Trailers for Upcoming Films

Teasing Takashi Miike's Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo.

[Lemmy Caution]

Tony, an Anthony Bourdain biopic from Matt Johnson (Nirvanna: The Band - The Show - The Movie). Dominic Sessa, Antonio Banderas, Emilia Jones, Stavros Halkias.

Is there a reason they named it Tony instead of a more specific title, say Bourdain?
Or Tony the Cook?

I assume it’s because the movie is going to be focused on presenting Bourdain, not as the famous cook, but as just an ordinary kid who slowly becomes shaped into Bourdain

Throughout the film he insists on being called "Tony" whenever someone calls him "Anthony", until the final moments when he is having an interview to attend the Culinary Institute of America

Teasing John Wilson's The History of Concrete.

I wonder if that is inspired by the 1995 Clint Howard film.

You can see elements of it in there but Roth's Ice Cream Man is definitely its own thing and after the debacle of Borderlands it was clearly a joy for him to return to this material. I had the day off so I went to a 10am session where there was only one other person in the cinema who bolted once the violence kicked off. Meanwhile I had an absolute blast, the setup with the idyllic small town tropes was done perfectly to lull you in before unleashing the gore. I found the demented kids and their gleefully horrific killing spree to be hysterical and I love that it follows through without wimping out.

[Mr Sausage]

Primetime, in which the making of the show To Catch a Predator is turned into a pulse pounding thriller of all things.

[Lowry_Sam]

The Only Living Pickpocket In New York

[brundlefly]

Teasing James Gray's Paper Tiger.

[Lowry_Sam]

Not a trailer, but a live-in billboard to advertise The Last House

[brundlefly]

Teasing Marie Kreutzer's Gentle Monster.

[Never Cursed]

Teasing Marie Kreutzer's Gentle Monster.

Just read a description of the premise of the film, which invariably contained a reference to its inspiration - had no idea that the lead male actor in Corsage had been convicted of such an awful crime (NSFW link)

Alex Cox has a new Kickstarter for My Last Movie.

My "last movie" is a Western version of Nicolai Gogol's "Dead Souls". This is a great book, full of irony, mystery and meaning. I plan to shoot in two locations – Almería, Spain, and Tucson, Arizona.
[…] In some ways my last movie is a classic European or “Spaghetti” Western. But it’s other things too. It’s a celebration of the tenacity of its protagonist, of Gogol's novel, and of the fantastic landscapes of Tucson and Tabernas… As with some of my other films, there is both humour and politics. Plus weirdness.
[…] So please, if you enjoyed "Repo Man" or "Straight to Hell" or "Walker", consider backing a "last movie" in the same vein. Cheers!

Trailer.

This will open this weekend at Roxy Cinema in NYC and he's scheduled for one Q&A.
