Sundance Review: Ghosts
Filed under: Drama », Independent », Sundance », Theatrical Reviews », Cinematical Indie »
Nick Broomfield is well known for his documentary films like Kurt and Courtney, Heidi Fleiss: Hollywood Madam, and Fetishes, but this is his first time working with a script on a narrative film. At least, that's what he'd like to have you believe. He told us during the Q&A that he had previously made a scripted film, but that it was, "such shit, and no one ever saw it." Thankfully, Ghosts was extremely compelling and has hopefully encouraged him to make more scripted films.
While this isn't a documentary film, Broomfield worked with what he knew and this movie is filmed very documentary-style. The cameras are mostly handheld, and at times subtitles will pop up at the bottom of the screen with information like: "These workers typically make £30 per month" and so on. It isn't jarring enough to take you out of the story, but what it cleverly manages to do is make you feel like you're watching a documentary subject at times.
Tom Sizemore gets another shot, whether he deserves it or not
Filed under: Casting », RumorMonger », Celebrities and Controversy »
Tom Sizemore is like a freaking cat
with nine lives. He was convicted for harassing, annoying and physically abusing Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss, he's
currently fighting a conviction for violating a drug-use order following a possesion charge and has spent the last two
years in and out of court on two different cases, and he said last year he was flat broke after shelling out for all
his legal fees. Then he became the father of twins. Oh, and a bunch of sex tapes he made by hiding videocameras
around his house (ewwwww) were supposedly stolen and started turning up on the internet after he was diagnosed as being sexually insatiable.
In spite of all that, the man has five current films up on IMDB, and now IMDB reports he's going to star in Furnace, a film about a haunted prison, and upcoming indie flick Toxic, opposite Bai Ling and rapper Master P. It's hard to say how accurate that information is though - an IMDB search for Furnace turns up zip, and Toxic doesn't list Sizemore, Bai Ling, OR Master P in its credits, so maybe someone at IMDB was writing stories after partying all night or something, or just making stuff up at random to see who wouldn't catch it. At any rate, Sizemore is definitely listed for five films, so let's see...use lots of drugs, beat up women, hide video cameras around your house and film yourself having sex with lots of women, and you'll get rewarded in Hollywood with a slew of new films to fatten your bank account. How does that work, exactly?
