Craig Brewer on Remaking Footloose, How It's Like Purple Rain, and Tarzan
Craig Brewer knows that some of you are skeptical about his remake of Footloose, the 1984 Kevin Bacon teen classic about lusty high-schoolers who kick off their Sunday shoes, strain against their small town conservative parents, and “angry dance” their way to prom. But the director, who helped bring rap music to the Academy’s attention in his Oscar-winning Hustle & Flow (and next chained Christina Ricci to a radiator in Black Snake Moan, another tale set in the Southern region where Brewer was raised), comes at it with a fan’s devotion and with an awareness of how religion, morality and politics still overlap in the lives of teenagers today. And, as he watched Kevin Bacon do when he was a kid watching Footloose on the big screen, Brewer admits to indulging in his fair share of “angry dancing.” “I angry dance,” Brewer told Movieline recently in Los Angeles. “I blare The White Stripes — usually it’s off of Icky Thump, or there may be a couple of AC/DC tracks, maybe some off of Led Zeppelin’s Physical Graffiti — and I move around my office and kind of get that bad juju out of me.” Brewer is such a fan of the original, and pays homage so faithfully to it in his new rendition (which stars newcomers Kenny Wormald in the Kevin Bacon role as Ren McCormack and Julianne Hough, inheriting Lori Singer’s role as Ariel, the rebellious preacher’s daughter) that some may wonder why Paramount remade it at all. Read on to hear Brewer’s reasons for updating Footloose, why he’s loved it since age 13, what it has in common with another 1984 rebellious teen pic, Purple Rain, how his upcoming Tarzan project is as much an unexpectedly personal film for him, and the real-life origins of the best line in Hustle & Flow. I’ll start with the big question that I’m sure you’ve been answering left and right, but still: Why remake Footloose? Gee, no one’s asked me that! That’s so refreshing. [Laughs] I bet! You’ve only done about 12 hours of press today. Yeah, but I’ve also been across the country, and everybody else was asking that question — but it’s a valid question, I understand. I’m not judgmental about it. I’m sure there are plenty of people that think this is a money grab on behalf of the studio. I’m sure people are thinking that I’m just selling out or doing a director for hire gig. I can guarantee you that’s actually not the case on either front. There was a moment where Paramount was developing Footloose and it was going to be kind of a more dance celebration — the same team who had done High School Musical was going to do it. Then they decided they didn’t want to do it, and there really was this time when Paramount was going to kill the remake of Footloose. And they called me; I was already down the road with this other movie I thought I was going to do called Mother Trucker, but Adam Goodman, the president of Paramount, kept on me. He was like, “I refuse to accept your pass. You haven’t given me a valid reason why you’re not making this movie.” So you had to be convinced to do this movie? I passed on it twice. What finally made you change your mind? Adam was right. There hadn’t been a movie for teenagers like Footloose in the past couple of decades. I couldn’t think of any. I still challenge people to find one; I’m not saying there isn’t. But it’s not as easy as saying Stomp the Yard or Step Up. What was special in Footloose was not the dancing. Yes, the dancing was fun. But there was something else at work, and I think it had to do with teenagers and parents and educators and administrators and faith and the law, all being these polar opposites of opinion and all being very loud about their opinions — but no one was really listening to each other. And finally, through these camaraderies of Willard and Ren together, and Ariel and Ren getting to know each other, and the conflict between Ren and her father, suddenly everybody saw that they were kind of after the same thing. They all loved their children. They wanted the best for them, they didn’t want any harm to come to them, and it was OK to go to the dance. It was basically a movie that taught me as a teenager that it was OK to stand up for yourself, that it was OK to stand up for yourself in a respectful way. You didn’t have to throw a brick. You didn’t have to shout with a sign outside of City Hall. You could actually put on a tie and write a speech and maybe get further. And I hadn’t seen a movie like that up until I was 13. I was, you know, more of a kid who was into sci-fi movies. But Ren McCormack was this different kind of hero for me, and I can’t think of a recent movie that had those kinds of elements to it, that also had daring elements. People forget how hard Footloose was. I’ve got this fight with Chuck and Ariel, that’s right out of the original. Right. And it goes down in almost exactly the same way. I don’t think I could put that in a teenage movie today if it wasn’t already established in Footloose. Sure. So many of the iconic, memorable scenes from the original Footloose are the kinds of scenes you don’t see in youth-oriented films these days. And that fight between Chuck and Ariel, in particular, is still very hard to watch. It is hard to watch. I think even people who are fans of the original can’t believe we went back there. But there are teenagers out there that are dealing with that in their life, there are teenagers out there that have had friends that are dealing with it. So it’s not something that’s foreign to them, it’s just to some extent not the first thing studios are thinking about in terms of entertaining 13-year-olds. Yet in my day, ’80s movies that usually get maligned — they had some punch to them. Purple Rain, that movie came out the same year Footloose did. I love Purple Rain. It’s one of my favorite movies. I could teach a class on the first eight minutes of Purple Rain. But that movie had, you know, his father trying to kill himself. He hauls off and smacks Apollonia after she gives him the white guitar. It was complicated, it was complex. It was at times hard to watch. A woman gets dumped in the garbage, literally. Right! Right. I mean, it’s strange how hard those movies were in places, yet when we look back on them we call them cheesy. Do you think adults now want to cushion things for younger viewers because they don’t think they can take the kinds of scenes? The idea being what we could handle back then, kids today can’t. It’s so funny, because I remember I saw Footloose in a theater when I was 13. And I remember, when she says, ‘Daddy, I’m not even a virgin,’ it got this groan. Like people couldn’t believe she said that. Well, the same thing happens when I play it in my remake. And as much as people think that teenagers are hardened, and nothing can shock them, it still shocks them.

