Trailer: Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

I don't see Oliver Stone returning any sort of substantial form here, but this has the potential to be great trash. Super-slick production, sharp suits, Douglas chewing scenery, and CHARLIE SHEEN (and how about DTV-sounding title?). I fear though, that An Education's Carey Mulligan might get a little lost in all the male-dominated dog-eat-dog corporate shenanigans. There's only a split second shot of her; what is she? Mousy secretary (or Shia LeBeouf's gal?) who discovers Gekko's scheming? Probably. Best trailer moment: the brick mobile phone. Click on the poster to see it:

Lost meets 24

So what's better than a mash-up? When two of your favourite things are being mashed-up, which in this case, is Lost being given the real-time, split-screen 24 treatment. Kinda clever, the actual plane explosion is particularly well-done. Naturally, spoilers for Lost if you haven't seen the show.

Saul Bass on Making Beautiful Things

Dig this inspiring little clip of groundbreaking graphic designer Saul Bass talking about Commerce vs. Aesthetics. He pretty much highlights the problem with a lot of things that pass as cinema these days. A truly great artist...

R.I.P Jean Simmons (1929 - 2010)

The 80-year-old actress, one of the most prominent leading ladies of the 1950s and '60s, had been battling lung cancer and passed away at her Santa Monica home on Friday. Great obit by The Guardian's David Thomson here. Key films to check out: Spartacus, Great Expectations, Black Narcissus and Guys and Dolls.
