Rooney Mara Reviews, Interviews & More

Steven Soderbergh has talked about retirement, but that should come as no surprise. Since September of last year he's had three movies in the theaters and in February he'll have another, on top of which he's also working on his Liberace bio-pic.

Cloud Atlas appears to be this year's Inception as it's a big budget brainy sci-fi film. But, instead of traveling through different levels of dreams, this film follows the intertwining lives of various characters through their past, present and future. The cast is flooded with A-list actors including Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Jim Sturgess,...

David Fincher now believes in viral marketing! The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which will be hitting theaters just in time for Christmas, first had a bootleg trailer that sold Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara in the film with the sort of fast cutting one expects of Fincher.
