NXNE FILM Presents ECSTASY

From the mind of Irvine Welsh, author of Trainspotting, this film adaptation of his book Ecstasy: Three Tales of Chemical Romance was recently announced as a Gala Presentation at this summer's NXNE Film Festival.

Shot in Toronto and Sault Ste. Marie, as well as Scotland and The Netherlands, the film centres around the club scene of the 90's, and the lives of those involved with the drug of choice.

Further details, along with the trailer, can be seen at the NXNE site:

Moonrise Kingdom

Coming this May, is the new Wes Anderson film, Moonrise Kingdom. From the looks of the just-released trailer shown below, it appears to be another interesting production from the mind that brought you Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, and The Fantasic Mr. Fox. Wes, along with Roman Coppola (writer of The Darjeeling Limited), brings us all to summer camp to experience what appears to be a first crush.

A star-studded ensemble cast includes Bill Murray (an Anderson regular), Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, Harvey keitel, and Jason Schwartzman.

Until the Spring comes, (or a second trailer), we have this two minute glimpse into what's to come. Enjoy.




March 16, 2012 - It has been announced that Moonrise Kingdom will be the Opening Film at this year's Cannes Film Festival on May 16.
