"The Kill Room" opens Friday

Pulp Fiction favs Uma Thurman and Samuel L Jackson are reuniting onscreen for The Kill Room, an art-world set comic thriller. It opens this Friday. But we mostly want to shout this one out because our friend Denise Grayson (The Social Network), is in it. (She's the blonde upfront. We added the star for highlight). Actors aren't allowed to promote their own work at the moment, but we can still shout out actors we love as fans or friends. The trailer to The Kill Room is after the jump...
We'll be seeing this one to support Denise. You might remember she did a "Supporting Actress Smackdown" episode here a handful of years ago. We first met Denise at a cocktail party thrown by Searchlight pictures for The Descendants a dozen years back which she attended with her late partner, Oscar-nominee Robert Forster. Parties are often filled with fun meets but it's rare that the conversation turns into years of real friendship.
The Kill Room, in which 'the art world meets the underworld', marks Uma Thurman's first feature film leading role in five years (!) and the first time she's acted with her daughter Maya Hawke. Uma is supported by Samuel L Jackson as a shady criminal, and Joe Mangianello as the assassin/art sensation. (But seriously what is it with Hollywood's fasination with assassins this past couple of decades? You'd think it was a profession as populated as, say, nursing or academia. We even have two high profile movies coming that are bluntly naming that fascination: The Killer and Hit Man, both reviewed at Venice.)
The Kill Room opens Friday September 28th in limited release.

Hollywood never knew quite what to do with Uma only Quentin did.
@Mr Ripley79-Agreed.
Being a fellow Sasha fan, I totally get it. Indeed, her professionalism and beauty make her a desirable employee. It's not often that I feel myself curious about her next actions or wardrobe choices, though. Hence, I feel like something is lacking, even if the blunt outfit caught me by surprise and earned her a lot of kudos this week. Connections wordle
