Scanners on the tributes to legendary film critic Andrew Sarris (RIP) who helped make the auteur theory the big deal it still is with movie buffs.
NPR Monkey See says goodbye to Matt Groenig's hugely funny and enduring "Life is Hell" comic strip (RIP... so many endings lately) 
The Playlist Aw, look at who's suddenly ambitious. Mr. Ryan Phillipe. He's planning to direct his first feature Shreveport (about a has been movie star who is kidnapped and tortured) and he'll star in it, too. We hope it's a metaphor for his actual career because what would be more awesome than a elaborated staged celebrity pity party in the shape of a "Riveting Thriller"

Thinking about the casting options for August now that Clooney is producing. It looks easier to screw up the actresses than the actors.

Paolo -- well the actors roles are very limited in scope in comparison, so, yes. I still think Streep is wrong for it though Julia oddly enough doesn't bother me that much (though it probably should be someone plainer)
