More Sundance News:

De Niro at Push Premiere, Gabourey Praises Mariah

Robert De Niro surprised reporters by turning up at the premiere of new Mariah Carey movie Push at the Sundance film festival.

 

Push lead actress, newcomer Gabourey Sidibe tells reporters: "Mariah is really good in this movie. Both Mariah and Mo'Nique are wonderful, so it was awesome for me to work with them. I learned a lot from Mariah."

 

Mariah glams up after filming Push

Mariah arrived on the red carpet to pose for photos with hubby Nick Cannon - who is also promoting a film at the festival - before chatting briefly to reporters about her role in Push.

 

She told them "we don't do glamour" on the sets of Push director Lee Daniels. "The thing that I have to thank him for is allowing me to remove so many, just, layers of persona and all that kind of stuff, and to dig deep within myself as an actress and really be able to explore this character, 'cause the material is so great that I'm just privileged to be part of it."

 

When asked how it felt to both have films at Sundance together, Nick - who appears in The Killing Room with Chloe Sevigny - said: "It's an amazing thing, I mean, to be able to share this with your wife, to see her do such a phenomenal job with such a great piece of art - you know what I mean."

Push Gets Standing Ovation at Sundance Premiere

A standing ovation greeted Lee Daniels' "Push: Based on the novel by Sapphire" last night at the Racquet Club, even as insiders worried that a delayed screening of Antoine Fuqua's "Brooklyn's Finest" over at the Eccles held up some buyers. Buoyed by positive reaction after a test screening in Harlem earlier this week, Lee Daniels seemed anxiously optimistic while chatting casually with indieWIRE prior to the screening.

 

After the showing, he was showered by well-wishers, some of whom posed for photos with Mo'Nique and Mariah Carey. Daniels also cast Lenny Kravitz in a key role. "If you are gonna tell a bold story, go all the way, be bold," Daniels said on Friday night.

 

Snapshot Review

by Eric Kohn, indieWIRE

"Push: Based on the novel by Sapphire" is a movie of many textures, each one illuminating the emotionally gripping narrative at its core. Lee Daniels directs with bold strokes that could go wrong at any moment, but generally serve to illuminate a troubled life and the justified desire to escape it. The story of a troubled Harlem teen named Precious (Gabourey Sidibe) impregnated by her absent father, "Push" progresses with a steadily engaging series of starts and stops in the frayed world of its talented star. While fending off her dysfunctional mother (Monique, in a stunningly psychotic turn), Precious gradually learns to surpass her aimless fantasies and come to grips with the troubles at hand. Using lavishly photographed sequences, Daniels contrasts Precious's daily woes with the happier existence inside her head, but these moments gradually give way to the protagonist's fulfillment of her actual goals.

 

Moved to an alternative school to meet her special needs, Precious learns from more caring adults (including Mariah Carey as a trenchant social worker) about her obvious potential to mature. A spunky character with an increasing ability to editorialize about her new environment ("they talk like TV channels I don't watch," she says of her newfound mentors), Precious makes the ideal heroine of modern times. "Push" does not function exclusively as a story of race, but as a universal depiction of real world struggle. The only question is whether distributors can push themselves to get it out there.

I love both. My favorite songs of the Music Box sessions:

 

1. Anytime you need a friend

2. Without you

3. Dreamlover/Hero/Never forget you/Now that I know/I've been thinking about you/Everything fades away

4. Music Box/Do you think of me

 

In my opinion the 'bonus' tracks should have been:

5. Just to hold you once again

6. All I've ever wanted

I would have had JTHYOA with Heroé as bonus tracks.

All I've Ever Wanted is imo the best track off Music Box. she sang it in a very sincere way. The vocals were topnotch. Just Be Good To Me would have been a great bonus track too. Now That I Know and I've Been Thinking About You are nice, but they're too loud for me.

 

oh and btw Ray, i think her last real uptempo song was All My Life and I Didn't Mean to Turn You On, not too long ago (from Glitter, 2001).

I've never really liked "Just be good to me".

 

And yes, of course All My Life and Didn't Mean To Turn You On were up-tempo songs as well. I forgot to count them as I don't like them that much, while I usually LOVE her up-tempo tracks like: Someday, Prisoner, Emotions, Make it happen, Now that I know, Lovin' u long time, etc.

SWIFT WINS RACE AGAIN: Country ingénue Taylor Swift will once more top the HITS Album Sales chart next week, with sales landing in the 60-65k range, which will still top the previous low of 59k set by the Dreamgirls soundtrack in 2007. It will mark the sixth straight week she’s been #1 on our holiday-interrupted tally. The only two releases of note this week are Mariah Carey's Ballads, a best-of on Sony Legacy and Frank Sinatra's Seduction: Sinatra Sings of Love on WMG’s Rhino label, each looking at about 20k, which would place them solidly in the Top 20, based on last week’s results. Sales yesterday may not reflect an totally accurate picture for the week as many people stayed home to watch the inauguration, but the market was down 6% vs. last week, down 15% vs. same week last year and now down 11% year to date. Get to work, Obama! (1/21p)

I LOVE "You need me" too. Such a great song!

 

As for taking chances: Her biggest was "Butterfly" as it's the first album with rappers. She lost a lot of fans because of this album. And talking about taking chances... Just think of "Glitter" or her new movie "Push"!

the hero was good, even when she sounds bad she doesn't lips the song with a oldest pre-record like someone else :whistling:

not hating, but i really do believe that was a partly lipped performance. i love the overall performance, but for some reason, there's something about the song telling me it's not 100% live. especially the bridge part.

I loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great performance of "Hero" and wow, she looked stunning!
