MISCHA BARTON WILL SHOYNE YA BOOTS, GUV

08.12.09 Written by Vince Mancini

This is a clip from St. Trinian’s School for Girls, opening in select theaters October 2nd, in which Mischa Barton plays P.R. Guru J.J. French, “a PR consultant who sets out to coach the current students in the ways of creating and maintaining celebrity status.” Meanwhile, I could think while watching this was:

Gee, Pa, I cain’t see too good, is that the queen of England over tharrr?

UPDATE: Yeah, so apparently Mischa Barton was actually born in England and moved to the U.S. when she was five. But if that’s an English accent, I’m bob’s your uncle’s bobby lorrie lift, eh blokes?

KISS KISS BANG BANG BUELLER BUELLER

06.30.09 Written by Vince Mancini

The Assassination of a High School President is a kitschy little indie film that everyone seemed to love (though it should be noted that a couple of those quotes come from professional sycophants), a film noir-meets-John Hughes high school movie.  Whether it gets a release or goes straight to DVD is still up in the air depending on the distributor’s bankruptcy status.

Forget it, Jake. It’s…high school. With its noir roots, this stylish dark comedy pays homage to Roman Polanski’s CHINATOWN. Reece Thompson (ROCKET SCIENCE) stars as a school newspaper writer who uncovers a conspiracy that is rampant among the students and teachers. Mischa Barton (THE O.C.) plays the young femme fatale, while Bruce Willis is an unhinged principal. [RottenTomatoes]

Judging by the reviews they quote, I guess it’s supposed to be funny, but I wasn’t getting that from the trailer.  Plus, there’s a big (*RECORD SCRATCH*) at the 30-second mark, and record scratches are always a bad sign.  Movie trailers are like white people music in that regard.

ALSO: Just noticed this – is it just me, or is that the music from the Cialis commercial in the beginning of the trailer?

This headline would be a lot better if Walled In wasn’t just the name of some crappy movie.

MISCHA BARTON FINDS TATU, DURST

10.18.07 Written by Vince Mancini

I’m not sure Mischa Barton was ever famous enough to qualify for a durst moment, but if she was, this is surely it.  This clip comes from the official t.A.T.u blog (at least I think it’s official.  I don’t really have any idea – it’s in Russian), and it’s from the upcoming movie Finding t.A.T.u.  It’s a good thing someone’s finding them, because they’ve been off the radar for a few years.  But hey, everyone loves hot lesbians, right?

Two teenage girls, Janie who is American and Lana who is Russian, fall in love after meeting at a t.A.T.u concert and are swept into a dangerous world of obsession, drug abuse and murder.

And like many things from the former Eastern Bloc, this clip looks like it was made twenty years ago. Or it was edited by Borat.  Anyone else see the UFC where the Croatian guy’s (Cro Cop) walk-up music was "Wildboyz" by Duran Duran?  Amazing.  

Anyway, this movie poses an important question; if Mischa Barton makes out with chicks but no one’s around to see it…  Even so, I guess Mischa was better than their first choice for the role, Christie Brinkley, the beautiful America Swimsuit Illustrator model.
