The Telegraph Tim Robey awaits the return of Hollywood's poet Terrence Malick with The Tree of Life and investigates his mystique.
Nick's Flick Picks encounters the first Todd Haynes project he's not totally gaga for: Mildred Pierce. I share his trepidations but like him, am definitely enjoying the details and the actressing.
La Daily Musto John Cameron Mitchell (Rabbit Hole) is even using Kickstarter now? It's a whole new world. This is for funding for an animated film.

Playbill Here's an interesting idea. Andrew Lloyd Webber doesn't think it will ever happen but he wants Madonna, who already played Evita in his world, for the big screen version of his Sunset Boulevard musical.
Movie|Line Remember Josh Pence, who got that SAG nomination for just his body appearing onscreen with Armie Hammer's face on it in The Social Network? Now we get his face: he's got a role in The Dark Knight Rises. Happy endings.

This version of Mildred Pierce is horrible... the writing , the acting are dreadful .. settings are good... Winslet lets her english accent enter the scenes too often ( why not an American actress ) Streep always seems to be criticized for her taking English roles ( Thatcher )... the little girl playing Veda is amateurish .. have not yet seen the episodes with Rachel Evan Wood. I would say watch the original version ... this one drags for the first 3 episodes.

I have nothing to say but this. Veda is a cunt. This miniseries made me not to want a child. If I were Mildred, I'd shoot her right off her head.
