The King’s Speech, The Fighter and The Social Network Lead Golden Globe Nominees

Posted on December 14, 2010 by | Comments Off on The King’s Speech, The Fighter and The Social Network Lead Golden Globe Nominees

It looks like the Hollywood Foreign Press missed their screening of True Grit . The Coen Brothers Oscar favorite was completely ignored during this morning’s nominations for the 68th Annual Golden Globe awards, meaning young Hailee Steinfeld won’t get to rub elbows with an inebriated Brendan Fraser come Jan. 16. Don’t be too upset, though: The HFPA found room to nominate Johnny Depp…twice! Also, Red . Click ahead for the nominees.

‘We All Have to Decide for Ourselves How Much Sin We Can Live With’: Boardwalk Empire Recapped

Posted on December 6, 2010 by | Comments Off on ‘We All Have to Decide for Ourselves How Much Sin We Can Live With’: Boardwalk Empire Recapped

Let it be known that Boardwalk Empire saved its best for last. After a first season of downs and slowly rising ups, “A Return to Normalcy” was anything but — a 60-minute high wire act that produced the best Empire moments of the season. If the finale is any indication of what we can expect from the HBO series during year two, expect many, many people to place Boardwalk Empire at the top of their Best Of lists in December 2011.

Attention 14-year-old boys of all ages: Paz de la Huerta returned to Boardwalk Empire last night after a brief absence, and if you were hoping that she’d end up naked and riding Michael Shannon’s Nelson Van Alden (while calling him “daddy”), you’re in luck! Because that happened. Let’s skip down the yellow brick road and assess the damage from “The Emerald City.”

Michael Shannon Talks Boardwalk Empire with Movieline

Posted on November 18, 2010 by | Comments Off on Michael Shannon Talks Boardwalk Empire with Movieline

HBO’ s sprawling Boardwalk Empire is a character actor aficionados dream come true; after all, the lead is Steve Buscemi. So it isn’t all that surprising to see someone like Michael Shannon killing scenes on a weekly basis. The very definition of “that guy” — having appeared in everything from Revolutionary Road to World Trade Center to Bad Boys II — Shannon stars as Agent Nelson Van Alden, a G-Man looking to keep both alcohol sales and his sexual desires bottled up during the era of Prohibition. The Oscar-nominated star rang up Movieline to discuss his role, the way Boardwalk Empire treats its ladies, and just what he made of that now infamous self-flagellation scene .

Last time Movieline caught up with Paul Giamatti, the actor was still getting his head around having played a version of himself in the curious indie Cold Souls . This year in Toronto, we reconvened to discuss a matter of similar weight and import: How a guy from Brooklyn came to play one of the most celebrated characters in recent Canadian literature — in a film adaptation all of Canada had its eyes on.

In a sweeping return to form, HBO#39;s new “Boardwalk Empire,” stars Steve Buscemi as Enoch “Nucky” Thompson a political fixer and half-gangster during Prohibition in Atlantic City. PILOT: “Boardwalk Empire” fittingly begins with a bootlegging run that we just know will end sour as 500 cases of Canadian Club (fresh from the distillery) is unloaded from a fisherman#39;s boat onto a truck. As the whiskey caravan makes it way through Hammonton, New Jersey (a billboard touts it as the blueberry cap

Boardwalk Empire Mob Movie Memory Lane: Public Enemies

Posted on September 20, 2010 by | Leave a comment

Whether or not Boardwalk Empire adds up to something greater than its stuffy (and expensive), period-perfect pilot remains to be seen. What doesn’t, however, is the fact that the new HBO series from Martin Scorsese and Terence Winter is forged in the pinky rings of other mafia movies. Ahead, take a stroll down memory lane with Movieline to see which of your favorites got their cut during the pilot.
