Trick ‘R Treat Update
There is news floating around about Trick ‘R Treat getting a DVD and Blu-Ray release later this year, and even an updated trailer for the film. However, the writer and director of the film, Mike Dougherty, has said the news “isn’t accurate, and that there will be two announcements in the coming months. One in early June at the Fangoria Weekend of Horrors in NYC, and the other at Comic Con in late July.”
So like any “news” in regards to the film the past couple years (yes, years. sadly), I would take anything going around about a release with a grain of salt until the two announcements that Mike has said are coming since it is HIS film after all.
Freedom fighter: Anna Paquin balances HBO drama with inspirational ‘Courageous Heart’
Anna Paquin feels humbled by her latest project.
The actress stars as Nobel Peace Prize nominee Irena Sendler, who risked her life to rescue Jewish children during World War II, in “The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler,” tonight at 9 on WBZ (Ch. 4).
“She did an absolutely extraordinary thing, and she was so young and that’s intimidating,” Paquin said in a recent interview from Los Angeles.

Associated Press Interview For ‘Corageous Heart’
Anna In Jewish Journal
Anna Paquin was 11 when she won an Oscar for her performance in “The Piano” and in her mid-20s when she took the 2009 Golden Globe for her leading role in HBO’s vampire series, “True Blood,” but as she locked up her bicycle on a funky stretch of Abbot Kinney Boulevard the other day, she looked like just another young woman from the neighborhood. “Thanks for schlepping down to Venice,” she said as a greeting.
In person, the 26-year-old Paquin is as cheery and down-to-earth — and at the same time as direct and determined — as her “True Blood” character, a telepathic waitress with a penchant for short shorts and the 173-year-old vampire Bill played by Stephen Moyer, who is also Paquin’s real-life boyfriend. On this day, the New Zealand native wore bicycle shorts, her blonde hair was in a ponytail and her face had no sign of makeup. She was both accessible and upbeat, despite the fact that she had gotten off work from the second season of “True Blood” at 4 a.m., slept a few hours, then had to bike to the interview, since she does not know how to drive.
“No worries,” she said of her schedule. “The rest of the world doesn’t run on vampire hours just because I do.”
