Contagion
Steven Soderbergh's virus outbreak thriller Contagion fittingly topped what was a pretty sickly weekend box office.
The film, which stars Matt Damon, Laurence Fishburne, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jude Law, pulled in $23.1 million, according to Box Office Mojo. That was enough to topple three-time champ The Help, which fell to second place with an additional $8.7 million (for a total of $137 million after five weeks).
All told, the box office gross for the weekend's top 10 films was only $66.4 million, the lowest weekend gross this year....

Steven Soderbergh
Steven Soderbergh is developing a high-concept 3-D live-action rock ’n’ roll musical about one of the most famous women in history, Cleopatra.
An odd combo, you say? But the makeup and jewelry alone in Cleopatra's era scream for rockin' musical numbers! Some high profile talent may be buying into that theory as well – Soderbergh is wooing...

Send your movie questions to FlickChickQuestion I saw a preview of the Steven Soderbergh movie The Good German and noticed that the black-and-white photography was by his regular cinematographer Peter Andrews What Im wondering is why Andrews never works with anyone else JoanieFlickChick Peter Andrews never works with anyone other than Steven Soderbergh because Peter Andrews is Steven Soderbergh Although there are a number of cinematographers who later became directors including Jan de Bont Barry Sonnenfeld Mario Bava Ernest Dickerson Dean Semler Nicolas Roeg Andrew Davis and Ronald Neame very few mainstream directors shoot their own films in large part because directing a big complicated and expensive feature is more than enough work without adding in another full-time job The only other one I can think of who is working in Hollywood today is Peter Hyams and given how awful his recent films have been you could make a very persuasive argument t

Robin Weigert, Deadwood
There are many reasons to love this final full season of HBO's Deadwood (Sundays at 9 pm/ET), not least among them the continued standout performance by Robin Weigert. As the vulgar, dirt-smeared and usually plastered Calamity Jane, Weigert makes off with every scene she's in. The actress checked in from Las Vegas — where she was, appropriately, playing poker.
TV Guide: You mustn't get recognized much in public. You're like night and day with Jane.Robin Weigert: I don't, and it's kind of a treat in its own way. But I suppose poker players are into Deadwood [Laughs], so there's a certain point where I'll hear, "I know you from somewhere," but they just can't place
