New Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children Trailer – Tim Burton takes us into a magical time loop

June 20, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

miss-peregrine-character-poster1-slideFrom the look of this trailer, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children may see Tim Burton back in proper Tim Burton-y form, bringing a touch of gothic to a strange tale. It certainly looks like it might be pretty entertaining.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘From visionary director Tim Burton, and based upon the best-selling novel, comes an unforgettable motion picture experience. When his beloved grandfather leaves Jake clues to a mystery that spans different worlds and times, he finds a magical place known as Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. But the mystery and danger deepen as he gets to know the residents and learns about their special powers…and their powerful enemies. Ultimately, Jake discovers that only his own special “peculiarity” can save his new friends.

‘Based on the bestselling novel by Ransom Riggs, MISS PEREGRINE’S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN stars Eva Green, Asa Butterfield, Chris O’Dowd, Ella Purnell, Allison Janney, Rupert Everett, Terence Stamp, with Judi Dench and Samuel L. Jackson and will arrive in UK cinemas September 30 in 3D and 2D.’

Big Eyes (Blu-ray Review)

April 19, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Amy Adams, Christoph Waltz, Danny Huston, Krysten Ritter, Terence Stamp
Director: Tim Burton
Running Time: 106 mins
Certificate: 12
Release Date: March 20th 2015 (UK)

Except for a few moments, Big Eyes is Tim Burton’s least Tim Burton-y movie for a long time. In fact it’s a relatively low key and straightforward affair which relies on the fact it’s got an interesting story to tell and knows that when you have actors like Amy Adams and Christoph Waltz, it’s often best to just get out of their way and allow them to shine.

The film tells the true story of Margaret (Adams), who leaves her husband and heads for San Francisco with her young daughter where she hopes to make money from her art. That proves difficult, until she meets Walter Keane (Waltz), who also selling paintings and charms her with his stories of studying at a prestigious Parisian art school. [Read more…]

Terence Stamp Up For Tim Burton’s Big Eyes

July 1, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

terrence-stampTim Burton is leaving the fantastical behind for his next movie, and doing something slightly different but potentially just as interesting. He’s already added Christoph Waltz, Amy Adams, Danny Huston, Krysten Ritter and Jason Schwartzman to the cast of Big Eyes, and now Terence Stamp has signed up too, according to THR.

Adams is set to play artist Margaret Keane, whose paintings of large-eyed children were massively popular in the 1950s and 1960s. Christoph Waltz is playing her husband Walter, who initially claimed he was behind the paintings. However, Margaret later claimed she was the true artist behind all the big-eyed paintings, and that the rather pompous and self-obsessed Walter (who spoke about himself in the third person and compared himself to Rembrandt and El Greco) stole all the credit for her work.

It set off a long running dispute between the two which ended in court battles, and a rather dramatic moment in court where the judge asked both to do some painting. Walter refused to do so because of a pain in his arm, but Margaret quickly crafted one of her trademark paintings.

Terence Stamp will portray New York Times art critic John Canaday, who despises Walter and his rise to prominence. Tim Burton is directing from a screenplay by Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski, who previously wrote Ed Wood for the director, along with notable biopics such as The People vs. Larry Flynt and Man on the Moon.

Terence Stamp Joining Anchorman 2 As A Media Mogul?

February 15, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

terrence-stampAnchorman 2 is gearing up to shoot (last we heard it was going to start filming next month) and now AintItCool suggests Terence Stamp might join the movie.

The website got the info from the actor himself at a screening of Song For Marion. Stamp told them he’d been chatting with “Will Ferrell’s people”, and that he’s up for playing a “Rupert Murdoch-type figure” in the movie. Terrence added that he’d love to do it, but as yet there hasn’t been a formal offer.

There’s been little news on the plot for Anchorman 2, although we do know Ferrell, Paul Rudd and Steve Carrell are returning, with Kristen Wiig recently signing up.

At the same event, Stamp also mentioned that he’s written a “loose sequel” to The Limey. However we’re unlikely ever to see it as the project halted when both Soderbergh and Christie retired from the business, and he isn’t sure if we’ll ever see it.

New Song For Marion/Unfinished Song Trailer – Gemma Arterton gets Terrence Stamp to sing ‘Let’s Talk About Sex’

January 4, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


It appears that while the film Song For Marion is sticking with that title in the UK, in the US it’s going to be known as Unfinished Song, as that’s the name this American trailer gives for the movie. Whatever it’s called, it looks corny but potentially fun, with Gemma Arterton getting a bunch of old folks to sing.

The film is a London-set comedic drama about grumpy pensioner Arthur (Terence Stamp) who is reluctantly inspired by his beloved wife Marion (Vanessa Redgrave) to join a highly unconventional local choir. At odds with his son James (Christopher Eccleston), it is left to choir director Elizabeth (Gemma Arterton) to try and persuade Arthur that he can learn to embrace life. Arthur must confront the undercurrents of his own grumbling persona as he embarks on a hilarious, life-affirming journey of musical self discovery.

It hits UK cinemas on February 8th.

Ahead of its debut as the London Film Festival, the trailer for Song For Marion has arrived. The film is a London-set comedic drama about grumpy pensioner Arthur (Terence Stamp) who is reluctantly inspired by his beloved wife Marion (Vanessa Redgrave) to join a highly unconventional local choir.
