Latest Sarah Palin Doc to Theaters on Sept. 30

Nick Broomfield’s documentary Sarah Palin: You Betcha! , which premieres this week at the Toronto Film Festival, has made a domestic theatrical deal with Freestyle Releasing. The crowd-funded film is said to scrub away the sheen of the miserably received pro-Palin doc The Undefeated , trickling into limited release in New York and L.A. on Sept. 30 — not long after when the ex-governor’s long-rumored presidential bid would likely launch, if it launches at all. Intrigue! [ Deadline ]

Watch: Grace Kelly, Marlene Dietrich, Marilyn Monroe and Charlize Theron Co-Star in CG-Aided Dior Ad

The new Dior short film/luxury ad starring celebrity spokesmodel Charlize Theron makes a number of assumptions off the bat. First and foremost, that you’d believe screen icons Grace Kelly, Marlene Dietrich, and Marilyn Monroe would shill for any designer even in death, but more so?

Dragon Tattoo Tumblr Goes Behind the Scenes With Fincher and Co.

It’s the quotidian, almost invisible bits that matter most behind the camera on a movie set. Take the sliver of video newly available on a Tumblr called Mouth Taped Shut , by all appearances another bit of authorized viral marketing for The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo — this time featuring David Fincher directing Daniel Craig, Christopher Plummer extolling Fincher’s virtues (and leveling a not-so-prescient Oscar-season pledge) and snapshots from the production.

Bad Movies We Love: The Main Event

Since Warrior and Tom Hardy are planning to beat us up this weekend, I figured we’d counter their attack by revisiting the least gripping boxing movie of all time: The Main Event (a.k.a. “A Glove Story”). If flaxen, dimpled, Dancing with the Stars candidate Ryan O’N eal is your idea of a prizefighter and Barbra Streisand is your idea of his grimy promoter, then The Main Event is the pugilist saga for you. Otherwise? It’s a terrifying medley of boner jokes and Barbra costuming. Ready to watch the stars of What’s Up, Doc? threaten to pummel each other in front of a screaming crowd? Ding-ding!
