RIP Natasha Richardson

Natasha Richardson's passing is pretty dreadful news. The daughter of Vanessa Redgrave and Tony Richardson, granddaughter of Sir Michael Redgrave and Rachel Kempson, niece of Lynn and Corin Redgrave, sister of Joely Richardson and wife of Liam Neeson, Natasha made memorable screen performances in Ken Russell's Gothic, Paul Schraeder's Patty Hearst, Volker Schlöndorff's The Handmaid's Tale and Schraeder's The Comfort of Strangers. Terrible.

How'd you get to be Happiness?

Oh boy! IndieWire posted an update on Todd Solondz's new film, which is apparently a follow-up to Happiness probably in the same way Palindromes was to Welcome to the Dollhouse. The official cast includes Charlotte Rampling, Allison Janney, Michael K. Williams (aka, everyone's favorite character on The Wire, Omar), Paul Reubens (who was the first actor attactched to the project), Shirley Henderson, Ciaran Hinds and, last and certainly least, Paris Hilton. The IMDb also lists Natasha Richardson in the cast. The film should hit one of the big festivals next year.
