First up Brian De Palma's "Passion". A remake of 2010's Love Crime...
Oooh, smouldering! Noomie Rapace and Rachel McAdams getting sh-exy with each other is enough to grab any red blooded males attention - and mine. Any picture De Palma is attached too is going to garner interest with his back catalogue (Scarface, Carrie, Untouchables) but for every hit there is a Black Dhalia, so will be interesting to see what the buzz is like first.
A film that should be met with less trepidation is Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master".
The director of classics such as Boogie Nights, Magnolia, and There Will be Blood should have every film fanatic frothing at the mouth - even if he hasn't quite broke the mainstream. Eh, can't please them all.
Early test audiences have generally been positive, but some have also been somewhat confused, so maybe this isn't the film that will grab everyone's attention - although I am sure he is not the kind of director who probably gives a crap and is probably more content with being seen as one of the greatest directors of his generation. If you are not familiar with his work, I would recommend you giving this a try or looking at some of he previous work.
