my movie

Director: Ridley Scott Stars: Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe (Full Cast)Studio: Universal Pictures
The Plot: In 1970s Harlem, Frank Lucas (Washington) constructs a heroin empire by stashing the drug inside the coffins of soldiers returning from Vietnam. Once he is dethroned by Det. Richie Roberts (Crowe), the former kingpin turns informant, the duo sets out to take down law enforcement agents and foreign nationals who are part of his syndicate.
THE BUZZ: We aren't afraid to point out the obvious: If the team of Scott + Crowe + Washington + Zaillian doesn't deliver at the box office and awards podiums, the only person who will walk away unscathed is the Teflon-coated Denz. Everything else you need to know about this project thus far can be found in this New York Times article. Totally worth signing-up!

Martian Child
Director: Menno Meyjes Stars: John Cusack, Amanda Peet, Bobby Coleman (Full Cast)Studio: New Line Cinema
The Plot: Trying to rebuild his life after his wife's death, a writer (Cusack) adopts a troubled young boy (Coleman) who believes he's a Martian.
THE BUZZ: Who says there aren't any roles for men in their 40s? John Cusack has never been busier, and while we haven't feel affection for any of his post-High Fidelity projects, we're most curious about Martian, Cusack's reunion with Max writer-director Menno Meyjes. And it's good to know author David Gerrold isn't just a consultant on the project - he's also an executive producer who we hear didn't sign off on the script until version #12 or something. Too bad the movie version of Gerrold won't be an out gay man, as in real life ... but at least Joan Cusack is playing David's sister!
