Your Prices Way Too High You Need To Cut It! RiRi Lacks Anti Sales In London

You Ain’t No Beyonce Bih: Ri Navy Fans Leave Rihanna Performing In Half Empty Stadium Once upon a time, Rihanna tweeted to Ciara, “Goodluck booking that stage you speak of.” After last night’s Anti show in London, it looks like Rihanna needs to focus on booking on own stage seeing as though she performed to a half-empty venue last night at Wembley Stadium.  You would think in a major city like London, Rih Navy would’ve packed out the place but according to her fans the place was only half full. See for yourself…   That look’s like an awful lot of empty seats. Maybe she should stick to booking smaller venues? Here’s what fans had to say:         One Beyonce fan even tweeted that she felt bad for Rihanna… Welp, maybe after the show she went out for some European humble pie? Images via Instagram/Splash

Moment of Truth: Director Daniel Kraus Shows America its Work Face

Welcome back to Moment of Truth, Movieline’s weekly spotlight on the best in nonfiction cinema. Today we hear from Daniel Kraus, whose superb Work Series gets a showcase this weekend in Chicago .

Hopefully you have checked out at least some of them by now — particularly the endlessly intriguing work of Chicago filmmaker Daniel Kraus. Since 2004, the documentarian has delivered three films chronicling ordinary Americans at their rather extraordinary jobs. Their tiles are self-explanatory and deceptively simple — Sheriff , Musician and Kraus’s latest, Professor . The films, meanwhile, are anything but.

Moment of Truth: Alex Gibney on Casino Jack (and the Rest of His Documentary Binge)

If you think you may have read a disproportionate amount of coverage here over the last few weeks about filmmaker Alex Gibney, you’re probably right. But it’s only because the Oscar-winning documentarian has a staggering number of films arriving on the scene at once: In addition to his three movies debuting at the ongoing Tribeca Film Festival, Gibney’s Casino Jack and the United States of Money opens tomorrow in limited release. Not even Werner Herzog can match than kind of productivity, though as Gibney told Movieline, it was kind of accidental for himself as well.

Moment of Truth: Burlesque Myths Shattered in Burly Q

Welcome back to Moment of Truth, Movieline’s weekly spotlight on the best in nonfiction cinema. This week we hear from Leslie Zemeckis, whose film Behind the Burly Q _opens Friday in NYC and May 7 in Los Angeles. The new burlesque documentary Behind the Burly Q began as sort of a happy accident for director Leslie Zemeckis. The endlessly fascinating (if mildly hyperactive ) results reflect something far more deliberate: A definitive glimpse at the lost era of popular stage shows combining musicians, comedy, acrobats and yes, a few underdressed ladies. Everyone who was anyone from the era — and who was still alive when Zemeckis came calling — appears in Burly Q , and their stories make for revelatory viewing. And not just because the pasties come off from time to time. either.

Moment of Truth: Michel Gondry Opens Up About His Thorn-y Doc Debut

Welcome back to Moment of Truth, Movieline’s weekly spotlight on the best in nonfiction cinema. This week we hear from Oscar-winner Michel Gondry, whose documentary Thorn in the Heart _opens Friday in limited release.- Michel Gondry is known to make warm, densely tricky and unfailingly personal films; one can even imagine him subverting the superhero genre with his forthcoming big-budget adaptation of The Green Hornet. But what might Gondry do with a documentary? His new film Thorn in the Heart delivers the answer, training his camera on his own family — his aunt Suzette in particular, whose decades of success as an educator are starkly contrasted against the more haunting pitfalls and woes of matrimony and motherhood. It’s an unsparing yet sensitive approach for the first-time docmaker, whose most probing inquiries are woven into animation and vintage home movies until a typically handmade Gondrian tapestry results. In the same candid spirit in which he dismissed Lady Gaga to Movieline a few weeks ago, Gondry he shared his take on nonfiction, grilling one’s own family and the thrill of confronting failure.
