There's a saying in Hollywood that goes, when a woman turns 40 her career is over, when a man turns 40 it's just beginning. Sex appeal seems to be the driving force in most stars careers and the perception of most men is that they get sexier with age. Thanks to plastic surgery and changing attitudes women have a fighting chance of keeping their share of the sexy spotlight. But what about the men of Hollywood?

In a not-so-popular film called "I'll Do Anything" Nick Nolte plays an out of work actor who's sleeping with a casting director and lands an audition for a show she's working on. ...

Early last month Sony received word that Tom Cruise was dropping out of "Edwin A. Salt" due to similarities to Cruise's "Mission Impossible" franchise. Less than a week later, "Salt" had a new star, Angelina Jolie, and a greenlight. The script re-write began immediately in order to change the lead role to suit a female. The fastest turn around in Hollywood history had been pulled off thanks to a woman.

Power in Hollywood is defined by the ability to get a green light and bring in big bucks. And at the moment Angelina Jolie is powerful. She's also 33. Would things have been different i...

This weekend, there will be a movie released in the shadow of 21 and Run Fat Boy Run. It's been making its way across movie festivals for almost a year, picking up a couple of wins for "Best Here" and "Viewers Choice" there, and drawing some attention along the way. It's this way that filmmakers get their start, that actors get noticed, and that writers earn their stripes. It is a true independent film, normally for film school geeks with something to prove or French people. But now it's gained some theatrical distribution, and it may be outstretching its bounds.

Low budget, gritty and...

Over the years many classic movies have been remade. Don't get me wrong, some of those remakes have been really good. But the majority of the movies have been really bad.

These days, special effects are being taken to a whole new level, but that's not always a good thing. One of the main reasons these films are classics is because CGI was in the distant future. People loved the original "Godzilla" because you can see the man in the Godzilla costume crushing a cardboard box, also known as Tokyo.

There are few movies that have scared me, and one of those films was the 1978 movie "Ha...

Shawn Pyfrom is amazingly astute and mature for a man of his age. At only 21, he already has some fine ideas and ideals. Starpulse talked to him recently about his past work, his current role as the gay Andrew Van De Camp in "Desperate Housewives," his upcoming movie, and more.

We heard that you just turned 21 in August. Happy Birthday!

Thank you. It's very exciting to be 21.

Why?

I would be lying if I said that I hadn't had a few drinks before then, but every time you go to a place that features alcohol, like a bar, club, or restaurant, it's nice to be able to get a dri...

1) Ryan Gosling is easily one of the most underrated male actors in Hollywood today. The Golden Globe-nominated actor made his television debut at a very young age in "The Mickey Mouse Club" alongside future superstars J.C. Chasez and Justin Timberlake of *NSYNC, Christina Aguilera, and Britney Spears.

Gosling has appeared in several movies, including "Remember The Titans," "The Believer," Murder By Numbers," "Stay" and "The Notebook." Gosling didn't receive much recognition for his acting chops until he was nominated for his role as a drug addict teacher in the sleeper hit "Half Nels...

Often we don’t realize that our favorite TV shows began as vehicles on the big screen. Many of television’s best programs started that way. Then again, so did some of the worst.

In 1974, Ellen Burstyn starred in the Oscar awarded Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore. The movie was such a success that it was turned into “Alice,” complete with Vic Tayback as Mel. Unfortunately, it was Polly Holiday who made the sitcom a success. By the time she left the show and was replaced in 1980 by the original Flo, Diane Ladd, the damage had already been done. The series soon met its demise.

In 1992...

Russell Crowe found it hard to say goodbye to his co-stars after filming finished on movie 3:10 To Yuma - particularly his character's horse.

The star, who plays Ben Wade in the Western movie, admits he became particularly fond of the animal.

He says, "Doing these sort of movies with animals, you get close because it's an intense working relationship - 10 or 12 hours a day for months - so it's hard to say goodbye.

"There are some you have a deeper connection with immediately and you can work on that over time. I've found over the years that the more gentle you are with a h...

