Juan of the Dead (Juan de los Muertos)

A La Zanfona Producciones and Producciones de la 5ta Avenida production. (International sales: Latinofusion, Jalisco, Mexico.) Produced by Gervasio Iglesias, Inti Herrera. Executive producers, Iglesias, Herrera, Claudia Calvino. Directed, written by Alejandro Brugues.With: Alexis Dias de Villegas, Jorge Molina, Andrea Duro, Andros Perugorria, Jazz Vila, Eliecer Ramirez.A great title, a novel setting and some surprisingly blunt digs at Castro's Cuban land of non-opportunity aren't enough to save "Juan of the Dead" from being a lowbrow zombie comedy that mostly goes where many others have gone before. Written and directed by Alejandro Brugues ("Personal Belongings"), this Spain-Cuba co-production scores a few laughs, but the weak script's scant narrative drive and crude humor are best suited to the undiscriminating. Nonetheless, pic should pick up a fair number of offshore deals for various formats, with distribs in several territories signing or negotiating after its Toronto preem. Fortysomething Havana slacker Juan (Alexis Dias de Villegas) is an amiable ne'er-do-well whose wife and child left him for greener pastures abroad long ago. He and perpetually horny dim-bulb friend Lazaro (Jorge Molina) scrape by through variably legal odd jobs including fishing; when they reel in a ravenous zombie, their curious response is no more than a shrugged "Let's not tell anyone about this." It's everyone's business soon enough, though, as an undead epidemic begins decimating the city's population shortly thereafter. In the screenplay's most amusing stroke, government authorities and media immediately insist the marauders are merely "dissidents" bent on undermining the communist state at the behest of a certain evil empire just up north. Their sticking to that party line, no matter how dire things get, is an inspired running gag; subversive nods to Cuba's perpetually broken-down infrastructure and make-do citizenry are also good for some chuckles. Juan susses a rare private business opening to be seized in the general chaos, setting up himself, Lazaro and latter's lanky son (Andros Perugorria) as a zombie cleanup crew with the motto "We kill your loved ones." Pushing their way in as partners are shrill neighborhood tranny La China (Jazz Vila) and her pal El Primo (Eliecer Ramirez), a huge muscleman who faints at the site of blood. Also joining, albeit reluctantly, is Juan's now-grown daughter, Camila (Andrea Duro), whose holiday to visit Grandma has been extended indefinitely by the crisis. Fairly plotless hijinks ensue, with occasional good lines and one great little setpiece (a unique mass-zombie beheading) outweighed by homophobic and otherwise puerile jokes and routine splatstick. Obviously this isn't Noel Coward, but Brugues could have aimed a little higher; there's precious little wit, originality or cinematic style even attempted here, though the energy level remains decently high. Perfs and packaging are adequate, with CGI effects ranging from competent to subpar.Camera (color), Carles Gusi; editor, Mercedes Cantero; music, Sergio Valdes; production designer, Derubin Jacome; costume designer, Esther Vaquero; sound, Daniel de Zayas; special effects supervisor, Juan Carlos Sanchez; visual effects supervisor, Juan Ventura; makeup effects, Cristian Perez Jauregui; assistant director, Olga Sanchez; casting, Libia Batista.

