Interview: ‘The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day’ Director Troy Duffy on Hollywood’s ‘Financial Irresponsibility’
8 December 2009 4:13 PM, PST | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – “There’s not a bigger ‘f*ck you!’ from Hollywood than when they say: ‘Eh, we’re not going to release this film.’” But then the fans say: “Oh, you know what? About $100 million says that you are retarded. It says that you made a bad decision,” “The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day” star Sean Patrick Flanery said in a Chicago interview with HollywoodChicago.com.
Flanery added: “Everybody thinks they know. Executives say: ‘We do this for a living.’ Well, you f*cked up. You f*cked up! You didn’t put this in the theater, and with no advertising, people just picked it up and said: ‘You’re an idiot. This is a good film.’”

Exclusive Interview: Possesion(s) star Laurence Fuller
1 December 2009 3:51 PM, PST | ReelLoop.com | See recent Reel Loop news »
Possession(s), a new Australian short, featured one of the most notable launches in recent memory. To coincide with the film’s release a famous Peter Booth artwork, Painting (Man With Bandaged Head), was sold off in The Deutscher and Hackett Important Fine Art Auction.
The tie-in between the film and the auction comes in the shape of actor Laurence Fuller who used the painting, which he owned, as inspiration for the dark, brooding short. His character Frank, upon seeing the Peter Booth work, becomes embroiled with a sense of obsession; he simply has to own the piece and will do anything to make it so. However, it soon becomes clear that Frank is not the only one consumed by the desire to possess.
Laurence Fuller shines in the lead role and it is easy to see why he is a much sought after young actor. Having attended the Method »

Movie Review: The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day
29 November 2009 3:13 PM, PST | FusedFilm | See recent FusedFilm news »
Like its predecessor, The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day is a rocking, firework popping action extravaganza that doesn’t add anything deep to the series but what it does is bring us the continuation of a cult classic that after 10 years hasn’t missed a beat.
It would be a disservice to harp on Troy Duffy’s issues getting this film made and the hoops it probably took for him to finally get it off the ground, but like its creator this film is messy, vulgar, violent and completely senseless but in way that’s lovable just like the its cult classic predecessor.
All Saints Day, brings us back together with fraternal twins Murphy (Norman Reedus) and Connor (Sean Patrick Flanery), who managed to escape back home to the hills of Ireland after their justice driven vigilante kill spree throughout Boston. A decade has passed but the drive to »

Indie Roundup: 'Cracks,' 'Harry Brown' Deals and Trailers
18 November 2009 4:03 PM, PST | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »
Indie Roundup: Your quick guide to what's new and upcoming in the independent film community.
Deals. Our friends at indieWIRE report that Cracks has been acquired by IFC Films, which plans to release it next year via its IFC in Theaters platform. The film is the feature directorial debut of Jordan Scott, daughter of Ridley Scott. Eva Green (The Dreamers, Casino Royale) stars as a teacher and diving coach in an Irish boarding school for orphaned girls; Juno Temple, Imogen Poots, and Maria Valverde also star. "The trials and tribulations, for both the students and their unorthodox teacher," writes Kurt Halfyard at Twitch, "gradually are brought to a boil that subverts many of the typical paths in either a coming of age story or a typical 'school-girl dormitory' tale."
Michael Caine stars as Harry Brown, a retired Marine who determines to clean up his neighborhood after his best friend is killed. »

The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day
Directed by: Troy Duffy
Cast: Sean Patrick Flanery, Norman Reedus, Billy Connolly, Clifton Collins Jr., Julie Benz
Running Time: 2 hrs
Rating: R
Release Date: November 13, 2009 (Limited)
Plot: The vigilante assassins (Flanery, Reedus) return from hiding in Ireland to stop a copycat killer who is putting a bad mark on their legacy. While back home they attempt to fix the unfinished business with the powerful Yakavetta Mob.
Who’S It For? If you like action movies with slow motion shootouts, slim plots, and shabby moral lessons, then you probably saw 1999’s original The Boondock Saints. Now that ten years have past, do you want the same thing again, or would a hundredth re-watch of the first suffice?
Expectations: The first film succeeded with a few clever ideas, such as a different way to imagine a shootout. Now that the Saints aren’t particularly new to us, »

Interview – Troy Duffy, Chris Brinker, and Sean Patrick Flanery of The Boondock Saints II
13 November 2009 5:19 PM, PST | ReelLoop.com | See recent Reel Loop news »
Like many, I came to know and love The Boondock Saints through DVD (and now Blu-ray.) Browsing through my local DVD retailer, I checked out their new releases and saw the film for a reasonable price. This was also at a time I had decided I wanted to be a filmmaker so I was interested in seeing obscure, off-beat films. So I purchased the flick, went home, and was instantly assaulted by all of it’s awesome. From the unrelenting action to Willem Dafoe’s outlandish performance, I was thoroughly entertained by what Troy Duffy had delivered and eagerly anticipated the sequel, which by this point in time was still rumored.
Well here we are, ten years after the first film debuted and The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day is upon us. While it’s been playing New York and L.A., everyone else gets it this weekend. When »

The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day is the much-anticipated sequel to the indie cult classic, The Boondock Saints. The film is the continuation of writer/director Troy Duffy’s tough, stylized cutting edge saga of the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus, Sean Patrick Flanery).
The two have been in deep hiding with their father, Il Duce (Billy Connolly), in the quiet valleys of Ireland, far removed from their former vigilante lives.
When word comes that a beloved priest has been killed by sinister forces from deep within the mob, the brothers return to Boston to mount a violent and bloody crusade to bring justice to those responsible.

‘Overnight’ Exposes Boondock Saints Director
7 November 2009 6:02 PM, PST | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »
This weekend The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day, a sequel to the 1999 cult favorite and DVD sensation, goes wide across the country. It has been a decade since Troy Duffy’s first feature, and roughly five years since a documentary titled Overnight was released. While some are revisiting the Boston brothers, I decided to check out the latter which Duffy recently told /Film was a “smear job.”
The scathing behind-the-scenes film chronicles the years surrounding his intial deal with Harvey Weinsten and directorial debut, portraying the Boondock Saints director as an obnoxious, arrogant egomaniac. He spends much of the 82 minutes chattering away about his lofty ambitions and holding court as if he’s trying to convince himself of his talent more than even the lackeys leeching off his modicum of success.
News outlets heralded Duffy’s meteoric “overnight” rise and dubbed him the next Tarantino before he had even »

Weekend Report: 'Michael Jackson' Strikes Top Spot
1 November 2009 5:32 PM, PST | Box Office Mojo | See recent BoxOfficeMojo.com news »
This Is It was all there was as far as new nationwide releases went this Halloween weekend, but it was sufficient to help propel overall business nine percent higher than the same timeframe last year.
Though it may not be commensurate with the raft of pre-release hype surrounding the movie and Michael Jackson's death, This Is It performed exceptionally well for a concert picture or music documentary, charting second only to the opening of the Hannah Montana concert. It raked in an estimated $21.3 million on approximately 5,500 screens at 3,481 sites, ranking as the fifth highest-grossing Halloween debut on record, and has grossed $32.5 million in five and a half days. Add in foreign grosses of an estimated $68.5 million from 98 countries, and This Is It's five-day worldwide haul was $101 million, which exceeded the lifetime tally of the Hannah Montana concert.
While morbid curiosity was part of the appeal, spurred »
