Sony Pictures Prepares Mount Everest Movie With Doug Liman

If directing a film is like climbing a mountain, then imagine what kind of Herculean task Doug Liman has ahead of him: he's planning to make a film based on one of the most iconic Mount Everest stories in history. In the 1920s, a man by the name of George Mallory looked to be the first man to climb the mountain. After his first two attempts fell short, he tried a third time, but was never heard from again (his remains were found 70 years later). There is still some debate on whether Mallory made it to the summit or not. This will not be the first time Mount Everest has depicted in film. Most recently, 'Everest' -- an IMAX documentary narrated by Liam Neeson -- was released in 1998. [via Deadline] Image courtesy of AFP/Getty Images

Exec. Says Device Used On Jackson Was Inadequate

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- An executive for the maker of a medical device used by Michael Jacksons doctor to monitor the singer told jurors on Friday that the equipment was not adequate for the continuous monitoring of patients. The $275 fingertip device that monitors the pulse and blood oxygen levels was recovered after Jacksons death and was being used by Dr. Conrad Murray while he was giving the singer doses of the surgical anesthetic propofol. Prosecutors called Nonin Medical executive Bob Johnson to try to show that Murray lacked enough equipment to care for the singer during the treatments. Propofol is normally administered in hospital settings. Johnson said the model that Murray used had no audible alarm and was not intended to be used for the continuous monitoring of patients. Murray, 58, has pleaded not guilty to a charge of involuntary manslaughter. If convicted, Murray could face up to four years in prison and lose his medical license. Jurors are expected Friday to hear from paramedics who responded to the singers rented mansion and tried to revive him. Martin Blount and Richard Senneff had previously testified at a preliminary hearing that Murray never mentioned giving Jackson the powerful anesthetic propofol and told them the singer lost consciousness moments before an ambulance was called. Both men believed the singer had died by the time they arrived, but Murray insisted Jackson be taken to a hospital for more resuscitation efforts. The prosecution witnesses will likely provide jurors more insight into Jacksons final moments as futile attempts were made to revive the unresponsive superstar as the trial enters its fourth day. On Thursday, a pair of Jackson staffers described the chaotic scene at the rented mansion. Personal chef Kai Chase said she was preparing a spinach Cobb salad for Jackson when a panicked and flustered Murray came down a spiral staircase shouting for her to get security and the singers son, Prince. His energy was very nervous and frantic, said Chase, who added she ran to get Jacksons son in a nearby room. I said, Hurry, Dr. Murray needs you. Something may be wrong with your father. Chase said later she saw paramedics and security running upstairs to Jacksons bedroom where he lay and some of the house staff were crying, unsure of what was happening. The children were crying and screaming, she said. We started hugging. We came together, held hands and we began to pray. Bodyguard Alberto Alvarez said he went to help Jackson after the singers assistant called him on his cellphone. Shocked at seeing Jackson lying motionless in his bed, eyes slightly open, Alvarez barely had time to react when he heard the singers daughter scream Daddy! from the doorway. He led her and Prince from theroom, trying to comfort them. Alvarez then said Murray told him to put vials of medicine he scooped from Jacksons nightstand into a bag. Alvarez complied and also placed an IV bag into another bag. Alvarezs testimony was key for prosecutors who contend Murray, who has pleaded not guilty, was intent on concealing signs that he had been giving the singer doses of propofol as a sleep aid. Alvarez said he thought Murray might be preparing to take the items to the hospital, but the bags never made it to the hospital and the bodyguard never questioned the doctor. Defense attorney Ed Chernoff asked whether there was enough time for Alvarez to shield Jacksons children, survey the room and stow away the drugs in the brief period that phone records show he was in the home before calling emergency responders. The bodyguard insisted there was, telling the attorney, Im very efficient, sir. Chernoff was not convinced, questioning whether 30 seconds was enough time for the dramatic sequence to play out. Alvarez assured him there was. The defense attorney also challenged Alvarezs recollection, asking whether the collection of the vials happened after paramedics had come and whisked Jackson to a nearby hospital. Alvarez denied it happened after he called 911. Chernoff questioned why Alvarez didnt tell authorities about Murrays commands to bag up the medication immediately after Jackson died, but instead waited until two months after the singers death. The bodyguard said he didnt realize its significance until seeing a news report in late June in which he recognized one of the bags detectives were carrying out of Jacksons mansion. The burly Alvarez became emotional as the 911 call was played for jurors. Jacksons mother, Katherine, appeared distraught and her son, Randy, huddled next to her and put his arm around her. Was that difficult to hear? prosecutor David Walgren asked. It is, Alvarez replied. Alvarezs testimony allowed Walgren to present jurors directly with a bottle of propofol that theyve heard much about throughout the previous two days of the trial. Jurors intently looked at the bottle, which appeared to still contain some liquid. Walgren asked whether anything good had happened to Alvarez as a result of his experience in Jacksons bedroom. No sir, Alvarez responded. Media outlets reportedly offered him up to $500,000 for interviews, but Alvarez said he always refused. Its caused a lot of financial problems, he said, starting to choke up. I went from a great salary to hardly anything. ___ AP Entertainment Writer Anthony McCartney contributed to this report Copyright 2011 by Associated Press.

