According to ChicagoNow.com, John Curran’s upcoming crime drama Stone will be premiering October 7 at this year’s Chicago International Film Festival. According to the site, confirmed premiere guests so far only include director Curran and star Edward “Stone” Norton, however more special guests will be announced soon, one of which will hopefully be Milla Jovovich. Tickets to the event are available via the festival website.
Update Aug 19: Check out what Chicago International Film Festival founder Michael Kutza had to say on the festival’s opening night presentation, Stone. From ChicagoNow.com:
De Niro pulls in his best performance in a decade. Norton and Conroy’s performances are fantastic and Milla Jovovich offers a captivating breakthrough performance – the entire ensemble is at the top of their game.

Have a look at this incredibly encouraging and positive “review-esque” write-up regarding John Curran’s crime drama Stone from OpposingViews.com. Although Stone‘s production company Overture has blocked the publication of all reviews on the film until its Toronto International Film Festival premiere this September, the reviewer was so impressed with the film (and the cast, including Milla Jovovich, might I add) that he actually contacted Overture to be allowed to say a word on it. Wow! Full article under the cut.
The trailer for John Curran’s Stone (Overture, 10.8) makes it seem like a more-or-less conventional crime melodrama. In the midst of evaluating an apparently psychopathic convict (Edward Norton) regarding an upcoming parole hearing, a retirement-age prison counselor (Robert De Niro) succumbs to sexual favors offered by the prisoner’s scheming wife (Milla Jovovich). We all know where this is likely to go. Exposure, revenge, moral ruin, chaos.

Last May we reported that Milla Jovovich was featured in an article called “Stylish Thinking” in the June 2010 issue of UK Elle. Well, looks like that article has now been reprinted for the September issue of Canadian Elle, and thanks to Mirik we’ve been able to update the gallery with a hi-res scan of it. You’ll notice Milla is carrying the Tommy Hilfiger Breast Health International bag in the (new) picture. Thanks again to Mirik for sending in the scan!

Anderson’s upcoming 3D spectacle The Three Musketeers, meaning production has finally begun in Germany.
