ReelTalkTV.com is going to be our way of giving you a daily dose of the movie reviews, news and film industry insight you get on our show every week (at least I hope so). Expect to get regular updates from Alison & Jeffrey on various topics -- whether its a heads up on a new movie, talking about a recent interview subject, random trivia questions (a Jeffrey specialty) -- if its occupying some part of their thought process, chances are they'll post about it here.
One of the great benefits of our new site will be to get feedback from you about what you like, don't like and what you're looking for. Since there are about 37 million entertainment-based websites clogging up bandwidth, we want to make sure when you visit our site, you find compelling and engaging content that isn't the same recycled stuff you see on many other websites. So let us know your thoughts.
One last thing. A can't-miss movie is "Into the Wild," based on Jon Krakauer's book of the same name. It tells the amazing and tragic story of Chris McCandless, AKA 'Alexander Supertramp.'
That name will make sense if you've read the book. If not, go see the movie because it is AMAZING. Sean Penn wrote/directed it and perfectly captures the spirit of the book. Emile Hirsch pulls a Christian Bale and completely immerses himself in the role as Chris. It opens in limited release this weekend but trust me, this one's worth the extra effort to find in theaters.
We're also interviewing Sean Penn on this weekend's show - great interview with one of the most talented people in Hollywood. Check local listings for times.
I'll post more on Mr. Penn's visit to the Reel Talk studios soon.
