Zellweger iffy about playing Bridget Jones again
London, Jan 10 Oscar winning actress Renee
Zellweger is getting picky about playing Bridget Jones for
the third time.
In the third instalment of "Bridget Jones' Diary", an
older but none the wiser Bridget becomes pregnant.
Zellweger has put down certain ground roles for it.
Ananova.com quoted her as saying: "I don't know if I
would. It depends on so many factors. First, Helen would
have to ask me to come back, and then there has to be a
script that we can all agree on.
"It seems there is some kind of talk but it's not with the
people who make the movie or write the books."
But she isn't too worried about putting on weight for the
role.

weight on again. I've said it before, I like looking a
little more voluptuous."

the education while preparing for his new roles.

doing thorough research for his roles and has learnt
something new each time he has taken on a new role.
Contactmusic.com quoted him as saying: "Every movie I do -
like 'Gangs Of New York' and 'The Aviator' - is like
taking a college course on that subject matter, and each
time I've gotten involved with these movies it's been like
a giant tutorial.
"You have to be a detective and you have to investigate.
You have to be a historian in that regard, so, yeah, it's
like taking courses, which is great, 'cause I never went
to college."

Jolie feels closer to her adopted children
New York, Jan 10 Actress Angelina Jolie says
she feels differently towards each of her kids and is more
close to her adopted children because they have already
led a tough life.
Jolie has adopted two children, Maddox and Zahara, and has
also has a daughter with Brad Pitt called Shiloh.
Imdb.com quoted her as saying: "I think I feel so much
more for Mad and Zahara because they're survivors, they
came through so much. Shiloh seemed so privileged from the
moment she was born. I have less inclination to feel for
her. I met my other kids when they were six months old;
they came with personality.
"A newborn really is this... yes, a blob! But now she's
starting to have a personality. I'm conscious that I have
to make sure I don't ignore her needs just because I think
the others are more vulnerable."

never knew how to keep apartment locations safe, I was

learned a lot about cameras that way. That's how I started
in film."

haven't already got?' One of them said, 'Oh, I just want
to show he's relaxed.'
"I said, 'We know he's relaxed! How much more relaxed
could I possibly be? No, you just want to see my **** in
rehearsal. I'll show it to you now, shall I? We don't have
to show it in front of millions of people.'"

Cosmetics saved Ronnie 'Stones' marriage
London, Jan 9 The launching of a cosmetic line
saved Jo Wood's marriage to Rolling Stone member Ronnie
because it deflected her attention from his alcohol
addiction.
Jo devoted all her time to Jo Wood Organics instead of
complaining and whining about his drinking.
Contactmusic.com quoted her as saying: "I realised that my
family was growing up and that the time had come for me to
follow my own passions. Ronnie had been drinking quite a
bit around this time, and I found I was spending far too
much time worrying about him.
"Launching my own range has helped my marriage. Now, if
Ronnie has a drink, I'm not consumed with worry for days -
I'm too busy! At long last I have realised that I can't
take someone else's addictions on my shoulders. He
wouldn't want me to, anyway." |

DiCaprio denies political motivation of 'Blood Diamond'
London, Jan 9 Leonardo DiCaprio denies that he
took up his role in "Blood Diamond" because it had
political connotations.
DiCaprio is instead happy that the movie is raising
awareness about the controversial diamond industry. He is
happy that the issue of conflict diamonds has been brought
to the world's attention. Conflict diamonds are precious
stones sold to sponsor war, reports contactmusic.com.
He said: "I wouldn't hold that candle and say that's what
I did. First and foremost it's a great movie, but the
cherry of the cake is that it does say something about the
world we live in.
"To be honest, I'm surprised the studio made a movie like
this and I hope and pray that people will go see it.
Usually films with this kind of subject matter are on a
much different scale. I think any time anybody is educated
by a movie that's a great thing."

Cameron to make first feature since 'Titanic'
DPA
Los Angeles, Jan 9 (DPA) Filmmaker James Cameron is all
set to direct his first feature film since his
Oscar-winning blockbuster "Titanic" in 1997.
The science fiction epic "Avatar" will start filming in
April for a summer 2009 release, The Hollywood Reporter
said. With a budget of $200 million, the film will star
Australian newcomer Sam Worthington in a new digital 3D
format with a hybrid of live action and animation.
The movie will tell the story of Jack Sully, a wounded
ex-marine who is unwillingly sent to settle and exploit
the faraway planet of Pandora. He gets caught up in the
battle for survival by the planet's inhabitants, called
Na'vis, and falls in love with one of them.
"We think we're going to blow people away," Cameron said.
"We want to throw you to the back wall of the theatre. My
goal is to rekindle those crazy mystical moments my
generation felt when we first saw '2001: A Space Odyssey',
or the next generation's 'Star Wars'. It took me 10 years
to find something hard enough."
Cameron has made seven documentaries since "Titanic"
became the biggest blockbuster of all time in 1997,
winning 11 Oscars and earning $1.8 billion at the box
office worldwide. His other movies include "Aliens", "The
Abyss", "True Lies", and "The Terminator".

