KILL YOUR DARLINGS<br />

n In 1944, writer Lucien Carr killed David Kammerer in Riverside<br />

Park on Manhattan’s Upper West Side and dumped him in the Hudson<br />

River. Carr was one of a group of friends that included Beat writers Allen<br />

Ginsberg, William Burroughs, and Jack Kerouac. Daniel Radcliffe trades<br />

his wand for a pen and adopts a New Jersey accent to portray writer<br />

Ginsberg.<br />

THE COUNSELOR<br />

n Though novelist Cormac McCarthy’s works have been adapted many<br />

times (The Road, No Country for Old Men, All the Pretty Horses), The<br />

Counselor is just his second produced original screenplay. The film casts<br />

Michael Fassbender—who’s everywhere these days—as a lawyer who<br />

becomes enmeshed in drug trafficking. Director Ridley Scott leaves space<br />

ships and swords behind for this modern tale of greed and avarice.<br />

JACKASS PRESENTS: BAD GRANDPA<br />

n Johnny Knoxville hides behind heavy and convincing prosthetics to<br />

play 86-year-old Irving Zisman in this hidden-camera reality road trip<br />

across America. In tow is Jackson Nicoll as Zisman’s grandson Billy. The<br />

pair meet male strippers, angry child beauty pageant contestants, funeral<br />

home mourners, and biker bar patrons in a manner familiar to fans of<br />

Sacha Baron Cohen’s Ali G, Borat, and Bruno characters. Spike Jonze<br />

(Being John Malkovich) concocted some of the scenarios.<br />

BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR<br />

n Winner of the Palme d’Or at Cannes earlier this year, Blue Is the Warmest<br />

Color has been universally lauded by critics, including Cannes jury<br />

president Steven Spielberg, yet the film’s two female stars (also award winners)<br />

have stated that they have no interest in ever working again for their<br />

director. With explicit and graphic sex scenes between the two performers,<br />

the film is being released in the United States with an NC-17 rating even<br />

though the female (and heterosexual) actors wore prosthetics during their<br />

intense, graphic, and lengthy same-sex love scenes.<br />