Transformers 3 Dark Of The Moon Full Movie

Violet & Daisy

A Magic Violet presentation in association with GreeneStreet Films. (International sales: CAA, Los Angeles.) Produced by Geoffrey Fletcher, Bonnie Timmermann. Executive producers, John Penotti, James Skotchdopole. Co-producer, Steve Kempf. Directed, written by Geoffrey Fletcher.Daisy Saoirse Ronan Violet Alexis Bledel Michael James Gandolfini Iris Marianne Jean-Baptiste Russ Danny Trejo April Tatiana MaslanyFollowing his Oscar-winning script for "Precious," Geoffrey Fletcher's directorial debut manages to be precious in a whole different way, sadly far-removed from the approach he took adapting the novel "Push" by Sapphire. Last and least in a run of pics that fancy teen girls as cold-blooded killers, "Violet & Daisy" offers a questionably sentimental spin on the Hit Girl gimmick seen in "Kick-Ass," casting the armed-and-dangerous stars of "Sin City" (Alexis Bledel) and "Hanna" (Saoirse Ronan) as a pair of implausible assassins. This cutesy dark comedy seems destined for cult status, but could also connect with less Puritanical overseas auds. Written pre-"Precious" in a way that could've been made for virtually no money, "Violet & Daisy" benefits from Fletcher's recent fame, which enables the NYU Tisch grad to shoot his skewed fable in NY with a name cast and decent budget. Frankly, you'd never guess the two pics came from the same pen, so different is this uneasy blend of the hitman and coming-of-age genres. Still relatively new to the whole contract killing thing, Daisy (Ronan) blazes her way through the opening scene like an old pro, celebrating her 18th birthday by offing an apartment full of heavily armed Mafia types. Fletcher fully embraces the absurdity, sending Daisy and her ruthless best friend Violet (Bledel, more than a dozen years her co-star's senior) into the firefight disguised as nuns, packing shotguns in pizza boxes. With realism out the window, the rules of this imaginary world take some time to absorb, since one's instinct is to keep young ladies as far away from heavy artillery as possible. When they're not blasting bad guys, Violet and Daisy play patty-cake and behave like girls half their age (their getaway car is a tricycle, which suggests perhaps the roles were written for even younger actresses). Holding their guns like Hong Kong action stars, the pair kill without remorse or motive, other than to buy the latest dresses from their teenybopper idol, Barbie Sunday -- at least, that's the reason they accept the assignment that preoccupies them for the rest of the film. After "Hanna," which blended its own surreality with a fairly complex portrait of a child groomed to kill, "Violet & Daisy" feels radically disconnected from recognizable human behavior. Then James Gandolfini enters the picture, bringing a soul to Fletcher's wink-wink style. Though the helmer has provided only one previous job to judge by, it seems safe to assume that most targets either beg for their lives or shoot back. Not this guy. He practically wants to be killed, going so far as to bake the girls oatmeal cookies for their trouble. Most of "Violet & Daisy" takes place in the mysterious man's apartment, where the script must keep coming up with excuses to get the girls alone so Gandolfini's character can offer them the kind of one-on-one advice that just might save their lives. First, they run out of bullets, which gives a rival gang opportunity to drop by while Daisy is unarmed and Violet is off making a supply run -- one that lands her in the middle of an improbable Mexican standoff at the neighborhood hardware store. Later, Daisy steps out, so Violet can take a nap. By this point, most auds will have picked sides in the film's inevitable love-it-or-hate-it divide, but Fletcher doesn't give either camp the satisfaction of pinning down the pic's tone. The laughs, which reach their outrageous peak with something the girls call "the internal bleeding dance," gradually taper off, making room for carefully manufactured emotion. There's a magic-trick quality to the film's construction, in which Fletcher distracts with one hand while subtly adjusting the mood with the other; by the time people catch on that the cartoon has given way to something more sincere, they may already care about the characters. "Violet & Daisy" expands what could have been a single-set play with two strong-impression cameos -- Danny Trejo as the girl's boss and Marianne Jean-Baptiste as a sniper ready to take them out if the girls botch the job -- but lacks a character menacing enough to create suspense. For the story to bloom, Violet and Daisy must stall, and yet, the longer they do, the more ludicrous it seems that anyone would trust two hit-girls to do a hitman's job. Production values are strong, especially Vanja Cernjul's widescreen lensing, which translates some of Fletcher's wilder first-time-filmmaker impulses into clean, classy compositions.Camera (color, widescreen), Vanja Cernjul; editor, Joe Klotz; music, Paul Cantelon; music supervisor, Susan Jacobs; production designer, Patrizia Von Brandenstein; art director, Fredda Slavin; set decorator, Regina Graves; costume designer, Jenny Gering; sound (Dolby Digital), Richard W.

