  • http://news.yahoo.com/i/529;_ylt=A9FJqY_YAWpE6jsAGwtb.nQA;_ylu=X3oDMTA5aHJvMDdwBHNlYwN5bmNhdA-- By DAVID BAUDER, AP Television Writer 2 hours, 22 minutes ago NEW YORK - ABC is moving its hottest show, "Grey's Anatomy," to Thursdays in the fall as part of an aggressive schedule that will bring at least 15 new series to the air next season. Ted Danson, Taye Diggs, Calista Flockhart, Anne Heche, David Arquette and Rachel Griffiths are among the stars that will appear in new ABC series, the network announced Tuesday. ABC has also left the newsmagazine "Primetime" off its fall schedule for the first time since its introduction in 1989. But ABC News said "Primetime" will remain in production for specials, limited-run series and perhaps as a replacement for a failed entertainment program. ABC is the only one of the major networks to increase its ratings over last year on the strength of hits "Grey's Anatomy," "Desperate Housewives" and "Lost." But the rest of its schedule was weak, forcing the network to make an uncommonly large number of pilots. Moving the medical soap "Grey's Anatomy" to 9 p.m. Thursdays sets up a battle with one of TV's most popular shows, "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" on CBS, and NBC's most-touted new series, "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip." "There's a lot of history of big shows going up against one another and there's plenty of room for both," said Steve McPherson, ABC entertainment president. ABC canceled "Commander in Chief," leaving Geena Davis as a one-year president, although a two-hour movie may be made with the same cast. "Invasion," "Hope & Faith," "Jake in Progress" and "Sons and Daughters" were among the other shows left off the schedule. Flockhart and Griffiths star in "Brothers & Sisters," a drama about a maladjusted family. Danson is a self-help guru going through a midlife crisis in the comedy "Help Me Help You," Heche is a relationship counselor who moves to Alaska in the drama "Men in Trees" and Diggs is in "Day Break," a thriller that uses elements of the movie " Groundhog Day."

  • http://www.smh.com.au/news/Film/Hero-worship/2005/06/03/1117568361528.html?o neclick=true Hero worship By Bruce Elder June 4, 2005 Comic relief: Batman is descended from the Homeric hero, but offers a rose-tinted view of the world in which truth and justice are easily achievable goals. The names and faces may change, but Hollywood has a lasting love affair with warriors who embody wisdom, strength and courage in the face of evil. It has not been a good year for old-style heroes. Hector (Eric Bana), Achilles (Brad Pitt) and Paris (Orlando Bloom) all died an early death at the box office courtesy of Troy. Ridley Scott's crusader epic, Kingdom of Heaven, with a budget of $US130 million ($171 million), and Orlando Bloom and Liam Neeson leading the charge, has made only $US41 million after three weeks and is fading fast. Oliver Stone's Alexander, with an estimated budget of $US150 million and a raft of high-profile actors - including Anthony Hopkins, Colin Farrell and Angelina Jolie - faltered at the US box office after earning a paltry $US34.3 million, even though it opened on 2445 screens. Still, Hollywood persists. The people who control the comic and pulp fiction superhero franchises, which have served the American movie machine so well in the past, still believe they have a lucrative and responsive market. Will they succeed? By this time next year we will know for sure. Later this month Batman Begins (with Christian Bale in the title role) will try to reverse the trend. Already in production is Superman Returns with Brandon Routh, which is due out in July next year. And it seems certain that a new James Bond (played by Jude Law, perhaps) will attempt to make the 43-year-old franchise relevant next year by offering audiences Casino Royale, the 21st movie in the series. Of course, none of this can be dismissed as an irrational rush of blood on the part of Hollywood financiers. There seems to be a calculating, hard-nosed logic to the movie capital's enduring commitment to old-style heroic epics and previously lucrative superhero franchises. The world is at war - or at least George Bush is telling the world it is at war. Conventional heroes are in short supply. The war in Iraq has not produced a single person to match the heroic status of Stormin' Norman Schwarzkopf of the first Gulf War a decade earlier. There is a need to find heroes who can save the world and make it safe. That epic to beat all epics, Lord of the Rings, has earned more money than Donald Trump. Frodo and Gandalf have become role models for small people and whiskery, aged people alike. And Star Wars is still filling swimming pools with barrow-loads of money at Skywalker Ranch. So what has gone wrong? What happened to the old-style celluloid epic hero? Is it true that in a digital age audiences are more excited by 20,000 digitally created warriors than a screen heart-throb standing tall and behaving honourably? Or have we simply become sick of Hollywood foisting upon us muscled men in short skirts uttering monosyllabic