LOVE AND OTHER IMPOSSIBLE PURSUITS Movie Pictures with Natalie Portman

Check out a couple of pictures from LOVE AND OTHER IMPOSSIBLE PURSUITS starring Natalie Portman, Scott Cohen, Lisa Kudrow, Charlie Tahan, and directed by Don Roos.
I first heard of this film back in February when I posted some pictures from the set with Natalie Portman and Scott Cohen, but at the time the movie was called 17 Photos of Isabel. Now it seems that they changed it to the original title of the book that it is based on. Either way, I'm sold.
Unfortunately, there is no release date for the film yet, but you can catch it at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival this month.

Love and Other Impossible Pursuits Synopsis: Families never turn out quite according to plan, and Emilia Greenleaf (Portman) certainly never imagined herself the shunned stepmother. But after winning Jack (Scott Cohen) away from his wife Carolyn (Lisa Kudrow), she finds herself immersed in the cross-currents [...]

PAPER MAN Movie Review (LA Film Fest)

PAPER MAN (5 out of 5 stars)
Paper Man was the opening movie at the 2009 Los Angeles Film Festival, and all I can say is that it was a great choice.
Paper Man tells the story of Richard Dunn (Jeff Daniels) a failed author whose wife, Claire (Lisa Kudrow), a successful surgeon, rents a house in New Jersey in order to help him get over his writer's block.

During one of his outings to town, he meets Abby (Emma Stone) a Long Island teen who feels as lonely as he does. A friendship between the two begins a la "Lost in Translation" which helps both of them deal with their lives [...]

PAPER MAN Preview Videos with Jeff Daniels

Update: Unfortunately, we were asked to bring the clips down. The good news is the reason for it is because the movie is in the process of being sold and, without boring you too much, copyright will eventually change owners. Hopefully we'll have a trailer soon though.
Check out four video clips from PAPER MAN starring Jess Daniels, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds, Lisa Kudrow, Hunter Parrish, Kieran Culkin, and directed by Kieran Mulroney and Michele Mulroney.
Paper Man was the opening movie at the 2009 Los Angeles Film Festival and it's a really awesome movie. I am working on my review and should have it up soon so keep an eye out for that.
In the meantime check out the four clips from Paper Man below. In the first clip you'll get to see Ryan Reynolds as Captain Excellent, which is probably the best part of the movie. In the third one [...]