Actor Christian Bale was terrified about working with Russell Crowe on new movie 3:10 To Yuma because of his hell raising reputation. Bale met the Australian Oscar winner for the first time on the set of the western and was surprised to find Crowe was a "pleasure" to work with.

The Welsh actor says, "We'd never met before and whenever people asked me what I was doing next and I said I was going to be working with Russell, they looked at me and said 'You're going to be in for a rough ride with him.' (But) it was truly a pleasure."

Russell Crowe was left exasperated on the set of new western 3:10 To Yuma when director James Mangold tried to direct a herd of cattle, only for the cows to stampede in the wrong direction.

Crowe, who owns a cattle farm in Australia, watched as Mangold ignored his advice and the animals headed off into the wilderness not to return for two hours.

He says, "Working with the horses and the cattle weren't his (Mangold's) favorite moments. He had a cracker of a time at one point where Jim thought he was going to be able to stampede cattle and they would take a left turn just because ...

Movie star Christian Bale spent so much time sleeping between takes on the set of new western 3:10 To Yuma director James Mangold feared he was working with a narcoleptic. Bale eventually explained that was his method of preparing for the next scene.

Mangold says, "(Bale) would be in the corner somewhere, with his eyes closed and his head propped on a set piece. Sometimes he'd fall asleep. You'd almost think he's narcoleptic. But, in reality, I think it's a way he stays focused."

Peter Fonda insisted on having a water runner on the set of new western 3:10 To Yuma in a bid to make sure he and his castmates were properly hydrated.

The star admits the crew members went out of their way to make sure the cast was as comfortable as possible in the sweltering desert heat of the cowboy drama - but no one considered the ready supply of water on the set.

Fonda says, "We didn't have running water on the set, but we did have people running up with water. I insisted on that because it's the second most important fuel for the human body.

Christian Bale was bracing himself for an uncomfortable time on the set of new movie 3:10 To Yuma - because he'd been warned his Australian co-star Russell Crowe was difficult to work with.

But the 33-year-old was left surprised when Crowe turned out to be not just friendly, but the "easiest damn guy I've ever worked with."

He says, "Everyone said, 'Man, you're going to have a tough time.' And I thought, 'Bring it on! Come on, buddy, give me the best you got!' I tell ya, he was the easiest damn guy I've ever worked with. He was so simple. We got along so well, and he just apprecia...

Australian Russell Crowe jumped at the chance to star in new western 3:10 To Yuma, because he's an expert horse rider and wanted to spend as much time as possible in the saddle. The Oscar-winning actor, who appears alongside Christian Bale in the remake, found the shooting the movie a pleasure.

He says, "Probably since I was about nine or 10 years old I've ridden horses quite regularly, and I have a cattle farm. I have my own horses and stuff, so, for me, that was just a pleasure, being actually able to be on horseback for nine or 10 hours a day wasn't worrying me at all. You know, th...

Shooting on Russell Crowe's western remake 3:10 To Yuma came to a standstill when a freak storm blanketed the New Mexico set with snow.

Crowe is joined by Christian Bale and Ben Foster in the re-telling of the classic 1957 movie, but the plot's drought backdrop was put in jeopardy by freezing weather conditions during filming.

Speaking at Sunday's Comic-Con in San Diego, California, director James Mangold told how truckloads of dirt had to be brought in to cover the snow scene.

The cast was also issued with handwarmers to endure the biting cold.

Two investigations into an accident that caused severe injury to -- and required the subsequent euthanasia of -- a horse used in the filming of the Lionsgate movie western 3:10 to Yuma have been completed. The findings indicate that the accident likely was the result of two factors: a dual-training approach and instinctual responses for the horse, and the rider's newness to his particular mount.

During filming on Oct. 23, 2006, a quarter horse ran into a camera-carrying vehicle, severely injuring itself and its rider, Deryle Lujan, a professional rider/stuntman. Lujan was taken to the ...
