AV Club Remember when we were discussing Guy Pearce and why he doesn't get major parts? Well Ridley Scott to the rescue. Pearce has been cast in Prometheus, the is-it-or-isn't-it-an-Aliens-sequel?
Scott Feinberg likes Kathleen Turner in The Perfect Family. Will it find distribution and warm reception outside of Tribeca's fest?
La Daily Musto bizarre story about the Tribeca screening of the documentary Carol Channing: Larger Than Life. I was there and was very close to this row where Security was called. It was quite odd but here's the whole story.
Remember when Nicole Kidman did a commercial for Schweppes? Now Uma Thurman is making bank with the beverage. Here it is.

I also saw 'Perfect Family' at Tribeca. While I thought Turner was slightly amusing in it, I think the film itself was lacking. It definitely needs a re-edit to make it feel swifter. Tough task though, consider the film is already under 90 minutes long.
That Schweppes commercial is actually hilarious. Uma totally sells it.
when will the film bitch awards finally be finished????
caroline -- my goodness. patience. I just added a couple categories Sunday! :)
At least this Schwepps commercial makes sense in context and is genuinely funny - Uma poking fun at herself and the whole movie star goddess thing; whereas the Kidman commercial made no sense whatsoever (and in fact, is a good example of what this commercial mocks.)
That commercial makes me want to have Schweppes with Uma Thurman, she can pick the place, I'll get the drinks.
