    G-S-T Review…Drafthouse Films’ The Keeping Room

    Simply stated in the title cards of ​Daniel Barber‘s bleak and understated narrative, “War is cruelty“​. And at the start of ​his film, ​Barber spends little time getting to the needless and hateful violence of people all but removed from morals, and the gravity of their actions. Hardships and loneliness for women abound, and The Keeping Room is but a small sampling of how vulnerable wives, daughters, and the like can be with a war on. ​Yet these women are hard and driven when their lives are at stake. There will always be pain and misery on the battlefield, but the same hardships can spill over and affect those left to…

    G-S-T Review…I Origins

    What if you were living your life entirely unaware that a whole other world existed in tandem with your own? It’s not The Matrix but it’s an equally heady concept and very thought provoking question like that which Mike Cahill (writer/director Another Earth) asks of the audience. Yet that’s just the beginning of the topics he questions and tires to answer while taking the audience along on his intellectual quest. I Origins, to put it simply, is a sly sci-fi picture that is as fascinating as it is simplistic. Yet it is the multiple rabbit holes and subjects broached which makes the concept of the film so thought provoking. A…

    Video Interview…’I Origins’ Actor Michael Pitt and Writer/Director Mike Cahill

    In this interview we sit with actor Michael Pitt (Boardwalk Empire) and writer/director Mike Cahill (Another Earth) to talk about Fox Searchlight’s complex and mind-blowing film I Origins. A sly sci-fi picture, one that’s more idea driven than effects driven, it explores ideas of science, religion and is bound to start up conversations and discussions no matter which side of the fence you put your faith. Also, these guys are a bucket of laughs. Enjoy our time with Michael and Mike, otherwise known as (for the purposes of our session) “Mickey Blue Eyes” and “Dr. Cahill“. And when you see I Origins, make sure you stick around after the credits……

    G-S-T Review…The East

    Hot off the success of Sound of My Voice Zal Batmanglij and his partner in crime Brit Marling take their focused engaging narrative/shooting style and apply it to The East, a throwback to the classic 70’s style thrillers. The East follows Sarah (Brit Marling), an operative for an elite private intelligence firm whose first assignment is to infiltrate this eco-terrorism cell known as “The East”. Their plan is to attack guilty parties (companies who are responsible for oil spills, selling untested pharmaceuticals, toxic dumping, etc.) and their latest string of “jams” is to give these high and mighty CEO’s a taste of their bad medicine by bringing these crimes to light. Over the…

    Sweet Trailer…'The Company You Keep'

    A few months back we posted the festival trailer for Robert Redford‘s The Company You Keep prior to its showing at TIFF. It got mixed reviews but managed to keep pace and handle the top drawer acting talent pretty well we hear. Yahoo movies has released the official theatrical trailer and it gives a little more of the plot while hints at the tension in this politically charged chase themed film…enjoy! The Company You Keep  follows a single father/lawyer in upstate New York whose upper-middle class life is shattered when his past as a radical activist member of the Weather Underground is revealed and he is accused of having been the…

    G-S-T Trailer Round-Up: Upside Dunst, Inside Oscar Isaac, Imperiled Capitals and Brit Marling Just Because We Love Her So

    If you’ve had a rough week and you feel like you’re free-floating through life, let me pull you back down to Earth with a brand-new collection of freshly-released trailers– starting with Upside Down, a movie which I’m equally resistant to on intellectual and gastrointestinal grounds. Seriously, watch this clip and tell me it didn’t make you at least a little queasy; then consider that you watched it on your computer or random mobile device instead of a multiplex screen. Maybe the physical space of the theater will acclimate me to the topsy turviness inherent in the film’s conceit, or maybe I’ll throw up all over myself. The cogent point here is…

    Sweet Trailer…Robert Redford's ‘The Company You Keep’

    Last month we posted the first promo images from Robert Redford‘s upcoming film The Company You Keep. Well hot off Lawless (check out our review here) Shia LaBeouf may continue to impress us as a capable thespian and not be the man-faced boy running from autonomous robots. In the film, Jim Grant (Redford) is a widowed single father and attorney living in Albany who was once a member of the activist/terrorist organization “the Weather Underground”. Wanted for robbery and the murder of a security guard, Jim has been in hiding for more than thirty years. When another former Weatherman (Susan Sarandon) turns herself in to the FBI, aggressive young journalist Ben Shepard…
