With an excellent line-up of films such as Imaikka Nodigal, Aramm, Kolayuthir Kaalam, Velaikkaran and a yet to be titled Telugu project with Balakrishna in her kitty this year, Nayanthara is making very interesting career choices.
She has apparently signed a film titled Co Co, to be directed by debutant Nelson Dilip Kumar. The film will be bankrolled by Lyca Productions.

Full Lineup Announcements
– “3-D Auteurs,” a 19-day, 34-film festival spotlighting stereoscopic movies by some of history’s most distinguished directors, will run at Film Forum November 11 – 29. The festival spans 3-D’s earliest days (including some turn-of-the-century films by pioneer Georges Méliès) to the present, and represents virtually every genre, including Westerns, Film Noir, and Science Fiction. Hollywood’s first big 3-D craze (sometimes called 3-D’s “golden era”), intended to offset the threat of television, came in the early 1950s, with such movies as Hitchcock’s “Dial M For Murder,” André De Toth’s “House of Wax” and Jack Arnold’s “Creature From the Black Lagoon” (all included in the series).
Hollywood produced roughly 50 movies in the process from 1952 to 1954, before fizzling out and being overtaken by...

Netflix Chief Creative Officer Ted Sarandos echoed the premise of a gushing question about the streaming company’s deal yesterday with Disney posed by The Weinstein Co co-chairman Harvey Weinstein in an interview. “Netflix as a real Pay 1 alternative [to premium channels] is a game-changer,” Sarandos said at the Ubs Global Media and Communications Conference. Having exclusive access to movies from all of Disney‘s studios, as well as direct-to-video releases, “is going to be a huge step forward for our programming.” He contrasted that to the exclusivity terms that recently lapsed in Netflix’s agreement with Epix. Since its product went to Netflix three months after appearing on cable “their brand of exclusivity wasn’t exclusive enough,” Sarandos says. “It wasn’t valuable relative to the premium.” He also says that Netflix did fine after losing access to Starz early this year. By cutting other deals, “our movie selection was better post-Starz.

Based on the reviews I’ve read of the documentary Bully, the MPAA’s decision to uphold an R rating that excludes the target audience seems one of the ratings board’s more absurd judgements. Releasing unrated is a gamble, and The Weinstein Co co-chairman Harvey Weinstein and his team tried to stack their odds by taking to Twitter, and the response was resounding. They’ve reached over 105 million followers from individual tweets and another 10 million from organizations. Among the celebs who’ve participated in tweeting the film are: Justin Timberlake, Jessica Simpson, Mariah Carey, Jonah Hill, Katy Perry, Piers Morgan, Joel McHale, Jimmy Fallon, Ryan Seacrest, Kristen Bell, Ricky Martin, Arianna Huffington, Elizabeth Banks, Zooey Deschanel, Kate Bosworth, Kerry Washington, Brad Wollack, Rachel Zoe, Hugh Jackman, Rosie O’Donnell, Chelsea Handler, Khloe Kardashian Odom, Kim Kardashian, Paula Abdul, Kathy Griffin, Jeri Ryan, Jay Manuel, Alyssa Milano, Mandy Moore,...

Snow Flower & The Secret Fan is released on 04 November 2011 on Blu-ray and DVD. We have 3 copies of the DVD to give away courtesy of Fox Searchlight Pictures.
Inspired by the bestselling novel Snow Flower And The Secret Fan by Lisa See, the film is a timeless portrait of female friendship. In 19th-century China, seven-year-old girls Snow Flower and Lily are matched as laotong – or “old sames” – bound together for eternity. Isolated by their families, they furtively communicate by taking turns writing in a secret language, nu shu, between the folds of a white silk fan.
In a parallel story in present day Shanghai, the laotong’s descendants, Nina and Sophia, struggle to maintain the intimacy of their own childhood friendship in the face of demanding careers, complicated love lives, and a relentlessly evolving Shanghai. Drawing on the lessons of the past, the two modern women must understand the story of their ancestral connection,...
