I’m awesome. I wrote a book. It’s got little to do with movies. Download and read “Thank You, Goodnight” right HERE for free.
And now, you can follow me on Twitter. Find me here, my oh so original name on the thing is Stipp so come on and follow my stray ramblings. From standing in a pool of toilet water to talking about nothing of great importance you can ensure that I send out quality.
This year’s first screening for the faithful legion of QuickStopEntertainment readers living in Arizona is for DUPLICITY, starring Julia Roberts and Clive Owen.
To give you an idea of how far Clive Owen has come since CROUPIER (a fabulous film filled with dark nooks and crannies) the attraction, for me, isn’t so much Roberts as it is Clive. I think he’s shown himself capable of dynamic range and it’s nice to see him in a movie that I think everyone can agree looks to be light and airy like a delicate madeleine pastry. With the heady box office offerings as of late it’s just nice to have one of these kinds of films to look forward to.
The screening is for this upcoming Monday, March 16, at 7 PM at Harkins Fashion Square in Scottsdale, Arizona. The film opens on March 20th but for those interested in seeing DUPLICITY a few days early just drop me a line at Christopher_Stipp@yahoo.com. It’s just that easy.
The film’s synopsis:
CIA officer Claire Stenwick (Roberts) and MI6 agent Ray Koval (Owen) have left the world of government intelligence to cash in on the highly profitable cold war raging between two rival multinational corporations. Their mission? Secure the formula for a product that will bring a fortune to the company that patents it first.
For their employers—industry titan Howard Tully (Tom Wilkinson) and buccaneer CEO Dick Garsik (Paul Giamatti)— nothing is out of bounds. But as the stakes rise, the mystery deepens and the tactics get dirtier, the trickiest secret for Claire and Ray is their growing attraction. And as they each try to stay one double-cross ahead, two career loners find their schemes endangered by the only thing they can’t cheat their way out of: love.
