Relations between the countries of Iran and the United States may be ill at ease, but Iranian cinematic import “A Separation” — just off its Golden Globe Best Foreign Language Film win and a Best Screenplay feting by the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the first such honor from the organization for a foreign film — is capturing the hearts and minds of plenty of American cineastes. The movie is a multi-layered familial drama about a married couple (Peyman Moadi and Leila Hatami) attempting to resolve elder care issues, their teenage daughter’s needs and the potentiality of a divorce when a misunderstanding turned legal problem with their new maid renders these problems secondary. Sophisticated…

Elton John’s husband David Furnish lashed out at Madonna after she won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song for ‘Masterpiece,’ featured in her directorial film debut ‘W.E.,’ TMZ is reporting. Moments after it was announced the singer won the award, Furnish wrote on his Facebook page “Madonna. Best Song???? F**k Off!!!” John was also nominated in the same category, for his collaboration with Lady Gaga on the ‘Gnomeo and Juliet’ song ‘Hello, Hello.’ After John appeared angry when Madonna’s name was read, Furnish continued writing, saying “Madonna winning best Original Song truly shows how these awards have nothing to do with merit. Her acceptance speech was embarrassing in…

‘All About Steve’ lead the ‘winners’ at the 30th annual Golden Raspberry Awards, or Razzies, which were held March 6, the night before the Oscars, at the Barnsdall Gallery Theatre in Los Angeles. Sandra Bullock, who was dis-honored for her role in the summer comedic flop, was the first actress to pick up her award in person since Halle Berry attended the ceremony in 2005 to collect her trophy for ‘Catwoman.’ Bullock, like Berry, is part of a select group of actors who have been nominated for both Academy Awards and Razzies. Bullock was the favorite to win an Oscar for her role in the box office number-one hit ‘The…

This awards season, some of America’s favorite stars have seen their career thrive. But with the announcement of the nominations for the 30th annual Golden Raspberry Awards, or Razzies, Monday morning, the day before the official nominees for this year’s Academy Awards were set to be released, some actors saw their careers come to a screeching halt. Sandra Bullock, who won Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild, and People’s Choice Awards for her portrayal of Leigh Anne Tuohy in the number one box office hit ‘The Blind Side,’ and had the best year of her career with the help of her other number one release ‘The Proposal,’ is nominated for ‘All…

America usually embraces and loves come-backs from former Hollywood favorites, such as Mickey Rourke in his Golden Globe-winning turn last year in ‘The Wrestler.’ But audiences weren’t so quick to overlook Mel Gibson’s shortcomings, as the director and screenwriter’s first movie as an actor in eight years, the crime thriller ‘Edge of Darkness,’ grossed only $17.1 million during its opening weekend. The film, which is the first time Gibson graced the screen since his drunk driving arrest and alleged anti-Semitic rant in 2006, paled in comparison to Liam Neeson’s similarly themed hit ‘Taken.’ That movie made $24.7 million during its opening weekend last year, even though it lost the majority…

British actor Ricky Gervais has hinted that he may bring back his TV series “Extras” for a few more episodes because he misses working on the show. “Extras”, which lasted thirteen episodes, features Gervais portraying an out-of-work actor trying to get jobs, in turn losing them to bigger A-list actors such as Kate Winslet, Sir Ian McKellen and Robert De Niro. He tells Britain’s Zoo Magazine: “Yes, I miss ‘Extras’ more than ‘The Office’. ‘The Office’ had to finish when it did, but I think ‘Extras’ could still go on and on. We created better characters in ‘Extras’. Andy Millman was more real than David Brent by the end of…
