“Love Me Do” on the 50th anniversary of its release for use in filming a story about the Beatles at Liverpool’s historic Cavern Club, the shop that sold the disc. Paul McCartney was only 16 years old when he composed, in 1958, the [Love Me Do] song. John Lennon contributed to the bridge of the song. With only 18 (different) words and mainly 2 (+1) chords they reached No 17 on the UK Record Retailer charts (end of 1962). No wonder that after a while they were composing No 1 hits.

From his new book, Total Recall, the former California governor wrote about an affair with his one-time co-star Brigitte Nielsen that happened back in the 1980’s. His new autobiography out, the aptly titled Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story, Schwarzenegger opened up about his scandalous personal life and his biggest secret: refusing to take responsibility for his 1996 betrayal when he cheated on Maria with the family maid, Mildred Baena, who bore his son, Joseph. Arnold said: “The stupidest thing I’ve done in the whole relationship.”

Jason Statham’s latest film is Parker, in which he plays a thief who’s double-crossed by his crew and left for dead. Later, he teams up with the feisty Leslie (Jennifer López), and resolves to get his stolen cash back. All this, of course, is an excuse for our hero to break the noses and generally Statham every member of the supporting cast, including Taylor Hackford, Michael Chiklis and Nick Nolte.

Terminator Salvation will be set in London. The original post gives little more detail on the matter, except that it will be ‘present day’ (2011) so all the cast figured out time travel to the degree where they can send more than one naked entity. So you’re going to have hunter killers and transports and harvesters and everything arriving in our time and Connor fighting back with conventional military warfare.
Summer is a good season for “The Oranges”
By GalaTView Staff
The Oranges is a comedy about two families, who have been lifelong friends, and the hilarity that ensues when a rebellious daughter returns home for the holidays and causes a scandal that forces everyone to re-examine what happiness really means to them.
David and Paige Walling (Hugh Laurie, Catherine Keener) and Terry and Cathy Ostroff (Oliver Platt, Allison Janney) are best friends and neighbors living on Orange Drive in suburban New Jersey. Their comfortable existence goes awry when prodigal daughter Nina Ostroff (Leighton Meester), newly broken up with her fiancé Ethan (Sam Rosen), returns home for Thanksgiving after a five-year absence. Rather than developing an interest in the successful son of her neighbors, Toby Walling (Adam Brody), which would please both families, it’s her parents’ best friend David who captures Nina’s attention.
When the connection between Nina and David becomes undeniable, everyone’s lives are thrown into upheaval, particularly Vanessa Walling’s (Alia Shawkat), Nina’s childhood best friend. It’s not long before the ramifications of the affair begin to work on all of the family members in unexpected and hilarious ways, leading everyone to reawaken to their lives and reassess what it means to be happy. This movie seems to have a little bit of everything where the main element is love between a man and woman and this man is married but has a complicated relationship with a very young woman due she does not have enough maturity as man has. It’s a great relationship with differences of age but their reality is harder than they thought so their age and responsibilities make a difference in this couple. Definitely is a good movie will make you to think about relationships and modern couples of these days that you can enjoy it in Theaters October 5th, 2012.

“Sleepwalk with Me” is a heartwarming comedy

Sleepwalk with Me is a comedy written by, directed by and starring comedian Mike Birbiglia, based on a true story he told in his one-man off-Broadway show and his first book. The film follows the journey of an aspiring comedian in denial about his girlfriend, his career, and, most significantly, his sleepwalking disorder. The more he fails to express his true feelings, the more his anxiety comes out in increasingly funny and dangerous sleepwalking incidents.
This is incorporating several scenarios and characters and inserting them into ludicrous situations including the pressure to marry, the mystery of sleep disorders and the single-minded, near-delusional ambition of a comedian who’ll drive long miles in a beat-up Volvo to score some laughs – or possibly none. In few words is a self-portrait of a guy who can’t control a major portion of his life when you get right down to it, could describe almost any of us.
It was a smart move for Birbiglia so makes the movie easy to like.

The Korean Cultural Center LA and Korea Tourism Organization LA are proud to present the US premiere of “2012 Korea in Motion – Dance Musical ’Sachoom’” at the Ford Amphitheatre on September 8, 2012 at 8pm. “Sachoom” is the popular Korean dance phenomenon that has been captivating audiences since its debut in 2004 with its nonverbal, ALL DANCE approach to telling the coming of age story of three brothers, Jun, Sun and Bin. The ALL AGES show is the follow-up to last year’s electrifying KCCLA production, “Rhythm and Passion of Korea,” which was nominated for a Los Angeles Area Emmy Award for its airing on KCET.
Since the first stage performance opened in 2004, “Sachoom” has had over 1,900 performances to date throughout Asia, Russia and England. It continues to gain tremendous popularity as it makes its way to new regions. The musical was also the first Korean production to perform at the opening ceremonies of the 2008 Edinburgh Festival Fringe (August 3-25, 2008) and garnered various international award nominations.
“Sachoom” will feature 14 of Korea’s top up-and-coming dancers performing elaborate choreographed numbers over a pulsating soundtrack. The entire stage will be filled with movement as the story comes to life in this dance spectacular. The production will undoubtedly capture the hearts of Americans from all cultural backgrounds as it makes its way for the first time to the great melting pot of the West: Los Angeles. Integration of popular dance genres, including hip-hop, jazz, contemporary dance, break dancing and dynamic music, will allow audiences from all generations and cultural backgrounds to connect with the engaging yet simple storyline. Vibrant visuals and uplifting musical numbers seamlessly transcend language.
