As Peter Knegt (yes, I will always say again-and again- that he's my favorite net writer) says, summer is over! (I'm so glad!) not necessarily by the calendar but certainly when it comes to festivals and movies. For many of us tomorrow the fall festival season starts with La Mostra/La Biennale/Venice Film Festival and the 2011 award season already started.
But Mr. Knegt today delighted readers with his Must See Films for the American fall and even if there are some that will not be must be seen for me (but surely will watch), we agree with many like -for example- Aronofsky's Black Swan (he says, "think of it as a violent, sexual, ballet world update of "All About Eve" -wow! - I know have to control expectations); Sylvain Chomet's The Illusionist (the follow-up of extraordinary The Triplets of Belleville"); Schnabel's Miral; Julie Taymor's The Tempest; hmm... he's talking about Heartbreaker, maybe should watch it, with Romain Duris, Vanessa Paradis); Allen's You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger; and others that could be interesting.

By the way, the other favorite net writer, Anne Thompson is in Venice, so hope she does more than just reviewing movies, which will allow us to enjoy more the fest. Well, well... today she also has an interesting column "Critic vs. Critic: The Changing Landscape of Movie Coverage"... yep, about the many Internet "informal" critics/reviewers ... like me (LOL!). Suggest to read the article here.

Burlesque - Update
10:30 AM
indigo
Not really ready to be back to 'normal' but today I got the first indispensable element: a fast internet connection! I'm SO happy like child with a brand new toy!!! My stuff hasn't arrive and will not for a long while, but I'm ready to start posting.
Yesterday watched this movie trailer on TV and definitively is a must be seen for me (for entertainment purposes). Some early critics are saying that the film will be a long-length "Lady Marmelade" video from Moulin Rouge ... others say it's Christina's version of 'A Star is Born'... I say that if is both, the film will be just GREAT!
Here is the trailer so you don't have to go to the trailer blog.

I need to close the day on a better note (to cheer me up a little) so I'm going to share about a movie that will be released around Thanksgiving 2010, Burlesque.
If Cannes had Amalric's Tournee, about a Burlesque troupe 'lost' in provincial France (that has to be deliciously/gloriously decadent), Hollywood has its own version but the huge difference is who's starring. After almost 10 years Cher is back to the big screen and no matter whatever everybody says, she looks great! The other lead is the movie debut of Christina Aguilera, that from the few clips available looks as great as in that famous music video from Moulin Rouge. Then we have Kristen Bell with raven black hair looking different. Also starring Stanley Tucci in a role that somehow I imagine similar to Amalric's in Tournee...
Definitively interesting enough to become must be seen for me. Check an interview with some movie clips.
