The brand new trailer and poster for DreamWorks Pictures’ upcoming movie The Hundred-foot Journey starring Helen Mirren are here.
In The Hundred-foot Journey, Hassan Kadam (Manish Dayal) is a culinary ingénue with the gastronomic equivalent of perfect pitch. Displaced from their native India, the Kadam family, led by Papa (Om Puri), settles in the quaint village of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val in the south of France.
Filled with charm, it is both picturesque and elegant – the ideal place to settle down and open an Indian restaurant, the Maison Mumbai. That is, until the chilly chef proprietress of Le Saule Pleureur, a Michelin starred, classical French restaurant run by Madame Mallory (Academy Award®-winner Helen Mirren), gets wind of it.
Her icy protests against the new Indian restaurant a hundred feet from her own escalate to all out war between the two establishments – until Hassan’s passion for French haute cuisine and for Mme.

The Wind Rises
In The Wind Rises, Jiro (voice of Joseph Gordon-Levitt) dreams of flying and designing beautiful airplanes, inspired by the famous Italian aeronautical designer Caproni (voice of Stanley Tucci).

Remember that one year (2001) when the list-happy AFI (American Film Institute) decided to compete with the Globes and the Oscars in year end prizes? No, that didn't last long. But there's another AFI, The Australian Film Institute, that has been around for a long time and is in no such danger of being a one-off. This year, they're all about the amazing family crime drama Animal Kingdom which they awarded with a record breaking 18 nominations. Sure, the film is in danger of being way overhyped for people who are coming to it late (which is just about everyone given the sorry state of international distribution for dramas of virtually any kind) but for those who can slough off the "omg" raves, I guarantee you'll think it at least an insinuating and well executed crime drama.

The fall movie season is upon us, and there are some interesting choices out there, the first of which are hitting theaters right now. For autumn, get ready for a host of films that will ramp up the creep factor...before destroying the Earth (one film isn't just opening in the fall, it's about the fall—the fall of humanity, that is), after which we'll find ourselves visiting another planet.
For those who like horror, there's several choices, typically mixed with either humor or romance. You'll have flesh eating zombies in Zombieland (read our early review here), the Devil in drag in Jennifer's Body and effete vampires in New Moon. Meanwhile, another dark subject appears in the form of the posthumous tribute of sorts to Michael Jackson in This Is It; you might say horrific given the circumstances and timing.
And, of course, if all that's not disturbing enough (and let's face it,...

SYDNEY -- Director Jane Campion's latest feature, Bright Star, received the green light for funding from the Film Finance Corp. Australia on Thursday. It's part of an eclectic slate that will usher in the final year of the agency's operations.
Bright Star, an Australian-British co-production that charts the ill-fated love affair between 18-year-old Fanny Brawne and the English romantic poet John Keats, will see Campion reignite her partnership with producer Jan Chapman, with whom she won the 1993 Palme d'Or with The Piano.
Co-producing Bright Star is U.K. producer Caroline Hewitt, while Hopscotch Films and Pathe Films are distributing.
The new FFC slate, which marks the beginning of the final year before it merges with the Australian Film Commission and Film Australia in July 2008, includes four other features, five adult TV dramas, three children's dramas and nine documentaries.
Among those receiving funding is Two Fists, One Heart, a biopic about boxer Rai Fazio, who has co-written the screenplay with Jan Sardi. David Elfick is producing through his Palm Beach Pictures shingle, hiring helmer Shawn Seet for his debut feature.
