THE BIZ INTERVIEW:		Rupert Wyatt - Director of The Gambler Rupert Wyatt is a familiar name to movie audiences – and Vancouver film industry types – as the director of the 2011 hit, Rise of the Planet of the Apes. This holiday season, he's returned to the director's chair for a markedly different film, The Gambler, which features an ensemble cast led by Mark Wahlberg, John Goodman, Jessica Lange, Michael Kenneth Williams, Alvin Ing, and Brie Larson. In advance of the film's opening on Christmas Day, Rupert Wyatt spoke to us about his creative approach, his style for working with actors, and his memories of filming in Vancouver.

MOVIE CONTEST:		*Selma* BizBooks.net is offering the chance to see the advance screening in Vancouver. Selma is the story of a movement. The film chronicles the tumultuous three-month period in 1965, when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. led a dangerous campaign to secure equal voting rights in the face of violent opposition. The epic march from Selma to Montgomery culminated in President Johnson (Tom Wilkinson) signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965, one of the most significant victories for the civil rights movement. Director Ava DuVernay's Selma tells the real story of how the revered leader and visionary Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (David Oyelowo) and his brothers and sisters in the movement prompted change that forever altered history. Also starring Cuba Gooding Jr., Alessandro Nivola, Giovanni Ribisi Common, Carmen Ejogo, Lorraine Toussaint, with Tim Roth and Oprah Winfrey as "Annie Lee Cooper." Enter to attend the advance screening!
