Über-Über-Bingo
What Christoph Waltz really wants to do is direct. No, seriously: The recent Oscar-winner confirmed this afternoon he'll be directing the German-language romantic comedy (!) Up and Away for Fox International Productions -- whose president says his business model doesn't generally include foreign distribution. You'll get to see it eventually, no doubt, to appraise Waltz's grasp of the story of a dating-game-show host who must "confront her callous feelings about romance, which place a greater emphasis on its marketability than emotion." Waltz explains: "When you make feelings a commodity, it's not a feeling anymore." Clearly he missed The Bachelor this season. But good luck, anyway! [LAT]
