Twilight Wedding, Smoldering Werewolf On Display in New Breaking Dawn Stills

You guys: The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 is exactly one month away , which means two things: Twi-hards, rest up those vocal chords, and everyone else, stock up on earplugs. Because come November 18, the shrieking will reach a fever pitch across the land. Summit sent out a batch of new images today to stoke the fan fire, which includes looks at the wedding, the happy couple, a dreamy Taylor Lautner glamour shot (” Abduction who? Let’s get back to Jacob Black,” his smoldering gaze screams), and some serious lumberjack skills.

The Best Director Feud That Never Was

Taking to Twitter on Sunday, Looper director Rian Johnson would have you believe he sought to bury the hatchet in a putative feud with Jason Reitman. The results are… vivid! “Just before sunrise I found Jason in a half shattered bathtub in a park outside of town. He was eating pork rinds and had obviously been crying and had carved what looked like a Golden Globe out of soap. He was in a dark place.” [ @rcjohnso via /film ]

VIDEO: Sean Penn Blasts Tea Party as ‘Get the N-Word Out of the White House’ Party

Love Sean Penn or loathe him, you have to at least admire any modern movie star harboring any degree of spontaneity or candor in an otherwise hypersensitive, overcalculated celebrity culture. (To say nothing of having the distinction of having been in both a Terrence Malick film and Scarlett Johansson’s pants at the same time; the man is nothing if not a tireless striver for the American Dream.) Penn’s latest flare-up occurred in the middle of an interview with CNN’ s Piers Morgan, to whom the two-time Oscar winner ranted about the prominence of the Tea Party — or, in Penn’s delectable neologic parlance, the “Get the N-Word Out of the White House” Party.

As noted earlier, Emily Browning was among the squad of young talent to storm this year’s Hamptons International Film Festival. The Australian actress best known for Hollywood efforts Lemony Snicket’s Series of Unfortunate Events and this year’s Sucker Punch dropped by this time around for something completely different: Sleeping Beauty , writer-director Julia Leigh’s disturbing dive into the realm of somnambulistic sex work.

At HIFF: Matthew Broderick and Alec Baldwin Reflect on Brando, Hughes, Career Misfires and More

Don’t let the audience hijinks fool you: This weekend’s chat between Matthew Broderick and Alec Baldwin at the Hamptons Film Festival gave the two old acting chums almost a full hour to catch up — often hilariously so, with Saturday’s ostensible tribute to Broderick generally resulting in a freewheeling gab session between the guys.

Movieline’s New Twitter Hero is… Ellen Barkin

Thank your lucky stars for Twitter, because the 140-character fun machine just acquainted us with an unforeseen side of Ellen Barkin — the trash-talkin’, fast-tweetin’, Bronx-lovin’ “Twitta bitch.” The 57-year-old Diner / Switch actress joined Twitter only a couple days ago, and she’s already established herself as its new empress. If you thought Carrie Fisher was a dynamo on Twitter, you haven’t seen anything yet. Dig these effin’ amazing tweets.