banalities? These questions swirl around the recent epic film failures - especially Troy. If any film of this genre was going to succeed, surely this was the one that had "gold-plated" written over every spear, arrow and the naked bottoms of Brad Pitt and Diane Kruger. However, it couldn't retrieve its $US185 million budget; it collapsed at the US box office with returns of about $133 million. The story of Troy, based on Homer's Iliad, was the archetype for nearly all western epics and the near-invincible and god-like Achilles was the quintessential hero. But Hollywood miscast Brad Pitt. "Oh dear!" audiences around the world thought, "If heroes have come to this, then maybe we're better off with boneheaded, pratfalling heroes such as Greg Focker (Ben Stiller) and Longfellow Deeds (Adam Sandler). Maybe we should be grateful that at least we have the spectacle of tens of thousands of spear-waving pixillated ciphers when we waste our time going to a bad costume epic." That's the issue. Have we reached a point where the bumbling, fumbling incompetent (think of the irritating Mr Incredible in The Incredibles, which earned more than its $US92 million budget within a week of release in the US) is more attractive than the man of action? Have we, against all the persuasive marketing power of Hollywood, turned our backs on the classic heroes? Troy and Achilles (and Brad Pitt) lie at the heart of any discussion about heroes because, as the Oxford Dictionary points out, when the word "hero" entered the English language in the 14th century it meant: "A name given (as in Homer) to men of superhuman strength, courage, or ability, favoured by the gods ... regarded as intermediate between gods and men, and immortal." A definition, interestingly, that would comfortably apply to Superman, Spiderman, Batman, the Phantom et al. Over the next three centuries, the term broadened to include any "man who exhibits extraordinary bravery, firmness, fortitude, or greatness of soul, in any course of action, a man admired and venerated for his achievements and noble qualities". This definition pretty much includes all those monosyllabic western heroes depicted by John Wayne, Gary Cooper, Randolph Scott and Audie Murphy, as well as characters of great moral courage such as John Proctor (Daniel Day-Lewis) in The Crucible and Juror No. 8 (Henry Fonda) in 12 Angry Men. Hollywood saw heroes in simple terms. They were the goodies put on Earth to fight baddies. Heroes ensured that the baddies were defeated, the girl was saved, disaster averted and the world returned to decency and stability. The most cliched manifestation of the "goodie" hero was Alan Ladd in Shane (1953). He wore white buckskins, was filmed from a low angle against a blue sky and did "what a man's got to do" in silent dignity before riding into the distance. By contrast, the hired killer Jack Wilson, played by Jack Palance, wore black, was so evil his presence terrified the local dog (in one of the great cinematic scenes) and shot harmless innocents who ended up face down in the mud outside the saloon. This was both the cliche and the archetype. As Andrew Bernstein writes in The Philosophical Foundations of Heroism: "It is not an accident that, historically, most of mankind's heroes have been great warriors. This is so because men have recognised implicitly that there are a special few who take on all comers to achieve their ends. The designation 'hero' is a moral approbation reserved for this elite." With this traditional concept of the hero in mind, the movie industry has embraced five discernable heroic types. The most widely accepted is the hero as a man of action. This is the cliched vision of the Hollywood hero. This includes Mad Max, John J. Rambo (in the later movies), Rocky Balboa, the Terminator and any Stan Lee comic hero lucky enough to make the big screen. These heroes are invariably played by good-looking actors - although how vertically challenged people such as Alan Ladd (who, according to legend, had to stand on a box to kiss his leading lady and almost needed a ladder to get on his horse) and Tom Cruise fit the definition is a mystery. Equally vexing is the presence of Arnie Schwarzenegger, Vin Diesel, Sylvester Stallone and Jean-Claude Van Damme. Bernstein explains this love of gleaming muscles, however, when he observes, "The hero is valorous because he stands up to every threat directed against his values." The values espoused by Rocky, Rambo and their pals are nothing more than good versus evil, which, in Hollywood terms, means anyone (communists, terrorists, international criminals, psychopaths) who dares to challenge the American way. There is the hero as a man of wisdom. At its most banal, this is the martial arts master Kesuke Miyagi (Pat Morito) in The Karate Kid. In recent times it has found its finest flowering in Gandalf (Ian McKellen) in The Lord of the Rings trilogy and Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor) in the Star Wars movies. All these characters are derived from seers and mystics in myths and legends, the best-known example being Merlin in the King Arthur legend. As