1.57 min. | 4.83 user rating		 alltimetv.net Inkheart (film) Inkheart is an upcoming 2009 fantasy film, directed by Iain Softley. It is based on the 2003 German novel of the same name by Cornelia Funke. The film was first slated for release on March 19, 2008, but has been pushed back to January 9, 2009, partially because of New Line's marketing worries in connection with now-concluded 20072008 Writers Guild of America strike. It will now be released on January 30, 2009. Inkheart Production The author of the book on which the film was based, Cornelia Funke was quoted as saying that "we had our second screening (summer 2007), which went well, and I really loved the movie, but they are still changing things, especially at the end." As with the production of The Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian, the production progressed very slowly. The American release was originally slated for Christmas 2007, but then was changed to March 19, 2008. In addition, due to the writer's strike, the film was further pushed back and is now set to open January 30, 2009. Inkheart was filmed at Shepperton Studios near London, England and on location in 2006/2007. Inkheart Plot When Mo (Brendan Fraser) reads aloud from books, he has the ability to make the characters come out of the book, into real life. Mo discovered his power when his daughter Meggie (Eliza Bennett), was just a baby.

Ma il loro incredibile dono è anche decisamente rischioso, perchè ogni volta che danno vita ad uno dei personaggi dei libri che leggono, una persona reale scompare nelle sue pagine.. Durante una delle loro visite in un negozio di libri di seconda mano, Mo sente delle voci che non aveva più sentito da molti anni.

2.57 min. | 3.0 user rating		 I read the first Outlander book by Diana Gabaldon a year ago, and have thought that it was impossible to love anyone as much as I loved Jamie Fraser. I was wrong. Ever since Roger Wakefield/Mackenzie became a major character in Dragonfly, I was hooked. I finally got a good computer, so the quality on this should be much better than my other videos (thank God). This basically shows what Brianna and Roger's relationship as it progresses and he follows her through the stones and they finally reunite in Wilmington. The girl with Brianna at the end is supposed to be Lizzie. I know they look nothing alike, but it's the best I could do. True Blood only offers so many clips of Jessica with someone other than Bill, Hoyt or Sookie. Roger: Jim Sturgess Brianna: Deborah Ann Woll Music: Across the Universe from the Across the Universe soundtrack. And yes, Jim Sturgess is indeed a perfect Roger. Not only can he act, but he can sing.
