After North Korea threatened 9/11-style violence at movie theaters that would screen Sony's "The Interview" comedy, most theater chains dropped the film, which then causes Sony to officially announce that "The Interview" will not be released theatrically. But after pressure from President Obama, lots of Hollywood actors and the general public, Sony has decided to release "The Interview" on December 25th is select theaters, but will not provide any security. One theater owner said: "It's not so much that we believed anyone from North Korea would be running into theaters with an Ak-47, but more that there enough people around the country who are mentally unstable who might use this as an excuse to do something." As a result, most theaters will have extra security and not allow backpacks or large overcoats. Seth Rogen commented on the decision to release the film, stating: "The people have spoken! Freedom has prevailed!

50th Anniversary Release of “The Beatles: A Hard Day’s Night”
Dir. Richard Lester • U.K. 1964 • Black & White • 1.75:1 • 87 minutes
New 4K Restoration from the Original Camera Negative
New 5.1 Surround Mix Produced by Giles Martin
Opening in theaters on July 4, 2014 in almost 100 cities
(Scroll to the end of the article for the locations and theaters).

This is a Cheeky, Raucous, Irreverent film that will make most warm-blooded mammals laugh from the first scene, until the last! It is brilliant for a summer night out!
If you are a film or music fan, you most likely have already seen “A Hard Day’s Night” before, however, make a summertime date with the famous Fab Four, and see it again on the big screen, with the new restoration, at an art house cinema, and you really can’t go wrong.
It is necessary to give accolades to the King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley, because, “if it weren’t for Elvis, there would never have been any Beatles.” John Lennon had admitted, that from the moment he first learned about Elvis and saw all the attention that he was receiving, he wanted to be just like him.
So although, there is no denying that the Beatles changed music forever, it was really Elvis who was the King of their inspiration.
For those who have not seen “A Hard Day’s Night” before, the Beatles had already been a popular recording act, with several Top 20 hits in the U.K., when they arrived in NYC to perform on the Ed Sullivan show on February 7, 1964. A record breaking 73 million viewers tuned in, and the British invasion began.
One month later, across the pond, the film was in the works. The music lover and film producer, Walter Shenson, was brought on by United Artists. Shenson, who had previously worked with Director, Richard Lester, on “The Mouse on the Moon,” mentioned the gist of the project, and Richard jumped at the opportunity.
However, to receive the final green light, the film had to be true to the way the Beatles actually lived, and scriptwriter, Alun Owen, who wrote the television play, “No Trams to Lime Street,” which depicted Liverpool, was chosen.
The film begins with the song “A Hard Day’s Night” playing while the Fab Four are running through town trying to make it to the train station on time before their train departs. Once on board, they start a conversation with an older gentleman, who Paul comments, is his grandfather. John is cheekily trying to snort a Coke (Coca-Cola) bottle up his nose in the background, and a business man wants the train car his way demanding that the windows be closed shut. The laughs just continue from there on out, when the boys are flirting with girls, and the grandfather cunningly tells the young women that the boys are really prisoners. An acoustic version of “I Should Have Known Better” is being played on the train.
Film director, Richard Lester, “relied on improvisation rather than rehearsal, creating a freshness that was clear on-screen.” “Before we started, we knew that it would be unlikely that they could (a) learn, (b) remember, or (c) deliver with any accuracy a long speech. So the structure of the script had to be a series of one-liners,” Lester later stated, “This enabled me, in many of the scenes, to turn a camera on them and say a line to them, and they would say it back to me.”
The result, the bandmates play brilliant, clever, crafty, and smart-alicky versions of themselves.
Lester’s visual style mixed techniques from narrative films, documentary, the French New Wave, and live television to create something that felt, and was, spontaneous. “I have seen directors who write down a list of scenes for the day, and then sit back in a chair while everything is filmed according to plan. I can’t do that. I know that good films can be made this way, but it’s not for me. I have to react on the spot. There was very little structure that was planned except that we knew that we had to punctuate the film with a certain number of songs.”
Recorded at Emi Studios in Abbey Road, London, they cut “Can’t Buy Me Love,” “And I Love Her,” “I Should Have Known Better,” “Tell Me Why,” “If I Fell,” and “I’m Happy Just to Dance with You,” in only three days.

I’m flying to Tacoma, Wa. tomorrow for the annual 25 New Faces event at the Grand Cinema, but before I depart I’m posting here a quick, video-driven guide to the talented people I’ll be hanging out with over the coming days. (Thanks to Nathan Jones and Dante Pilkington for helping to put this post together.) There’s a lot to dig into below, so enjoy. Anahita Ghazvinizadeh Below is the trailer for Ghazvinizadeh’s most recent Cannes-winning short, Needle, and you can watch her 2011 short When the Kid was a Kid here.

