Let's Go See the Stars
Once we’ve gobbled up every last crumb of Christmas pud, there’s little left to do but kick back and watch a flick.
With its star-studded cast from Penélope Cruz and Nicole Kidman to Judi Dench and Sophia Loren, there’s no way we are missing Nine on the big screen.
Based on Federico Fellini’s 1963 classic autobiographical film 8½, Rob Marshall’s version focuses on Italian film director Guido Contini (Day-Lewis) as he struggles to mount his ninth film while juggling the seven women in his life: his wife (Cotillard), his mistress (Cruz), his star (Kidman), his costume designer and confidante (Dench), his mother (Loren), an American journalist (Hudson) and a prostitute (Fergie).
How better to spend Christmas night than watching a bevy of big screen stars singing and dancing their hearts out? Don’t mind us if we jump up on our chair and join in.
Happy Christmas!
Nine is released on December 25, 2009, www.nine-movie.com
