Picturenose’s James Drew wants to be a journalist like Russell Crowe in 'State of Play', while Jeremy Slater tells you why you shouldn’t miss Charlie Kaufman’s directorial debut, 'Synecdoche, New York'.Matthew Michael Carnahan and Tony Gilroy have done an excellent job of compressing the three-hour original into a tight, breathless 120 minutes, and the film’s greatest strength lies in its unsensational, sincere approach to the journalist’s daily grind. As with All the President’s Men, State of Play illustrates very well how even the biggest stories are nailed not by lightning flashes of inspiration, but rather the plodding painstaking process of making the calls and getting people on the record. Crowe, on the other side of the coin here from his role in The Insider, is entirely believable as the newshound who’s prepared to put everything on the line, while Mirren excels (she seems incapable of doing otherwise these days) as his increasingly hacked-off boss.
J'espère qu'à l'avenir....
Le soleil,
quand le chant
du matin couvre
le sourire avec
tendre poésies,
paraît la lumière
qui éclaire la
chanson d'un
monde solitaire,
et d'un rêve
infini.....