Bernstein writes, "It is the antagonism he faces that calls forth one of a hero's most salient moral characteristics: his courage." Courage, in the case of the macho heroes, is physical courage in the face of danger. However, it is no less potent when the man of wisdom risks his life to protect and retain a sense of goodness and decency in the world. The hero as a man of silence is one of the most enduring and compelling cinema images. Akira Kurosawa's 1954 masterpiece, The Seven Samurai, explored this idea with the silent samurai and, in turn, this led to the role of the knife-wielding Britt (James Coburn) in The Magnificent Seven and reached its nadir in Joe, sometimes known as the Man With No Name, played by Clint Eastwood in Sergio Leone's spaghetti western trilogy. The appeal of this kind of hero teeters on the edge of fantasy. It certainly plays to an unrealistic notion of human behaviour. Bernstein writes this is pure courage, which he defines as "mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear or difficulty". The hero as fantasy figure or comic-book fighter is a modern American variation on the Homeric hero. Although the settings approximate to modern America (Metropolis and Gotham City are both remarkably similar to New York), the rest of the story is pure wish fulfilment. Cinematic comic-book heroes offer a rose-tinted image of America where individuality, freedom, decency, fairness and justice are achievable goals. The first television Superman (George Reeves), for example, was promoted as a man who "fights a never-ending battle for Truth, Justice and the American Way", but, given that this was 1950s America, he never ventured into segregated Mississippi or Arkansas to fight for justice or truth for African-Americans. Equally, Batman is solely interested in meting out revenge to cartoon criminals with names such as the Joker, the Riddler, Catwoman and the Penguin. The hero as the suave, clever sophisticate is rooted in swinging 1960s London and is reserved almost entirely for James Bond. The Americans have never been able to match Bond's cool style and the screen character has never been played by an American. David Niven, Sean Connery, Timothy Dalton, George Lazenby (a bizarre Aussie exception), Roger Moore and Pierce Brosnan have all had a bash at being sophisticated in a very British kind of way. While these kinds of heroes have dominated the screen, it is interesting that: (a) they never encompass the idea of the female heroine; (b) they have little time for the antihero, and; (c) they rarely reach beyond the easy cliche of strength, good looks and simple courage. This is a fascinating insight into Hollywood's determination to persist with formulas while ignoring the evidence. In 2003, for example, the American Film Institute polled 150 directors, actors, screenwriters, critics and film historians to determine the great heroes and villains of the American cinema. The winner was not some pectoral-flexing, square-jawed macho man, but a middle-aged widower who, as a single parent, tried to look after two children and constantly felt he wasn't much good as a parent - Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck) in To Kill a Mockingbird. The same survey found that, in the '90s, the dominant heroes were not action men but unassuming women such as Erin Brockovich (Julia Roberts) in the film of the same name, Thelma (Geena Davis) and Louise (Susan Sarandon), Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand) in Fargo and Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) in The Silence of the Lambs. Bernstein says: "Courage does not necessarily require the confronting of physical danger, but it does involve more than facing extreme difficulty ... Courage is integrity in a context: it is unyielding commitment to one's values in the teeth of a force or foe that threatens them ... This bravery is the especial moral hallmark of the hero." The modern hero is courageous and moral rather than musclebound and overactive. This is probably the culmination of a process that started in the '50s with antiheroes such as Willy Loman (in Death of a Salesman), Cal Trask (James Dean) in East of Eden and Jim Stark (Dean again) in Rebel Without a Cause. Even at the height of Hollywood's "musclebound hero" phase, Sylvester Stallone was capable of playing that great Vietnam vet antihero John Rambo in the Rambo movies. He fought against a society that he believed had betrayed him. So, what about the new Batman, new Superman and a new James Bond? The orthodoxy suggests that they will be little different than their old models. They will deal with contemporary baddies (no prizes for guessing that Islamic terrorists will be high on the list) and their basic modi operandi will be the same. But now they will have all those fancy digital enhancements to ensure the explosions are bigger and the enemy is capable of mustering an army of tens of thousands. The hero has been around since Homer's time and we really don't want to tamper with him/her too much. Heroes fulfil our fantasies and ease our fears. And that always ensures that cinemas are full.

