27 October 2009 7:44 AM, PDT | t5m.com | See recent t5m.com news »

Despite having starred in the likes of Starter for Ten, Alice Eve isn't just a film actress - she has also taken to the stage as an actress in the Tom Stoppard play, Rock ' N ' Roll. Speaking exclusively to t5m, Alice tells us all about the inspiration an actor needs  - and how this inspiration is interwined with the day - to - day happenings in an actor's life... Speaking about Rock ' N ' Roll, Alice explains how it deals with issues like communism and the indie revolution from 1968-1990, whilst at the same time mirroring the state we are currently in. Heavy stuff! »

Cry me a…pond?

27 October 2009 7:40 AM, PDT | t5m.com | See recent t5m.com news »

Alice Eve , the daughter of actors Trevor Eve and Sharon Maughan speaks exclusively to t5m about the challenges of acting, mainly, how she struggles to cry on cue. Alice tells us that when she knows she has an emotional scene she has to prepare in advance by being in a grump. Alice tells us that she stays in this mood for days, and finds it hard to return to planet happy immediately. She goes on to say that scenes such as these, as well as love scenes take some degree of preperation. You can only prepare 50% and the other 50% depends on the other person you are in the scene with. It's easy to fall in love with your fellow actor, she tells t5m, and even easier to fall out of love with them! »

Acting clueless

27 October 2009 7:32 AM, PDT | t5m.com | See recent t5m.com news »

In an exclusive interview with t5m, Alice Eve tells us how she was very demanding from a young age, and that she pleaded with her parents to let her act. They, however, were adamant that she go to university and complete her degree. Nonetheless, Alice won the argument (eventually!) and was able to take a gap year in Los Angeles to pursue her dreams at the Beverley Hill Playhouse. Her soul search left her 'fatter' than she would have liked, and unexpectedly jobless. She returned to England clueless as to what she wanted to do. In the end, she decided to go to Oxford University to read English- meeting her parents halfway. Good compromise! Alice also tells us that her proudest moment at university was starring in the production of 'Scenes from an Execution' ...not graduating from the world's most prestigious University, wow? »

Wee still love you Eve

27 October 2009 7:30 AM, PDT | t5m.com | See recent t5m.com news »

Aspiring actress and script writer, Alice Eve reveals how she desperately wanted to be a child actor, so desperate in fact that her audition for The Secret Garden led to something rather embarrassing...! It was totally unconscious, she reveals to t5m, but it was all she could think throughout her whole audition! Alice also talks about the creative make up of every individual, and how different we all are. Alice tells us that her friends are brilliant painters because it is within them, but that if she learned to paint she would never be as good as them, regardless of the number of lessons she has! We don't think Alice should be so humble! »

Sex and the City 2 attracts another hottie

13 October 2009 1:14 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Alice Eve has joined the cast of the in production Sex And The City 2, according to trade reports this morning. We're digging around to find info on Ms. Eve, and here it is. She is the daughter of Trevor Eve and Sharon Maughn, she was born in the year 1982, and her favourite colour is a peachey orange. Actually, I don't know if that last one is true. Eve has appeared in a bunch of Brit flicks including the James McAvoy starring Starter For Ten, and the Simon Pegg comedy Big Nothing, which it literally was. She does appear in the upcoming Harisson Ford flick Crossing Over though.

In Sex 2, Eve will play a nanny to Charlotte's baby, who apparently causes tension among the ladies. Shooting is underway on the chick flick, which is out next summer. Can't hardly wait.

[DVD Review] Crossing Over

11 June 2009 10:11 PM, PDT | JustPressPlay.net | See recent JustPressPlay news »

Crossing Over begs the audience to take it seriously. It wants to make an impact on you so badly despite its hollow shell of a narrative. Obviously inspired by the immigration “crisis” which had the United States broiling with racial discomfort, Crossing Over tries to capitalize on all of the stirred emotions still floating about – only to find the waters cooled and tempers no longer quite so high. The audience the film needed in order to succeed no longer existed; its opportunistic theme staled before Harrison Ford’s laughably clichéd first lines of dialogue rolled out. Perhaps that’s why the film feels like a mixed bag of preaching and shock and awe instead of a rational argument for or against strict immigration control.

