Tatum, De Niro, Howard and Gandolfini Set for Montiel’s ‘Son of No One’

Date:

I guess this means that The Brotherhood of the Rose is on ice. Dito Montiel is instead pegging Son of No One as his next project, his third film following 2006’s A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints and this year’s Fighting (you’d have to pay me to watch that one). This would mark the third time that Dito works with Channing Tatum (safe to say they’re friends) and a second straight project with Terence Howard. Also attached are a pair of actors synonymous with “the streets” are Robert De Niro and James Gandolfini. Production is expected to begin in January.

The thriller is about a young cop who is assigned to a precinct in the working class neighborhood where he grew up, and an old secret threatens to destroy his life and his family. Sounds very James Gray if you ask me.

Ken Russell’s The Devils – 2010 Fantasia International Film Festival

Iconic director Ken Russell was in town to receive a lifetime achievement award from Fantasia for his 50-plus years in the business, a career that has spawned many genre classics including Altered States, Gothic, and The Lair of the White Worm. But it was the little-seen and hard to find The Devils from 1971 that proved to be Russell's most controversial work, and Fantasia managed to snag a copy to be screened on Russell's big night. In the video, Russell discusses the true story behind the film and receives his award with the grace befitting one of the great filmmakers of all time.
