I wouldn't believe the onions statement Joanna. I think he was just kidding. During one of the previous interviews for Descendents he was asked about crying in that scene and he said he cried because Alexander Payne didn't cast him in Sideways.

Just like onions there are many different layers to George. LOL

Joanna, when I left the theater I felt the same way, good performance for George, Great performance for girls. The film kept after me all day and into the night, I began to realize what a great performance George gave, he was the glue that held everything together,the center of the storm. Haven't got to see it a second time or third like some of are greedy sisters (cindigirl) so I hope for the DVD release here in the US to be sooner rather than later.

Yes it is a thinking film isn't it, for many reasons too I found.
Glad it was so close to the book too, excellent script.
There're no dates available yet for the DVD's release...
which is a BIG Pain !

lucy, there's a funny story about me seeing it 3 times. The first time I walked in the theater without paying because I thought my girlfriend already paid. The second time I went alone and paid, the third time my gf paid for my ticket for my birthday. I originally saw it in the beginning of January, then it wasn't showing in the theater anymore but I was able to see it again at the end of January because they brought it back, probably because of Oscar buzz. It's still in the theater in Manville, NJ and I think unfortunately the DVD will not be released for a loooong time. LOL

Was just surfing, found that The Descendants DVD is due out March 13, 2012. Not really too long to wait. (doesn't belong here, but Dysfunctional Friends, SK's film is due out Feb. 3 and DVD is out Apr. 3. Thought it was weird for her to be in it as she's the only white person in it. Just looked at a trailer. Questioned in film as to why she went to a black college and she says she's black.) LOL!

Joanna, found it at :http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8684349

While I was looking for the site, I found that amazon.com has it as Feb. 28. Not sure if this is true, but really didn't feel like investigating. Guess I'm getting lazy. It's my bedtime soon and get that way about this time.

Here's a four-minute featurette on the design of The Descendants:



And there's this:

From EW: Inside Movies

George Clooney on his Oscar-nominated 'Descendants' role -- EXCLUSIVE VIDEO
by Dave Karger
Categories: Awards Season, Best Actor Oscar, Best Director Oscar, Best Picture Oscar, George Clooney, Oscars
Comments 19Add comment
Image Credit: Merie Wallace
One of the biggest question marks at this point in the awards season is Alexander Payne and George Clooney’s domestic drama The Descendants. It emerged from the Telluride and Toronto film festivals as the movie with the loudest buzz and scored rave reviews across the board upon its release in December. It has performed well with every major awards body, most notably winning the Best Drama and Best Actor prizes at the Golden Globes. Then it picked up five Oscar nominations, including Best Director and Best Editing, indicating strong overall support. But it hit a snag this past weekend, as The Artist‘s Jean Dujardin beat Clooney for the Best Actor SAG Award, while The Help took the Best Cast trophy.

While Best Picture seems like a race between The Artist and Hugo at this point, I’d say the two categories where The Descendants still has a shot at a win are Best Actor, which is now clearly Clooney or Dujardin, and Best Adapted Screenplay, which seems like a three-way contest between Descendants, Hugo, and Moneyball. Last week, I interviewed Clooney and his cast mates in front of an industry audience. In the clips below, the actor talks about why taking on the Descendants role made him nervous, what he learned about Hawaiian culture while making the film, and his climactic hospital-room scene.

[there's a video at the link]

Thanks to Henway for both of these finds

Hey Mel, maybe you can buy it on the "black market" as so many people did with the movie Titanic. LOL

You know truthfully, I've seen so many trailers on this movie I feel like I've seen at least half of it.

There's so much more to see than we'd seen in the clips, I found anyway. I knew the story from the book but all the house interiors and scenic shots are lovely to behold.
And seeing a HUGE close up face of George on the screen was fun, especially when unshaven !
Shailene can take close ups too, she's very photogenic. I hope she has a successful acting career.

I liked this from the article "linked" above.

The scene where you are running down the street -- you have that look on your face that's like out of a Coen brothers movie, but it's a real thing.

It was funny because the first time I did the run, Alexander started laughing, and I started laughing, and then I realized now I'm going to have to do this about 40 more times.
I just wanted him to actually have absolutely no athletic skill at all. I wanted him to feel like just a running goose, with all of his emotions sort of out there.

It's really fun to be in movies that you're proud of. You know, it's hard to do them.

Or David Russell -- we can talk about him later.

I actually was at a dinner party a couple of weeks ago with David. I saw him and he saw me and I walked over and I go, "Are we done?" and he's like, "Yeah, we're done." And he gave me a big hug, and I gave him a hug, and I said, "Listen, I don't want to be mad at you. We made a really good film ['Three Kings']." And he goes, "I don't want to be mad at you anymore." I go, "So let's stop." And he said, "Great." So it was a nice moment.



great, I'm glad Very Happy



And then as Grant Heslov and I finished writing, I really realized that I couldn't play that part (Murrow) because the character has a supreme sadness to him always -- a great, heavy weight on his shoulders that no one ascribes to me, ever. And it's something you can't act your way through. This was a part for me that I couldn't have done five years ago. This required me getting older, getting to a place in my career where I could do it.

huh

now?