Crossing Over spends its time divided between five connected narratives and attempts to ply its messages of cultural integration, manipulation and corruption with each one. Max »

Movie Review - 'Crossing Over'

20 March 2009 1:39 AM, PDT | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »

Crossing Over

Starring Harrison Ford, Ray Liotta, and Ashley Judd

Directed by Wayne Kramer

Rated R

Immigration is a thorny issue with no quick, easy, or perfect solution. How do you juggle talk of a wall along our border with the promise of America? How do you keep everyone out when the Statue of Liberty asks for your tired, poor, and huddled masses? How do you stop immigration in a nation of immigrants?

Conversely, an approach that takes all comers has at least as many problems as the one that wants restrictions. Jobs, crime, medical care and costs, insurance, and overpopulation are some of the concerns that America faces after living with a fairly lax immigration policy.

Crossing Over tries to tackle the problem in two hours, which would be difficult to pull off if writer-director Wayne Kramer had kept his new film limited to one or two stories of »

Review: Crossing Over

28 February 2009 8:03 AM, PST | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

Wayne Kramer's Crossing Over is a bad movie, but it's not bad in the usual ways. The camerawork doesn't shake, boom mikes don't dip into the frame, and the actors tend to remember their lines. The story moves forward in a reasonably cohesive way. On most levels it even resembles a good movie. In fact, it very closely resembles something that once won an Oscar for Best Picture: Crash (2005). Like that movie, It tells the story of a cross-section of characters in Los Angeles, all of whom are connected in some way to a sticky issue, immigration this time, rather than racism. Harrison Ford leads the way as Max Brogan, an Ice agent whose colleagues often tease him for being a softie. During a raid on a sweatshop, his heart goes out to a woman, Mireya Sanchez (Alice Braga), who claims to have a young son at home. He nearly lets her go, »

Someone To Alien On

26 February 2009 8:28 PM, PST | NYPost.com | See recent New York Post news »

Just when you thought it was safe to avoid "message" pictures and Oscar hopefuls, here comes Wayne Kramer's "Crossing Over," a bid to create the "Crash" of illegal-immigration dramas.

Like that Oscar winner, this film is set in a Los Angeles where the characters in several story lines handily keep running into each other - although in this case they're all stereotypes who spout tin-eared dialogue.

This is a movie with the courage to examine the pressing issue of whether hot blond Aussie starlets are sleeping with government agents - whom they meet »

"An American Affair"

We're a country enamored with the marvels of our great democracy while also continuing a nasty habit of cultivating political dynasties, the thrall of which we continue to find irresistible, and there is no finer example of that than the Kennedy family. Put out by tiny indie distributor Screen Media Films, this feature from director William Olsson charts the coming of age of a young boy named Adam (Cameron Bright) who watches and wonders about John F. Kennedy's affair with a woman (Gretchen Mol) living across the street in 1963.

Opens in limited release. »

Spring Preview: A Guide to the Season in Indie Film

18 February 2009 2:25 PM, PST | ifc.com | See recent IFC news »

Spring is a season of renewal, particularly in the movie business, where the completion of the awards derby allows Amy Adams to segue from playing a solemn nun in "Doubt" to a klutzy crime scene cleaner in "Sunshine Cleaning." Along with "Sunshine," there are plenty of festival favorites about to get their day in the sun, whether that's in theaters, on DVD or on demand online or on TV. This preview recognizes the many ways to get your indie film fix, as well as the special events you might want to head out to if you live in New York or Los Angeles, including "The Brothers Bloom" director Rian Johnson's week-long con man movie "Festival of Fakery" at L.A.'s famed New Beverly Cinema, about which we recently spoke to the director. But regardless of whether we're watching films from the past or present, we're looking forward to the next couple months. »
