According Rob Owen, Post-Gazette TV editor: Mt. Lebanon native David Hollander will film 'Pittsburgh-like' movie in Vancouver:

The new project of Michelle Pfeiffer, which will beging the filming next week (November 26) "Personal Effects," has been in gestation for at least three years, the movie will be starred by Kathy Bates and Ashton Kutcher.

In 2004, Hollander said he hoped to film "Effects" in Pittsburgh, but in an e-mail this week he said even though it would be cheaper to make the movie locally due to currency fluctuations, the film's cast and financiers demanded it film on the West Coast: Vancouver.

Hollander said the movie's setting is "Pittsburgh-like. ... Pittsburgh inspired, if you will." Dawn Keezer, director of the Pittsburgh Film Office, said no one from the production made inquiries about filming locally.

The script, written by Hollander, was inspired by the Rick Moody short story "The Mansion on the Hill."

Although it isn't an actual video, I think it it really interesting to watch. The video is a documentary about Michelle, "The Movie Show", broadcasted on Spanish Satellite Channel some years ago, with interviews and footage of her movies and the filming set. The video is in Spanish, but the most part of it is mede by interviews with Michelle in several moments on her life, in English and Subtitled in Spanish. So it can be seen for everybody.

You can see Michelle in an interview (I guess during the promotion of Married To The Mob falling 1988) where she talks about her early years in cinema, how she began on bussiness, the filming of Ladyhawke... also an wonderful interview (unknown by me) join Susan Sarandon and Cher for the promo of The Witches Of Eastwick, that she thought when she won't the Oscar for Love Field, and many more which you have to see...

It is curious to see, because in the interview for the promo of Married To The Mob, she talks about the difficult to find good parts for being beautiful... you know those thoughts follow being said currently!! After 20 years!!

Thanks Roser from Barcelona (Spain) for sending this wonderful stuff.

Finally, an important media such us Hollywood Reporter talks about the new project of Pfeiffer. it is thanks immersion of Kathy Bates into the project. They reports:

Kathy Bates has joined Michelle Pfeiffer and Ashton Kutcher in the dramatic love story "Personal Effects," which David Hollander is directing for Insight Studios. The movie, written by Hollander, sees Kutcher as a young man seeking vengeance for the murder of his sister, but when he arrives in town, he is sidetracked by a beautiful older woman (Pfeiffer) with wounds very similar to his own.

Bates is playing Kutcher's mother. Production is due to start in Vancouver in November. Gil Netter is producing along with Insight's Kirk Shaw, Tadora's Christian Arnold-Beutel and CineFilm's Tim McGrath.

The news has arrived to me from a blog, SpoilerTv. And actually I don't know about how realiable it is.

It is about the new project of Pfeiffer-Kutcher, Personal Effects. It seems the information of the features of the character who would play Michelle's son, named Clay Pietrysk on the movie, to look for and cast him. So the complete name of Pfeiffer's character would be Linda Pietrysk.

Besides, you can know new details about the plot, and facts about the characters. And here the news:

"Our sometime-narrator, he's a big, strong high school aged teen (please suggest 15 years to young looking 18 years) who speaks perfectly clearly in narration, but rarely talks on screen. He's deaf and uses sign language to communicate with his mother Linda (Michelle Pfeiffer). Calm, focused and introspective, but "trapped in a world of silence," he sometimes looks detached from what's happening to him. His father was murdered a year ago, and Clay occasionally acts out, bringing a gun to school and throwing rocks at windows. However, when Walter (Ashton Kutcher) intervenes and teaches Clay how to wrestle, Clay proves himself a good student and fast learner.

..Ability to do sign language a plus. The young actor playing this role will also need to learn how to wrestle. We are looking for an extraordinary talent for this role - someone with great emotional range - a deep thinker who has power in stillness but can "explode" with anger. We would love to audition deaf actors for authenticity. Lead. "

Finally (and too soon, I think) we can see a look of the teaser image for tne new project of Michelle Pfeiffer and Ashton Kutcher, "Personal Effects".

Actually it wouldn't be the teaser-poster of the movie, of course... it is simply an art-work announcing the project and its filming. Usually, when production companies launch this kind of works use be just words or some logo, no images of the casting.

For this one, they have taken an image of Michelle at the Premiere of Stardust in LA (July 29, 2007), I have to say thay it isn't bad at all, althoug it isn't a wonderful work too.

Now..., when the very first news about the project appeared, I designed a little art work for the project... Has it been able to do the production company hurry up to launch this one?... I hope it isn't... but could be PfeifferTheFace.com as important as to achieve it?...

Only a thing more to say: the name of Ashton Kutcher in front of Michelle Pfeiffer's? hum... let's hope to see.

According an article on the International Box-Office in Variety: True to Paramount’s word, fantasy epic “Stardust” has made up for its disappointing performance domestically at the overseas box office.

Through Nov. 4, the film’s international cume was $74.8 million — nearly double its North American haul of $38.4 million, according to Rentrak. “Stardust,” directed by Brit filmmaker Matthew Vaughn, has been steadily climbing up the international chart in recent weeks. For the Nov. 2-4 weekend, the film came in No. 3, grossing $8.5 million from 2,626 runs in its 13th frame.

Par contended from the outset that “Stardust” would be a strong international player because of its whimsical storyline and ensemble cast: Charlie Cox, Sienna Miller, Robert De Niro, Peter O’Toole, Michelle Pfeiffer, Claire Danes and Rupert Everett.

