Upcoming movies....

There are some great looking movies coming out... Here are a few I can't wait to see! 
Hyde Park on Hudson (Bill Murray is one of my favorite actors)  
Farewell My Queen  
 The Great Gatsby (anything by Baz Luhrmann will be visually stunning)
I'd love Cyril's opinion :)

Yeah, I would watch any film with Bill Murray in it ! I've read that he doesn't have an agent to represent him. So if directors or producers want to get in touch with him, they have to leave a message on his answering machine !! For Lost in Translation, Sofia Coppola had to convince Al Pacino to talk to Murray in order to get a verbal agreement. But after this, he didn't give any news until one week before shooting began, it was when he finally arrived in Tokyo !!

Farewell My Queen was released in march here. It's a beautiful film, really sensual and powerful. And the three lead actresses are amazing. The three women's portrayals are really strong and moving.

Personnally I don't like Baz Luhrman, Moulin Rouge was too "kitsch" for me and Australia didn't move me at all because of its heavy esthetic which cripples the whole film. And in addition I don't appreciate Nicole Kidman ^^ (except in Dogville and Rabbit Hole).
However, I love The Great Gatsby, and Luhrman's luxuriant style could match very well with the novel. The trailer, for sure, looks impressive ! And the cast is great !
