Harrison Ford on "Late Show with David Letterman" - July 2011

Harrison Ford was a guest on the "Late Show with David Letterman" the previous week. He was giving an interview due to a promo tour of Jon Favreau's last movie called "Cowboys and Aliens", where Harrison played one of the main parts. They've talked a lot about horse ridding, Elizabeth Taylor, broccolis (great joke about it) and presented a new clip from this upcoming movie. And you just have to see the end of this show! Hilarious as always!

"Sherlock Holmes" (2009) - Memorable Quotes

Witty and almost not related to the classic novels written by Arthur Conan Doyle, "Sherlock Holmes" is a good action movie with a bit of mystery. Guy Ritchie along with a great cast (Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Mark Strong, Rachel McAdams) did everything they could to make it unusual and interesting. Especially I liked the lines said by Sherlock and other characters.

Mrs. Hudson: I won't go in there by myself, not while he's got a gun in his hand!
Dr. Watson: You don't have to go in there at all.
Mrs. Hudson: What will I do when you leave, doctor? He'll bring the whole house down!
Dr. Watson: He just needs another case, that's all.

Sherlock Holmes: Don't touch. Everything is in its proper place... as per usual, Nanny. 
Mrs. Hudson: Oh, he's killed the dog. Again.
Dr. John Watson: What have you done to Gladstone now? 
Sherlock Holmes: I was simply testing a new anesthetic. He doesn't mind.

Dr. John Watson: Why is the only woman you've cared about a world class criminal? Are you a masochist?

Sherlock Holmes: Whatever he was working on, he obviously succeeded.
Dr. John Watson: How do you know?
Sherlock Holmes: Otherwise, he'd still be alive.

Sherlock Holmes: Un moment, s'il vous plait. (One moment, please)
Dredger: Je ne suis pas pressé. (I'm not in a hurry.)

Holmes: You've never complained about my methods before.
Dr. Watson: I'm not complaining.
Holmes: You're not? What do you call this?
Dr. Watson: I never complain! How am I complaining? When do I ever complain about you practicing the violin at three in the morning, or your mess, your general lack of hygiene, or the fact that you steal my clothes? Holmes: Uh, we have a barter system...
Dr. Watson: When have I ever complained about you setting fire to my rooms?
Holmes: Our rooms...
Dr. Watson: The rooms! Or, or, the fact that you experiment on my dog?
Holmes: Our dog...
Dr. Watson: The dog!  
Holmes: Gladstone is our dog!

Inspector Lestrade: In another life, Mr. Holmes, you would have made a excellent criminal.
Sherlock Holmes: Yes, and you an excellent policeman.

Sir Thomas: Mr. Holmes, apologies for summoning you like this. I'm sure it's quite a mystery as to where you are, and who I am...
Sherlock Holmes: As to where I am, I was, admittedly, lost for a moment, between Charing Cross and Holborn, but I was saved by the bread shop on Saffron Hill. The only baker to use a certain French glaze on their loaves - a Brittany sage. After that, the carriage forked left, then right, and then the tell-tale bump at the Fleet Conduit. And as to who you are, that took every ounce of my not-inconsiderable experience. The letters on your desk were addressed to a Sir Thomas Rotherham. Lord Chief Justice, that would be the official title. Who you really are is, of course, another matter entirely. Judging by the sacred ox on your ring, you're the secret head of the Temple of the Four Orders in whose headquarters we now sit, located on the northwest corner of St. James Square, I think. As to the mystery, the only mystery is why you bothered to blindfold me at all.

Irene Adler: Why are you always so suspicious?
Sherlock Holmes: Should I answer chronologically or alphabetically?

Sherlock Holmes: There is a toxin, refined from the nectar of the rhododendron ponticum. It's quite infamous in the region of Turkey bordering the Black Sea for its ability to induce an apparently mortal paralysis. Enough to deceive even a medical mind as tenacious and well-trained as yours. It's known locally as...
Mary Morstan: What's wrong with Gladstone?
Sherlock Holmes: ...mad honey disease. Oh, he's just demonstrating the very effect I've just described. He doesn't mind.

“Magic Beyond Words: The J.K. Rowling Story” (2011)

I just found out that an unauthorized biopic of J.K. Rowling has been made. So don't expect it's a documentary and all here is truth, but the film is dynamic and is very bound with the creation of Harry Potter story. I think it's nothing more than one beautiful feature film, which has a bit of a magic inside. The main part is played by actress Poppy Montgomery.

“Magic Beyond Words: The J.K. Rowling Story” dramatizes the British author’s struggle to bring the beloved wizard fantasy of Harry Potter to life. Starting out as a single mother on welfare, she becomes one of the world’s wealthiest women, with more than 400 million copies of her visionary books sold across the globe, resulting in a billion-dollar film franchise. The film is an inspiring look at a woman’s rise to become one of the most influential writers ever — from her humble beginnings as an imaginative young girl and awkward teenager to the devastating loss of her mother and the genesis of the Harry Potter phenomenon in her early twenties. The rags-to-riches tale also follows Rowling’s tumultuous first marriage, becoming a mother, her divorce and the dark days of living on government assistance while publisher after publisher passed on her first novel … before it became an international best-seller and established Rowling’s rightful place in literary and cultural history.

"Snow White and the Huntsman" (2012) - Character banners

Universal Pictures presented the new banners of its upcoming movie called "Snow White and the Huntsman", showing us how the main characters will look like. What we should wait from this newly adaptations of the good old fairy-tale I have no idea, because Universal Pictures studio wants to surprise the audience. Kristen Stewart looks a bit odd in this armor and her shield is very similar to the one from "The Lord of the Rings" (white tree is a symbol of Minas Tirith). And she looks nothing like a fairy-tale Snow White, but reminds me Alice played by Mia Wasikowska from Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland". I really like the appearance of Charlize Theron, who is great as the Queen. Chris Hemsworth and Sam Claflin look okay, and again one of them reminds me a character from another movie - the Prince is like the younger son of Hessian Horseman from Tim Burton's "Sleepy Hollow". Very original, don’t you think?

"Drive" (2011) - Red Band Trailer

This story is about a stunt performer, played by Ryan Gosling, who sometimes works as getaway driver. Director Nicolas Winding Refn said about his movie: "Being realistic is OK, but it's not necessarily very interesting. We weren't aiming to make a documentary. But we wanted to strike a balance so that the film wouldn't become over-stylised." For him it wasn't usual to make movies at Hollywood, so he told how it feels to make movie there: "It was extraordinary, I was in this house with a swimming pool and an orange grove, it was mythical for me to be in that place. And the incredible thing was that everybody was helping me, while I had all these negative preconceptions. The producers were always there for me. I was able to make the movie I wanted to make." Other characters in "Drive" are portrayed by actors Carey Mulligan, Bruce Cranston, Christina Hendricks and Ron Perlman. Finally, I want to add that some critics are impressed by their performances and really enjoyed the movie and Nicolas Winding Refn got Prix de la mise en scène (Best Director Award) at the 64th Cannes Film Festival because of this movie.