Canada mayor invites 'Guru' crew for world premiere

global premiere of "Guru". It will be India's first
mainstream international premiere in Canada.
"It's a pleasure to host the world premiere of 'Guru' in

Abhishek and Aishwarya, along with the producer Bobby Bedi
who chose to premiere this major film outside India. It is
an indication of the high regard Indian filmmakers have
for Toronto," said Miller.
"This is an opportunity to bring Indian cinema to a larger
appreciative audience and, at the same time, to further
develop economic, creative and personal ties between our
two countries," Miller added in a press release.

excited about the premiere in Canada.

'Guru' in Toronto, since it will be the first Indian
mainstream film to do so. This has been a landmark deal
between Canada and India, in the process making Canada an

film because his films has a certain sensibilities
attached, visually international and rich in content,"
said Padam Kumar, COO, Roger Nair production.

up for a glimpse of Abhishek and Aishwarya for the red
carpet premiere in true Hollywood style.
The film opens in theatres Canadawide Cineplex, AMC and

Hitler comedy opens to bad reviews, condemnation
DPA
Hamburg, Jan 12 (DPA) A slapstick comedy by a Jewish
filmmaker about Adolf Hitler has opened in Germany to a
chorus of bad reviews and condemnation by Jewish
leaders.
Barring a miracle, Swiss director Dani Levy's "Mein
Fuehrer" looks likely to be the biggest box office flop of
the year in a nation which for weeks has been embroiled in
pre-release debate over whether Germans should allow
themselves a good chuckle at Hitler's expense.
In a nation not known for self-deprecating humour, Levy's
film goes to great lengths to portray Hitler - and the
Germans - as being laughably ridiculous. Not surprisingly,
many film reviewers have derided precisely that aspect of
the film.
"Levy's film is laughable but, unfortunately, it is not
very funny. This reviewer found little to laugh about in
this sadly unfunny movie," wrote a reviewer in Hamburger
Abendblatt newspaper.
"One of the most enduring crimes of the Third Reich is the
embarrassment it has caused for subsequent generations of
Germans," wrote Der Spiegel news magazine.
"That is about the hardest thing Germans have to endure -
that the Third Reich is so unforgivably embarrassing."
Levy, a Jewish Swiss filmmaker who has made a career out
of directing irreverent comedies, picked one of Germany's
most outrageously irreverent stand-up comics to
portray the fuehrer.
Helge Schneider, who plays an impotent and incontinent
Hitler playing with toy battleships in a bathtub, is an
anarchic comic who himself has directed and starred in a
number of slapstick comedies - films that largely appeal
to adolescent male audiences.
"Helge is precisely the man to deflate Hitler down to
human size," Levy says. "Germans have been conditioned to
think of Hitler as a larger-than-life demon whose actions
and crimes are beyond human comprehension.
"As long as they think of him as being non-human, they
will never come to terms with the fact that he was a very
human, very mortal buffoon of a man. I needed a buffoon to
play the role and Helge is the perfect buffoon."
Schneider says the controversy over the film only shows
that Germans fail to see the ludicrous side of Hitler.
Echoing Der Spiegel's suggestion that Hitler's most
unforgivable crime was in being a continual embarrassment
to all future Germans, Schneider says: "Hitler was a
pathological nincompoop who got where he was only because
a lot of people somehow ignored the fact."
The film has outraged Jewish leaders in Germany, saying it
makes Hitler seem harmless.
"My family is Holocaust survivors and it just turns my
stomach to think that moviegoers in Germany will be
laughing at Hitler and the Holocaust," says Dieter
Graumann,
vice president of the Central Council of Jews in Germany.
"I just can't laugh about these things."
One of the Jewish community's most strident, high-profile
leaders is Lea Rosh, a veteran newswoman who was a guiding
force behind the Holocaust Monument located on
the block between Brandenburg Gate and Hitler's one-time
chancellery building in the heart of Berlin.
"There is no way that any film director can make Hitler
funny," says Rosh. "Levy's film denigrates the horror and
suffering that millions endured. It's not something you
can
laugh about, not now, not in 200 years, not ever."
Levy's last film was a black comedy about the estranged
sons of a German Jewish father whose dying wish was that
they make amends and share his estate in harmony.
The film was critically acclaimed but played at only a few
art-house cinemas. His Hitler comedy is not expected to do
even that well, despite or perhaps because of all the
advance publicity.
Even so, Levy is well respected in Israel, where his last
film was shown to cheers and also to boos and catcalls.
"I'm looking forward to the screening in Jerusalem," Levy
says. "My last film was accused of being a piece of
Goebbels Nazi propaganda. What on earth will hardliners in
Israel think of this film?"
The filmmaker is also curious to see how right-wingers in
Germany react to "Mein Fuehrer".
"I'm just waiting for the complaints to come in from
neo-Nazis, and from old-Nazis for that matter, who gripe
that my film is disrespectful of their fuehrer and shows
him in a
bad light," Levy says.
"I mean, it's so typical of Germans to take it all so
terribly seriously and not realise that their total lack
of humour makes them a laughingstock around the world."

warned young actors to not be too taken up with fame,
which can be addictive and destructive.
Stallone blames his traumatic life on his rise to being a
celebrity in Hollywood. He told contactmusic.com: "Success

stable home life. I didn't have that, and when you come
from nothing and you are given everything - money, women,
limos - it's crazy."

world as a candy shop and you don't have to pay. You know
what happens when you eat too much candy - it affects your
work and whatever made you special is gone." |
