Catch up with the idea behind these weekend posts here. Welcome to 2011. I’m back in Los Angeles (missed the crazy weather on this side of the country) and happy to be home after a two-week vacation that really turned out to be anything but. Such is life. And the season is waiting to take [...]

‘King’s Speech’ leads Globe nods, ‘True Grit’ shut out

Amid the club of stars surfacing in two or more 2010 releases — Leonardo DiCaprio, Annette Bening, Chloe Moretz, and so on — has anyone been more ineffectually ubiquitous than Helen Mirren?

CINEJABBER: Drifting along in the same stale shoes
Posted by Kristopher Tapley · 9:44 am · October 16th, 2010
Catch up with the idea behind these weekend posts here. And speaking of the weekend, thank God it’s here. That’s all I can say. I’m still pushing through Peter Weir’s catalogue.
