This is really the biography of Robert Ford, not Jesse James, so it did puzzle me why Casey Affleck's brilliant portrayal of Ford was nominated for "best supporting actor". But since he is not the hero - indeed, there really is no hero in this movie - then it is difficult to see him as the "star" of the film. It is two and a half hours of docu-drama, really. Pitt is less than brilliant, it has to be said. I think he lacks the capacity to play a serious role... ... Source: www.patrickunscripted.com --- 5 days ago

Sunday night, and you know what that means--Mad Men in all its carefully tailored, methodical, somnambulistic mythic wreath-laying. No live-blog at Newcritics tonight, due to loose panels on the reentry module, but Lance Mannion has an insight-rich recap/meditation on last week's episode to tee you up for this week's trip deep into the heart of gabardine. Particularly intriguing is the comparison of the Don Draper-Sneaky Pete dynamic to the pathology of idolization and vicious envy slowly, poetically, powerfully uncoiled in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, my first or second favorite film (it vies with Zodiac) of the last couple years. "[Pete's] admiration for his hero has gone beyond a boyish over-identification into a vicarious assuming of the older man's identity. In his mind, Pete is already Draper and that explains his petulance and his impatience. He can't understand why he isn't already enjoying all the perks of being Don Draper." I'll tell you why--because he isn't a handsome cipher like his hero. As Bloody Mary says in South Pacific, "You not sexy like lieutenant!" Sexy makes all the diff. ...

"Exiles" by Ron Hansen (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 227 pages, $23) O ne cold night in December 1875, the German steamship Deutschland ran aground in the Thames estuary in England, and more than 60 people died, including five young nuns who, exiled by Bismarck's laws against Catholic religious orders, were on their way to begin a new work in Missouri. This tragedy captured the imagination of a young Jesuit named Gerard Manley Hopkins, and he began working on a long poem, "The Wreck of the Deutschland," that would help catapult him long after his death into the upper echelons of British poets. In "Exiles" (his seventh novel), Ron Hansen imagines the lives of the five nuns and Hopkins and draws on themes of faith and identity. He paints these characters as exiles in their different ways as they struggled to follow their vocations. As he did in his first two novels, "Desperadoes" and "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford," Hansen combines meticulous historical research with his novelist's skills at creating character and drama. Clearly he is most absorbed with Hopkins, the sensitive and eccentric seminarian who abandoned his literary career to pursue the priesthood, to whom Hansen gives the most pages. ...

Brad Pitt was just a tad surprised when he was called up on stage at this year's Venice Film Festival, to accept a best-acting trophy for an award he won last year . BP won the honor for his starring role in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, but, apparently, never got to take home the gold . "You can run but you can't hide," the ever-charming Brad joked, as he accepted the almost-Stanley Cup-size statue (how big is that?!). "It was an honor to receive this last year and it's an honor to receive it this year. Thank you very much." I bet it just gave Brad and bud George Clooney another thing to joke about later. ...
Filed under: Industry , HBO-HD We already knew that Home Box Office was champing at the bit to rid itself of anything less than pure, unadulterated (okay, maybe just a little bit) HD, and now the outfit is announcing that its Cinemax channel will be going 100% high-def on September 1st. Granted, we're talking about the main channel only here, but this fall / winter is shaping up to be a good one for Cinemax HD. Subscribers will see the pay-TV premieres of The Bourne Ultimatum , Rendition , The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford and The Darjeeling Limited , and in the near future, viewers will see I Am Legend , Juno , Alien vs. Predator: Requiem and In The Valley of Elah . Of note, the release states that "true HD (1080i)" won't begin until September 6th -- odd, but we suppose a few extra days won't kill us.

Brad Pitt picked up a best-acting award for his starring role in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford -- a year after the film was released and a year after he won the accolade, the Associated Press reports. "You can run but you can't hide," Pitt, 44, joked as he belatedly accepted the honor. The actor nabbed the prize at the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival on Wednesday, as his latest film, Burn After Reading , debuted. See photos of Brad Pitt through the years . Burn After Reading , which is in contention for the festival's top prize, also stars George Clooney , Frances McDormand and Tilda Swinton . It is written and directed by the Coen Brothers. At a press conference, Pitt was asked if it's better to win an Oscar or fall in love with a beautiful woman. "Brad, don't answer that," Clooney quipped. See photos of famous Hollywood bromances . Clooney was then asked if he has any plans to settle down and have kids himself. "I am so surprised to hear that question," he joked. "That is honestly the first time I've been asked that question. I am getting married and having children today. Brad?" Replied Pitt, "And until then I'll be sharing mine with him. I'll have two more by next year." In fact, the Venice Film Festival is Pitt's first public appearance since Angelina Jolie gave birth to their twins. On Tuesday night, he attended a Not On Our Watch fundraiser at Venice's Giudecca island. ...
