Take This Waltz Trailer: Michelle Williams Is Torn Between Two Lovers

Becky Kirsch — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 08:54:49 PST

The trailer for Take This Waltz has "precious indie movie" written all over it, right down to the fact that the preview gives us little in the way of plot. Instead, we glean what we can from watching Michelle Williams lead a comfortable married life with Seth Rogen, until she's enticed by a handsome new guy (played by Luke Kirby).

Though I wish this preview had more dialogue, I'm already looking forward to seeing Seth Rogen step outside his comfort zone with some deeper material than what he's usually given, and I can't wait to see him and Williams as an onscreen couple. The film marks the sophomore directing effort from Sarah Polley (who also directed Away From Her). Check out the trailer when you

Sony Pictures also played host to a Golden Globes bash last night! The stars from the company's many films got together to raise their glasses in honor of their many nominees. Rooney Mara of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo had been nominated for best actress in a drama, an honor that ultimately went to The Iron Lady's Meryl Streep. She nonetheless mingled with Sony execs and sipped champagne at the bash in her dark Nina Ricci gown. Moneyball's best supporting actor contender Jonah Hill said hello to Sacha Baron Cohen, who was out supporting Hugo and its best director winner Martin Scorsese. A Dangerous Method best supporting actor nom Viggo Mortensen was in a great mood while talking about Spanish soccer, and Jodie Foster hung out with her sons Christopher and Charlie.

Seth Rogen is a married man! The actor and his fiancée, Lauren Miller, tied the knot at Kunde Estate in Sonoma on Saturday in front of a star-studded group of guests. Seth and Lauren's family and friends, including Judd Apatow and wife Leslie Mann, Paul Rudd, Adam Sandler, Craig Robinson from The Office, and Jonah Hill, all came out to support the couple on their big day. After the ceremony, Seth and Lauren drove off in a vintage white convertible before joining the guests at the reception. Seth and Lauren got engaged in December of 2010 and have been together since 2004. Seth's wedding weekend coincided with the release of his new movie 50/50, which got strong reviews and came in fourth place at the box office. Seth was a producer on the movie; though, Saturday was all about an even bigger project - his new marriage. Congrats to the happy couple!

Watch, Pass, or Rent Video Review: 50/50

Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen play best friends who tackle cancer together in this week's release 50/50. But does the film strike the right balance between comedy and drama? See for yourself in our video review.

50/50's Seth Rogen and Will Reiser Talk About Their Real Friendship and "Amazing" Joseph Gordon-Levitt

BuzzSugar — Fri, 30 Sep 2011 03:05:00 PDT

50/50 star Seth Rogen and screenwriter Will Reiser sat down with us to talk about this week's comedy drama about a guy (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who gets cancer at a young age. The two friends talked about how they came to make the film (Reiser based it on his own experience with cancer), whether they ever actually tried to pick up girls using Will's illness, and how impressed they were by Gordon-Levitt's performance. Watch now.

50/50: It's OK to Laugh

Shannon Vestal — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 15:30:29 PDT

50/50 doesn't really deserve the label "cancer comedy," because it's so much more than that. The film finds humor in the realities of an ordeal that's often treated with kid gloves on screen, but how ever many laughs 50/50 finds (and there are many), the script never mocks the subject matter. The film stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Adam, a guy in his late 20s who's otherwise healthy until the day he finds out he has a rare form of cancer and a 50 percent chance of survival. His best friend Kyle (Seth Rogen) supports him and provides a bit of comic relief after Adam is diagnosed and then undergoes chemotherapy and surgery.

Rogen is one of the producers, but he has a more personal stake in the film - his friend Will Reiser wrote the screenplay based on his own experience with cancer several years ago. The end product is a film that's very honest, with elements that are funny, heartfelt, and sometimes scary. To find out why I loved 50/50, just keep reading.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen Celebrate 50/50 With Anna Kendrick

Allie Merriam — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 09:08:30 PDT

The stars of 50/50 gathered at NYC's Ziegfeld Theater last night in order to toast their East Coast premiere. Seth Rogen and Joseph Gordon-Levitt posed for photos with Anna Kendrick, who wore a side-swept updo, ahead of the screening, and then reconvened afterward for a bash at the Four Seasons restaurant. It's a big month for Seth, who's rumored to be tying the knot with longtime girlfriend Lauren Miller in the coming weeks. Lauren was on hand for his latest big evening, decked out in a pink plaid dress. Joe was apparently early for the whole affair and tweeted from his car beforehand. He wrote, "Not allowed to be early to a premiere. So yeah, sitting in a parked car." His good humor was also in evidence during the film's junket up in Toronto. We caught a few minutes with the actor, and Joseph dished about The Dark Knight Rises, music, and more.

Seth Rogen's cancer comedy 50/50 is a project close to home for the actor, since it's the real life story of his good friend Will Reiser's battle with the disease. We sat down with Seth at the Toronto Film Festival, the morning after the big premiere earned a standing ovation from the audience. No one was more surprised than Seth, who joked that he expects failure. Seth also shared which scene from the movie was word-for-word an actual incident he and Will went through and which scene he had the most fun shooting. Check out our interview and see 50/50 when it hits theaters on Friday.
