Sweepstakes Round-up - Win signed movie stuff from Twilight New Moon, Basterds, District 9 & More
Posted by Dave on Friday, September 25, 2009
The guys at TheSubStream give some stellar filmmaking advice with some quirky and practical tutorial videos. They also shot a huge collection of updates around the Midnight Madness events at TIFF.
While catching up on their Toronto-hilarity, I caught the “Watch This, Instead” review of ‘Inglourious Basterds’. Sure the movie has been out for a lil while now but I felt compelled to share this since host Mike articulates what I’ve tried to say about this film since watching it.
In brief: There is *something more* here than the usual set dialog pieces, Mexican stand-offs and sudden bursts of violence - it isn’t a mockumentary and it’s not a re-enacted period piece and it’s not mad-cap caper … but it’s a little of each and more … with handful of other spices thrown in. It’s a movie about movies, remixed with itself and reflected through a mirror … A movie that will get better with subsequent viewings too I suspect.
Be sure to subscribe to TheSubStream’s Youtube channel and check out their new site but mostly hear Mike’s insightful wisdom - including his opinion on which of Tarantino’s film is his masterpiece - delivered with just the right dose of pretension.

Movie: ‘Inglourious Basterds‘
Grade: Borderline B/B- (3 out of 4 stars)
![]()
‘Inglourious Basterds‘ is not a movie. Well, I guess I’m wrong there. Since it is shown in theaters nationwide and has a long running time, you can call it a movie. It is not conventional, even, or ingenious enough to stand on its own. That’s not to say it isn’t good or even great at times. What I mean to say is that “Inglourious Basterds” is a Tarantino movie that in essence is a series of shorts.
The film stars Brad Pitt as Lt. Aldo Raine, Christopher Waltz as the evil Col. Hans Landa known as ‘The Jew Hunter,’ and Mélanie Laurent as Shosanna. They are the stars and almost share equal screen time. Lt. Raine is the head of a special force of American troops, the Basterds, in World War II, in charge of wrecking havoc in Nazi occupied France.
Shosanna is an escaped Jew who runs a Parisian theater, which will be holding a Nazi film premiere Col. Landa tracks down Jews and terminates them, including Shosanna’s family, and he is in charge of theater security. The film follows these three characters and spins a web of a plot around the eventful film premiere, which the Basterds and Shosanna want to massacre. Along the way, mischief and mayhem ensue, in regular Tarantino style.

