Frances McDormand Brings Elizabeth Strout Bestseller To Poignant Life On HBO. By Lori Acken Like many readers of Elizabeth Strout’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel Olive Kitteridge, actress Frances McDormand fell in love with the quirky title character the minute she met her on the page. But when a pal suggested that McDormand — wife and muse of filmmaker Joel Coen — bring the acerbic, observant Mainer to the big screen, she demurred for fear of diluting the magic of Strout’s world.

“For me, acting has always been just a social extension of my private reading life,” says the lifelong book collector, “so I was never interested in reading books to consider them as material to develop into other projects.”

A serendipitous encounter with The Wire creator David Simon, however, convinced McDormand that limited-series television could serve Olive’s story.

She optioned the book, tapping screenwriter Jane Anderson to help condense its 13 interwoven narratives down to the novel’s very essence — a quarter-century in the marriage of eccentric Olive, whose forthright ways mask a wounded soul, and her husband, Henry, a warmhearted pharmacist who does his best to care for his wife and cushion others, including the couple’s disaffected son, from her candor.

Five years in the making, McDormand’s extraordinary four-part Olive Kitteridge airs on HBO, featuring Richard Jenkins as Henry. “I tear up every time I think about him,” says McDormand of her costar, revealing that the two spent weeks rehearsing together before setting foot on set. “We’ve both been married to the same people for over 30 years. We both believe in the institution of marriage, and we both intend to die with our chosen partners. That was the story we wanted to tell.”

(Comedy) Schmidt and Jenko are back, and Capt.

Dickson is sending them to college. It’s the same plot as in 21 Jump Street — find the drug dealers to get to the suppliers. But we get a bigger budget in this film, so expect louder explosions and a keg full of collegiate laughs. Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Ice Cube (R, 1:52) Available Beginning Nov. 18 ON Demand menu: New Releases

Opposites Attract 22 Jump Street’s Schmidt and Jenko are fictional, but their relationship grew from two real-life bonds behind the camera: one between directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who knew each other in college even though Miller belonged to a fraternity and Lord joined a “socially progressive type of society”; and the other between actors Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum.

If I Stay (Drama) A tragic accident has Mia Hall fighting for survival. As she is walking the fine line between life and death, her reasons to live and to die explode in front of us, from relationships to family and friends and so much more. Will she stay with the living or has her time come?

Compare And Contrast The castle in Maleficent where Aurora’s christening took place was in fact a physical realization, both interior and exterior, of the castle in the 1959 animated film Sleeping Beauty. “The original animation is a fabulous piece of design,” says production designer Gary Freeman. “It was very avant-garde when it came out.

The artist really had an extraordinary approach to color and the conflicts of color.”

Age Before Beauty To address the five-year time jump in How to Train Your Dragon 2, director Dean DeBlois says, for most of the cast, “we could just retain their overall silhouette and stamp, but increase their size, change their wardrobe, age their face in subtle ways and give them different hairstyles.” Main character Hiccup required more. DeBlois wanted to make sure the character “didn’t become a classic Hollywood hero. He had to retain his gangly quality, because there’s so much of his charm in that, that dorky awkwardness that he possesses.”