From Johnny Drama to Gentleman: Kevin Dillon States Being Mr. Comedy Is really a "Victory"
Kevin Dillon It isn't every single day that you simply hear grown males shout "victory" in the center of a home improvement center. Based On How to become a Gentleman's Kevin Dillon, who lately ended an eight-season operate on Entourage, it is simply how people say hello. "Before Entourage, I'd have lots of Marine corps and Platoon fans estimating, 'Did the thing is that mind break?AInch Dillon informs TVGuide.com. "Now, I recieve, 'Hey, Johnny Drama!' Just today, I visited Home Depot and that i had men screaming 'Victory!'" A great deal has transformed for Dillon previously eight years, and we are not only speaking about how exactly he's welcomed in the checkout line. After first attaining prestige for dramatic film roles in Platoon and also the Doorways, Dillon unleashed his funny bone as Johnny "Drama" Chase, the hotheaded, fame-starved older brother of the-list star Vince Chase on HBO's Entourage. The show grew to become well known in showbiz circles and arrived Dillon a catchphrase (thanks to Drama's beloved cult TV series Viking Mission), Diet Pepsi advertisements and three Emmy nominations for the best Supporting Actor inside a Comedy. Take a look at all of the familiar faces coming back to TV this season Now, under per month following the Entourage gang's adventures found a detailed, Dillon has already been back around the small screen starring within the CBS sitcom How to become a Gentleman. "Despite the fact that I did not actually want to work at this time - I needed to consider three several weeks off a minimum of - it simply happened," Dillon states. "Before [Entourage], I could not obtain a sitcom. People wouldn't hire me for comedies. They'd say, 'Oh, he does not do comedy,' and today it is all I actually do.Inch Airing Thursdays at 8:30/7:30c, this contemporary undertake The Odd Couple stars Dillon as Bert Lansing, an military veteran and gym owner/trainer who befriends the etiquette-obsessed Andrew (David Hornsby). (The Oscar to Hornsby's Felix, for a moment.) At first glance, Bert's gruff and aficionado exterior may appear strikingly much like Drama, who was previously so enthusiastic about searching fit he begged his baby bro for calf implants. "I do not think individuals will discover their whereabouts because the same. I seem like we are pursuing a rather different audience," Dillon states. "Bert Lansing quite a bit of fun. He's really a sloppier kind of a man. He's much less of the metrosexual as Johnny Drama, who loved manis and pedis." The cast of Entourage states goodbye - for the time being confident movie may happen Additionally, there are the notable lack of expletives in Bert's everyday vocabulary as compared to the zero broadcasting standards Entourage occured to on the pay cable network. "I decided to miss cursing, however i really don't," Dillon states. "I still seem like I'm able to get my way without real harsh language." The greatest distinction between Bert and Drama might be their number of buddies. Entourage adopted four men who was raised on a single block in Queens, visited exactly the same school coupled with (mostly) exactly the same sensibilities about existence, love and Hollywood. Regarding how to Be considered a Gentleman, Bert is easygoing and rough round the edges, while Andrew is uptight and enthusiastic about doing things the right way. "Since there has not been a strange Couple because the '70s, it has been some time since we have seen anything such as this,Inch Dillon states. "That one it appears to become snappier, faster and merely another vibe, however, you can continue to have the two men as well as their variations." Entourage creator Doug Ellin around the finish, the backlash so when fans can get a film Although Dillon has his hands full with How to become a Gentleman, he has not closed the doorway on Drama and the Entourage crew at this time. After plans for any follow-up film were first introduced this year, he's still hopeful the boys from Queens can get a full day around the giant screen. "I believe will still be going to take place. It is simply type of tricky using the men working, however it appears like several the stars take presctiption board. Doug Ellin really wants to write it. Mark Wahlberg really wants to produce it and so i think it most likely may happen,Inch he states. "I really hope it will.Inch For now, however, Dillon is wishing his latest act catches on in addition to Drama did. "Hopefully, they could be estimating some Bert Lansing lines at some point,Inch he states having a laugh.

