Time To Put Away Childish Things: Is 2011 The Year Grown-Ups Started Buying Movie Tickets Again?
For some time now, the received wisdom has been that the kind of mid-budget, star-driven serious films that once dominated Hollywood were on their way out. Dan Jinks, the producer of "Milk," told Mark Harris at GQ a couple of months back that, "Everyone has cut back on not just 'Oscar-worthy' movies, but on dramas, period.

'The Social Network' & 'Exit Through the Gift Shop' Win Big At ACE Eddie Awards
Last night we tweeted some teasers from our gig on the ACE Eddie Awards Red Carpet, but there were a few things we left out. Held at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, the night was a fancy affair for sure, but also a celebration of an art, that in so many ways, is invisible. As Eddie winner for "Temple Grandin" Leo Trombetta said it, "[our job] is to make sure our work doesn't draw attention to itself," but last night was an event meant to shine a light on the men and women who sit in small dark rooms for long long hours shaping the films that we know and love. Many of the nominees are also up for the Oscars next week, and Eddie winners hav...
