Quote from: M-Rocka on October 13, 2023, 11:24:03 AMI remember a rumor from the early 00s that Ghan wanted to portray Wanda Jean Allen, the first black woman to be executed in the state of Oklahoma in decades for murdering her girlfriend. I don't know how accurate that was.

That would've been dope. I really hope Bran starts consistently doing drama & horror. I think the big thing with horror is that she has to be careful not to get suckered into doing many sequels because I think about what happened with Neve Campbell.

The studio didn't want to meet her demands eventually & I believe that was tied to them feeling like Neve not having major roles outside of Scream meant she needs Scream.

I just hope for Bran to get everything she wants from acting before so much changes in her industry.

I definitely would love to see Ghan transition into more dramatic roles as well. Make people take notice of her undeniable craft.

I feel you on Neve. I love her! I remember reading somewhere how hesitant she was about accepting the role of Sidney Prescott in fear of being typecasted due to her being in The Craft, but the studio and the powers that be reassured her that the role was different from Bonnie and she'd be the main character and hero of the series.

She was pretty good in Wild Things. I wouldn't mind also seeing Bran in neo noir type of films too.

I felt bad for Neve back when reading how the studio lowballed her despite all her contributions to the Scream. I get it's a business but those studios & streamers really can get cutthroat.

I think Brandy can conquer horror if she does original IPs she could probably avoid the same thing that happened to Neve. Then branch out into other genres.

I recall hearing that it's best for an actor to secure "their thing" (i.e Meg Ryan - Romcoms, Tom - action, Viola - meaty roles, Vin - Fast & Furious) then that can help them later in their career. It was speculation that's why The Rock went back to Vin Diesel to do a non-FF 11/Hobbs & Shaw spinoff after 'Black Adam' didn't do well because 'Black Adam' was supposed to be his thing.

!!!!! We've seen Bran in comedy, drama, teen slasher/thriller, but the anticipation for a psychological horror film is pretty high in my eyes.

Don't even get me started on Black Adam, that movie was atrocious.  

A lot of times when A24 posts trailers & stuff for other movies there will be comments asking about 'The Front Room.' There have even been comments in non-English asking about it, so this could be a big one for Bran. So you're so right that the anticipation is high.

If she going forward can get into a strictly drama/horror/action bag that would be amazing for Bran. An Equalizer/action/villain type projects I could see her in. I get though she has to work her way up to getting offered roles like that.

'Black Adam' was supposed to be The Rock's 'Mission Impossible' 'Top Gun' 'Bad Boys' so a staple project. It probably was hard for him to swallow his pride & go back to Vin for a FNF spinoff.

I agree with ALL OF THIS!!!!!!

I am so excited about this new role for her. Hopefully she continues working with A24, especially after they swept the Oscars this past year. I got teary eyed when Brendan Fraser won for The Whale. I've never seen the film, just clips of it on YouTube and he deservingly won that Oscar. Ke Huy Quan and Michelle Yeo, especially Michelle. With her being the first Asian woman to win a leading role Oscar is huge. I'm praying that Bran gets that recognition she deserves when the Awards season approaches.

Do you ever watch the '31 Days of Oscars' on TCM? They air it annually around January - April showing classic films that were either nominated or won Oscars. I've DVR'd several movies that I was dying to see.

Yes I watch 31 Days of Oscars. I love it. I hope Bran decides to do some type of documentary & she does some BTS filming next year to chronicle this phase of her career. I can't wait to see her shine on the press run.

Her name on the poster  . I remember someone asked her a few years ago something like why she didn't do a lot of movies & she said something like "I'm not a movie girl." Now look at her now with the biggest role so far in her career. Bran will get something whether it be a few of the majors nominations/awards or several on the indie award circuit.   

I just watched the trailer for 'The Iron Claw' from A24 with the Zac Efron & Jeremy Allen White. The cinematography is always gorgeous with their productions.

I really love that with acting an actor can reach their peak at anytime in their career. It's really amazing seeing actors be able to get into their career highs at any age of their career. Michelle Yeoh said she used to get offered roles mainly earmarked for Asian actresses now she's getting roles that do have an ethnicity specification.

I love that! Yeah, I'm super obsessed with 31 Days of Oscars, I'm definitely turning into my parents. They used to watch TCM all the time and I'd always call them boring for watching films like Carmen Jones, Guess Who's Coming To Dinner, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, To Kill A Mockingbird, etc..and now look at me. Getting all excited when I see it on TV and I'm quick to DVR it.

They even aired the movie Last Summer (1969) which is a rare film that was rated X due to its graphic r*pe scene, but it was heavily edited. I watch the old Oscars clips on YouTube where Katharine Hepburn won her awards, but never attended them actual ceremony except once.

I saw a thumbnail for The Iron Claw; I haven't actually seen the trailer, but I heard positive things about.

During Brandy's 20th anniversary in the game, I believe it was Gladys Knight (correct me if I'm wrong) that said to Brandy the best is yet to come for her, and she's about to get so much recognition with The Front Room and I'm anticipating it.

To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my faves. I love old hollywood cinema especially the way they were shot. I think it was Gladys that said that about Bran. Everything is aligning for Bran. Her comments on when she posted the press release for The Front Room showed she really knows that's her big one.

!!!!!!!!!!!

OK so it looks like I have a classic cinema fanatic besides myself and possibly my bby Demetrius

My DVR list is at 84% because I have soooo many movies saved as well as shows that I haven't even got to watch yet. I thought that was Gladys that said that, I just wasn't sure. But I'm super excited for this movie and what doors are going to open for Ghan. I definitely want to see her in an action film playing some sort of femme fatale.

@M-Rocka @Summertime  Yes huge movie buff/ Cinephile here! My go-to genres are Film Noire, Whodunits, Melodramas, and a few documentaries. I have a large appreciation for actresses like Kate Hepburn, Bette Davis, and Barbare Stanwyck because I find females more interesting to watch on film.

How was Morning Glory? I have yet to see it, but I've seen The Lion In Winter, Guess Who's Coming To Dinner, and bits and pieces of On Golden Pond.

The ending on GWCTD always gets me because of Spencer's monologue basically telling Kate he loved her and her reaction was priceless.

I thought it was okay, not great! It didn't aged too well, but I liked the character she was playing even if it was a version of herself. A very natural performance for Katharine.

You make me wanna rewatch GWCTD it's a great film with strong performances everywhere! What a beautiful film?! For that monologue to be Spencer's final words on film sends chills down my spine. I do not think either them was acting in that moment, he was honoring his work wife before it was too late!

Yes, I have. A highly entertaining campy role for Bette, I loved this era for her she's always been over the top but she really lets loose in some of those last films like "The Nanny" and "The Anniversary".

"Old, Acquittance" and "Now, Voyager" are two of my favorite Bette performances. Both of those roles touched me deeply, I can watch them over and over and never get bored with them. I'm not a big fan of remakes but Brandy would rock "Now, Voyager".

Sooo the release date is less than a month away, and not even a trailer???

I think it's because it's a Christmas movie and right now is Halloween. So releasing a trailer now doesn't make sense to them. They will prolly wait till November 1.

I'll have to check that out along with Bringing Up Baby, The Philadelphia Story, and Woman of the Year. I saw The African Queen which was pretty good, but baby that GWCTD is one of my all time favorite films. I really thought they went off script at the final scene just due to that connection they had. I loved it. I loved how the camera panned over to Beah Richards and Katharine Houghton while Spencer was delivering his speech.
