Based on the ESPN 30 FOR 30 documentary podcast THE STERLING AFFAIRS, the six-part miniseries CLIPPED chronicles the 2013-2014 debacle surrounding the Clippers basketball team. This resulted in the Clippers’ then-owner being banned for life from the NBA. The first two episodes premiere on FX on Hulu on Tuesday, June 4, with subsequent episodes dropping on consecutive Tuesdays. Adapted for Hulu by Gina Welch, CLIPPED follows what happened when racist, adulterous, erratic realty mogul/lawyer/then-Clippers owner Donald Sterling (Ed O’Neill) hired Doc Rivers (Laurence Fishburne) to coach the team. At the same time, Sterling’s wife Shelly (Jacki Weaver) develops a rivalry […]Read On »

Interview: THE GIRL actor Toby Jones on playing Alfred Hitchcock

In THE GIRL, which re-airs on HBO this week, Toby Jones plays filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock. It’s not an especially flattering view of the director/producer, as it deals with his unwanted fascination with actress Tippi Hedren (played in THE GIRL by Sienna Miller), who starred in THE BIRDS and MARNIE for Hitchcock. The London-born Jones is almost always working. A few recent credits include TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY, CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER, MY WEEK WITH MARILYN, THE HUNGER GAMES and the voice of Dobby in HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS, PT. 1. Speaking briefly about THE GIRL, Jones says […]Read On »

At this point in time it’s just a discussion for development.” BATTLE ROYALE (about ninth graders fighting to the death […]Read On »

The Great HUNGER GAMES Rip-Off

They say that there are only seven stories, aka plots, and that every story we’ve ever read, heard, or seen in a film, is either one of those seven, or a combination of one or more of them. Proof of this was recently hammered home in a big way via the AVATAR/POCAHONTAS/FERNGULLY debacle. While I’m a big fan of mash-ups, aka taking elements of several existing stories, lyrics, or melodies, and making them into one new-ish one, I do find it odd that with all the hoopla surrounding this season’s darling, THE HUNGER GAMES – no one seems to remember […]Read On »
