Gift Guide: Go Way, Way Behind the Scenes of Taxi Driver

How can 35 years pass before a photographer’s voluminous archive of pictures and other historic data from one of the greatest American films ever made finds its way to the public? Why were you holding out on us, Steve Schapiro? And why does your damn Taxi Driver compendium — featuring vintage snapshots and recollections of Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese, Jodie Foster and the rest on the set — gotta have me robbing houses and turning tricks just to have its expensive hide under the tree by Christmas?

Julie Benz on No Ordinary Family and Her Gruesome Dexter Death

After Dexter creators brutally murdered Julie Benz’s angelic Rita last season, the Pittsburgh-born actress reincarnated herself on ABC’ s No Ordinary Family as a scientist with superhuman speed. When Benz phoned Movieline last week, she explained that her ability to keep picking herself up from one role and transition into the next was something that she learned during her sixteen-year ice skating career, where she competed on a national level before a stress fracture forced her off the rink and in front of cameras. Twenty years after her first role in George A. Romero’s horror film, Two Evil Eyes , the actress has not only been killed off in one of the most savage television murders of all time, but she lives to tell the tale — and run a six-second mile on-screen.

The Verge: No Ordinary Family’s Jimmy Bennett

The first time you probably saw 14-year-old actor Jimmy Bennett was when he was jumping out of a plummeting car in J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek as “Young James T. Kirk.” The funny thing about Bennett though is that he’s been an active member of Hollywood since his sixth birthday, appearing opposite such heavy hitters as Harrison Ford, Steve Carell, Bruce Willis, Ryan Reynolds and Eddie Murphy. How did you spend your childhood?

Krackoon Trailer: Because What the World Needs Now is a Crack-Addicted Raccoon Splatter Flick

In a world where everything from tires to mad cows can turn fiercely homicidal in the blink of an eye, it was always kind of comforting to think that raccoons always stopped just short of murder — that the worst we could expect from them was a nocturnal trashivore binge or some medium-grade campsite ravaging. Damn you, Krackoon , for snuffing out that comfort with your nightmare visions of crack-addled, gut-munching critters terrorizing the Bronx. Like we didn’t have enough problems with steroidal bedbugs .

4 Edgy Family Situations Tackled in Last Night’s Parenthood: ‘It’s a Braverman Tradition’

During last week’s Parenthood , Sarah Braverman put her brother in a difficult situation by flirting with his supervisor over chocolate pudding . As delicious as that conversation may have seemed to them, it was a rotten dessert for Adam. He dealt with the ignominy by passive aggressively storing his resentment, only unloading fits of white, middle-class rage on Sarah days later for no apparent reason. The valuable lessons continued last night with the episode, “I’m Cooler Than You Think,” in which no character proved that they were cooler than you think.

Toy Story 3 Hater Armond White Didn’t Like The Social Network Either

Armond White is nothing if not predictable . His negative review of The Social Network arrived today, complete with thoughts on how David Fincher’s film compares negatively to the C. Thomas Howell classic, Soul Man , and shots at Noah Baumbach. “As played by pale-skinned, curly-headed Jesse Eisenberg,” White writes, “Zuckerberg may be the most obnoxious movie protagonist Noah Baumbach didn’t write.” Well, at least he liked it better than Greenberg ?