Extremely Loud Incredibly Close Trailer

First look at Safran Foer adaptationEither fittingly or distastefully close to the tenth anniversary of 9/11 (you tell us), the trailer for Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close has just debuted over at iTunes.Based on Jonathan Safran Foer's sophomore novel (following Everything Is Illuminated, which was filmed by Liev Schriber in 2005), Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is the story of Oskar, whose father is killed in the Twin Tower attacks. Oskar believes his father left him the message in the form of a key, sparking a NY-based quest to find the lock that it fits.Foer's book was divisive, irritating as many people as it moved (it has quirks like a flick-book section in which a figure falling from the World Trade Centre floats back to the top) and on the evidence of the trailer, the film flirts with a similarly problematic sentimentality. We're not sure U2 are helping either, but there's no doubting the strength of that cast, headed up by Tom Hanks and Sandra Bullock, and including Max Von Sydow, John Goodman, Jeffrey Wright, James Gandolfini, Viola Davis, and newcomer Thomas Horn as Oskar.Stephen Daldry (Billy Elliot, The Hours) is directing a screenplay by Eric Roth (Benjamin Button), and the film is out on Christmas Day in North America, and February 3 in the UK.

Now in Movie History: 'A Streetcar Named Desire' Changes Screen Acting Forever

Movie: 'A Streetcar Named Desire' Release Date: September 18, 1951 The Way It Got Made: Like a medium that came from within the late 1800s, film was still being greatly a Victorian talent well into the center of the following century. 'Streetcar,' possibly a lot more than every other movie, pulled the medium kicking and screaming in to the twentieth century and forced it to develop up. The make an effort to adapt Tennessee Williams' landmark play for that screen met with epic censorship battles in Hollywood. Even just in its tamer, abridged form, however, the film version of 'Streetcar' grew to become Hollywood's first movie which was strictly for grown ups. And Marlon Brando's raw, emotional performance inside it forced a brand new type of maturity into screen acting, that was never exactly the same again. 'Streetcar' had taken Broadway by storm if this opened up in 1947, inside a production directed by Elia Kazan and cast with relative unknowns Brando, Jessica Tandy, Kim Hunter, and Karl Malden. The play's adult styles resulted in couple of in Hollywood desired to touch it. Nevertheless, Kazan attempted to import the development wholesale towards the screen, with similar cast, director, and author. Warner Bros. felt it needed a minumum of one proven star within the cast and known as for Tandy to become changed within the lead role of Blanche DuBois. Kazan found his Blanche in Vivien Leigh, who had performed the role around the London stage, underneath the direction of her husband, Laurence Olivier. The part appeared an ideal fit for that actress who had performed Scarlett O'Hara in 'Gone Using the Wind' ten years earlier. Blanche was as an older Scarlett, a Southern belle who were built with a inclination to make use of and discard males and who maintained an intimate dependence on a disappeared past which was never as genteel and delicate as she'd imagined so that it is. Leigh's mannered, typically-trained performance style clashed with Brando's more raw, unfiltered Method technique, however, that clash fit the figures of Blanche and her brother-in-law, the crude, brazen Stanley Kowalski. As Stella (Stanley's wife and Blanche's sister), Hunter gives a brashly sensual performance, making obvious through facial expression and gesture the carnal attraction that stored her associated with Stanley. And Malden found lots of layers to experience in Mitch, the new suitor caught within the crossfire between Blanche and Stanley. Most company directors would attempt to open the play for that screen, to ensure that it can't feel stagebound inside a medium that may provide the figures more room to maneuver and breathe, but Kazan desired to maintain as well as boost the play's feeling of claustrophobia. The majority of the movie, therefore, was shot within the set representing Stanley and Stella's two-room apartment inside a seedy New Orleans neighborhood, with Kazan moving the walls ever closer together in one scene to another, as though to pressure the eventual confrontation between Stanley and Blanche. 