Here’s an introduction to the films we had an opportunity to cover, including press conferences and interviews with filmmakers and actors.
1) The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
The ‘Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus‘ is a fantastical morality tale, set in the present-day. Dr. Parnassus with his extraordinary traveling show “The Imaginarium” offers to members of the audience an irresistible opportunity to enter their universe of imaginations and wonders, by passing through a magical mirror. But Dr. Parnassus is cursed with a dark secret. An inveterate gambler, thousands of years ago he made a bet with the devil, Mr. Nick, in which he won immortality.
Centuries later, on meeting his one true love, Dr. Parnassus made another deal with the devil, trading his immortality for youth, on condition that when his daughter reached her 16th birthday, she would become the property of Mr. Nick. Now it is time to pay the price…
Watch the Press Conference with Terry Gilliam and Actors.
2) I Love you Phillip Morris
The true story of an ex-cop, ex-husband, ex-insurance swindler, ex-model prisoner and eternal lover of cellmate Philip Morris (Ewan McGregor). Steven Russell (Jim Carrey) will do anything to avoid being separated from the man of his dreams. Which means not rotting away in prison.
How far can one go for love? Quite far if you believe the incredible story of Steven Russell, an escape artist whose romanticism gets the better of him. Based on the book by Steven McVicker, this jail-house, dark romantic comedy.
Read the Ultimate Review by Phillip Nakov
3) Agora
As the Roman Empire declines, philosopher and astromomer Hypatia struggles to preserve scientific knowledge amid the clash of zealots in Alexandria, whose rising Christian population grows increasingly militant toward Jews and worshipers of the Egyptian gods.
Check out the Press Conference with Rachel Weisz and Director Alejandro Amenabar
4) Disney’s A Christmas Carol
Charles Dickens’ timeless tale of an old miser who must face Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet-to-Come, as they help to bring kindness to his otherwise cold heart. The Ghosts remind him of the man he used to be, the hard truth of what the world is today, and what will happen if he does not strive to be a better man.
Jim Carrey plays four separate roles in this updated version of A Christmas Carol. Carrey portrays Scrooge, as well as the three ghosts (Past, Present, and Yet-to-Come). His dynamic character roles keep the four characters as diverse as being played by four actors. Robert Zemeckis (Back to the Future trilogy) has his chance to dabble in telling a story through the windows of time, as he directs the long-awaited remake. In theaters Nov. 6, 2009.
Check out this sneak peak teaser footage of the movie, showing off some of the CGI and the Press Conference with Jim Carrey and Robert Zemeckis and some Stills of the Premiere.
5) Bright Star
“Bright Star”. The movie stars Australian Actress Abbie Cornish, Thomas Sangster and Paul Schneider. Not much is know about the movie yet, but you can check out some stuff at the Official Page.
London 1818 is the year, a secret love affair begins between 23 year old English poet, John Keats, and the girl next door, Fanny Brawne, an outspoken student of fashion. This unlikely pair started at odds; he thinking her a stylish minx, she unimpressed by literature in general. It was the illness of Keats’s younger brother that drew them together. Keats was touched by Fanny’s efforts to help and agreed to teach her poetry. By the time Fanny’s alarmed mother and Keats’s best friend Brown realised their attachment, the relationship had an unstoppable momentum. Intensely and helplessly absorbed in each other, the young lovers were swept into powerful new sensations, “I have the feeling as if I were dissolving”, Keats wrote to her. Together they rode a wave of romantic obsession that deepened as their troubles mounted. Only Keats’s illness proved insurmountable.
Take a look at this clip from the Press Conference in Cannes.
For everything Cannes Remember to check out the Cannes 2009 Sitelet!
Au revoir !
From Phillip, our man on the Crossiette ….
And that wraps it up for us and the whole MovieSet.com crew from here in the south of France. It has been a terrific, fast-paced and exciting two weeks. We’ve seen so many great movies, some not so great and some that we just wondered how they ever got made. There is no other festival like it in the world.
We thank the Festival de Cannes press accreditation committee for welcoming MovieSet.com so graciously at this year’s festival. We hope you have enjoyed our coverage of the 62nd Annual Festival de Cannes (Cannes Film Festival) as much as we enjoyed bringing it to you. The response has been tremendous from around the world and so till next year.

Sweepstakes Round-up - Win signed movie stuff from Twilight New Moon, Basterds, District 9 & More
Posted by grip on Friday, September 25, 2009
Welcome to another episode of ‘The Behind The Scenes Show’ with Eric Fell and Shaun Stewart. This week we take at three movies that premiered at the Cannes International Film Festival. First its Jim Carrey’s ‘A Christmas Carol‘, followed by a look at ‘Agora‘ and Quentin Tarantinos ‘Inglourious Basterds‘.
Charles Dickens’ timeless tale of an old miser who must face Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet-to-Come, as they help to bring kindness to his otherwise cold heart. The Ghosts remind him of the man he used to be, the hard truth of what the world is today, and what will happen if he does not strive to be a better man. Set around Christmas, the most joyous day of the year, Scrooge realizes the sharp contrast of his own personality. Jim Carrey plays four separate roles in this updated version of A Christmas Carol. Carrey portrays Scrooge, as well as the three ghosts (Past, Present, and Yet-to-Come). His dynamic character roles keep the four characters as diverse as being played by four actors. Robert Zemeckis (Back to the Future trilogy) has his chance
to dabble in telling a story through the windows of time, as he directs the long-awaited remake. In theaters Nov. 6, 2009.
A historical drama set in Roman Egypt, concerning a slave who turns to the rising tide of Christianity in the hopes of pursuing freedom while also falling in love with his master, the famous female philosophy professor and atheist Hypatia of Alexandria. Directed by Alejandro Amenábar and starringRachel Weisz and Max Minghella
Inglourious Basterds begins in German-occupied France, where Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent) witnesses the execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz). Shosanna narrowly escapes and flees to Paris, where she forges a new identity as the owner and operator of a cinema. Elsewhere in Europe, Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) organizes a group of Jewish soldiers to engage in targeted acts of retribution. Known to their enemy as “The Basterds,” Raine’s squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget Von Hammersmark (Diane Kruger) on a mission to take down the leaders of The Third Reich. Fates converge under a cinema marquee, where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own…
