February 27

From Allison: Don't remember if this was previously posted but Ron Howard was on a show back in Sept. called CenterStage (I just watched a repeat) and here's what he had to say about Russell: Directing the complex Russell Crowe in A Beautiful Mind -- "He's a challenging guy, because he's very intense. And he's wrapped up in what he's doing, he's a dynamic guy, he's his own guy, he won't just play ball just to play ball, but he also never sandbags a note. Like, if you're the director and you say, "Please, just try it this way," he gives it the same 110%...even if he says, "I don't really agree with the idea, I don't think that's going to work." And you have to understand that there's this intensity that he has, and I would say it's a little bit like, being on a, a tropical island. It's like the weather patterns will change…it might even get kind of rainy and dark for a moment, but the sun will come out again. That's the way I think it is working with Russell, and it's, it's well worth it, because he's a true artist."

The Hollywood Reporter: Rough Seas on 'Noah': Darren Aronofsky Opens Up on the Biblical Battle to Woo Christians (and Everyone Else)

The Hollywood Reporter: Winter's Tale Review (ouch!) - "...Crowe is one tough dude here in a character who is malevolence and nothing but. Pearly would seem to outweigh Peter by at least 75 pounds, making a major brawl between as far-fetched as just about everything else in this unbelievable tale."

Cinema Blend: Noah Soundtrack -- And in other Noah news, Aronofsky has dropped some details on its soundtrack. Of course Clint Mansell will be the film's composer, as he's been making music for Aronofsky's movies since 1998's Pi. But this time he's getting some assistance from the celebrated string foursome Kronos Quartet. And that's not all. American punk icon Patty Smith has also been brought on board to contribute a very special song to the film's soundscape. (Aronofsky - "She wrote this incredible lullaby that Russell Crowe sings to Emma Watson in the movie. It's really touching and beautiful.") - Thanks, Allison
