New Trailer: Wyeth

Posted on by

WYETH tells the story of one of America’s most popular, but least understood, artists – Andrew Wyeth. Son of the famous illustrator N.C. Wyeth, Andrew had his first exhibition at age 20, and his painting “Christina’s World” was acquired by the Museum of Modern Art in 1948. While Wyeth’s exhibitions routinely broke attendance records, art world critics continually assaulted his work.

Detailing the stunning drawings and powerful portraits he created in Chadds Ford, Pa. and on the coast of Cushing, Maine, WYETH explores his inspirations, including neighbor Christina Olsen and his hidden muse, the German model Helga Testorf, who he painted secretly for 15 years.

Through unprecedented access to Wyeth’s family members, including sons Jamie and Nicholas Wyeth, and never-before-seen archival materials from the family’s personal collection and hundreds of Wyeth’s studies, drawings and paintings, American Masters presents the most complete portrait of the artist yet — bearing witness to a legacy just at the moment it is evolving.

Directed by Glenn Holsten, the film will be available on Digital HD on September 8 and on DVD September 11 via PBS Distribution.

Eerie First Trailer For Netflix’s “Maniac” Released

By Creative Media Times

Netflix

Emma Stone and Jonah Hill has come a long way since they last starred together in the raunchy coming-of-age teen comedy hit film “Superbad.” The two are reuniting in an upcoming dark comedy series from Netflix “Maniac,” and now we finally have its first full trailer.

The trailer shows Stone and Hill’s characters Annie Landsberg and Owen Milgrim, being interrogated by
Justin Theroux’s Dr. James Mantleray. “Do you know where you are, right now? What do you think is wrong with you” Mantleray says.

“Is this therapy now?” Annie asks back during the interrogation which quickly turned bizarre. “It’s not therapy, it’s science,” Mantleray responds. “Once you begin to appreciate the structure of the mind, there’s no reason to believe anything about us can’t be changed. Pain can be destroyed. The mind can be solved.”

The series is based on the Norwegian television series of the same name by Hakon Bast Mossige and Espen PA Lervaag which aired in 2014. Written by Patrick Somerville and directed by Cary Fukunaga, “Maniac” is set to premiere on Netflix on Sep. 15.

Here’s the series logline:

“Annie’s disaffected and aimless, fixated on broken relationships with her mother and her sister; Owen, the fifth son of wealthy New York industrialists, has struggled his whole life with a disputed diagnosis of schizophrenia. Neither of their lives have turned out quite right, and the promise of a new, radical kind of pharmaceutical treatment—a sequence of pills its inventor, Dr. James K. Mantleray (Justin Theroux), claims can repair anything about the mind, be it mental illness or heartbreak—draws them and ten other strangers to the facilities of Neberdine Pharmaceutical and Biotech for a three-day drug trial that will, they’re assured, with no complications or side-effects whatsoever, solve all of their problems, permanently. Things do not go as planned.”

Gary Oldman Re-Teaming With Joe Wright For New Film

Posted on by

By Creative Media Times

William Morrow

You know its a great collaboration when your last film earned six Oscar nominations and a win for its lead actor.

So its not entirely surprising that director Joe Wright and actor Gary Oldman are wasting no time to re-team once again, this time for an upcoming drama “The Woman in the Window,” this according to Hollywood Reporter.

Wright and Oldman of course worked together in “Darkest Hour,” the highly acclaimed 2017 war drama film which earned Oldman a long-overdue oscar best actor trophy. That film was equally successful with audiences, grossing $150.2 million at the worldwide boxoffice.

Amy Adams has already been cast in the film, which is an adaptation based of the New York Times number one best-selling novel of the same name from author A.J. Finn.

Here is the book’s synopsis from HarperCollins:

Anna Fox lives alone—a recluse in her New York City home, unable to venture outside. She spends her day drinking wine (maybe too much), watching old movies, recalling happier times . . . and spying on her neighbors.

Then the Russells move into the house across the way: a father, a mother, their teenage son. The perfect family. But when Anna, gazing out her window one night, sees something she shouldn’t, her world begins to crumble—and its shocking secrets are laid bare.

What is real? What is imagined? Who is in danger? Who is in control? In this diabolically gripping thriller, no one—and nothing—is what it seems.
