"Carnage" movie poster; "Coriolanus" movie trailer; "Like Crazy" movie trailer;

The French poster for Roman Polanski's upcoming comedy/drama Carnage was released a couple of days ago. I thinks it is a very appelative/attractive poster due to the colors, but mainly due to the actors' variety of mood expressions, which give us a clue about the movie's tone (love Kate Winslet's b**ch face!). The movie will be released in this year's edition of Venice Film Festival and it stars Jodie Foster, John C. Reilly, Kate Winslet and Christoph Waltz. There's a lot of Oscar buzz around this movie, including for the Best Picture category, but mainly for the acting categories' race. Here's the poster:

Ralph Fiennes directorial debut, Coriolanus is an adaptation of William Shakespeare's play of the same name but with a different/more contemporany scenario... The trailer shows what seems to be a meaty movie about war, politics and family and I kind was impressed by the movie's look after watching the trailer: I was expecting something more "boring-looking", but it looks amazing, actually! Coriolanus stars Ralph Fiennes, Gerard Butler, Vanessa Redgrave, Brian Cox and Jessica Chastain and it was part of the 61st edition of Berlin Film Festival and it opened Belgrade International Film Festival this year. Here's the trailer:

Like Crazy - Sundace Film Festival 2011 Grand Jury Prize: Dramatic winner - got a movie trailer. This one is actually the second one, but since the other is so short and more teaser-looking, I pronounce this trailer THE LIKE CRAZY TRAILER (kidding!). It seems sweet. It seems a feel-bad movie. It seems beautiful. Like Crazy looks like the result of a threesome between (500) Days of Summer, Blue Valentine and Going the Distance, but with a very own soul, and it makes this movie looking so interesting for audiences who like less mainstream cinema. I'm going crazy while I'm waiting this movie hits European theatres to see this one with my special girl (maybe we'll end the movie completely depressed...). Like Crazy is directed by Drake Doremus and it stars Anton Yelchin and Felicity Jones, while Jennifer Lawrence also makes an important appearance. Here's the movie trailer (the first song is "Dead Hearts" by Stars and the second one is "Can't Help Falling In Love" cover by Ingrid Michaelson):

TOP 35 Actors and Actresses Under 35 Working Today - 2017

The almost annual TOP 35 Actors and Actresses Under 35 Working Today is out, with me considering the performers' performances of 2016 also. We have a few changes since last year's list, with Greta Gerwig toping the list thanks to her last 3 great performances in Mistress America , Maggie's Plan and the Oscar buzzy acting turn in 20th Century Women . Scarlett Johansson comes second with her latest distinguished performance being in 2014 ( Under the Skin ), but she managed to be at the spotligh this year thanks to her fine turns in critically acclaimed movies: Hail, Caesar! , Captain America: Civil War , The Jungle Book (voice) and Sing (voice). Emily Blunt adds another great performance to her resume in The Girl on the Train and she comes third, while Elle Fanning 's turning into one of the finest actresses and she's getting to play more adult and complex parts like The Neon Demon and 20th Century Women 's (her two best performances since Super 8 ).

TOP 10 Most Promising Movie Actors (under 30)

Today I discussed about how awful some "teen icons" are and then we talked about some exceptions. So, I decided to make a little list, a TOP 10, with the male actors that I think that will become music in an ocean of noise somewhere in the future (I did one list before, but it was a little bit pathetic and I didn't justify my choices). Let's start... 1 - Ryan Gosling He may not have a huge list of movies in his body of work, but the few times he makes something, all the time he almost carries the movie. In fact, Gosling is a proof that talent does exist and that you don't need excentrical characters to receive raves. He rose to fame after the big screen adaptation of The Notebook (2004) and then received lots of critical praise for his performances in movies like Half Nelson (that gave him an Oscar, a SAG Award and other major awards nominations), Lars and the Real Girl (that gave him a Golden Globe, a SAG Award and other major awards nominations) and Fractur

TOP 35 Actors and Actresses with or under 35 years old: 2018

I think it was my TOP 35 under 35 list I've ever done since I remember: so many great performers emerged last year with distinguished performances that elevated their previous works (I'm talking about Elizabeth Olsen , Lucas Hedges , Robert Pattinson , Gaspard Ulliel , Tessa Thompson or Jamie Bell , for example). I'm kinda sad I felt "forced" at letting Jonah Hill ( Moneyball and The Wolf of Wall Street ) and Emma Watson ( The Perks of Being a Wallflower , The Bling Ring and 2017's Beauty and the Beast ) out of the list. Congratulations to Kirsten Dunst , who turned 35 last year so she can not be included in this year's list - such an amazing child actress turned movie star, who delivered memorable performances in Interview with the Vampire (1994), The Virgin Suicides (1999), The Cat's Meow (2002) or Melancholia (2011). This year, Saoirse Ronan tops the list thanks to two great performances: On Chesil Beach and an iconic acting turn in Lad