Kyle Secor was previously cast as her husband, and Ever Carradine as her press secretary. Also on board is Harry J. Lennix as the outgoing president's chief of staff. The two-hour pilot, from writer/director Rod Lurie, marks Davis' return to ABC. In 2000, she starred in and co-executive produced the network's short-lived comedy series "The Geena Davis Show." Earlier this development season, Davis had a development deal at CBS. Davis won an Oscar in 1989 for her supporting role in "The Accidental Tourist," and was nominated in the lead actress category in 1992 for "Thelma & Louise." Her feature credits include the two "Stuart Little" movies and "Beetle Juice." Reuters/Hollywood Reporter

GEORGE Clooney and Sandra Bullock may not be spring chickens by Hollywood standards but the sexy duo has topped a poll of the world's most attractive 40-year-olds. The easy-on-the-eye pair beat sizzling competition from fellow 40-somethings Brad Pitt, Teri Hatcher and Sharon Stone. The survey, commissioned to celebrate a new US TV comedy, comes in the same week as a UK survey claimed 40-somethings were enjoying the best sex. Decades of erotic practice between the sheets sees them more confident and creative than before, reports the Glasgow Daily Record. The study of 1000 men and women found 42 per cent believed they were "wiser" about sex while four-in-10 enjoyed getting down to business regularly. Trying something new, it seems, is not the sole prerogative of the younger generation either. Many respondents claim to have indulged in some "free love" or dabbled in "swinging". Forty-plus men were the greatest enthusiasts of fourth-decade love with 36 per cent claiming sex was "better than ever". In an interesting twist, though, only 11 per cent of women said they felt the same way. Most attractive men in their 40s 1 - George Clooney (aged 43) 2 - Brad Pitt (41) 3 - Johnny Depp (41) 4 - Mel Gibson (49) 5 - Tom Cruise (42) 6 - Clive Owen (40) 7 - Nicolas Cage (41) 8 - Gary Lineker (44) 9 - Simon Le Bon (46) 10 - Gary Oldman (46) Most attractive women in their 40s 1 - Sandra Bullock (40) 2 - Teri Hatcher (40) 3 - Michelle Pfeiffer (46) 4 - Sharon Stone (46) 5 - Courteney Cox-Arquette (40) 6 - Sheryl Crow (42) 7 - Andie McDowell (46) 8 - Heather Locklear (43) 9 - Geena Davis (49) 10 - Darryl Hannah (44).
