WATCH: Kristen Stewart’s Come-Hither Invitation Sexes Up Fast-Moving ‘On The Road’ Trailer

If you’ve ever fantasized that Kristen Stewart invited you to bed by saying, “Hop in, water’s fine,” well, this is a trailer for your permanent collection. The actress and her Bohemian behavior in On The Road get prime placement — there’s even a quick glimpse of her talked-about double hand-job scene — along with co-stars Garrett Hedlund and Sam Riley , in this just-released trailer for Walter Salles adaptation of the Jack Kerouac novel.  Although the trio appears to get the most screen time, the fast-paced clip  does a good job of introducing most of the name cast members, including Kirsten Dunst , Viggo Mortensen, Amy Adams , Elisabeth Moss and Alice Braga.  The film gets a limited released on Dec. 21 if the world doesn’t end along with the Mayan calendar.  You can also head over to iTunes to download the trailer — for your permanent collection.

On the Road Clips: Kristen Stewart Drives, Kirsten Dunst Dances in First Extended Glimpses

I know, I know — to paraphrase a popular rejoinder to the overexposed, “How can I ever anticipate On the Road if it won’t go away?” Nevertheless, consider the two new clips released by IFC Films as complements to Brian’s coverage from Cannes , where the long-awaited Jack Kerouac adaptation premiered this morning. Via our video-devouring partners at ENTV , take a few minutes to enjoy Kristen Stewart’s aborted front-seat handy, Kirsten Dunst’s sweet Colorado slow-dance and Movieline favorite Sam Riley as the beneficiary of both. And if That’s not enough, hop over to our just-refreshed Cannes 2012 photo gallery for red-carpet pics. Read more of Movieline’s Cannes 2012 coverage here .

Here’s The First Trailer For On the Road

The first trailer for the lonnnng -awaited adaptation of On the Road is here — an international/market spot (the film doesn’t yet have US distribution) showcasing Jack Kerouac’s shambolic literary stylings and director Walter Salles’s ensemble including leads Sam Riley, Garrett Hedlund, Kristen Stewart and a kind of staggering supporting ensemble: Viggo Mortensen? Kirsten Dunst? Amy Adams? Terrence Howard? Steve Buscemi? Elisabeth Moss? You can’t Beat it! Honk. Sorry, it’s late. Anyway, fingers crossed this video isn’t yanked sooner than this post is published, but fair warning! And probably look for this to debut at Cannes in May. [via indieWIRE ]

What to Expect From Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol’s Wild IMAX Action Sequences

This December 16, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol premieres in IMAX five days in advance of its general release. Why exactly? Probably to encourage fans of the Tom Cruise franchise to see the picture in the large format director Brad Bird intended when he shot thirty minutes-worth of the fourth Ethan Hunt film in IMAX. To convince journalists that the large format is indeed worth higher ticket prices, an advance release date and a little early buzz, Paramount screened about 20 minutes worth of wild action sequences at the Rave 18 theater in Los Angeles last week. Ahead, the stomach-flipping details (and very mild spoilers).

REVIEW: Impressive Cast Mills About Listlessly in Dumb, Lumpy 13

Alfred Hitchcock and Cecil B. DeMille might have been able to successfully redo their own movies, but more recent auto-remakes, especially ones that find directors cranking out a U.S. version of their own foreign-language hit, have been a motley crew. The best, like Michael Haneke’s 2007 Funny Games and Takashi Shimizu’s The Grudge , tend to be merely functional enterprises that revisit what worked the first time around with added English-speaking and possibly more famous actors. But others highlight in a painfully clear way the compromises that so often come with working in Hollywood. Ole Bornedal’s wan Nightwatch lost the nasty edge of the Danish original and retained no other distinguishing characteristics, and George Sluizer’s 1993 The Vanishing ditched the finale of his 1988 Spoorloos , an uncompromisingly bleak and great ending, for a studio-friendly happy one that undoes everything toward which the first film built.

REVIEW: In Search of Fresh Style, Brighton Rock Loses its Soul

Graham Greene’s 1938 masterpiece Brighton Rock is an enduring curio of fiction: A literary pulp novel ahead of its time, a gangland allegory of sin and the cost of redemption, and perhaps most fascinating, a pre-WWII oracle anticipating the traumatic British century to come. It’s a prism through which all the harrowing perils of class strife, organized crime and romantic love bend and refract into Greene’s glowing white weave of language, which, when projected onto a screen, have yielded both an equally classic 1947 screen adaptation and now Rowan Joffe’s troubled updating.

First Look at Kristen Stewart and Garrett Hedlund in On the Road

Kristen Stewart has caught a lot of flack on the Internet lately, but that doesn’t mean Hollywood casting directors aren’t falling over themselves to meet with her for various high-profile projects. That might ruffle some feathers ( sorry, fanboys !), but to Stewart’s credit, she has been quite picky with her non- Twilight selections; you wouldn’t necessarily expect a teen queen to have films like Adventureland , Welcome to the Rileys and The Runaways on her resume. Stewart continues her star-shunning assault later this year in On the Road — opposite Garrett Hedlund (as Dean Moriarty) and Sam Riley (as Sal Paradise) — and the first stills from the Walter Salles film have arrived. Click ahead for a look, ya beatnik.

Weinsteins Drop Seven Figures on TIFF’s Dirty Girl

The second big deal of the Toronto Film Festival occurred today when the Weinstein Company acquired the road-trip flick Dirty Girl for a reported $3 million. Uh, wow. Abe Sylvia directed the ’80s-set film, starring Juno Temple as the title character who flees her high school (and possibly her bad reputation) with a gay classmate. Dwight Yoakam, Milla Jovovich and Willam H. Macy co-star; the purchase includes a theatrical-release guarantee, so save the shelf jokes for at least another six months if you don’t mind.
