The Overboard Cast Dish on Working on the Film
Fun interview with Anna Faris and Eugenio Derbez.
Eva Longoria and Mel Rodriguez. Good talk about Overboard.
Forget what you remember of the original 1987 Overboard (Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russell), ’cause this new version with Eugenio Derbez and Anna Faris has its own sensibility. I enjoyed all the chemistry between all the actors and I had quite a few chuckles with the storyline.
Press day with Overboard actors Omar Chaparro and Jesùs Ochoa.

In Spanish
We got to sit down and talk with the stars of the film. Now you can listen in on their take of making this Overboard.
The plot: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures (MGM) and Pantelion Films presents Overboard, a fresh take on the iconic romantic comedy. In a splashy new twist, Overboard focuses on “Leonardo” (Derbez), a selfish, spoiled, rich playboy from Mexico’s richest family and “Kate” (Faris), a working class single mom of three hired to clean Leonardo’s luxury yacht. After unjustly firing Kate and refusing to pay her, Leonardo falls overboard when partying too hard and wakes up on the Oregon coast with amnesia.
Full cast: Eva Longoria, Mel Rodriguez, Omar Chaparro, Josh Segarra, Jesús Ochoa, Hannah Nordberg, Alyvia Alyn Lind, Payton Lepinski, Swoosie Kurtz, Cecilia Suárez, Fernando Luján, and John Hannah.
Bad Samaritan Has the Scare Factor
©2018 Angela María Ortíz S.
Bad Samaritan has the scare factor for a thriller, which was good, but I think the storyline had some holes that left me questioning David Tennant’s character background that led him to be a psychopath. The other two main actors, played by Robert Sheehan and Carlito Olivero, are good, even though their characters made some bad choices.

The plot: Bad Samaritan centers on two young car valets who use their business as a front to burglarize houses of their unsuspecting patrons. Life is good for these petty thieves until they target the wrong house, changing their lives forever.
We caught up with writer Brandon Boyce, actors Robert Sheehan, Carlito Olivero, and director Dean Devlin. They told us how it was to work on this project and how proud they are of this independent film. Click on the audio box to listen in.

He Was a Piece of Work, Genius: Picasso
As an artist, I’ve always admired Picasso’s talent. He had a way of breaking down an image to its most primitive form and giving the viewer something to ponder. As a human being, he was quite complicated.
Now, National Geographic new season of the Emmy-nominated series, Genius is back, with Picasso. We have seen four of the episodes and spoken to two of the stars of the series, Poppy Delevingne (Marie-Thérèse Walter) and T.R. Knight (Max Jacob). You can listen in on the conversation by clicking on the audio button.
Delevingne & Knight
We enjoyed the episodes we watched because they are more than just about Picasso; they’re also about many of the talented people around him who had interesting lives themselves. Now we are looking forward to the upcoming episodes, starring Antonio Banderas (Pablo Picasso), Alex Rich (younger Pablo Picasso), Samantha Colley (Dora Maar), and Clémence Poésy (Françoise Gilot).
Genius: Picasso is on Tuesdays at 9/8c on NETGEO.
Book Club Coming on May 18

The lives of these four lifelong friends are turned upside down after reading the infamous 50 Shades of Grey, catapulting them into a series of outrageous life choices.

Traffik A Suspense Thriller is in Theaters Now
Traffik is a very ambitious film on a very heart-wrenching subject: modern day slavery and human trafficking.
Laz Alonso and Roselyn Sanchez
It was nice to see actors you like being featured as leads in an action thriller. Watching Roselyn Sanchez and Laz Alonso speak Spanish without subtitles looked very natural to me.
The film is not perfect, but the subject matter isn’t easy to portray, either. It has a strong visual start and direction, but you found yourself wanting to hurt some of the lead characters because of the decisions they made. By the end of the film, the dialogue had started to feel kind of “off” for me, but writer/director Deon Taylor does a great job with his talent in front of the camera, and the wonderful work of cinematographer Dante Spinotti and film editor Melissa Kent behind the camera kept you watching. It also has a great soundtrack.
