"How many people are watching?" Uncork'd Entertainment has debuted an official trailer for an indie sci-fi prison escape thriller titled Division 19, the latest from filmmaker Suzie Halewood. The film premiered at the Fantasporto Film Festival in 2017, where it won the Critics' Award, and also played at the Boston Science Fiction Film Festival last year, where it won Best Director. Set in 2039, Division 19 takes place in a future where jails have been turned into online portals where the public gets to choose what prisoners eat, wear, watch and who they fight. The most successful is Panopticon TV, which is about to be rolled out to an entire town. When the most downloaded felon escapes, the authorities set a trap to reel him in. Linus Roache and Alison Doody star, with Jamie Draven, Lotte Verbeek, Clarke Peters, L. Scott Caldwell, and Will Rothhaar. Not surprisingly this looks instantly forgettable. Here's...

Division 19 , a dystopian science fiction thriller from writer-director Suzie Halewood ( Bigga Than Ben ), has started production in Detroit this week, Screen Daily reports. The cast includes Neve Campbell ( Scream ), Jamie Draven ( Billy Elliot ) and Clarke Peters ("The Wire"). Launched as a Kickstarter late last month , Division 19 is officially described as follows: Division 19 is set in a future where the burgeoning need for social control has led to mass-criminalization. With jails overflowing, the Central Control have brought in a data-warehousing specialist who has turned the jails into online portals allowing citizens to monitor felons and vote on what they eat, wear, read, watch and when they fight. By far the most popular and downloaded felon is...

tMF Talkback: Anatomy of a Good Actor - The 'case' between Orlando Bloom, Ben Barnes and Johnny Depp
What constitute good acting? What makes a good actor? Are there certain steps one must follow in order to become an actor or is it a gift or a natural talent and requires no formal training? These are the questions we'll try to answer - and before we begin, let me just say, I have been patiently waiting for an 'opportunity' like this, and I would like to thank one tMF viewer for the vigorous and insightful comments on 'good acting' and the case between Ben Barnes, Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp.

I find Ben Barnes in Easy Virtue to be quite good and I enjoyed the movie very much. But if you really want to see how he is as an actor, I suggest you go watch Bigga Than Ben. His work in The Chronicles of Narnia pales in comparison, and more often than not, he seems to be getting some negative press of late. In a previous article where we featured Barnes together with Jim Sturgess and Robert Pattinson, he's the one who got the least number of comments. But is he the most under-rated among the three? I guess he is and I think his next movie, Dorian Gray, might prove critics that he has what it takes...

No more does the "next Orlando Bloom" crown...
