Kevin Macdonald‘s Black Sea, which hits U.S. theaters this week, features top-notch acting and, like the submarine, is air-tight, but music is also another highly effective component to the thrilling story. In addition to pulse-pounding sounds and pensive themes, British composer Ilan Eshkeri also adds a thick layer of humanity to the story about about greed, hard metals and icy depths. Best known for his film scores to Stardust, The Young Victoria and Kick-Ass, as well as his collaborations with recording artists and his concert work Eshkeri’s career is notable for its diversity; recently Eshkeri scored Still Alice starring Julianne Moore, Alec Baldwin and Kristen Stewart, 47 Ronin starring Keanu…

Video Interview…Director Kevin Macdonald on the Intensity and Authenticity of ‘Black Sea’
Kevin Macdonald (The Last King of Scotland) takes the helm for Focus Features’ ultra-tense submarine thriller Black Sea. Part heist film, part white-knuckle thrill ride, Kevin’s film is as engaging as it is claustrophobic. We got to sit with Macdonald to talk about the story and his experiences shooting the film. Now one thing to note, before every interview there’s always a little down time during the tech check. So I decided to drop an impromptu Russian accent on the unsuspecting director when the camera crew were adjusting the curtains behind him. Not sure it will help me obtain a part in Black Sea 2, but it sure got a…

Interview…Composer Reinhold Heil Discusses Scoring Helix for Syfy
Reinhold Heil is a German-born, L.A.-based Golden Globe nominated film and television composer. Prior to Reinhold’s career as a film composer, he was well known throughout Germany and Europe for his monster synth chops. At 21, he became a fixture in the Berlin music scene as the keyboardist of a popular jazz funk fusion band, marrying jazz, rock, and electronica into a sound all his own.

Ohhh, Look…’Mortdecai’ Behind-the-Scenes Video
January and February get a bad rap for being the two months when movie studios quietly release films they have little faith in. Well, as you’ll see with Kevin Macdonald’s upcoming Black Sea, the top of the year is not an all out schlockfest. There are some quality gems to be found and, from the looks of the trailers, we’re really hoping that Mortdecai is one of those diamonds in the rough. The film opens next week (moved from the previously announced February date) and we have a new featurette to help celebrate its release. Check out the behind-the-scenes video with the all-star cast, and see what Johnny Depp and company have…

G-S-T Review…Virunga
To start this off, and put things in context, it’s probably best to steal a line from Edward Zwick’s Blood Diamond, “Throughout the history of Africa, whenever a substance of value it is found, the locals die in great number and in misery”. What makes the story of Virunga National Park so disheartening, and yet engaging, is that the events are so current that most of it happened in real time. And things don’t get better once the credits roll. The park is, and has been, in a state of constant conflict. Virunga is home to some of the few hundred remaining mountain gorillas left in the world. They are…

G-S-T Review…Finding Vivian Maier
Some people get one shot at greatness. If you happen to be as lucky as Vivian Maier however, one of the 20th century’s greatest street photographers, you can get 100,000 of them. The late Ms. Maier, a mysterious nanny with a passion for observing and capturing people at the most banal points in their day, is the subject of this amazing documentary. One of the many bizarre, yet dazzling facts in this eclectic woman’s life is that her work went almost entirely unseen, even by Maier herself. Finding Vivian Maier is a compelling story of discovery that really began as a fluke (you really need to check out the trailer below)…
