How do actors create characters? Director Jason Reitman probes the question each year with his Film Independent at Lacma Live Read series. He will kick off the Fall season with a staging of "American Beauty." The iconic Oscar-winning screenplay from writer Alan Ball will be performed on Thursday, October 16, with a yet-to-be-announced set of actors. It's a hot ticket, and likely to sell out immediately. Film Independent staged a reading of "American Beauty" back at 2012's Tiff, with Bryan Cranston in the role of Lester Burnham (originally Kevin Spacey), Christina Hendricks as his pent-up wife Carolyn (Annette Bening), Mae Whitman as willful daughter Jane (Thora Birch) and Adam Driver as creepy-sensitive neighbor Ricky Fitts (Wes Bentley). Who will it be this year? Check out new poster art Little Rock-based artist Matt Owen, below. Jason Reitman's "Men, Women and Children" just played Tiff and opens limited on October 17. Meanwhile,...

I'm really hoping that Quentin Tarantino turns his script for The Hateful Eight into a movie someday. He's currently working on a new draft of it, so there's a good chance that it will happen. He wouldn't be working on it if he still didn't want to turn it into a movie. Tarantino's films are so damn entertaining, and from the reports that I've read of the live read, this sounds like it would make a great flick.
Matt Owen created the poster above for the event that took place a couple weeks back. The stage performance featured Samuel L. Jackson, James Parks, Kurt Russell, Amber Tamblyn, Walton Goggins, Denis Menochet, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Bruce Dern, Dana Gourrier, Zoe Bell, and James Remar. It was put on as a benefit for Film Independent in Los Angeles.

On Easter weekend, Quentin Tarantino staged a sold-out live read of his script for "The Hateful Eight" at Downtown La's Ace Hotel. Film Independent, which hosted the event, is now selling the script's stylish, one-of-a-kind poster. Check it out below. "Hateful Eight" has been all-abuzz lately, as Tarantino recently reopened his lawsuit against Gawker, which in January posted a link to a leaked Pdf of the Western via its Defamer site, provoking a salvo of finger-pointing. At the live read event (full report here) Tarantino said he's writing a second draft and might do a third. One of his reps said he's likely to direct the film after all, but is also working on some other scripts that might go first. In the meantime, you can buy the 16" x 20" poster designed by Matt Owen for $45.00 here.