Hong Kong – When director Zack Snyder and the new Superman Henry Cavill flew into Shanghai to attend the Chinese gala premiere of Man of Steel, they appeared neither at the city’s landmark classical theater -- the 85-year-old Grand Cinema -- nor at the city's usual main cinematic hub, the Shanghai Film Art Center, which hosts the red-carpet premieres of the local annual international film festival. Instead, their screening took place at the Ume International Complex, a cineplex located in one of the flashiest and most cosmopolitan malls in downtown Shanghai. In a sense, this arrangement has mirrored the way the

Run by Grand Cinema employee Justin Giallo (pictured), Grindhouse Theater has been an eight years-in the-making dream. Through blood, sweat and tears, what was once a single showing of The Evil Dead has turned into an exploitation extravaganza, with movies ranging from Cannnibal Ferox to Phantasm. Recently, Grindhouse had a special X-Mas showing of the original Silent Night, Deadly Night, accompanied by a special horror bazaar for those hard-to-shop for relatives. But it's not all gore and screams; Grindhouse peppers each night with a slew of extra goodies like t-shirt and magazine give-a-ways. If you're lucky, you might even be able to catch a live Skype with an actor from one of the movies on the big screen before the flick. If you ever find yourself in the Seattle area, be sure to take a quick trip south and check out this local haunt.
Next showing: Dario Argento's Profondo Rosso/Deep Red,...

The funny thing about film festivals is that there never seems to be enough time to talk about the films you’ve just seen. Distribution strategies, yes, industry gossip, most definitely, but the actual creative decisions and approaches involved in making the films themselves – barely! So the Grand Cinema’s mini-festival celebrating Filmmaker‘s 25 New Faces of Independent Film in Tacoma, Wa, last month felt like a truly rare treat.
Bringing together 14 of the actors and filmmakers or filmmaking teams on the list, including myself and Katherine Fairfax Wright, my directing partner on Call Me Kuchu, The Grand Cinema scheduled five days of screenings that allowed us to leisurely take in and discuss each other’s works.
It was an idyllic long weekend of films, food, lake-side Frisbee, and far too much popcorn, with more than a hint of all the good bits of summer camp (or Woodcraft camp, for...

Last week in the Filmmaker newsletter, I mentioned the wonderful “25 New Faces” screening series which has run annually at The Grand Cinema in Tacoma, Washington, since 2010. During that time, under the loving stewardship of the Grand’s Executive Director Philip Cowan, it has continued to grow and thrive, and this year 20 of the 25 New Faces will be in Tacoma, attending the 2012 series (running August 17 to 23) with their work — and meeting each other for the first time.
I’m very sad that I’m not able to be there this week, as the series represents a phenomenal gathering together of great films and filmmakers that we are extremely passionate about at Filmmaker. However, hopefully readers in the greater Seattle area will take the opportunity to attend, and then share your experiences in the comments section below. Cowan, who is arguably the biggest champion of the “25 New Faces” outside of the Filmmaker offices,...

Last year we were flattered when The Grand Cinema in Tacoma, Washington asked if they could put together a screening series of our 2010 25 New Faces of Independent Film. It was an amazing turnout with The Grand screening films from 22 of the 25 and 11 of the filmmakers making the trip to attend.
Well, The Grand is doing it again! Beginning this Friday and running until the 25th, The Grand Cinema will screen 20 works from this year’s 25 and it sounds like they will once again have a bunch of the filmmakers on hand. If you live in Tacoma or are close by we hope you head on over to check it out. And a very special thanks to The Grand’s executive director, Philip Cowan, for orchestrating the series for a second year.

At the ripe, old age of nearly twelve, Paloma (Garance Le Guillermic) has decided that life is futile, and riddled with ridiculous hypocrisy, and she's decided to opt out. What's moving, telling, and ultimately brilliant about her decision is that her plan to kill herself on her next birthday is perhaps one of the most thought out, and well-reasoned decisions she has run across.
The daughter of wealthy parents - a father who, very "averagely," spends so much time on work, that he has little left to spend with his family, and a mother who talks to her plants more than anyone else, has quite the cocktail of "therapy helpers," and is the purpose behind creating the phrase, "flitting about the house" - Paloma can find little about life that makes an argument for meaningful connection... with anything.
Wise miles beyond her years, Paloma has decided to make...
