The Humbling (2014)A story set on a farm in upstate New York and centered on the sexual (and otherwise) relationship between aged, suicidal actor and a younger woman. Director: Barry Levinson Writers: Buck Henry (screenplay), Philip Roth (novel) Stars: Al Pacino A deteriorating and increasingly irrelevant actor finds the possibility of renewal in a younger woman in Roth's tight Chekhovian tragedy. At 65, Simon Axler, a formerly celebrated stage actor, is undergoing a crisis: he can no longer act, his wife leaves him and, suicidal, he checks himself into a psych ward. Then he retires to his upstate New York farm to wait for... something, which arrives in the form of Pegeen, daughter of some old theater friends who is now a lithe, full-breasted woman of forty, though with something of a child still in her smile. A Rothian affair ensues, despite (or perhaps because of) their age difference and Pegeen's lesbian past. Axler overlooks all the signs that should warn him not to trust too much in the affair and instead tries out more and more sexual turns with Pegeen (spanking, strap-ons, role play), until one night they pick up a drunk local for a three-way that might prove to be soul-crushing. Roth observes much (about age, success and the sexual credit lovers hold one with another) in little space, and the svelte narrative amounts to an unsparing confrontation of self. Come on...is that not Winona? |

I'd love to see Winona join this film! Soderbergh swallows Bitter Pill
Steven Soderbergh has apparently signed up to direct thriller The Bitter Pill.
The Contagion director recently dropped out of directing the new big screen adaptation of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and now The Hollywood Reporter's Heat Vision blog reports he has picked up The Bitter Pill, written by U.N.C.L.E. screenwriter Scott Z Burns.
All that's currently known about the film is that it's a thriller set in New York in the world of "psychopharmacology", the study of how drugs change behaviour.
Scott said the film, which "has a twist", deals with "people and their moods".
He added: "It's about how we as a society can't tolerate sadness and what that makes us vulnerable to."

Tim Burton's Dark Shadows, and I'm hoping for it. Yes, the cast is done and the production ended some months ago, but I'm thinking about a secret cameo  ... to be possibly extended in a sequel. In the first movie we'll have Roger Collins (Johnny Lee Miller) and his son David, but what about the wife Laura Collins? She is a phoenix and Winona would be great in that role. Laura will be almost certainly cited in the first movie, but she could also appear quickly as a ghost or in a paint. And, in case of a sequel, a great actress in that role would be necessary. During May Winona Ryder was on the set of The Stare, but the production of that movie lasted only 15 days or so. She may have shot her cameo (for Dark Shadows) in a day or two. At the time she had a 60's/70's hairstyle (the Audrey Hepburn bangs) and the movie is set mostly in 1972. But these are just speculations... Anyway, I hope to see her in a Burton movie again PS: I apologize for any error, I'm not so good in english.

Great idea! I would like to see her as a vampire. She was great in Dracula. She could be Clarimonde, Theophile´Gautier´s gorgeous and romantic vampire.

I would like to see her in this: http://www.deadline.com/2...patti-smith-on-just-kids/Yes, she is at least 10 years too old for the role, but she aged very well and the make-up can do miracles. At the same time, in a younger age, she would have seemed too pretty and clean to play a punk rock singer. The story of Just Kids is powerfull and tender... |

It would be amazing, a great step in Winona's career and the perfect role for a real fan of good music.

I really wish Mr. Jim Jarmusch would cast Winona in his new vampire film, "Only Lovers Left Alive." Come on Jim... Here's the plot: Interview with Tom Hiddleston: I’m just about to start work on a Jim Jarmusch film, and it’s a love story called ‘Only Lovers Left Alive’, and it’s a very small scale intimate piece about the nature of love. It’s about a man and a woman and all of the tenderness and complexity of that engagement. Tilda Swinton and I will be playing lovers in that film, and the only twist is that they happen to be vampires. |

I would really love to see Winona work with German director Wim Wenders in his new film, "Everything Will Be Fine." Sarah Polley was just cast and all that is known about the film is it's a family drama.

I love Sarah Polley. Love her movie "My Life Without Me". I hope I get to see her acting alongside Winona one day. |
