Alone with Her Movie Review from Horror-Movies.ca
The entire film is told through Dougs cameras except for maybe a handful of shots. This makes the film much more personal than any film I have ever seen.

One more review can be found on Wbai.org. They think that “Alone With Her” is by far one of the creepiest films of 2007 thus far. [...] Forget what you know, Alone With Her breaks all the stereotypes. It’s a psychological thriller that will have you thinking twice about who could be watching you, and just how vulnerable we really are. If you like thrillers this is a must see.”

Alone With Her: Voyeuristic Probe Into Pathology Of Stalking from Wbai.org
“Hanks – yes that’s right folks, the son of Tom Hanks – who normally plays wholesome characters, shows he has the chops and talent to make you believe just about anything. He is wicked to the core.”

The Great Buck Howard – Set Visit

On January 21, 2007 a story about a set visit has been published on Calendarlive.com. In the text you can find lots of information about “The Great Buck Howard” with John Malkovich and Colin Hanks. The movie is about Buck Howard (Malkovich), a has-been magician, and Troy, his young new assistant (Hanks), as they wander the country and rekindle the ashes of his career. In this project Tom Hanks plays his disapproving father.

They write that Colin took the part of Troy not because he wanted to play an assistant or a guy who wants to be a writer but because he loved the story. That his dad will play his film dad is just the cherry on the cake — “I think he wants to be captured on film being displeased with his oldest son,” Hanks says. “But when an actor like that wants to be in your film, you don’t say no, even if he is your father.”

He loved the story because it is a sweet, sincere movie about a young man who learns to appreciate the work it takes to just keep on living. “There is a noble aspect to Buck,” says Hanks. “He may take himself too seriously and may expect things to go a certain way. But he just can’t not do it. And Troy realizes the value of that.”

Read the text in full: A has-been tale, an A-list cast. On the right a behind the scenes picture has been added.
