From Saigoneer:
“20th August @ 8pm – Saigon Outcast
Maps to the Stars (USA 2014)
Julianne Moore, Mia Wasikokowska and Robert Pattinson lead a stellar cast in the latest film by David Cronenberg.
Hollywood’s obsession with itself is well-documented, just look at how Birdman was received within the industry last year or, more recently, the fact that a group of actors voted Tootsie (a film centred on the struggles of working actors and female actresses in New York) as the greatest film ever made.
Since we are talking about Cronenberg (who can hardly be labeled a “Hollywood filmmaker†to begin with), we might just as well forget all the pictures surrounding this topic: Maps to the Stars is as bleak, satirical and unsympathetic as one would expect from this Canadian helmer.
An aging actress, her successful teen-movie star son, her personal assistant and a limo driver/unemployed actor (played respectively by Moore, Evan Bird, Wasikowska and Pattison) serve as vessels to enter the scary world of showbiz and the idiosyncrasies of celebrities.”