  • http://canoe.ca/JamMovies/jan29_erika-sun.html Cheating does pay By LOUIS B. HOBSON -- Calgary Sun Erika Christensen is the first to admit her life is pretty good. She just doesn't want people to think it's perfect. "Trust me, I'm not complaining, but if my life were perfect there would be nothing for me to strive for and I have so many goals," says Christensen whose films include Traffic, Swimfan and The Banger Sisters. She says the name of her production company, Endless Entertainment, says it all. "I want to produce, write and maybe even direct. I have stories I want to tell that I haven't been given the opportunity to tell." Christensen, 21, has had to put those plans on hold in order to promote The Perfect Score, the youth heist drama that opens Jan. 30. She plays Anna, a shy overachiever who daydreams through her Scholastic Aptitude Test, jeopardizing her chances of being accepted into a college or university. She teams up with six of her classmates to sneak into an office to steal the questions to the next sitting of the SATs in her school. "College and university aren't on my immediate horizon, though at some point I would like to take some college classes," says Christensen. In her research for The Perfect Score, Christensen was amazed at "what a traumatic experience taking the SATs is for so many students. It's one of the reasons our film hits such a nerve and is generating such excitement." Though she's never taken the SATs, Christensen has an idea of the tension and apprehension involved. "I saw these tests as the equivalent of a really big audition and I've had my share of those. Your stomach is in knots. "I can understand how Anna could self-destruct." Christensen recalled how, in her early teens, she dreaded any audition that required her to be sexy. "I'd read these s and knew the producers and directors wanted a certain attitude and I just didn't feel comfortable giving them what was expected. "It would upset me and I know I didn't give a good audition." It was not until she was in her late teens and actually felt sexy that Christensen was able to get over the audition. Christensen was born in Seattle, but was barely four when her family moved to L.A. When she was 12, she told her parents she wanted to be an actress. "My parents were very good. They didn't try to dissuade me, but they said we should put a time limit on my plans." That same year, she surprised everyone by getting a major commercial and a spot in Michael Jackson's Childhood video. "I loved singing and dancing, but I didn't get to do either in Childhood. I just got to sit in a flying boat. "I never got to meet Michael. He wasn't there for our scenes, but he sent me an autographed picture with a thank-you note." Casting agents caught the commercial and the video and Christensen was quickly cast in episodes of such series as Frasier, The Practice, Third Rock from the Sun, Touched by an Angel and The Geena Davis Show. "These were all wonderful experiences and very important for me as an actor. Having been on so many sitcom sets at the beginning of my career, I'm pretty certain I'm not suited to be in a TV series. I did a lot of comedy on TV, but most of my film roles have been more dramatic and I think that's where my preference lies." The Perfect Score was filmed last year in Vancouver. "I loved Vancouver and the surrounding area. It helped with the bonding that happened with the cast. "We went hiking and white-water rafting together and we went to a lot of the clubs. We did things as a group and we felt so comfortable with each other we'd sit around for hours discussing everything from music to politics and religion." From Sunny Oz, Rick :) Proud Keeper of the talented & beautiful Halle Berry.

HOBSON -- Calgary Sun Inconceivable as it may seem, back in 1990 Ridley Scott didn't think Brad Pitt was sexy enough to play the drifter in Thelma & Louise. Scott still wasn't convinced when we interviewed him at the junket and he made it clear Pitt was not his first or even second choice for the role. You should have seen poor Brad's face when a callous journalist told him what Scott had said. It took almost 10 years but I finally found out how Pitt got the role that turned him into a sex symbol and superstar. When I was talking to Geena Davis for Stuart Little, I recalled what Scott had said about Pitt and she laughed knowingly insisting she was the one who twisted Scott's arm. William Baldwin was originally cast in the role but he left the project to star opposite Kurt Russell in Backdraft. Scott apparently narrowed the replacement field to five young actors and asked Davis to read with them. "I knew from the second Brad walked in the room he was going to be a huge star," recalled Davis adding she was "so taken by his smile and his sexy swagger that I forgot my lines. "None of the other guys came anywhere near doing that for me." Davis says she walked into the meeting where Scott and four other (male) producers were "discussing the attributes of the young actors. It was so surreal. "I finally said: 'Doesn't anyone want my opinion? Doesn't anyone want a woman's opinion? Take the blond one.' " From Sunny Oz, Rick :) Proud Keeper of the talented & beautiful Halle Berry.

