An unholy estate
Article Abstract:
The family dynamic can become trapped in a time warp after a certain age, according to filmmaker Greg Motolla. This view forms the basis for his first feature, 'The Daytrippers.' This film, which was shot in a very short time on a small budget, was rejected by the Sundance Film Festival. Motolla believes that this decision was prompted by the class-consciousness of the independent filmmaking scene in the US, with only films that mock the middle classes being fashionable. He feels that his film gives more attention to making fun of this inverted snobbery.

How big a star do I have to be?
Article Abstract:
Actor Andy Garcia denies that he has lost his hunger for acting, but he accepts that he now takes a different approach to acting. He does not wish to be cast as a Latin lover, despite having the appropriate appearance for such roles, and prefers to be a romantic. His family is his greatest priority, and he avoids roles that would involve being away from his family on location shoots for too long. However, he does not feel that he has put his career on hold for the sake of his family.

I'd like to thank Dr Frankenstein
Article Abstract:
Working with actor Ian McKellen on the film 'Gods and Monsters,' based on the novel 'Father of Frankenstein' by Chris Bram, was initially intimidating, according to writer-director Bill Condon. It took some time for Condon to persuade McKellen to become involved with this project, just as it also took time to persuade a studio to accept the film. Condon feels that McKellen reveals a lot of himself in this film, especially in terms of being manipulative.
