Michel Gondry on Green Hornet, the Secret to Directing Jim Carrey and Why He Makes ‘Trash Movies’

Posted on January 12, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Michel Gondry, best known for directing cerebral, handmade films like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and The Science of Sleep , might at first seem peculiar as the director associated with the big-budget superhero movie The Green Hornet . Yet Gondry has been attached to The Green Hornet on and off since 1997, creating a long road for Gondry to complete what was supposed to be his first Hollywood film; stars including George Clooney, Jason Scott Lee, Greg Kinnear, Mark Wahlberg, Jet Li, Jake Gyllenhaal and Nicholas Cage were all at some point associated with The Green Hornet . Finally, it comes down to this weekend and Seth Rogen.

Edgar Wright Plays My Favorite Scene; Do You Feel Lucky?

Posted on January 12, 2011 by | Leave a comment

When filmmaker Edgar Wright returns to Los Angeles this weekend to curate his second guest programming run at the New Beverly Cinema , he’s bringing more of his favorite films to share. The first time Wright brought his encyclopedic film knowledge to the local institution back in 2007, his fortnight of cult and genre double features packed the house and kicked off a spate of popular guest programming series by the likes of Eli Roth, Joe Dante and Jason Reitman. Now Wright’s back to present over two weeks of double bills including paired screenings of Brazil & Delicatessen (Jan. 16-17), American Graffiti & Animal House (Jan. 20-21), Wild at Heart & True Romance (Jan. 26-27), and more – and it all begins with an already sold-out triple feature of Wright’s own Shaun of the Dead , Hot Fuzz , and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (Jan. 14-15).

REVIEW: Seth Rogen Barely Half a Hero in The Green Hornet

Posted on January 12, 2011 by | Leave a comment

The idea of Seth Rogen as the Green Hornet so inflaming the fanboy community is amusing, since that group’s 20/50 vision also had it tsking its disapproval about Michael Keaton as Batman and Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man (corrective hindsight brought them on board for the latter). But as with those previous strip-to-screen revivals, this new Hornet excited me; Seth Rogen as Britt Reid in a film directed by Michael Gondry sounded very promising.
