Michelle Trachtenberg Bonanza!
Current front-runner for best movie I've seen in 2005 is the documentary BORN INTO BROTHELS. Proof that art has the power to change the world. Thrilling, funny, and completely heartbreaking.
Could there be a movie any different from BORN INTO BROTHELS than Disney's new ICE PRINCESS?? I'm going to see it, too, because of the lovely Michelle Trachtenberg, who also stars in MYSTERIOUS SKIN. She's been doing an everest of promotion for Disney, and has mentioned MSKIN quite a bit. In fact, on this week's Moviefone.com site, there is an extended feature on Michelle (takes a little while to download, but it's worth it) that opens and closes with segments of the "drive-in" scene with her and Joseph Gordon-Levitt from Mysterious Skin, and also shows a bit of the more disturbing stuff with Brady Corbet and the little boys from the film. There's even a snippet in this film showing all of us at Sundance, posing away.
You can find this Michelle feature RIGHT HERE!! (This probably won't be on the web that long, so do it soon.)
No matter how you feel about Disney, go see ICE PRINCESS and support Michelle, because she's great. But before that, see BORN INTO BROTHELS. And then see it again.
