Book Club (DVD Review) – A cast of living legends reads Fifty Shades of Grey

October 7, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen, Mary Steenburgen
Director: Bill Holderman
Running Time: 104 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: October 8th 2018

For decades four female friends have been getting together for a monthly book club. However, while this started when they were in their youth, they now all facing the fact they’re aging. Diane (Diane Keaton) is a relatively recent widow being pressured by her daughters to move to nearer to them in Arizona, as they think she’s too old to manage by herself. Carol (Mary Steenburgen) is stuck in a rut with her husband, while federal judge Sharon (Candice Bergen) has completely given up on the idea of either love or sex. Finally there’s Vivian (Jane Fonda), a woman who’s never had a problem finding sex but has always disdained the idea of settling down with one person.

Rather than their typical book club novels, the quartet decide to read Fifty Shades Of Grey. After discovering the Red Room shenanigans that Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele get up to, the four women start to shake up their own lives. That may not involve BDSM, but it does set them thinking about what they really want from their remaining years. [Read more…]

March 4, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

You’ve certainly got to hope that with a cast including Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen, and Mary Steenburgen, Book Club will be a lot of fun. It’s also got a potentially fun concept, with the quartet of actress playing friends who’ve started a book club to improve their minds.

However, they get more than expected when they start reading 50 Shades Of Grey, which opens their minds to new possibilities. Craig T. Nelson, Andy Garcia and Don Johnson also star in the movie, which is due in cinemas in May.

May 30, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Mary-SteenburgenMary Steenburgen always adds value to a cast, and she’ll hopefully be doing that in Song One, as Deadline reports that she’s in talks to join the music-centred drama Song One, for writer-director Kate Barker-Froyland.

Anne Hathaway is already on-board to play a woman who returns home when her brother is injured and starts up a relationship with his favourite musician, James Forrester (played by Lotus Eaters star Johnny Flynn), while also coping with her family issues. Steenburgen is set to be Hathaway’s mother.

The current plan is to shoot Song One this summer, so expect it in cinemas sometime next year. Steenburgen will next be seen in Last Vegas, alongside Robert De Niro and Michael Douglas.

Mary Steenburgen Is Going To Last Vegas

August 13, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Mary Steenburgen in an Oscar-winning actress who it always feels should be in more and better films than she is. Now she’s just joined a high-profile project for Hollywood’s aging stars, Last Vegas.

The movie is about Billy (Michael Douglas), a longtime ladies man who is finally settling down and getting married in Las Vegas, to a woman half his age. Robert De Niro, Morgan Freeman, and Kevin Kline are playing Billy’s old friends who reunite in Sin City for the nuptials. Unsurprisingly, the film is being sold as an old guys’ The Hangover.

Mary Steenburgen will play Diana, a Vegas lounge singer who gets too close to Billy before his wedding. Diana also becomes involved in a bizarre love triangle when Robert De Niro’s Paddy takes an interest in her as well.

Jon Turteltaub is directing from a screenplay by Dan Fogelman. Shooting will begin this fall in Las Vegas. (Source: Deadline)
