Radha Blank, the writer, star, director, and central (fictionalized) character of The Forty-Year-Old Version, is — in the movie — a struggling playwright. She was once a rising star on the theater scene, one of those beknighted 30-Under-30 types whose precocious early displays of talent were supposed to lead to a sparkling, enduring career. (Even though, as many know, such a career is by no means promised.) It certainly hasn’t panned out that way for Radha, who’s no longer an “under 30” but rather a straight-up, grumpy 40 year-old whose main claim...

One Shot is a series that seeks to find an essence of cinema history in one single image of a movie.The more you watch John Boorman’s Point Blank, the more its terrain keeps shifting underneath your feet. It should be a conventional crime thriller about a Magnum-toting brute’s (Lee Marvin’s) quest for the $93,000 heist cache he’s been cheated out of. It ends up being something much more elusive and impossible to pin down: a ghost story that brings Alain Resnais’s unstuck-in-time fluidity into the familiar realm of U.S. pop? a photo essay on the piercingly lonely surfaces of 1967 Los Angeles? an allegory about our doomed mortal quest for the unattainable? There’s one image that always flashes in my head, Boorman-style, any time I feel unmoored by my surroundings—which, lately, has been all the time. It’s when sharklike Lee Marvin...

The cast also features U.S. star Wayne Brady, whose credits include “The Bold and the Beautiful,” “Let’s Make a Deal” and “How I Met Your Mother.”
“Blank” sees a desperate writer sign up for a fully A.I. operated retreat to cure her writer’s block, but when an unforeseen software glitch occurs, she gets trapped inside her unit with an unstable android and no communication with the outside world.
Shelley plays the writer, Claire Rivers, with Reed as ‘the A.I.,’ and Brady as the “host.” Jamie Lomas, Bhasker Patel, Rebecca-Clare Evans and Annie Cusselle (“The Silent Child”) round out the cast.

Sunny Deol and Karan Kapadia start in the newly released film Blank. This edge-of-the-seat thriller is sure to provide plenty of punch, not holding back in discussing the most important topic of this decade: terrorism. Even from the trailer there is plenty to like about this film, putting a human face on a societal issue. However, this is Karan Kapadia’s introduction film so cinemagoers will be interested to see not only his action, drama and dialogues but his music and dance. Arko Pravo Mukherjee and Raghav Sachar come together to deliver an album that must both disappear behind the powerful story but find a platform for the young hero to shine upon.
Amit Mishra and Enbee open this album with the super hard-hitting Warning Nahi Dunga. This is an angry, powerful song to give the audience plenty of warning of what is to come. This song screams action and...

Actor Akshay Kumar on Friday issued a statement regarding the controversy over his citizenship. He says he has never hidden or denied that he holds a Canadian passport and that he doesn't understand the unwarranted interest and negativity about it.
"I really don't understand the unwarranted interest and negativity about my citizenship. I have never hidden or denied that I hold a Canadian passport. It is also equally true that I have not
visited Canada in the last seven years," Akshay tweeted.
"I work in India, and pay all my taxes in India. While all these years, I have never needed to prove my love for India to anyone, I find it disappointing that my citizenship issue is constantly dragged into needless controversy, a matter that is personal, legal, non-political, and of no consequence to others," he added in the statement.
He concluded by saying: "Lastly, I would like to...

The trailer of the film 'Blank' starring newcomer Karan Kapadia and actor Sunny Deol is being well received by the people and critics alike and all for good reasons too. With just the trailer being so widely accepted by everyone, the filmmakers decided to have multiple screenings of the film five days before the release date. After one such screening in Delhi, a press conference was held with the media. The movie is being shown to the public which is rarely done with a debutant's film. The film is being screened in select theatres throughout India.
Makers of the film have taken a very bold approach for the marketing strategy of this movie. Even the trailer which was released did not reveal the faces of the actors, it simply highlighted the content of the film. It is perhaps this new take on promotion that has the viewers intrigued and impatient for the release.

After the intriguing posters and the teaser of Blank, the makers unveiled the trailer of the film in the presence of Sunny Deol, Karanvir Sharma, Ishita Dutta and many more.
The trailer of Blank keeps us hooked right from the first shot, it shows a suicide bomber, played by Dimple Kapadia's nephew Karan Kapadia, who loses his memory because of an accident. Sunny Deol on the other hand is a dutyful police officer who chooses his duty over system's politics. Ishita Dutta and Karanvir Sharma play Intelligence Bureau officers.
The trailer opens with Sunny Deol saying, "Terrorism ka koi chehra nahi hota. Uska dharam sirf paisa. Aur humara dharm, duty. (There's no face to terrorism. It's religion is money and ours is duty)." So, the plot is - a Pakistani terrorist organisation, Tehreer Alhim, plans to bomb the city and sends a suicide bomber to execute it. The Intelligence...
