March 31: The Weinstein Company Men

Great news: The Weinstein Company has scooped up the rights to "The Company Men."

While many (including me) may argue with Harvey Weinstein's behavior at times, there's no arguing that when he believes in a film, he'll give his all to make sure that film gets widely seen and richly rewarded.

"The Company Men" has been called a worthy sequel to "Up In the Air," which was nominated for an Oscar, and even called a better film. Costner fans look forward to seeing "The Company Men" get its props from The Weinstein Company.

March 29: "New Daughter" Trailer

ComingSoon.net has the trailer for "The New Daughter" DVD:

http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=64372

Pretty standard-looking, certainly no reason this movie should have been so badly abused by the studio.

The trailer has a Costner line that's sure to become a trademark: "It's better to meet a fan than a critic." Said by a man who knows too much about that.

March 12: A Few More Kevin Costners :)

Here's a link to a worthwhile piece, "Why the world needs a few more Kevin Costners," by Simon Brew, celebrating KC's film choices and guts:

One note: Matt Damon, an excellent chooser, has had a lot more good luck than KC. He's also attached himself to a franchise, which KC has not.

It's tough to go it alone, and Kevin Costner has. He is, finally, starting to get some recognition for it. It's about time.
