Girls Reviews, Interviews & More
Bradley Cooper is a very busy man. He's set to star in David O. Russell's next project, and has also been cast in Cameron Crowe's upcoming (and still untitled) film. But that's not stopping him from saving Jane Got A Gun. The western project has gone through a lot of changes this past month; Jude Law was the latest to quit the project. But word is Cooper is stepping to save the day....
The second season finale of Girls felt much like a romantic comedy. But there were no weddings or fancy parties this time. Instead, the men of the show performed grand gestures of love and former couples reunited, while one broke up. After a dark sophomore season, "Together" was the light at the end of the tunnel we were all yearning for.
Last night's episode of Girls wasn't for the faint of heart. Lena Dunham may have been dubbed the new Woody Allen, but "On All Fours" had the dark tone of a David Lynch film. Hannah has hit a new low. She's in such a messed up frame of mind that she makes the cast from Girl, Interrupted seem OK. Sadly, she's not the only one who's about...
Last night, Girls revealed some juicy information. "It's Back" roped in Hannah's parents, who highlighted a surprising detail about her life. Meanwhile Marnie, who's still dressing like a magician's assistant, revealed her true passion.
The relationship between Hannah and Jessa is rarely explored on Girls. It's unfortunate because Lena Dunham and Jemima Kirke have vibrant chemistry and their onscreen friendship is unreserved. Last night's episode "Video Games" was set in the country; Hannah and Jessa get away from the bustling city and ex-husbands like Thomas-John.
Alex Karpovsky is more than just Ray from HBO's Girls. He's a multi-talented filmmaker who can write, direct, produce and act. This week, he has two features hitting Video On Demand: Rubberneck and Red Flag. The former centers on a research scientist named Paul, who's obsession with a co-worker...
Once again, Girls has shifted its focus. "Boys" explored the funny and complex lives of the males on the show, specifically Ray and Adam's. They bonded over women, dogs and their own "weird looks." It was one of the strangest bromances we've ever seen on TV -- and that's saying something.
At one point during last night's Girls, Hannah Horvath said, mid-makeout, "I am so confused." That's exactly what "One Man's Trash" was--confusing. Once again, Lena Dunham focused on her character and ignored the rest of the marvelous cast. Patrick Wilson guest starred as Hannah's latest love interest, but even he couldn't keep us from missing Shoshanna's quirk.
It's been said that HBO's Girls is like nothing else on TV. Last night's "It's A Shame About Ray" lived up to the hype as the series' best episode yet. The emotion and reality of unstable 20-somethings was beautifully executed. Beautifully. If you're still mumbling that Lena Dunham is a talentless rich girl, you need to stop. Admit it, she has a special knack...
In Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw wrote a column about her personal experiences with men. She really put herself out there, but most of her "crazier" articles (like those about threesomes and enhancement drugs) came from her friends. In last night's Girls episode, oddly titled "Bad Friend," Hannah scores a freelancing writing gig at JazzHate, an online website...
Girls has returned more fearless than ever. Lena Dunham promised that if you didn't like the first season, you were definitely going to hate the second one. And now we're beginning to see why. The sex is more raw (like we said in last week's episode), but the characters also seem to be more self-involved than ever--in "I Get Ideas," Hannah is delusional about her...
Last night, Girls made a triumphant return to television. At the 70th Annual Golden Globes, Lena Dunham beat veteran comediennes Tina Fey and Amy Poehler for Best Actress in a TV Comedy or Musical. Plus, it was awarded Best Comedy Series over more popular shows like Modern Family and The Big Bang Theory. But besides that, Girls delivered the goods in its...
Before Guillermo Del Toro's Pacific Rim hits theaters next summer, he'll unleash Mama, a horror film by first-time feature director Andres Muschietti. The film is actually based on a short Muschietti wrote and directed, which impressed Del Toro so much that he decided to take the young filmmaker under his wing. Below you can watch Del Toro introduce the short...
The year's almost over and our DVRs are filled to capacity. Who knew so many shows would pique our interest? During the annual upfronts, we weren't impressed with most of the series orders. Everything was either too much, too little, or just plain boring. But once they premiered, we were pleasantly surprised. Somehow a superhero with no superpowers works. The millionth incarnation of a famous...
When it comes to Must-See TV, 2012 brought it! The medium upped the ante with shocking deaths, surprise marriages and a wicked acid trip. There were plenty of watercooler moments that covered Hollywood and politics (we're looking at you Clint Eastwood). ScreenCrave's selected the top 10 that kept us buzzing days after their debut.
It looks like we’re getting some of the last of the big summer movies this week in the hopes of making some holiday coin. This week Christopher Nolan joins the Criterion Collection, one of TV’s most talked about show hits disc, one of the year’s biggest comedies, and one of its most successful old school oddities street.
Nicolas Winding Refn's next feature will star Denzel Washington as a former government spy. How great is that? The Drive director will helm The Equalizer, a lose adaptation of the 1980's TV show of the same name. Also, for those of you who've been having Girls withdrawals since the first season ended in June, we've...
It was just a matter of time before Downton Abbey got totally and completely Americanized. NBC has hired the show's creator Julian Fellower to create an American drama about the super duper rich of 19th century New York. Also, the trailer for Roman Coppola's A Glimpse Inside The Mind Of Charles Swan III hit the web today. The...
Thanksgiving is nearly here, and there are a lot of things to be grateful for in the world of movies and television. We all like to poke fun at Hollywood for some of the crappy movies they invest in, and also some of the unfunny comedies that are still airing on TV, but the truth is we love this stuff. It's why we write about it. Thanksgiving is about reflecting and giving thanks, so...
Normally, screenwriters don't like to spill too many details about the scripts they're writing. But Aaron Sorkin is not your normal screenwriter. The man revealed tons of details about his Steve Jobs biopic, including when it'll take place, how many scenes there will be, and how the film will be shot. Also, the Admission trailer, starring Tina Fey and Paul Rudd was...
