Quote:
This screen average is about the same as About Time and To The Wonder, although both of them opened on a smaller number of screens. |

Wow! Super interesting, thanks for sharing that, Nick! I can't believe About Time opened on a smaller number of screens. It was less than HALF the driving distance from me as this one is!
I've made plans to drive to see it on Monday though, I'm bringing my aunt with me. ![]() __________________

This article from Indiewire suggests that Roadside Attractions plan to expand AMWM to approximately 600 screens next week: Quote:
EDIT: I LOVE this review from Clayton Davis, a critic who owns the website Awards Circuit. Here's what he had to say about Rachel: Quote:

I'm totally dreading how I'm going to go see it Monday and then later in the week realize it's going to be so much closer to me.
![]() And THAT REVIEW!!!! Killer! That's amazing, and I can't WAIT to see her in this role, I'm gonna cry about it. I am so so so hoping this is going to kick down doors for her and she's going to start getting the parts that are right for her. I know it isn't hugely popular, but I feel like people are going to want to see it because of PSH's involvement and that's going to mean more people will see Rachel's work too and just. I don't know, man. I want this to mean big things for her career so badly. __________________

![]() Also, interesting that Canadian director/writer Paul Haggis was at the premiere for A Most Wanted Man. He won 2 Oscars for "Crash" (best film/screenplay), was nominated also for writing "Million Dollar Baby", penned the screenplay for a couple of Bond movies (Casino Royale/Quantum of Solace), and also wrote "The Last Kiss", which Rachel was originally cast in before dropping out. He also wrote the script for the upcoming "Honeymoon with Harry", which Rachel was attached to at some stage. His most recent work hasn't been received all that well by critics, but it would be great to see Rachel work with him if he can rediscover the magic he worked some 10 years ago. Either way, we definitely know that Paul would have seen Rachel's performance at last week's premiere ![]() |

The review you just posted makes me so HAPPY Nick! I've read one or two reviews that thought Rachel was the weak link and most reviews didn't even mention Rachel's performance so I'm happy this one did. This line really stood out for me: "her role as Annabel shows a deeper talent that is aching to be realized by the right director"
Nice spotting and detective work on Paul Haggis and I agree. I would love it if he writes a good screenplay for Rachel ![]() EDIT: New still that hasn't been posted here: ![]() __________________

I think I should also mention that Magic in the Moonlight, which also opened up strong, is rated PG-13 and AMWM is rated R. Magic in the Moonlight's average was way better but the movie can already reach a bigger audience.
Did anyone see it already? ![]() __________________

I just got a chance to see it tonight. And guys, GUYS, I loved it. But I knew I would love it. Because I love everything. And it's Rachel and PSH and Robin Wright and it was so great and I brought my aunt along to see it too and she said she really liked it as well and just alkjsdf. It was in this teeny tiny little indie cinema that only had like 44 seats in it, but almost every single one of the seats was filled by the time it started, which was amazing, because I've worked at a movie theater before and sometimes we didn't even have five people see a film on Monday evening, so I was actually quite delighted about it! And plus, if the "auditorium" only has 44 seats, then 35+ of them filling up is a pretty good average for that cinema.
Rachel was brilliant though. The accent wasn't that great, but in a film with a bunch of diverse accents and histories and things like that, I don't think it distracted at all from the film. She definitely kept up with the heavyweights in her acting though, OF COURSE, as we all knew. And I think I really would say that, after PSH's character, hers was probably most prominent. She's supporting for sure, but she's got more screentime than Robin Wright and Willem Dafoe and Daniel Bruhl (the reviews were right IMO, he was SORELY underused), but I'd say she and Nina Hoss had the next most screentime, and hers was definitely infinitely more emotional than Nina's. ANYWAY, I loved it, that's my point. My aunt said she was wonderful. Hearts for eyes. She was stunning and talented and emotional and all of the things we love her for. ALSO: It's fun to note that there were a few moments in the film that drew chuckles out of the audience. Once was just some spy dude, most were from PSH, but at least two or three were from Rachel herself. So out of the entire cast, her being 1/3 who had the timing to make the audience chuckle made me very happy. ETA: I saw this posted on the official Facebook account, but the NY Times has a video of Anton Corbijn doing the anatomy of a scene featuring one of the sequences Rachel is in! __________________