  • http://www.sanluisobispo.com/mld/sanluisobispo/entertainment/movies/10105397 .htm Dig at Sarandon sums up the plight of many middle-aged actresses BY JAMI BERNARD New York Daily News In humor, there is often truth. So let's examine the cruel joke from the all-marionette "Team America: World Police," which satirizes Susan Sarandon, 58, as an actress whose talent is dwindling as she ages. Ouch! It's not unheard-of for people to lose their fire as the years creep by. Has it happened to Sarandon? First consider that older actresses have a hard time of it. If you remember Bette Davis and Joan Crawford in their horror-movie humiliations of the `60s, perhaps you'll forgive Sarandon for "Rugrats 2." Steady work isn't necessarily memorable work. Other actresses have faded away or disappeared. Annette Bening, 46, only recently returned from a child-raising hiatus to star in "Being Julia," about an older actress who trumps an "All About Eve"-like newcomer. Bening's movie says talent marinates over time. There's marinade, and then there's rust. An ill-advised comeback vehicle can cause a hit-and-run, as in "Taxi," in which Ann-Margret, 63, plays a drunk. Where are the actresses of yesteryear? Last we heard of Geena Davis, 48, she had taken up Olympic archery. (Okay, she was also in the "Stuart Little" movies.) She was sunk by the pirate movie "Cutthroat Island" and has walked a lonely plank ever since. Debra Winger, 49, stomped off the bandwagon nearly a decade ago, returning in 2001 for "Big Bad Love" (emphasis on "bad"). She is now better known for inspiring "Searching for Debra Winger," Rosanna Arquette's questing 2002 documentary about the plight of actresses over 40 in an industry that values youth and the Y chromosome. Sarandon has stayed visible, but some of her choices have been peculiar since the glory days of "Thelma and Louise" (1991) and "Dead Man Walking" (1995). Her highest-profile movie since then has been "Stepmom." In this melodrama, her character dies nobly (cough! cough!) of a dread disease, which clears the way for Julia Roberts' character. (It takes the opposite tack to "Being Julia.") Sarandon has two movies this fall: "Alfie" and "Shall We Dance?," both sensible choices. But they're no "Vera Drake," a movie that will undoubtedly bring British actress Imelda Staunton, 48, an Oscar nomination for playing a woman in her 50s. Staunton was so good that writer-director Mike Leigh named his untitled project after her character. Granted, "Vera Drake" is a once-in-a-lifetime plum. But not all actresses can count on a director like Leigh to come along. And they can't all hope for the kind of European sensibility that enables older actresses - like Isabelle Huppert, 51, Fanny Ardant, 55, and Charlotte Rampling, 59 - to thrive. If middle-aged American actresses want to stay viable, they've got to get big roles in small movies, or decent roles in big ones. Kim Basinger, 50, got a second wind with the summer movie "Cellular," but she was rarely onscreen with youthful co-star Chris Evans. "Cellular" played like two movies in one, an increasingly common ploy to attract a mixed-generation audience. (The female draw in "Shall We Dance?" is not Sarandon, who plays Richard Gere's oblivious wife, but Jennifer Lopez, who plays his hot mambo instructor.) The joke in "Team America" is more pointed. Is the problem that Sarandon is choosing unwisely by making films like the cringe-inducing "The Banger Sisters," co-starring with Goldie Hawn (now 58)? Or has acting become merely a paycheck for her? Did "Rugrats 2" do her in? Our best guess - the kindest, anyway - is that there's a tipping point, after which mediocre roles and competing priorities lead to a lessening of effort over time. And you know what that means - jokes at one's expense made by marionettes. From Sunny Oz, Rick :) Proud Keeper of the talented & beautiful Halle Berry. ---

To be blunt, the problem is that studios won't make a movie that stars a female that an 18 year old boy wouldn't masterbate to. Spunk equals sequel.

  • This leggy, square-jawed ex-model made her feature debut as a lingerie-clad soap star in Tootsie (1982), displaying the coltish sexiness that, along with her natural warmth and good humor, has infused her later characterizations. Her facility for comedy, aptly demonstrated in Beetlejuice (1988) and Quick Change (1990), was recognized by her peers W_hen they voted her a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her turn as a slightly batty, exuberant dog trainer in The Accidental Tourist (1988). (She deliberately lost weight to play the role, remembering author Anne Tyler's description of her character as chickenlegged.) Davis's ripe, earthy performance as a fugitive housewife turned bandit in Thelma & Louise (1991, with Susan Sarandon) earned her a Best Actress Oscar nomination. She headed a marvelous ensemble cast in Penny Marshall's A League of Their Own (1992, about an allgirl baseball team in the 1940s) and costarred with Dustin Hoffman and Andy Garcia in Hero that same year. She then affected a New York accent and persona for Angie (1994). She is divorced from actor Jeff Goldblum, with whom she starred in Transylvania 6-5000 (1985), The Fly (1986), and Earth Girls Are Easy (1989). She also appeared on the TV sitcoms "Buffalo Bill" (1983-84) and "Sara" (1985, in the leading role). She married director Renny Harlin in 1993; they jointly produced her movie Speechless (1994), and he directed her in the pirate adventure Cutthroat Island (1995).
