Charlize Theron premieres new flick in Venice! August 29, 2008
South African beauty Charlize Theron is in Venice promoting her latest flick entitled, “The Burning Plain.” Theron stars as a troubled Oregon restaurant manager who is forced to confront her past when a mysterious visitor arrives from Mexico, and Kim Basinger, who appears in flashbacks as Sylvia’s mother at a pivotal moment in her young life.
This is director Guillermo Arriaga’s directorial debut but is no stranger to Holllywood. Arriaga was the screenwriter for “21 Grams” and “Babel.”
Theron, who also worked as a producer on the film, said there was a list of actresses to play the Gina role, but that they were thrilled to get Basinger.
“She’s amazing,” Theron said. “There is something about Kim. There’s a strength with her leftover vulnerability from her 20s that’s just unbelievably beautiful to watch. There are moments on the screen when she’s shaking, her entire body is shaking for real. You couldn’t act that.”

Earlier this month, comedic genius Ricky Gervais was on “Richard & Judy” to promote his latest flick, “Ghost Town.” Too bad Stepen Merchant is not going to be in this film, I love him!
Ricky confesses that he loved filming in New York so much that he bought a place there. With the dollar being so weak I’m sure he got an awesome deal.