Rachel Zoe on New Baby Skyler, Feuding with Rodger and Falling Out with Brad

Rachel Zoe Another season of The Rachel Zoe Project, another new assistant. After amicably parting ways with Brad one year ago, fashion maven Rachel Zoe kicks off Season 4 (premiering Tuesday at 10/9c on Bravo) with a surprising revelation: She and Brad are on the outs. She says he poached clients behind her back after he left. "It's not the first time I've been used. I would say it's going to be the last time, though" Zoe says. Rachel Zoe welcomes baby boy But who has time to dwell on that drama? Zoe's got a new assistant, Jeremiah, but she's also dealing with a new baby, six-month-old Skyler Morrison, the launch of her first fashion line, and a whole new creative team. "There's also a lot of new people on the show and in my life that are pretty incredible - there isn't a lot of fighting and pettiness, I can tell you that! Like, I don't know if there's any!" Zoe says. "OK, maybe a little (laughs). We're all just kind of a family, and it's pretty great. It's the best it's ever been." Below, she tells TVGuide.com about balancing work and Skyler (she takes him everywhere!), why things between her and husband-business partner Rodger are not as bad as they look on the show, and where things stand with Brad: How are you juggling being a mom with your job, which now includes being the head of your own clothing line? Zoe: It's what all the working moms told me before: You just figure it out. And you do! My time is more efficient and more focused now. I don't know exactly why that is, but I think it's because everything that takes me away from my son is something that I need to get done quickly. I find that I'm not really scatterbrained anymore, if that makes sense. Good for Skyler. Helping mom out already! Zoe: He's the greatest thing ever. I do take him everywhere with me unless it involves a long car trip or an environment that I think will be bad for him. He comes to all my meetings, he comes to work with me every day... He's my everything. My heart aches when he's not with me. Who are Skyler's favorite designers? Zoe: He doesn't have any! Whatever is the most comfortable is for him. I have favorite designers for him, though. Bonton, for sure, Gucci Kids is amazing, Dior Kids, Ralph Lauren, Gap... it goes on for days. It's so much fun. He's even rocking over-sized sunglasses like mom already. Zoe: He has really, really light eyes that very sensitive. I always have a hat and glasses for him. But in the case of that photo, it was meant to be a little bit of a joke. [Laughs] There were a lot of paparazzi one day when I was at Whole Foods. I turned around and they were in the window while I was buying produce. So I literally put the glasses on him. It was sort of a joke. He does love having them on, though! Brad Goreski: Without Taylor, "there's not so much tension" Last season, you and Rodger seemed to be doing battle on a weekly basis. There was pen-throwing at one point! Scenes from a Marriage came to mind. How bad - or not bad - did it actually get? Zoe: I mean, Rodger and I have the best relationship of many married couples. We're best friends, and we've been together for 20 years, you know? Literally 20 years. I don't know how to explain it, but Rodger and I, we really don't ever "fight." I call it bickering. My friends laugh at us. We actually are completely dependent on one another and really are happiest when we're together. In the show, when you're filming, there's a lot that doesn't get shown. In the premiere, you two butt heads again when it's time to hire your new assistant. Have you figured out a way to work together in your company where it's less... tense? Zoe: Look, as business partners, we're never going to agree on how we approach business. Rodger is a business-financial-minded person; I'm a creative person. Very often, we're going to be far apart on things. But I almost think if that wasn't the case it would be very strange. You need both. He's much more practical-minded and I'm much more, 'Oh, it's going to be fine.' I run myself and my business pretty much on my gut instinct. [When we hired my new assistant], he'd be like, "Well, I don't know if he's the most experienced," blah, blah, blah... Tell me what you saw in Jeremiah, because he didn't appear to be as qualified on paper as the other candidates you interviewed. Zoe: The thing that I really look for in people is enthusiasm and excitement and, not to sound really sappy, that fire in their eyes. When you meet people who are very jaded and are like, "Whatever, whatever, whatever," I think, "If this is how they are coming in, this is not good." Jeremiah had a tremendous attitude, he was really excited to learn and he clearly had great style and great taste. That means a lot to me. The worst thing you could ever get is people who think they know everything. Rachel Zoe and Brad Goreski part ways It's revealed in the first episode back that you and Brad had a falling out after he left the company; you say he poached clients. Right off the bat, in what ways did you feel Jeremiah would be different from Brad and your other former assistant Taylor, with whom you don't speak? Zoe: I wouldn't really even put them in the same sentence. I think everyone is their own individual, but I would say there is no similarity on any level between Jeremiah and Brad and Jeremiah and Taylor. He's a different person entirely. Do you talk to Brad at all? Bravo recently ordered his reality show, It's a Brad, Brad World. Zoe: I don't. We really don't have a relationship at the moment. But, you know, more power to him. Whatever he wants to do is all good by me. You now have your own clothing line, which will be at Fashion Week this fall. How much does that cut into styling and working with individual clients? Zoe: I'm still working with my clients as much, and I still use all the different designers - it's not like I'm putting my line front and center. When I'm wearing my styling hat, it's always going to be like that, and I'm always going to give as much love and attention to styling and to my clients as I always have. Will Skyler be a big part of this season? Zoe: Um, he's not going to be a main focus. I did, in fact, give birth to a child, though, so you'll have to watch and see. Taylor Jacobson: "I don't know anyone who hasn't been supposedly fired by Rachel Zoe" Did your pregnancy make you hesitant to continue filming? Zoe: For sure! But, I mean, the fact is I do have a TV show and I was pregnant and I did give birth to a child. These are the facts and this is a reality show. Kind of hard to hide it for much longer than I did! I got away with hiding it for six months, so... What else can you say about what viewers will see this season? Zoe: It's a very different season than any other season. There's a lot of behind-the-scenes of launching a collection, and the fear and anxiety that goes into that. Also, I think what many women will identify with is working while you're pregnant, and the reality of that. There's a lot of emotion goes with that.