'A Streetcar Named Desire' - Trailer for any Late nineteen fifties Re-Release The shoot was the simple part obtaining the script beyond the censors who went the development Code wasn't. The code office required 68 script changes, focusing on three objectionable areas. First, it wouldn't permit any mention of the homosexuality, relevant in Blanche's admission that her youthful husband wiped out themself over her taunts after she discovered him in mattress by having an older guy. Second, it wouldn't allow any suggestion that Blanche would be a lady who searched for sex because of its own sake and never from romance or loneliness. Finally, it wouldn't allow any hint of rape in Stanley's final attack against Blanche. Kazan was willing to stop the very first two within the final script, Blanche describes her husband as weak, recommending his problem was impotence, though an astute viewer reading through between your lines might infer homosexuality. Mention of the Blanche's sexual past is made similarly vague. But Kazan and Williams was their ground around the rape scene, quarrelling the film wouldn't make sense at all without them, plus they threatened just to walk when they did not obtain way. Eventually, the censors exercised with Kazan and Williams a method to take part in the scene within the most oblique and symbolic possible way (with Stanley's smashing from the mirror like a metaphor for that figurative and literal destruction of Blanche's self-image that follows). Also, because Hollywood morality required that Stanley be punished for his violent act, the film would finish, less the play did (with Stanley and Stella's apparent reconciliation), however with Stanley losing Stella, who takes their infant and moves along with neighboring tenants. (Although, again, an astute viewer might interpret the truth that Stella does not move greater than a couple of ft from Stanley being an indication that they may eventually reconcile.) The code office, whose censors were generally Catholics, had lengthy offered like a buffer between filmmakers and also the Catholic Legion of Decency, which released its very own film rankings that may discourage Catholics along with other Christian moviegoers from visiting a proscribed movie. Getting exercised compromises that gained the approval from the Hollywood censors, Kazan and Williams figured they did not need to bother about the Legion of Decency. These were wrong. Legion authorities elevated their very own objections to Kazan's cut from the film and stated whether it were launched out of the box, it might earn their dreaded "Condemned" rating. Fearing a boycott, Warner's worked out it's contractual to final cut and trimmed about 12 moments, amounting to 5 minutes, without Kazan's understanding or permission. The recut 'Streetcar' gained the Legion's milder "B" rating. Kazan was furious. He remembered later, Warner's wanted a seal. They did not provide a damn concerning the beauty or artistic worth of the image. For them it had been just a bit of entertainment. It had been business, not art. They wanted to find the entire family to determine the image. They did not want anything within the picture that may keep anybody away. Simultaneously they thought about being dirty enough to drag people in. The entire business was an outrage. The Way It Was Received: The censorship brouhaha appeared to create no impact on the general public, which made the film an enormous hit. It had been a vital success too, generating rave reviews and 12 Oscar nominations, a lot more than any film that year. All from the stars were nominated, and three of these won, a task since repeated only by 1976's 'Network.' Despite giving among the difinitive performances within the good reputation for movies, Brando was the lone 'Streetcar' star snubbed on Oscar evening. Nevertheless, with only his second movie (his first was the war drama 'The Men' in 1950), Brando had become an immediate star. Kazan cemented his A-list status in Hollywood and immediately began on 'Viva Zapata,' the 2nd of his three film collaborations with Brando. Lengthy-Term Impact: 'Streetcar' would be a high watermark within the careers of involved. Leigh made only three more movies in her own career, including 'The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone' (with different novel by Williams), before her dying from chronic t . b in 1967. Hunter would