When she came in, she was Lee and she talked like Lee and she got all the jokes. It was like she took it right out of my head and she made me realize that i had actually written it better than i thought i had. I have never quite had that experience before in a casting session and she just as perfectly wonderful in the movie. - Quentin Tarantino
As you may of noticed, i added some captures of the clips of Stop/Eject to the gallery. Also i added some behind the scenes shots of Mary on-set. Mary wrote to Liesl at MaryEWinstead.com about the project.
“I just wanted to give you some info about this short so that you can clarify to fans who may think this was something I took as a job. I actually produced it with Riley who wrote and directed. Everyone worked for free and we shot in on the weekends during the writer’s strike. Nothing fancy, just a fun project and a really cool way for me to experience being on both sides of the camera. The whole short is 25 minutes long. We’re currently working on post sound and music and we hope to show it at festivals.”
Finally, some Mary news! She has been working on a small project called Stop/Eject which is a short film, co-written by Riley Stearns (aka Mary’s boyfriend). The film centers around a missing VHS tape and the problems it causes for a pair of memory archivists. It looks really interesting and it’s great to see Mary acting again. The film also stars Ryan Merriman, a close friend and Final Destination 3 co-star to Mary. Here are a few clips that have been put together. Also, new updates with the site … there will be a total makeover coming soon. I want to go over most files and update it before Make it Happen promotion begins. Also the gallery is going to be moved and updated and finally, there will be a brand new streaming video network all on Mary. This will be coming up in the next few months.
Disappointed by the DVD treatment of the one-two punch that was called Grindhouse? A bit sore that the faux trailers by Edgar Wright, Rob Zombie and Eli Roth were nixed? Quit your moping and set your Tivo.
Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez’s homage to exploitation B-movie thrillers will play on Starz Monday, March 31 at 9:00 p.m. It is then that Grindhouse will play in its entirety - trailers, rough cuts, missing scenes and all. The way it was shown in the theaters.
Over three hours, the two feature-length films, turned into a double-bill, complete with fake trailers, missing scenes and bad film stock will be shown in its entirety, the way it was originally screened in movie theaters.
I’ve updated the video gallery today! I’ve added the videos of Mary in the special features of Death Proof! They are great, especially the one dedicated to Quentin’s editor, Sally Menke. I will add clips of Mary from the film very soon!
