‘Art’ or ‘Bullsh*t’? Watch the Trailer For Sundance Lightning Rod The Woman

Last January, when director Lucky McKee debuted his latest horror pic, The Woman (about a family man who traps and imprisons a feral lady he finds in the woods) at the Sundance Film Festival , he got quite the audience reaction; one moviegoer fainted during the film’s brutal denouement, and another stood up at the post-film Q&A to berate McKee over the film’s value. Today, we’ve got the first trailer for the controversial pic; watch it and decide — does The Woman appear to be a work of “art” or “bullshit”?

REVIEW: Great Title, Cool Idea, But Cowboys and Aliens Crash-Lands

The B-movie marquee title of Cowboys and Aliens suggests a picture that’s more irreverent, imaginative, and fun than the turgid movie that stands behind it. Rather than goosing the Western and sci-fi genres into the ring for a showdown, Jon Favreau’s follow-up to the Iron Man franchise takes a pretty radical structural shortcut: Replace the Indians in a classic, mix-’em-up Western with jacked-up, gold-greedy aliens. What’s most disappointing about the raucous but ultimately cumbersome result is the feeling — which only progresses as the improbable posse at the center of the film closes in on its intergalactic enemy — that Cowboys and Aliens may just as easily have been Cowboys and Zombies , or Werewolves , or Wall Street Time Travelers Venturing into the Past for Capital .

Paz de la Huerta Making Directorial Debut with Red Shoes-esque Film

Big news for Paz de la Huerta fans: the frequently naked Boardwalk Empire siren and upcoming Nurse 3D lead is currently directing her first film. She told the Observer , “It’s my version of The Red Shoes …[It’s] about a woman who’s unique, and lives in a small village, and is ostracized for being different, for being talented, and then she makes a horrible mistake and because the people in the village are so — you know — jealous of her, they don’t forgive her…and we are all human, you know. And we all suffer.” Preach, Paz, preach. Little else is known about the project, in which de la Huerta also stars. [ Observer via Vulture ]