spend the majority of the nineteen fifties on Hollywood's blacklist but came back to fame as Zira, the compassionate chimpanzee researcher within the 'Planet from the Apes' movies. Malden shone in 'On the Waterfront' (opposite Brando and under Kazan's direction) as well as in the western 'One-Eyed Jacks' (the only real movie Brando ever directed) before settling into late-career fame like a hard-boiled TV cop ('The Roads of Bay Area,A opposite the youthful Michael Douglas) as well as an American Express pitchman ("Don't leave the house without themInch). Williams would continue his run among America's finest playwrights, and Hollywood would still adapt his work through the nineteen fifties and '60s (including 'Cat on the Hot Container Roof' and 'Sweet Bird of Youth'), although frequently in watered-lower form. For the following decade . 5, Kazan continued to be a high director on Broadway as well as in Hollywood, where he directed such landmarks as 'On the Waterfront,' 'East of Eden,' 'A Face within the Crowd,' and 'Splendor within the Grass.' He demonstrated as instrumental in starting the film careers of James Dean, Avoi Marie Saint, Carroll Baker, Eli Wallach, Andy Griffith, Natalie Wood, and Warren Beatty because he had with Brando. Brando, obviously, continued to savor probably the most spectacular -- and spectacularly thrown away -- careers within the good reputation for film. He finally won his first Oscar for his legendary performance as stevedore Terry Malloy in 1954's 'On the Waterfront.' His second came nearly two decades later for 'The Godfather.' For fifty years after 'Streetcar,' he'd deliver a number of indelible performances which were alternately brilliant, harrowing, maddeningly self-indulgent, sometimes completely bizarre, but never boring. Still, nothing he ever did removed the edgy spirit apparent in the Stanley Kowalski, a performance that made popular the technique and blew away forever the stuffy, stagy, superficial acting styles of history. Brando's example inspired numerous entertainers who adopted, beginning with fellow Method entertainers like James Dean and Paul Newman, and ongoing through this very day with stars like The Actor-brad Pitt who, even when they did not follow Brando's technique, still copied him by using their very own eccentric muses. But 'Streetcar' did not just change screen acting. It transformed screen storytelling by growing the plethora of that which was allowable. 'Streetcar' demonstrated the censors might be flexible, even on such once-core concepts like a refusal to illustrate rape. Through the next decade . 5, a rising tide of foreign films with adult subject material would push Hollywood to trap up, while in your own home, bold company directors like Kazan, Otto Preminger, Stanley Kubrick and Mike Nichols would push the censors even more before system finally stopped working. Kazan would finally break the energy from the Legion using the discharge of 1956's salacious 'Baby Toy,' while Nichols would basically sweep away the final vestiges from the old Production Code with 1966's 'Who's Scared of Virginia Woolf?' Changing the code was the rankings system we have today, which appreciates that you will find some movies that merely aren't appropriate for children. 'Streetcar' was the very first movie created using that thought in your mind it had been only dependent on time prior to the relaxation of the profession swept up by using it. 'A Streetcar Named Desire' - "Hey, Stellaaaa!" The Way It Plays Today: Kazan's director's cut was restored in 1993. It consists of a couple of lines of dialogue which make more explicit Stanley's attraction to Blanche, Stella's full sexual confidence over Stanley's brutishness, and Blanche's own carnality. Also, the scene where Stella quietly responds to Stanley's famous cry ("Hey, Stellaaaa!") by having an alternating combination of contempt and surrender is longer and much more nuanced. But even without these corrections, in the diluted form, 'Streetcar' continues to be dripping with desire, having a frankness that appears astonishing to this day. And six decades did absolutely nothing to diminish the energy from the ensemble's acting, especially Brando's turn. Knowing just the later, bloated Brando, your debt it to you to ultimately begin to see the 27-year-old, not-yet-famous Brando burn an opening within the screen because he explodes with whitened-hot intensity, charisma and sensuality.

