by her emotions – Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). The emotions live in Headquarters, the control centre inside Riley’s mind, where they help advise her through everyday life. As Riley and her emotions struggle to adjust to a new life in San Francisco, turmoil ensues in Headquarters. Although Joy, Riley's main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive, the emotions conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house and school.
Happy to see Queen Catherine in a major role. Sounds like a gritty one, too.
ReplyDeleteyes, I wish she would star in more happy movies... she was so utterly amazing in NO RESERVATIONS!
DeleteIt's too bad I don't particularly care for Patrick Wilson and Katherine Heigl - Home Sweet Hell sounds like it has potential, and I do like a good black comedy.
ReplyDeleteWhat the what? How can you not care for Patrick? He's the only American thespian!
DeleteGreat news day Dezzy! Everything here looks so good today! THE GODMOTHER will grab hubby's attention. He's totally in love with Catherine.
ReplyDeleteI know Katherine Heigl gets a bad wrap, but I do like most of her movies. I think she does great at comedy.
And an new animated film!? You know I am all over that! Yay!
Catherine is so easy to be in love with :) I just wish she didn't marry Douglas....
DeleteWhat the hell was she thinking. Maybe he'll just fall over dead and she'll be free.
Deletedon't think he will, dear, he survived cancer and numerous sexually transmitted diseases and he is now indestructible....
DeleteSo true. He is the indestructible man! He'll outlive the cockroaches.
Deleteand the new generations after the apocalypse ends will spawn from him.... we're doomed :)
DeleteSurely to be a new Pixar classic
ReplyDeletemaybe
DeleteThe one trailer I finally click on (the second one), and it won't play all the way for me.
ReplyDeleteMaybe another day. Until then, cheers and spooky spooky.
better luck next time
DeleteI had to skip past all that intro stuff, so maybe that was it.
DeleteHow goes you today?
That intro stuff is a part of the trailer :) I didn't like it either... but I generally don't like animated movies if they're not with animals or fairy tales :)
DeleteI couldn't get into the beginning so I jumped ahead. Boring, to me. But I do like animated films.
DeleteMade some more oatmeal raisin cookies today using oatmeal packets we had. Much better this time. Batch nearly all gobbled up.
Have a frightful night and an oogie boogie weekend.
you too!
DeleteDelightful array today, Dezzy :)
ReplyDeleteglad you think so!
DeleteCatherine as a mean person.... really? Well, if she's pulled it off, I am impressed.
ReplyDeleteshe can learn from her hubs :)
DeleteHer hips?
Deletewhat?
DeleteOh you said, 'hubs'. I thought you said, 'hips'.....
Deletetrips....
DeleteI'm not a huge comedy fan, but I see myself watching Home Sweet Hell.
ReplyDeletegood luck with that one :)
DeleteEnjoyed the bio on The Godmother. Yikes. She was one tough lady.
ReplyDeleteyep, from a teenage prostitute to drug queen and killer... life ain't easy in Latino world....
DeleteLewis Black will be the perfect "voice" for Anger!
ReplyDeleteI have to google him, don't know who he is ... but in that cast I despise that Mindy woman... I once downloaded two episodes of her sitcom MINDY PROJECT and deleted them both after two minutes of watching the first episode because she says SERBS ARE WAR CRIMINALS in the very first scene.... Disgusting wench....
DeleteI like black comedies and The Godmother looks interesting. I had no idea about the real-life person.
ReplyDeleteit's the first time I hear of her too!
DeleteI like INSIDE OUT. I always knew there were voices in my head. :)
ReplyDeletesome of us have whole choirs up in there :)
DeleteCatherine Zeta Jone's new role sounds good. I'm sure she'll do an awesome job with it.
ReplyDeleteshe will as always!
DeleteI din't know there was a "Godmother". Tough position for a female to hold onto in a male dominated society. Our Catherine will do a good job of it though. Surely she has some pent up rage she needs to release.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure she does, dear, and she has drug experience in the family from Michael Douglas' side :(
DeleteNot seen our Catherine about for a long time. Does she EVER get any older?
ReplyDeleteWhy is is that animated characters have such MASSIVE eyes? Freaks me out.
The black comedy sounds good stuff!
she had long breaks due to her husband's and her own health issues.
