“North Country was dirt. That’s what happens when you go into a mine. In the Valley of Elah — that’s when I took real offense, because that was just my real hair color and me with no makeup.” —Charlize Theron on accusations that she makes herself look ugly to get taken seriously [W]

“[It was] really surreal because you’re sitting around a round table and everyone was like, ‘Well, Batman wouldn’t say that.’ And someone would be like, ‘Yeah, but the thing about Superman is…’ It was so fun … like this superhero theater camp.” —Adam Brody on the short, surreal life of Warner Bros.’ Justice League movie [MSN]

Charlize Theron and Martin Henderson must’ve had a very long day.
In an interview about “Battle in Seattle,” a much anticipated low-budget film about the 1999 World Trade Organization riots, Theron and Henderson talked about the movie like they were ready to go to bed. At one point, Theron had to ask Henderson what the movie was about.

“It’s, um, it’s based on real events that took place in Seattle in ‘99 … right?”

Charlize Theron movie shot here out on big screen — but not here

When he saw the movie Sleepwalking, a silver-screen depiction of Moose Jaw was more interesting to city native Ken Mitchell than his own face briefly crossing the big screen.
“The photography in it is really very good,” he said. “What’s most interesting about it is the way that they shoot Moose Jaw.
“It’s a bleak view of the landscape here because it’s a winter scene, but you certainly recognize it,” added Mitchell, who saw the movie in Regina recently.
He said there are several shots of the railyards and distinguishable landmarks like the old Robin Hood flour building.

Written and directed by Stuart Townsend, “Battle in Seattle” is set in the Emerald City but was shot mostly in Vancouver, a result of the Canadian city’s competitive production benefits and another cultural slight for us. We’re no second Hollywood. We actually get excited when the stars come to town, even if Jennifer Aniston did snub us for Miami last month and needed a green screen to be shot with the Fremont Troll.
