A Return to Notting Hill with Roger Michell
By Terry Keefe
To see just how diverse a director Roger Michell is, all you need to do is compare the two very different versions of London's Notting Hill district that he has shown us on film. The first was the sizable studio picture, Notting Hill, which starred Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant and which was one of the biggest hits of 1999. A romantic comedy about an ordinary bookstore owner who finds himself in a relationship with a huge movie star, Notting Hill managed to be breezy on its surface level but also deceptively deep in its characterizations. And it also made you want to visit the charming and...

Harrison Ford heading back to comedy? Produced by Jj Abrams? That’ll do nicely. Meet the new trailer for Morning Glory…
We're not massively convinced that this is a million miles away from the original Us trailer for the film, but nonetheless, we bring you, with a smile on our face, the UK promo for Morning Glory.
The reason for the smile is that this marks Harrison Ford's long, long overdue return to a full-on comedy (arguably for the first time since Working Girl), this time starring opposite Diane Keaton as one of two feuding news anchors, being marshalled by Rachel McAdams.
The film has reason behind the camera to be interested, too. Director Roger Michell not only gave the world Notting Hill, but also Changing Lanes, Titanic Town and the brilliant The Mother (amongst others). Furthermore, there's the small matter of Jj Abrams producing.
Here's the trailer. It's...

NEW YORK -- Paramount Classics is in negotiations to acquire helmer Roger Michell's big-screen adaptation of Ian McEwan's Enduring Love in a multiterritory pact that includes North America, Latin America and Australia, sources said. The film would mark Michell's return to the Paramount fold following last year's Scott Rudin-produced thriller Changing Lanes, starring Ben Affleck and Samuel L. Jackson. The Love pact is being struck with Pathe International, the London-based sales arm of Pathe Entertainment. Love was one of a handful of Pathe titles that stirred serious buzz at the recent MIFED confab in Milan, with specialty buyers circling. Pathe closed a deal this week with Miramax Films on Shona Auerbach's directorial debut, Dear Frankie, for a slew of territories (HR 11/20). Shot from a screenplay by Joe Penhall, Love stars Daniel Craig and Rhys Ifans in the story of two strangers whose lives become dangerously intertwined after they both witness a tragic accident. Kevin Loader produced through Michell and Loader's Free Range Films shingle. McEwan's novel was originally published by Bantam in 1998. The director's The Mother premiered at the Festival de Cannes this year. Mother's distributor is Sony Pictures Classics. The helmer's credits also include Notting Hill and Titanic Town.
