Mary Badham and Gregory Peck on the set of To Kill a Mockingbird (1962). The two kept in touch after filming, and she continued to call him Atticus until the day he died.
Oldman will play Norton, the scientist who creates Robocop and finds himself torn between the ideals of the machine trying to rediscover its humanity and the callous needs of a corporation.

The Master teaser trailer
So, Paul Thomas Anderson is pretty much my favourite film-maker working at the moment (although I still haven’t seen Hard Eight), and Joaquin Phoenix was my adolescent mega-crush of choice (you think my Gary Oldman thing was bad? You should have met me at twelve), so I’ll be very excited to see this.

“Jean Luc Godard said cinema is truth 24 times a second. Maybe. It’s lying 24 times a second too. All the time. All story is manipulation. Is there an acceptable manipulation? You bet.”—Ken Burns, on storytelling in film.
(Y’all should watch the short documentary about Burns. It’s great.)
Wait a minute. Someone made a documentary about Ken Burns that isn’t comprised of 6-12 parts that are each 90 minutes long?
But there’s plenty of slow zooms onto photographs!
Looking at you: a montage of eye-contact scenes. Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks to Brutzelpretzel and ClaraDarkoWOW. A terrifically-edited piece from one of Tumblr’s most awesome single-topic film sites. Really wonderful.
