‘Crossing Over’ Trailer Arrives

“Crossing Over”, the drama movie that teams up Harrison Ford, Ashley Judd, Sean Penn and Ray Liotta, has welcomed its first trailer. Telling the stories of hopeful immigrants and the immigration enforcement officers, the trailer presents the problems faced by both the immigrants entering Los Angeles in search of better life and the officers working with them.

This Weinstein Company movie follows the struggles of different nationalities’ immigrants in achieving legal status in Los Angeles. Showing the reality the immigrants find when they try to create their own American dream, it deals with the border, document fraud, the asylum and green card process, work-site enforcement, naturalization, the office of counter terrorism and the clash of cultures.

“Crossing Over” comes from “Running Scared” director/writer Wayne Kramer, who is also an immigrant from South America himself. Apart from Harrison Ford, Ashley Judd, Sean Penn and Ray Liotta, it is also supported by Jim Sturgess, Alice Eve and Alice Braga among others. It will be released in U.S. theaters on December 3.

Alice Braga: the next Latina star

Latina actresses have never been hotter in Hollywood: Eva Mendes, Jennifer Lopez, Eva Longoria… and now Alice Braga

The chances are you will know Alice Braga’s beautiful face even if, as yet, her name doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue. In films such as City of God, I Am Legend and her latest, Blindness, with her raven-black hair, dark flashing eyes and flawless, honeyed complexion, she is compelling.

And she can act, too, often taking roles that others would be wary of. In Blindness she plays a call girl while another movie, Lower City, called for the kind of explicit sex scenes that would send most American actresses off to lie down in a darkened room before hitting the speed dial to their agent or therapist. Braga, on the other hand, relishes the challenge. “As a girl I’m shy, but once I’m in character, I don’t mind at all,” she says. “In Lower City I played a prostitute who falls in love with two best friends. She was a really powerful, strong character. I have to understand her, but I don’t have to judge her. As for nudity and myself, well, yes, I would be shy. I’m always covering myself up.”

At the moment, Alice (pronounced Ah-lee-say) Braga is able to flit between her native Brazil and California or even Cannes, where Blindness received its world premiere, with hardly anyone knowing who she is. “In Brazil, they’re far more interested in the guys from the soap operas,” she says in a voice that is low and husky, heavily accented and tinged, at times, with American inflections. “They go crazy for them. Absolutely nuts. But for me, I pretty much walk down the street and one or two people might say ‘hi’ but it’s not crazy.” Read the rest of this entry »
