Opens Wednesday, Nov 23, 2011 Synopsis: Based on the famously missing chapter in Colin Clark's memoir The Prince, the Showgirl and Me, My Week with Marilyn reveals the enchanted week that the then-lowly production assistant spent with the most famous celebrity of the era during the production of the classic 1957 comedy romance The Prince and the Showgirl. The year was 1956. Colin Clark was an ambitious 23 year old determined to make a name for himself in film. As summer gets underway, Clark manages to land a position as a production assistant on the film The Prince and the Showgirl, starring Marilyn Monroe (Michelle Williams) and Sir Laurence Olivier (Kenneth Branagh). Monroe had just gotten married to playwright Arthur Miller (Dougray Scott), and the newlyweds were on their honeymoon as production got underway. Later, when Miller leaves, young Clark seizes the opportunity to befriend the platinum blonde beauty, and give her a taste of everyday life in England - far away from the bright lights of Hollywood and the suffocating pressures of fame. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Michelle Williams, Eddie Redmayne, Kenneth Branagh, Dougray Scott Movie Details Play Trailer

Now Playing Synopsis: Simultaneously billed as a post-noir excursion with a "pulp" feel, and a romantic whodunit, this feature was produced as an homage to various thriller writers and also to Marilyn Monroe. It stars Jean-Paul Rouve as David, a crime author who falls under the spell of severe writer's block and winds up stranded in Mouthe, a snowy commune in Eastern France. Many in the town currently grieve the loss of its local celebrity, a blonde weather girl named Candice, who disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Sensing an opportunity to write a best-seller on the subject, David begins sleuthing around the town and discovers rather quickly that the locals are all hiding something. At the same time, he also learns much about his subject -- including the degree to which the locals in the community misunderstood her, and curiously, the ways in which her own tragic story parallels that of Monroe. Director Gérald Hustache-Mathieu toys with the conventions of the traditional thriller while lacing the movie with a great deal of wit and visual influence from the Coen brothers' Fargo (1996). ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi Cast: Jean-Paul Rouve, Sophie Quinton, Guillaume Gouix, Arsinée Khanjian, Olivier Rabourdin Movie Details
