A Look Inside Freckleface Strawberry
Genre: Feature Film-Drama
Rating: PG13
Release Date: 24-AUG-2004
Media Type: DVDThis uniquely beautiful film--from one of the smartest and most idiosyncrat! ic of contemporary directors, Todd Haynes (Safe, Ve! lvet Gol dmine)--takes the lush 1950s visual style of so-called women's pictures (particularly those of Douglas Sirk, director of Imitation of Life and Magnificent Obsession) to tell a story that mixes both sexual and racial prejudice. Julianne Moore, an amazing fusion of vulnerability and will power, plays a housewife whose husband (Dennis Quaid) has a secret gay life. When she finds solace in the company of a black gardener (Dennis Haysbert), rumors and peer pressure destroy any chance she has at happiness. It's astonishing how a movie with such a stylized veneer can be so emotionally compelling; the cast and filmmakers have such an impeccable command of the look and feel of the genre that every moment is simultaneously artificial and deeply felt. Far from Heaven is ingenious and completely engrossing. --Bret Fetzer
Freckleface Strawberry and Windy Pants Patrick are as different as can be-but that doesn't stop them from being the be! st of friends. After all, they have a lot of important things in common, like having families and liking recess and loving books. But the rest of the kids don't see it that way. They think that girls and boys are just too different to be friends. So one day, Freckleface decides NOT to play with Windy Pants Patrick. And he decides not to play with her. And nothing really changes . . . or does it? She still eats lunch and plays and reads books-and so does he. So why don't those things feel fun anymore?
Witty, warmhearted, and brought to life with LeUyen Pham's gentle hilarity, Julianne Moore's latest book celebrates the importance of recognizing-and keeping-a true friend.
"Intriguing, darkly erotic." -Tom Keogh, Seattle Times
"A supercharged erotic thriller!" -Caryn James, Marie Claire
"â¦a sexually charged dramaâ¦" -Bruce Kirkland, Toronto Sun
"good, dirty fun." -Ain't It Cool News
"devilishly sexy." -Paul Fischer, Dark Horizons
In the erotic thriller Chloe, Dr. Catherine Stewart (Julianne Moore, A Single Man) suspects that her husband David (Liam Neeson, Taken) is cheating on her. So she hires an escort named Chloe (Amanda Seyfried, Mamma Mia!) to offer herself to him, to see how he responds--but Catherine has a surprising response to what unfolds, and Chloe becomes drawn deeply into the doctor's life. Chloe is an atypical "Hollywood" film from Canadian auteur Atom Egoyan (! The Sweet Hereafter, Exotica), as it features big stars, a script Egoyan didn't write himself (it's by Erin Cressida Wilson, the screenwriter of Secretary), an editing rhythm notably less idiosyncratic than Egoyan films of old, and an ending that feels forced and unsatisfying. But Chloe explores classic Egoyan obsessions: voyeurism, jealousy, and betrayal. As the movie unfolds, the performances are full of rich details, capturing jagged emotional edges that make the somewhat-implausible plot compelling. Chloe doesn't have the uncanny psychological acuity of Egoyan's best films, but anyone who's enjoyed this unique director's earlier work will find much to enjoy. --Bret Fetzer

down their âdonor dad,â Paul (Mark Ruffalo), an unexpected new chapter begins for everyone as family ties are defined, re-defined and then re-re-defined. Fall in love with the big-hearted comedy that critics are calling âone of the best films of the year!â
(Michael Phillips, At the Movies)If the relationships that anchor Lisa Cholodenko's warmly funny films appear unconventional, their problems--t! heir pleasures--remain universal. In The Kids Are All Right! (no relation to the Who documentary), she takes on a suburban Los Angeles family with two teens, Joni (Alice in Wonderland's Mia Wasikowska) and the unfortunately named Laser (Josh Hutcherson, The Bridge to Terabithia), and two mothers, Nic (Annette Bening) and Jules (an atypically relaxed Julianne Moore), who conceived via artificial insemination. Now that she's heading off to college, Laser urges 18-year-old Joni to seek out their birth father, who lives in the area (her name comes from folksinger Mitchell). Though she hits it off with Paul (Mark Ruffalo, effortlessly charming), a motorcycle-riding restaurant owner, Laser has his doubts (troublingly, the 15-year-old's best friend uses "faggot" as an all-purpose epithet). After they introduce Paul to their parents, allegiances start to shift. While Nic, a doctor, serves as breadwinner (and disciplinarian), Jules, a homemaker-turned-landscape artist, provides the nurturing. Paul, on the other hand, lives free from! attachments, inciting both curiosity and suspicion. Furthermore, Jules finds him strangely irresistible, which only expands the fissures in her loving, yet unstable union. As with Laurel Canyon, Cholodenko doesn't just create fully rounded characters, but entire communities. In the end, Kids isn't about children vs. adults as much as the family unit vs. the singular outsider. Though the story concludes on a relatively happy note, it's clear where her allegiances lie. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Questions for Julianne Moore
Question: Freckleface Strawberry and the Dodgeball Bully is your second picture book. How does it feel to be a published author?
