  1. 1/2: 'What Just Happened' is a Hollywood hoot

    Special to The Morning Call
    Say what you will about the guy, but nobody is better at playing Bruce Willis than Bruce Willis. As a portly, bearded, tantrum-throwing, chair-tossing version of the movie star ''Bruce Willis, Die Hard'' dude, he all but walks off with ''What Just...

  2. How Paramount let 'Twilight' get away

    Up until now, Summit Entertainment hasn't exactly set the movie world on fire. Run by veteran sales agent Patrick Wachsberger and former Paramount Vice Chairman Rob Friedman, the new indie distributor and finance company has struggled to prove that it can compete with the studio behemoths in the marketplace. Of its five releases, only one, the mixed martial arts film "Never Back Down," was a modest success, grossing about $25 million in the U.S. The company's most recent release, the teen comedy "Sex Drive," was a bomb, making barely $8 million after opening on nearly 2,500 screens.

  3. On the stump for Barack Obama until the final curtain

    In Democratic Hollywood these days it's not enough to be the hardest-working act in show business, you've also got to be engaged 24/7 in political fundraising, personal campaigning, robocalling, image advising, party planning (and attending) and surrogate appearances in towns without even a single screen, let alone a multiplex.

  6. Political parties need Hollywood's handouts

    Anyone who doubts, or resents, Hollywood's importance to American politics these days simply needs to watch where the candidates and their surrogates go when the going gets tough. The fact of the matter is that Hollywood is to both parties -- but particularly the Democrats -- what the Fed's discount window is to American banking: the place to go when you need big money fast.

  12. The knight who would be king

    THERE'S not a word in &quot;King Lear" about any "Queen Lear," but Ian McKellen takes the stage nonetheless wearing two wedding rings, ones few in the audience will notice. Sir Ian simply had an epiphany as he prepared to take on the great Shakespearean role for the first time -- that the aged king likely had had two wives, the first bearing him his eldest daughters, now so plotting and duplicitous, and the second giving him sweet Cordelia, the youngest. McKellen imagined a more detailed back story for that second marriage too, one that has the beloved second Queen Lear having died in childbirth, and now their girl is about the same age she was then, putting all these complex feelings in the recesses of the king's mind -- and Sir Ian's -- as they make their grand entrance and for 3 1/2 hours become one and the same tragic figure.
