  • Ask FlickChick: A Phantom of the Paradise remake and more movie questions | Ask FlickChick | 4/24/2008
    Ask FlickChick: Movies affected by the writer's strike, dubbed performances, what's that movie and more movie questions answered!I'm a big fan of Brian De Palma's The Phantom of the Paradise. Recently, I've been hearing rumblings that there was talk of a remake. Any truth to these rumors? I can't really imagine a remake of this movie being successful, because part of the fun was how absolutely '70s it was. Thanks! – KimFlickChick: At this time, talk of a Phantom of the Paradise remake seems to be little more than that. The title is listed on the website of Pressman Films , at the bottom of a list of in-development projects. That said, Pressman Films is a legitimate company, Edward R. Pressman has a strong track record as a producer and he's already backed a remake of Brian DePalma's Sisters (1973). Though the film hasn't opened in the US, it's got a great cast -- Stephen Rea, Chloe Sevigny and Lou Doillon, daughter of '60s icon Jane Birkin – and an interesting... read more

  • Dancing Star Accused of "Violating" Iraq Film | Today's News: Our Take | 10/11/2007
    Billionaire Mark Cuban, who somewhat inexplicably has endured Dancing with the Stars' first cuts, is simultaneously involved in some fancy legal footwork. At a Monday panel discussion about the Iraq War film Redacted, director Brian De Palma accused Cuban, who financed the pic, of obscuring a montage of wounded GIs because "he was disturbed by [them].... I felt my cut was violated." The New York Daily News says fellow panelist and film distributor Eamonn Bowles defended Cuban by blaming the edit on "an untenable legal situation," to which De Palma snapped, "It's a specious legal issue.... [M]y picture was redacted."Cuban did not answer the News' calls, but Bowles chalks it all up to a "misunderstanding" about photo rights. read more
  • Ask FlickChick: Real-life Body Snatchers, Remakes, Stephen King and More | Ask FlickChick | 9/12/2007
    Ask FlickChick: Yes, there is a real "body-snatching psychosis, why Hollywood loves remakes, why critics hate Stephen King and more...Question: I just saw the new Nicole Kidman movie Invasion with my girlfriend and she insists there's a real disease where people think their friends and family have been replaced by duplicates. That sounds crazy to me — I think there have just been so many versions of Invasion of the Body Snatchers that people think it's a real thing. What do you think? — ErikFlickChick: Amazingly enough, there is a real psychological disorder called Capgras Syndrome whose sufferers are convinced that their loved ones are no longer their loved ones, just like the characters in the four adaptations to date of Jack Finney's allegorical science-fiction novel Invasion of the Body Snatchers. The delusion is named for French psychiatrist Jean Marie Joseph Capgras, who first described it in 1923. It remains something of a mystery and can take several forms:... read more
