I Am Bish

user
    What happens when you mash together 300 volunteer zombies, a $10,000 budget and an “end of the world, romantic-zombie-action-musical” screenplay? The 2009 Australian indie film I am Bish, currently buzzing through the international film festival circuit with the appropriate tagline, “Just because it’s the end of the world doesn’t mean we can’t have a few laughs.” The film, directed by David Bishop, tells the story of a film student (Bish) shoo...

At a dinner party one evening they meet Nicolas (Niels Schneider), a striking young man from the country who has just recently arrived in town. His boyish charm and classical good looks create an irresistible mystique that neither of the two friends can shake. The threesome begins to spend more and ...

From Rocky Mount, NC to Hollywood

user
    Rocky Mount, NC native Mary Elizabeth Winstead is taking it all in as the new "it" girl as she plays the role of Ramona in the new film Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. The cartoonish comic book based film also stars the nerdy but adorable sexy Michael Cera as Scott Pilgrim.  Winstead, 25, admits that “it’s a bit daunting to step into the shoes of a character described as ‘aloof, mysterious and beautiful,’ a character who already has a lot of...

Tony Murnahan: An Indie Filmmaker

user
    Tony Murnahan is a young, Fayetteville-based filmmaker who has already lived multiple lives. After retiring from touring in rock bands, his buddy Joe Stauffer helped Tony transition into producing multi-angle, live, rock videos for local NC bands. Tony sold much of his musical equipment so he could afford the very basics needed for creating videos. Thus Murnahan’s own production company, Stwrongtone Media, was born. After filming countless live performances,...

Whatever Happened To Ryan Gosling?

user
I've never seen The Notebook.  I know.  That's bad right?  An alleged film connoisseur who writes a blog about films and never has seen The Notebook.  But I must admit, I've seen just about every other Ryan Gosling film made. My favorite is the film Half Nelson where he plays the crack-addicted school teacher who begins an unlikely friendship with one of his students.  I also loved his work in United States of Leland where he had the opportunity to work with the likes of Kevi...
