The Venice Film Festival has announced its line up which will include Burn After Reading.

Movieset.com has behind-the-scenes clips from the making of City Island. The site looks cool but then we found this review where they declare they “provides fans with the authentic behind-the-scenes experience they want, without interfering in the production process.” We have a slightly different philosophy I guess. We believe that most people (especially our readers) are respectful enough to actually go to a movie location and get an authentic behind-the-scenes experience without interfering in the production process!

Finally, below is a compilation video of coverage of the premiere of The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants in NYC. (Thanks Ann!)
