The OFFHOLLYWOOD Reporter

I just “rebooted” the buzz/blog section of our website into The OFFHOLLYWOOD REPORTER.

Still a work-in-progress – but I I’ve got Twitter integration and sub-categories for NEWS, APPS, GEAR, R3D, PLAYERS, BIZ and OT.

So, I can just post pretty much anything and tag it to the appropriate category – keeping NEWS to updates on projects the company has supported. There are RSS feeds for each subcategory.

I think this new format and the Twitter functionality will lend to me posting much more.

4:44 Last Day on Earth

4:44 LAST DAY ON EARTH will premiere at the 68th Venice International Film Festival

How would we spend our final hours on Earth? And what does how we choose to die say about how we have chosen to live? In the hands of the inimitable Abel Ferrara, this thought experiment takes on a visceral immediacy. With the planet on the verge of extinction, a New York couple (Willem Dafoe and Shanyn Leigh) cycle through moments of anxiety, ecstacy, and torpor. As they sink into the havens of sex and art, and Skype last goodbyes in a Lower East Side apartment filled with screens bearing tidings of doom and salvation, the film becomes one of Ferrara’s most potent and intimate expressions of spiritual crisis. An apocalyptic trance film, 4:44 is also a mournful valentine to Ferrara’s beloved New York: the director’s first fiction feature to be filmed entirely in the city in over a decade, a haunting vision of doom in the lower Manhattan skyline.