In the U.S., “Stardust” opened to only $9 million in mid-August. At the time, Paramount prexy of worldwide marketing and distribution Rob Moore predicted the film could ultimately do double its business overseas. He was right. Paramount put up half the $75 million production budget for “Stardust”; Marv Films, Ingenious Films and the Melrose Fund paid the rest. Movie was produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura.

Well, finally I feel glad for Stardust afted the bad bad bad work by Paramount!! Michelle deserved this success.

Sourcs: Variety.

Paramount finally reveals the special features for the launch of Stardust DVD the December 18 and also the Cover Art of the Dvd-edition.

Stardust will be hitting HD DVD with plenty of supplemental features, but no high-res audio. About the same date will also launched the standar DVD.

Now the studio has revealed specs for the movie, which despite a disappointing run at the box office this summer will get the full special edition treatment in its next-gen debut. Extras are set to include the documentary "Good Omens: The Making of 'Stardust', a collection of five Deleted Scenes, a Blooper Reel, and the film's original Theatrical Trailer.

Tech specs boast 1080p video (codec TBA), but the studio is once again eschewing high-res audio, releasing the disc with English, French and Spanish tracks in Dolby Digital-Plus 5.1 Surround only (1.5mbps).

Finally, the studio also has unveiled the disc's final cover art... which in my opinion, it could have been done by a child who have just learnt to use Photoshop... but who is the person who has choosen this horrible cover? Isn't good the orignal poster (American or International)?... Really Paramount knows look for the success!

Every new fact about the next project of Michelle Pfeiffer and Ashton Kutcher, Personal Effects, is coming little by little. Now we have a new name to add the cast: Kathy Bates will share screen with our Michelle.

With the sign of Bates, the project wins in "weight" and importance.

On the other hand, several sources say the project is based on Rick Moody's story "Mansion on the Hill," found in his collection, "Demonology."

"The Mansion on the Hill" follows the adventures of narrator Andrew Wakefield as he tries to come to terms with his sister's death - she was killed in a car accident just before her wedding. Coincidentally finding himself employed at a ritzy wedding-planning business, Andrew alternates memories of the past with clunky product-speak descriptions of his job.

And besides, other sources, such as Empire.com, tell that there isn't word yet on who Pfeiffer will play, but they guess that she’ll play big sis in flashbacks, which might go some way to rendering the 20 year gap between her and Kutcher somewhat realistic. This "new plot" change pretty of the old one, where Pfeiffer and Kutcher lived a love-story. I don't know if these sources are really reliable or simply they are wrong.

According the official site of Voltage Films, the plot is very different to this.

The reasons of these changes are due the uncomfortable Spam and the inactive accounts. I think it is the only way to get a pfan-pforum of pfriends, where everyone can say their free thoughts and discussions about Pfeiffer and her movies being repected -unlike other forums where people don't respect a different thought. Remember this forum was created as an alternative, a place of friends who love talk about Michelle with several points of view in a way funny.

The waited new project where we all will see Michelle Pfeiffer has arrived with a bit of controversy by many pfans who don't like this fiction-relationship between, Pfeiffer & Kutcher. For my part, I have to say that we —Oh! I look like Gollum!— , PfeifferTheFace, are glad for this new project and the choice of the co-star. From here, all our support.

Anyway we can say the project is confirmed to be done, and since the movie begins the filming this November 26 in Vancouver, we guess Michelle has already signed. Besides the official website of the production company, Voltage Pictures —you can see the page of Personal Effects too—, has already listed the movie with the names of Pfeiffer-Kutcher.

About the plot, the love story-drama, tells the story of two strangers, Linda (Michelle Pfeiffer) and Walter (Ashton Kutcher), who have both lost family members to murder. Their respective court cases bring them together.

Linda has a deaf son, who’s become increasingly troubled since his dad was murdered, but it’s Walter who helps him out – teaching him how to wrestle, and therefore funnelling his anger through sport.

I think it can be an interesting starting for a movie... let's hope...

It is very typical falling the year the publication of tons of lists and polls to choose anything. The most of them are absurd polls where it is looked for the vote of readers and users. On the other hand the results are conditioned for being in fashion in that moment or depending of the success of the last work launched.

A week ago we reported about the last poll at Entertainment Weekly site where it was chosen the Ultimate Female Hottie of All Time. Well, finally we have known the results. We can be glad because our Pfeiffer is among the Top Ten, at the Sixth place.

Here the list of the Top Ten:

#1- Angelina Jolie - 13%; #2 - Raquel Welch - 9%; #3 - Jessica Alba - 8%; #4 - Marilyn Monroe - 8%; #5 - Monica Bellucci - 7%; #6 - Michelle Pfeiffer - 6%; #7 - Catherine Zeta-Jones - 6%; #8 - Salma Hayek - 5%; #9 - Kate Beckinsale - 4%; #10 - Ava Gardner - 4% ...

For the male list the results are much weirder… is Wentworth Millar sexier than Paul Newman… well, I guess it depends of the women older 40 have voted, or if the girls younger 25 –I know they are the most- know Paul Newman… we could dicuss a lot about it… anyway this is the list: #1: Wentworth Miller 20%; #2: Christian Bale 11%; #3: Josh Holloway 9%; #4: Paul Newman 8%; #5 Gerard Butler 6%; #6 George Clooney 6%; #7 Robert Redford 4%; #8 Marlon Brando 3%; #9 Sean Connery 3%; #10 James Dean 3%.

Maybe Michelle has got this 6th place because she is on active again after five years away of the big-screen, although we can’t forget that during the 80’s and 90’s —the time she was on the top— she was placed among the first places on all lists…