Julianne More: It feels wonderful to be a published author. I consider myself first and foremost a reader-- I grew u! p loving books more than anything else in my life. I moved a lot, and books were my most steady companions and greatest influence. As a result, I feel pleased and honored to be included in a world that is so meaningful to me.
Question: In your first book, Freckleface Strawberry learned to accept and celebrate her freckles; in your new book, she meets a bully on the playground and learns how to confront him and remain true to herself at the same time. Why do you feel these are important topics to address?
Julianne More: It was important to me that I create a character who was very much a real child, with a real childâs fears and feelings and sense of herself as an individual in the world. So it is not so much that I see Freckleface Strawberry as a character who is dealing with important "issues," I see her as dealin! g with the very real problem of defining herself in relation ! to the r est of the world--which, of course, is what we all do as we grow up!
Question: You have a wonderful way of infusing your text with humor. Was that intentional?
Julianne More: Gosh, I hope it is funny. I think life is funny, and children are hysterical. I love how literal they are, and how imaginative. Just the idea that children believe that they can make themselves disappear or become a scary monster or convince someone that they are a grown-up when they are clearly just four years old--all of that is so funny to me. I donât want to be unfair to children about the seriousness of their experience, but sometimes it is the distance from the story that makes it funny. Events that feel tragic can take on a comic cast with some distance--even for a child.
Question: What inspired you to create the character Freckleface Strawberry?
Julianne More: Freckleface Strawberry was a childhood nickname of mine. It was ! a name based on my copious amounts of freckles and long red hair. I found the name tragic and humiliating at the time--but with some distance (see above) it has become wildly amusing. So really these stories are based on my own childhood experiences and a sense of being at the center of my own drama--with a little of my kids' drama thrown in!
Question: What was your favorite thing to do when you were Freckleface's age?
Julianne More: When I was seven, all I wanted to do was ride my bike. It was a purple Huffy, with a banana seat and butterfly handlebars. I rode it everywhere. That, and read.
Question: You have two young children. What role do books and reading play in their lives?
Julianne More: My children have always been read to, and now my older child reads on his own as well. The stories they love reflect so much about them--my son loves books about sports and funny mystery books; my daughter loves a ! story where a child has a problem and then solves it!
!Qu estion: Were you an avid reader as a child? What's your first reading memory?
Julianne More: I loved to read as a child. We moved a lot and reading was something I could always take with me. The first sentence I ever read was in a kid's science book that I read with my mother, and the sentence was, "Mother, Mother," said Bob, "I see a robin."
Question: What writers have influenced you?
Julianne More: In terms of childrenâs books, I love William Steig, Mo Willems, Kevin Henkes, Laura Ingalls Wilder, and Louisa May Alcott--they write books that donât condescend to the child and that acknowledge their sense of humor. There really are so many great writers--Maurice Sendak, Theodor Geisel, Margaret Wise Brown, and on and on and on...
Question: How has the process of writing for young reader! s differed from how you prepare for a film role? What are the similarities?
Julianne More: I found that in writing the book, it was very important for me to locate the voice of the character--not unlike the way I work as an actor--and once I found the voice, it was easier for me to write it.
Question: What did you enjoy the most about the process of creating a picture book? The least?
Julianne More: I think I liked coming up with the character the best, and so far I havenât disliked anything--itâs all been a lot of fun.
Question: What is your motto?
Julianne More: Perseverance is more important than you think!
Question: Whatâs your favorite kind of pie?
Julianne More: My favorite kind of pie is lemon meringue--or cherry--I canât decide.
