Interview / Colin Farrell, Martin McDonagh / Charlie Rose

  • Apr 23, 2008
  • 1 comment

If you want to watch good conversations as opposed to Perez Hilton press, you watch Charlie Rose's interviews. Several years ago Colin Farrell also sat at Charlie's table along with Oliver Stone and Angelina Jolie to discuss "Alexander", an interview that is insanely interesting regardless of wether you liked "Alexander" or not (for the record, I did). I think about a decade ago, Martin McDonagh also sat at this table talking about his plays and writing, saying he'd love to make a film someday.

The two men return to Charlie Rose's table; Colin getting much more appreciated as an actor than back in the Alexander times, Martin McDonagh having made a film like he wanted to. Interesting! Watch the clip here.

    Time flies when you're having fun. Seems like only yesterday they were still filming and here's the DVD cover. Interesting choice of lay-out.

    Thanks to Marina from Colin Farrell Fansite

    These are the official screencaps from the German In Bruges site - http://www.brueggesehenundsterben.de/

    This has to be the best looking official site so far. Also there is a new In Bruges application on Facebook, another official one, this time for the UK. I would be lying if I said you should bother to try and win the prize - nobody ever got the prize from the US application.

    Photograph Rights
    These photographs were taken from the website mentioned above and belong to Focus Features, who owns all rights to them. The function of the In Bruges Blog is to promote the film In Bruges, and thus it supports Focus Features' goal. This is a non-profit website, and I do not make any money whatsoever off the pictures or anything I post on this blog. These pictures were lovingly taken without permission, but since all it does is support the cause I suggest nobody tries to sue my ass. You can sue my ass for slamming the Facebook competitions.

    UK Release

    • Apr 19, 2008
    • Post a comment

    Since yesterday the film is officially released in the UK. There was no premiere. Fuck am I happy I didn't go! Would've been for nothing and it's not like it'd have been a cheap mistake.

    It was predictable as Colin Farrell is currently in Spain filming "Triage", Ralph Fiennes is busy on stage (God of Carnage), Brendan Gleeson has a thing or two to do as well I'm sure. Martin McDonagh was planning on travelling around after the releases so I guess that's where he'd be. I guess the promotion is officially over for them!

    Dutch "Preview Magazine" announces In Bruges

    • Apr 19, 2008
    • Post a comment

    Speelfilmdebuut van de Ierse toneelschrijver Martin McDonagh, en eerder dit jaar de openingsfilm van het Sundance-festival. Twee Ierse huurmoordenaars hebben een klus verprutst en moeten zich nu in Brugge gedeisd houden. De een (Colin Farrell) vindt het daar een hel, de ander (Brendan Gleeson) geniet van de gezelligheid en de fraaie architectuur. De mix van puike dialogen en gestileerd geweld kon al menig recensent bekoren.

    Source: Preview Magazine (free magazine) @ The Netherlands

    Translation:

    Feature film debut of Irish playwright Martin McDonagh, and earlier this year opening feature for the Sundance-festival. Two Irish hitmen messed up a job and now have to hide out in Bruges. One (Colin Farrell) thinks it is hell, the other (Brendan Gleeson) enjoys the friendly atmosphere and the beautiful architecture. The mix of witty dialogues and styled violence pleased many filmcritics.

    The article says the Dutch release date is 5 June, which it's not. It's 26 June! Nonetheless glad to see the film is already being promoted here, it doesn't hurt at all.

     

    PS. I know, I just posted. Don't ask.

    Closing Up Shop

    • Mar 29, 2008
    • Post a comment

    To my regret, this will be my last post.

    The In Bruges Blog and In Bruges Fansite will stay online, if it's up to me indefinitely. However it will be an archive. If huge things or fun things come up and I have the time, I will happily break my vow for a second and quickly post it on the site anyway. But consider the shop closed.

    The only thing that is still to come is a bigger Soundtrack Section on the website. I will include my own review also.

    I have a big list of reasons for closing up shop, but I'm not sure wether I should share this with you or not. These are my own reasons, and the main reason will always be that I am simply not one of those straight A students nor am I someone who takes their opportunity to go to college lightly. Studies go first, and let's just say I haven't found enough reason to make college and In Bruges share time anymore.

    Maybe later I will edit this post with a list of reasons, but probably not. It would be a long list anyhow, so I'm pretty sure you can think of a reason or two.

    The fanlisting will remain open for new members, also indefinitely. If you want to keep up with news about In Bruges, I suggest you join Colin Farrell Fansite or Ralph Fiennes Corner, where I will remain a member as I have been for a long time, and where news will be posted if it comes up - wether by me or by other members.

    If you wish to discuss In Bruges, break into my new forum for MartinMcDonagh.Com - the forum is located here and I'd appreciate it if you'd break the silence and discuss In Bruges all you want however you want.

    By the way a late happy birthday to Martin McDonagh!

    Anyway. I've really enjoyed making this blog and fansite, and I've loved hearing from all of you. Keep supporting the film, no matter when it comes out. Even if you do download it, which is not something I will openly say I understand (maybe secretly but definately not openly), don't forget to go see this one on the big screen. I'm sure it is a great film and worth the money, and if anything Martin McDonagh and his cast are worth the support.

    Those who were in Bruges a year ago - January, February, March 2007 - cherish the memories. Those who loved the film, keep spreading the love. Adios amigos!

    My Plea to Universal Pictures

    • Mar 28, 2008
    • Post a comment

    Now I know that Universal Pictures knows about this website. I know fairly certainly that they have read stuff on here more than once. Which makes sense and is really cool.

    I have one plea for Universal. Just one. If you're gonna change the Greek release date last minute, go ahead, they can wait another week. If you're gonna postpone the Belgian release date, fine, they've accepted it, they really don't care anymore.

    But I am begging you on my online knees to PLEASE change the Dutch release date back. You had it on 5 June, and now it's gone to 26 June. I am begging you this because this way I will never see this film here.

    Just before that release date I am leaving for Arizona and California, to visit family. I will be staying there for two months. This way I will miss the entire Dutch release. I am begging you please make the release date earlier. Please. I want to see this film here and support it. It is a bit ironic that I have invested days and days into this website and that I should be the one to miss the release. I think it would be very cruel. I'd have to wait for the DVD release, which'll be nearing 2009 I'm sure.

    Please don't do that to me. I know I'm just one person, but I was gonna go see it at least five times and bring everyone and anyone I could. I know this is a laugh to you, but come on. When are you going to start cutting us some slack. Please?

    A new site is being born! The site MartinMcDonagh.Com is currently under construction, as I designed its new layout which will soon appear.

    Also it has a new forum located at http://martinmcdonagh.invisionplus.net where I will be the forum moderator. I'd be happy to see you there, we have an In Bruges section on the still empty forum so by all means discuss the film there!
