Had he not passed away on April 9 , famed director Sidney Lumet would have turned 87 years old on Saturday. The five-time Academy Award-nominee was responsible for some of the most indelible films from the last half-century, including 12 Angry Men , Network , Dog Day Afternoon , The Verdict and Running on Empty , to name just five. Lumet was remembered at the Los Angeles Film Festival this week, and if you didn’t get a chance to participate in that event, Movieline is here to provide a sounding board. In honor of what would have been Lumet’s birthday, celebrate the director’s career ahead.

Movie producers routinely say they’re about artistic integrity, but Metalwork Pictures’ Andrew Levitas finds himself in the unique position of actually being an artist himself, having come up through the New York City art scene as a heralded painter, sculptor, and photographer. So when he speaks of box office potential as being almost incidental to a film as work of art, he’s the rare producer who actually sounds genuinely unconcerned with financial returns.

Certain members of legendary NYC hip-hop group A Tribe Called Quest had voiced mixed reactions to Michael Rapaport ‘s incisive documentary Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest even before its Sundance debut and subsequent distribution deal. But Friday night in Hollywood, all save one of Tribe’s four members came out to support the film, sharing the emotional experience of watching their musical history — and the complex behind-the-scenes clashes that led to their disbanding — play out on screen.

Jennifer Aniston got her first tattoo on the inside of her right foot, and it reads “Norman,” her rep tells us. It is Aniston#39;s favorite word after all! Jennifer Aniston debuted some new ink in New York Friday. The 42-year-old got a little teary telling James Lipton that during a taping of Inside the Actors Studio on Thursday. Norman was her Welsh corgi-terrier mix, who died in May at 15 years old.

That sound you just heard was the entire Internet saying in unison, “Good job, Joel Courtney!” The adorable Super 8 star has just been cast as Tom Sawyer in Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn . Per Variety, the Jo Kastner-directed adaptation will shoot in Bulgaria instead of Missouri, which is… odd. Otherwise, mint! Courtney is also in talks for the supernatural thriller The Healer . Spooky, scary, etc. [ Variety ]

So there’s this animated Danish movie called The Great Bear that has been quietly making the festival rounds. I only today accidentally discovered the trailer, whose accompanying synopsis promises quite the story. But it’s the animation itself that has me wondering what kind of legend The Great Bear has in store for it.

In 1979, church leaders and even some normal people clamored over the content in Monty Python’s Life of Brian , an excellent movie about a guy named Brian Cohen who’s mistaken for the messiah. Opponents claimed the film mocked Christianity, and thus it was banned in several countries (but not the U.S., where it was the highest-grossing British import that year). Now, the BBC is bringing us Holy Flying Circus , a comic drama that chronicles Brian ‘s furor in a bizarre and Python-appropriate format. Puppets are involved.
