FilmWeek

FilmWeek for September 25, 2009

Larry Mantle talks with KPCC film critics Jean Oppenheimer of Village Voice Media and Wade Major of boxoffice.com about the week’s new film releases, including Surrogates, Fame, The Boys Are Back, Capitalism: A Love Story, Coco Before Chanel, Disgrace, The Most Dangerous Man In America, We Live In Public, and Lord, Save Us From Your Followers.

Plus, acclaimed actress Annette Bening has played some spectacularly scheming and deeply deluded women in films such as Bugsy, American Beauty and Being Julia. Now she’s tackling Euripides' famed anti-heroine, Medea, in UCLA Live’s world premier production. Bening talk with Larry about her enduring stage and film career.

Guests:

Jean Oppenheimer, Village Voice Media

Wade Major, boxoffice.com
