Published on: July 02, 2009
Welcome to another episode of The Behind The Scenes Show with Eric Fell and Shaun Stewart. This Episode we take a look at 'My Sister's Keeper' , ' The Hurt Locker' and 'Cheril'. Enjoy!
This movie is based on the book "My Sister's Keeper" by Jodi Piccoult. This is from the back of the book: "Anna (Abigail Breslin) is not sick, but she might as well be. By age thirteen, she has undergone countless surgeries, transfusions, and shots so that her older sister Kate (Sofia Vassilieva) can somehow fight leukemia that has plagued her since childhood. The product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Kate-a life role that she has never challenged . . . until now. Like most teenagers, Anna is beginning to question who she truly is. But unlike most teenagers, she has always been defined in terms of her sister-and so Anna makes a decision that for most would be unthinkable, a decision that will tear her family apart and have perhaps fatal consequences for her sister she loves. 
THE HURT LOCKER is an intense portrayal of elite soldiers who have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world: disarming bombs in the heat of combat. When a new sergeant, James (Jeremy Renner), takes over a highly trained bomb disposal team amidst violent conflict, he surprises his two subordinates, Sanborn and Eldridge (Anthony Mackie and Brian Geraghty), by recklessly plunging them into a deadly game of urban combat. James behaves as if he’s indifferent to death. As the men struggle to control their wild new leader, the city explodes into chaos, and James’ true character reveals itself in a way that will change each man forever. . .
It is turn of the century in Paris and a scandalous romp is underfoot. In this seductive and sensational tale, Michelle Pfeiffer stars as a ravishing Parisian courtesan who takes a naïve young man half her age – rising British star Rupert Friend -- into her boudoir to teach him a thing or two about women. But of course, he learns all too well and turns out to be her perfect match. He doesn’t want to grow up and she doesn’t want to grow old and together they defy all of society’s rules. Their affair is pure pleasure – as they trade light-hearted romantic barbs and indulge in their delicious, upside-down chemistry -- until they do the one thing that will make an outrage of it all, most significantly to themselves: fall in love. And gradually they each come to see there will be weighty consequences of this unusual affair.
