It was only a matter of time before an insider trading storyline hit Industry‘s Pierpoint & Co.
In the Season 2 finale of HBO’s anxiety-ridden financial drama, the pressure to keep bigwig Jesse Bloom’s business finally led Harper to cross a very illegal line. While she scrambled to maneuver around Bloom’s own wheeling-and-dealing, some key conversations with Celeste and her father shook Yasmin’s world to the core.

Showing as part of this year’s Fantasia Midnights program, Synapse Films premiered their restoration of writer/director Jeff Lieberman’s cult favorite Blue Sunshine. The 1977 film about former hippies suffering from homicidal acid flashbacks will be getting a 4K release at an undisclosed future date, and the image quality is noticeably better than on my DVD. But, what about the actual film? Glad you asked…
Blue Sunshine begins at a party where one of the guests is doing an impersonation of Rodan. “The artist?” asks one of the guests. “No, the monster” But a real monster is about to show up as Frannie loses his wig and his mind and begins shoving guests into the fireplace.
Jerry narrowly avoids becoming his next...

The always-dynamic director Jack Hill goes teen-gang wild with this absolutely crazy take on Jd pictures, pitched three octaves higher than normal exploitation drama. All the nasty-rasty thrills are here, from an episode of Wip sadism to brutal misogyny to a gang skirmish fought on a roller skating rink. What began as one of those exploitation cheapies with three women, comes alive with the dynamic Robbie Lee, Joanne Nail and Monica Gayle — even with all the sexist cruelty on view, the no-limits performances feel liberating, energizing. Hill’s gang epic is so stylized, it’s almost a fantasy. With some good interview and analysis extras.

Durham, Nc - The hard truth of cinema takes place at the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival in Durham, Nc from April 14-17. That’s four solid days of movies that don’t feature Natalie Portman’s face being digitally inserted on other bodies. Four days of real people doing real stuff. And you can get some great BBQ.
This years line up has enough goodness to make me have to make painful choices as what to watch. There’s only one screening unless a movie wins a major prize. It’s be there or miss out. Choice wisely. Here’s a few of the films I’m looking to catch:
The Hangman (Thursday 10:20 a.m.) appears to be a creepy classic as it probes the man who executed Nazi Adolph Eichmann. What’s he do now? He ritually slaughters animals. Windfall (Thurs 4:20 p.m.) takes us to Meredith,...

Cheo Hodari Coker is planning to write the big-screen adaptation of Bill Adler's "Tougher Than Leather: The Rise of Run-dmc -- The Authorized Biography."
The film will examine the history of what is certainly one of the most influential hip-hop bands ever. The group was run by Joseph "Run" Simmons, Darryl "Dmc" McDaniels and Jason "Jam Master Jay" Mizel. Mizel was shot to death in Queens in 2002.
Run-dmc launched a great career during the 1980s and produced hits like "It's Like That," "It's Tricky" and "My Adidas."
"It's an extraordinary rags-to-riches journey that I'm eager to bring to the screen," producer Dallas Jackson told The Hollywood Reporter.
Coker most recently co-wrote "Notorious," which focused on the life and career of Christopher Wallace, who was also known as Notorious B.I.G.

At least three SpoutBlog commenters will be happy to learn that Notorious screenwriter Cheo Hodari Coker is next adapting Bill Adler's book on Run Dmc, Tougher Than Leather. Two weeks ago, when I responded to the Biggie Smalls biopic with a list of 5 Dead Rappers Who Need a Biopic, I excluded Run Dmc's Jam Master Jay on account he was a DJ, not a rapper. But SpoutBlog readers nevertheless pointed out my error and suggested he and his group get a biopic anyway. Another screenwriter goes from one bio to another: A Mighty Heart scribe John Orloff <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/co ...

Cheo Hodari Coker, the writer of the recent Biggie Smalls biopic Notorious, has signed on to adapt Bill Adler's Tougher Than Leather: The Rise of Run-dmc -- The Authorized Biography. The film, titled Tougher, is being developed by DJ Classicz, the urban arm of Davis Entertainment. Tougher will explore the history of hip-hop's first superstars: Joseph "Run" Simmons, Darryl "Dmc" McDaniels and Jason "Jam Master Jay" Mizell, who was shot to death in his Queens studio in 2002. With such hits as "It's Like That," "It's Tricky," "My Adidas" and "Walk This Way," Run-dmc exploded from the Queens neighborhood of Hollis onto the international stage with the help of future mogul Russell Simmons. An early MTV staple and platinum-selling act, the group influenced much of rap's future royalty. Retired since Mizell's death, Run-dmc will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on April 4. Adler, the group's former publicist,...