Why the 'Glee' Season Three Premiere Required a Rankings Dive (Analysis)

Fox's hit musical drama Gleetook a rankings hit in the third-season premiere Tuesday, falling 29 percent within the 18-49 demographic in comparison to last year's season opener.our editor recommends'Glee' Season 3 Premiere: Hits and MissesTim Goodman's Fall Digital recording device List 'Glee': Ryan Murphy Discloses Particulars on 'The Glee Project' Finalists' Characters'Glee': Rachel and Finn's Future and much more Season 3 Spoilers'Glee' Season 3 Premiere Sparks Internet FrenzyRelated Subjects•Glee•TV Rankings Glee still drawn in an exceedingly healthy 4. rating (and 8.six million audiences) also it was the very best-ranked show within the 8 p.m. time slot among more youthful audiences 18-34. But it is nonetheless an unexpected dip for any series that grew to become an overnight phenomenon 2 yrs ago and it has since produced an incredible number of iTunes downloads and created a concert tour, a three dimensional movie along with a reality spinoff (Oxygen's The Glee Project). PHOTOS: 'Glee' Season 3: To School Pictures Much more surprising is the fact that newcomer comedy The Brand New Girl built on its Glee lead-in, tugging in tens of millions of audiences and calculating a 4.8 rating, up 55 percent in comparison towards the season premiere of Raising Hope in September 2010. The primary reason, say industry experts, is probably an uneven second season that appeared to sacrifice storytelling for star tributes. "A lackluster story last season might have performed a component [within the premiere rankings]," states Kaira Adgate, senior vice president research at Horizon Media. PHOTOS: Behind the curtain of Emmy Contender Glee's 'Rumours' Episode Glee opened up large this past year, tugging inside a 5.4 rating within the demo and 12 million audiences. It finished its second-season run calculating a 3.4 rating within the demo (excluding the publish-Super Bowl episode). Many industry associates acknowledge that Gleewent from the tracks artistically last season. But Fox professionals have expressed confidence that co-designers Ryan Murphy and Kaira Falchuk have accomplished a training course-correction this year. Indeed, Fox Entertainment leader Kevin Reilly has stressed it's "an extremely back-to-fundamentals year." The show has additionally endured debate. News that it is stars Jum Michele, Chris Colfer and Cory Monteith would exit the show in the finish of the season spurred an incredible number of angry Tweets and blogs from fans who've become connected to the stars and -- possibly irrationally -- expected these phones carry on our prime school-set series despite their figures graduated. (Producers subsequently stated the trio they are under contract even though their figures are graduation this year, they might go back to Glee should it obtain a 4th season or perhaps in a possible NY-set spinoff.) PHOTOS: Fall TV Preview 2011: The Coming back Shows And also the Glee brand extensions, while tugging in lots of supplemental income for studio twentieth century Fox Television, also might be a double-edged sword, resulting in a "saturation" effect and viewer fatigue as evidenced through the disappointing box office for summer's three dimensional concert movie. "The summer time concerts, gossips about cast changes, the downloads, the Oxygen reality series," adds Adgate. "Possibly the franchise has spread itself too thin so that they can make ancillary [revenue]." PHOTOS: 'Glee' Takes New york city: Behind the curtain Obviously, any network -- especially broadcast systems having a quickly aging viewer demographic -- would have a 4 rating within the marketer-coveted 18-49 demo. And Glee also offers a higher area of Digital recording device viewing. Last season, the show's live-plus-seven rating rose to some 4.2. But as the hard-core Gleeks are clearly still onboard. It remains to appear if casual fans will re-uncover the show because this "back-to-fundamentals" season progresses.
