Has anyone else seen the trailer for Bill and Jarmusch's "Broken Flowers". It's over at the movies.com website. Looks great except for Sharon Stone who I hate. It does feature Julie Delpy and Tilda Swinton though which more than make up for her presence. It may very well be a long shot, but could Bill get his Oscar?

The only problem I tend to have with Sharon Stone is that she cuts her own hair. And she doesn't do a very spiffy job of it. :\

Sounds like a good film, I'm looking forward to seeing it. I think someone posted about it over in the Cannes thread -- if that thing still exists. Ugh.

Haven't seen a trailer on TV or anything yet, though.

i think i was the one posting about it. i had seen some interviews with jarmusch, bill, tilda swinton and july deply taken at cannes. they showed some clips from the movie, and i thought it was really interesting.

i will be checking it out for sure if it makes it here.

on a vaguely related note, just got "coffee and cigarettes". haven't had the chance to watch it yet, but looks good. ;) <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--> reality had met me, such a short time ago, in such and ugly shape, that i have no wish to come in contact with it again. somewhere in me a dark fear was still crouching and i took refuge within the fantastic like a distressed child in his book of fairy tales. i did not want to look ahead, and not at all to look back.

Ciggies and Coffee is in my Netflix cue.

That's right. I'm back on the bus. I quote Billybuttons: <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>I want, I want. I need, I need. Gimme, gimme, gimme.</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

(It's funnier when he says it.)

<!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="font-size:xx-small;">Damnit, I had posted links to cannes coverage, and sithload of high quality stills and an immense amount of giddy rambling.
http://www.outnow.ch -search for broken flowers you'll get stills

the trailer is on MSN, you can probably search for it, and I dislike the trailer, i'm sure i'll love the movie though.</span><!--EZCODE FONT END-->

Ok, I'm redoing this post with neccesary linkage.

Jessica Lange too. Boooooo.

But Tilda Swinton. Yay!

I love Jessica Lange. And Jeffrey Wright.

Thanks for fixing us up again, Loreaxonehhhlshs.

I just canNOT learn your handle!

Hey! Jeffrey Wright! That went right under my radar when I first read this post. For some reason I read it as Geoffrey Rush (sp?). Weird.

Woohoo! Haven't seen him in a long time.

Oh, and I mentioned Michael Wincott the other day, and started to describe him as the guy from the Crow, when a new friend of mine said, "You mean the gay guy in Basquiat?"

And he earned himself, like 10,000 cool points. <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END-->You don't have scurvy. Only pirates get scurvy.<!--EZCODE BR START-->
<!--EZCODE BR END-->Pirates and me! Wait... write that down, that's a good movie title.</p>

10,000 cool points earned! Good for him!

He was so good in Basquiat, and I loved his tirade in the gallery. Not so much at Mr. Chow's though. Embarrassing. That was like a Mad TV sketch... sometimes you should've given it up like 5 minutes ago.

Now I've got PIL in my head. Awesome.

Jeffrey's workin, man. He's such the underrated guy of the 90s. I wish he'd gotten better films after Basquiat, he totally deserved the crack.

But then I think... Mark Ruffalo is amazing. You Can Count on Me should've gotten him better films, too. And I really like him in 13 Going on 30, because hello I'm a chick, but ... he is so capable. It's a little heartbreaking.

Isn't he in The Squid and the Whale? Or am I on drugs?

I'm certainly OT. Sorry about that. A little free-association going on here. Wincott gets me all torqued up! (Like JoJo the Indian circus boy, with his pretty new pet! Ha!) <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--> <!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:navy;font-family:times new roman;font-size:x-small;">"And that's the whole idea of the film: it's a fake documentary; it's about fake secrecy.

Mr Ruffalo. He is awesome, but he'll always be Terry to me. I don't think I can seperate him from that role. <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END-->You don't have scurvy. Only pirates get scurvy.<!--EZCODE BR START-->

Probably. Cause everyone should see it. It's a good but not great movie, with a fantastic cast. Bowie plays Warhol and is totally convincing. <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END-->You don't have scurvy. Only pirates get scurvy.<!--EZCODE BR START-->

Yeah, then that's the one. I remember not believing that Bowie would make a convincing Warhol. <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END-->I never liked kids. They're like small drunk adults. </p>
