STEWART'S 'BREAKING DAWN' PREDICTED TO BE A TOP HOLIDAY MOVIE (BOM)

Box Office Mojo has forecast its Top 12 holiday films. Kristen Stewart's The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 comes in at #2 behind The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

BOM predicts that BD2 will break box office records and land $320 million domestically. BOM writes:

2. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 (Nov. 16) The last Twilight movie earned $281.3 million, which was a bit off from Eclipse's franchise-high $300.5 million. Breaking Dawn Part 2 should wind up significantly higher, though, thanks to its final chapter status (similar to what happened with Harry Potter and the Star Wars prequels), and will likely set a new record. Forecast: $320 million.

The James Bond film Skyfall, Wreck-It Ralph and Rise of the Guardians round out the top 5. Check out their entire list here.

KRISTEN STEWART TO ANNOUNCE
 CECIL B. DEMILE NOMINEE TODAY

UPDATE:  HFPA sent out confirmation via Twitter that Kristen will be announcing the Cecil B. Demille® Award today.

UPDATE: The Hollywood Foreign Press's website could not be accessed late last night  prior to the initial post after the Arciniegas tweet came out and no press release could be located. Therefore, the details of the award could not be ascertained. The schedule is now up, so here is what we could ascertain from HitFix and the LA Times.  

"On Thursday, November 1, 2012 Cecil B. DeMille® Award announcement will take place."  As Juan Carlos Arciniegas of CNN tweeted late yesterday night, Kristen Stewart "was invited" to present the nominee for the award alongside Australian actor and 'The Mentalist' star Simon Baker.

"The Cecil B. DeMille Award has a long and storied history. The award was first handed out in 1952 and has been presented every year since (except for 1976). The first winner was DeMille himself, and some other notable winners include Judy Garland, Sydney Poitier, and Alfred Hitchcock." ~ Hitfix

The LA Times defines the award as follows:

"The Cecil B. DeMille Award is given, according to the HFPA, to "talented individuals who have made an incredible impact on the world of entertainment." 

Morgan Freeman, Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg are past recipients.

The 70th Annual Golden Globe Awards will be held on January 13th, 2013 and will be hosted by NBC comedy stars Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.

"The HFPA represent 55 countries with a combined readership of 250 million in some of the world's most respected publications. Each year, the organization holds the third most watched awards show on television, the Golden Globe® Awards." ~ HFPA

TOBY JONES SHOWS HITCHCOCK'S DARK SIDE AS OBSESSION & 

SEXUAL HARASSMENT TAKES CENTER STAGE IN 'THE GIRL'

Conversation #2 (About the film)

"After a private screening of HBO's "The Girl" held for Tippi Hedren, her friends and family, including daughter Melanie Griffith, the reaction was silence. Make that stunned silence, as the room took in the film's depiction of a scorned, vindictive Alfred Hitchcock physically and emotionally abusing Hedren during production of "The Birds." ~ Associated Press


Toby Jones plays the formidable director Alfred Hitchcock in HBO's latest film called The Girl.  The Girl, tells the story of the relationship between Hitchcock and actress Tippie Hedren (played by Sienna Miller) who starred in the Hitchcock/Universal films The Birds and Marnie.

Jones's haunting performance in this tale of obsession shows what led to the demise of Hedren's career.  The Girl will make one never look at a Hitchcock film in the same way again.   

The story shows how Hedren (who was approximately 31 years his junior) had to continuously stave off Hitchcock's obsessive sexual advances and then having to deal with his vengeance against her.  In today's terms, Hitchcock's so-called "obsession" would be defined as pure "sexual harassment" which blatantly paraded in front of cast and crew.

JOHNNY HARRIS TALKS DWARVES, QUERT, STEWART & SWATH

Johnny Harris

SWATH's Johnny Harris provides another insightful interview this time with The Big Issue which was in conjunction of the DVD release.

Harris talks about the working on SWATH and the comradely between the actors.  One can see that Harris enjoyed working on SWATH.  


Are you tired of answering questions about dwarves already? 

 No, it’s funny. Different projects have different atmospheres. They can be very intense depending on the material but with Snow White we were able to have a hell of a lot of fun. I imagine it could be difficult trying to sell a film or talk about a film you don’t quite believe in. Actually that’s a really telling word: selling. If you have to talk about a film you didn’t particularly enjoy the experience of making it then it will feel like selling it, but when you’ve had a really enjoyable experience it feels like you’re having a chat about good times.


Good times and fairytales. 

Fairytales are the great stories and as actors we are storytellers so to take part in a fairytale is as good as it gets. 


Unless it’s pantomime. 

People know the story so they want to see something different, otherwise why retell it?


How is Snow White and the Huntsman different to other versions of the fairytale? 

 It’s epic. I guess that could be used for most versions, including the Disney version, but this is definitely epic in scale. With some films you hope an audience will see the little subtle things you’ve done. With this I would say to people, get your popcorn, get comfy, find the biggest screen you can, sit back and let it wash over you. But there is darkness in there. Fairytales were originally tools for adults. They would sit around a fire and use them to study and ponder the human psyche. 



Harris talks about working with SWATH's 'Snow White' Kristen Stewart and how they [dwarves] formed a bond: 

And how is Kristen Stewart to work with? 

 For such a young lady to be steering the size of ship she was, she’s amazing. She just got her sleeves rolled up and stuck in. She’s very diligent, very inclusive. We were a real unit. We formed a real bond. 


Harris also talks about working with the legendary actor Bob Hoskins as well as the other distinguished British actors who were the dwarves:



It must have been a privilege to be part of a dwarf gang alongside Bob Hoskins, Ray Winstone, Ian McShane… 

 I said to Ray one day on set that if it wasn’t for the likes of him and Bob Hoskins it wouldn’t have been possible for me to enter the profession. But Ray said it was exactly the same for him, and he went back to people like Michael Caine, even further to Charlie Chaplin. With these guys I can quote lines from their films so to be standing next to them and performing was kind of dreamlike. Going home after work and explaining what had happened that day was like explaining a weird dream. Ray Winstone was there… Bob Hoskins was there… We were in a forest - but we were all dwarves, and Kristen Stewart was crying… It was surreal.


What do the dwarves represent then? 

 It’s interesting. I don’t think it’s as linear as that. We’re not as linear as Sleepy and Grumpy and Happy but they’ve all got their individual traits. They have a back history. 

Does it take more than one word to describe your character? 

I play Qwert and he’s quite a sensitive soul actually. Some of the other guys are a bit more hardened, a bit more grizzled. A bit more scared I’d say. I think all people who are angry have fear underneath somewhere. They were a very proud race a very proud species of men who were miners historically. They used to go in down into the mine for a specific purpose – it’s because they could seek out beauty in darkness; gold in that darkness. They lost that. The queen stripped them of their pride and dignity and they’re the last left of their breed. They roamed the forest pillaging and robbing and surviving and then they meet Snow White and she represents that part of their past that they once had.