Roman's Circuit (El circuito de Roman)
An Escala Humana/Forastero presentation in co-production with Domenica Films/La Ventura/Kine-Imagenes. (International sales: Shoreline Entertainment, Los Angeles.) Produced by Jorge Lopez Vidales, Gregorio Gonzalez, Sebastian Brahm. Co-producer, Pepe Salvia, Laura Mara Tablon. Directed, written by Sebastian Brahm.With: Cristian Carvajal, Paola Giannini, Alexis Moreno, Julia Martinez Rubio, Pablo Krogh, Camilo Carmona, Shlomit Baytelman.The rare feature to treat science seriously and respectfully, Sebastian Brahm's "Roman's Circuit" fascinates with its mix of actual and invented ideas on memory and neuroscience, but falls short as a character study of a once-promising neuropsychologist in career decline. Protag's attempts to publish for the first time in a while intersect with academic warfare, a past romance and a promising student, but the result feels more like an outline than a finished film. Fest and market response will be respectful but muted. Roberto Roman (Cristian Carvajal) made a name for himself in his late 20s with groundbreaking research on memory. Initially unexplained events prompted him to jump off the academic fast track, but he's returned to the psychology department at Chile's State U. in Santiago at the invitation of mendacious department head Osvaldo (Pablo Krogh). Roberto is to have relatively free rein in a lab that's set to be upgraded, but he must work under former peer Jose Luis (Alexis Moreno); he doesn't know it, but despite these less-than-ideal conditions, he's fortunate to have brilliant grad student Javier (Camilo Carmona), Roberto's self-declared "biggest fan," as his research assistant. Roberto is staying with his mom, Carmen (Shlomit Baytelman), away from Argentine-born wife Ines (Argentine thesp Julia Martinez Rubio, "Todos Mienten," "Castro"), who makes a surprise visit. This seems to open up a fissure, however, as Osvaldo begins to make moves on Carmen, much to Ines' amusement, and Roberto crosses paths with Jose Luis' wife, Silvia (Paola Giannini), who was Roberto's g.f. a decade ago. This past relationship and a chain of scenes with Ines initiate a flow of memories for Roberto that begin to alter the film's rhythm and even its style at the midpoint. Brahm and his skilled editor, Andres Tambornino, splice and fracture scenes, occasionally producing surprising moments of recognition. But in this approach, which strongly recalls Alain Resnais' more complex cinematic explorations of memory in "Last Year at Marienbad" and "Muriel," Brahm aims but never realizes those "Eureka!" moments that are part of Javier and Roberto's research, and the layered flashbacks fail to draw the viewer into Roberto's character, perhaps because Carvajal's dull, cryptic performance makes him a near-blank. Only Giannini and Baytelman suggest backstories, their performances themselves an artful form of memory work, and Krogh does a solid variation on his usual role as the heavy. Certain dense dialogue passages regarding brain and memory science, replete with technical jargon, are clearly not meant to be comprehended, even on a second viewing. Much like techno-speak in war, sci-fi and thriller pics, the words lend an air of authenticity more important than viewer understanding. Production package is elegant and sleek, with details that suggest a grimy city surrounding the clean lab environments. The 35mm print viewed in Toronto was subpar; upcoming screenings are promised to be pristine.Camera (color, widescreen, HD-to-35mm), Benjamin Echazarreta; editor, Andres Tambornino; music, Miranda & Tobar; production designer, Paola Saavedra; costume designer, Eliza Hormazadal; sound (Dolby Digital), Pablo Gamberg; sound designer, Adriano Salgado; re-recording mixer, Roberto Migone; associate producers, Luis Brahm, Cristobal Brahm; assistant director, Waldo Salgado; casting, Maria Jose San Martin.
