NEWS: This Week's Fashion Frump: Julia Stiles
Julia Stiles showed up to a benefit screening of "Quantum of Solace" in New York City on Tuesday wearing a shapeless calf-length shift dress with black tights.

Julia's posture says what we're thinking, "Why bother?" Just a little bit of make-up and perhaps a swept back hairstyle would have helped a little, but not enough to make this outfit look sexy.

PROJECTS: 10 Things I Hate About You, Gospel Hill
10 Things I Hate About You Coming To TV

The movie 10 Things I Hate About You is being turned into a TV show. ABC has picked up the half-hour pilot based on the film of the same name that starred Julia Stiles. It’s been written and exec produced by Carter Covington and revolves around two sisters -- a strong-willed feminist and a social butterfly -- facing the challenges of starting out in a new high school.

Ruby And The Rockits is also coming to the network, which is a comedy about a former teen idol whose quiet life is disrupted when his brother and former bandmate shows up with a newfound teenage daughter.

The ABC's executive vice president, original series programming & development, Kate Juergens, stated, "We're excited about these pilots and feel they're perfect additions to our existing slate of programs." She added, "These shows are headed by talented teams who clearly possess authentic voices which we believe will resonate with our millennial viewers."

The HIFF Premieres "Gospel Hill" Directed By Giancarlo Esposito

"Gospel Hill" a spotlight film being premiered during the HIFF, stars Danny Glover, Angela Bassett, Samuel L. Jackson, Taylor Kitsch, Julia Stiles, and RZA. The first screening was held Thursday, Oct. 16, at the UA Theatre in East Hampton, and a second screening was held on Saturday, Oct. 18, at 9 p.m. in Southampton.

Directed by Giancarlo Esposito, with screenplay by Jeff Stacy, Jeffrey Pratt Gordon and Terrell Tannen, the 98-minute film concerns the struggling and long-brewing racial tensions of a small Southern town as a result of an unsolved 40-year-old murder. Glover plays John Malcolm, the son of an assassinated civil rights leader (Sam Jackson), who is being honored by the town 40 years after his still unsolved murder.

Concurrently with the upcoming event, Glover is withdrawn and distant from his wife (Angela Bassett) who is a teacher and community activist who attempts to engage her husband's assistance to prevent developers from "invading" Gospel Hill in hopes of turning it into a golf course. The developers are aided by the local doctor (Giancarlo Esposito). Julia Stiles plays an idealistic school teacher who begins to fall for the son of the retired local bigoted sheriff who never solved the murder.

The past and present realities of life in the South (North Carolina) are all connected together among this cast as they individually struggle with making the right choices and decisions to atone for the past and hopefully amend the future. The personal relationships between a husband and wife, a father and his sons, a former law officer and an disabled war veteran, a doctor and his patients, and a community with its race and economic woes are all explored, but not necessarily resolved in this thoughtful film. The film is Esposito's first film in the HIFF.

Speaking with Esposito prior to the screening, this well-known actor and director expressed, "This film has been a labor of love for me. It took me four years to make, and it was completed in 2007. I fell in love with the script, and I worked with the screenwriters, and acted as producer as well to bring this personally compelling and timely film to the screen." Commenting on the dual roles he assumes in "Gospel Hill" as both director and actor, Esposito relayed, "As an actor I am comfortable with the egos of actors, and as a director I was thrilled with the script. I was fortunate enough to work with a stellar cast of actors." Having acted with both Samuel L. Jackson and Nia Long (who plays his wife) in prior films, Esposito also stated that "There is no comparison between actors and directors. I've been an actor for 43 years, and actors are narcissistic, however, as a director I can understand that, and it allows me to draw on that point of view."

Esposito's "Gospel Hill" once again illuminates how the past can always follow us into the future, and that the actions of one person can dramatically affect the lives of many.

PROJECTS: Julia Stiles heading to Broadway in Oleanna
Bourne Supremacy actress Julia Stiles will soon be making her Broadway debut with the two-character play 'Oleanna'. The American stage and screen actress first performed David Mamet's play opposite Aaron Eckhart on London's West End stage in 2004.

Stiles shall lead the role of Carol in the power struggle between a university professor and one of his female students who accuses him of sexual harassment. "I'm coming to Broadway. I'm so excited... It's where I started," the Daily Express quoted the actress as telling the New York Post.

"I did shows off-Broadway. I did plays at La Mama. And I'm now going to do David Mamet's Oleanna. The one project I most want to do. By the end of the play pretty much everyone hates me. But I only know this will be my first time on Broadway. It's a dream of mine," she added.

PROJECTS: Gospel Hill to be screened at Democratic National Convention
In the town of Julia, a town set in the South, the residents of the neighborhood of Gospel Hill are being forced out of their homes to make way for a multimillion-dollar development.

Gospel Hill, a film by Giancarlo Esposito, and starring Giancarlo Esposito, Danny Glover, Angela Bassett, Julia Stiles, Taylor Kitsch, Samuel L. Jackson, Nia Long and the Rza to be screened at the Democratic National Convention. A-List stars to be in attendance, including key political figures at the red carpet screening Sunday, August 24th.

Quiet Hand Productions is thrilled to announce the screening of Gospel Hill at the Democratic National Convention. The film will enjoy two screenings on Sunday evening at 7:30 and 10:00 pm at the Neighborhood Flix Cinema and Cafe -- 2510 East Colfax Avenue, Denver, Colo. Angela Bassett, Danny Glover, the Rza, Taylor Kitsch, Annette Bening, Warren Beatty and several other celebrities will be in attendance for the screening.

About Gospel Hill:
In the town of Julia, a town set in the South, the residents of the neighborhood of Gospel Hill are being forced out of their homes to make way for a multimillion-dollar development. Race relations are strained just as they were thirty years ago when Peter Malcolm (Samuel Jackson), a black civil rights activist, was assassinated. Dr. Ron Palmer (Giancarlo Esposito), an influential black community leader who runs the emergency clinic in Gospel Hill, is supporting the development through the prism of his own vision of success, while simultaneously being responsible for driving people from their homes they have lived in for generations. Peter Malcolm's brother, John Malcolm (Danny Glover), who withdrew from the community and the fight for civil rights after his brother's assassination, is haunted by the pain of what happened, and has given up the fight.

Meanwhile, the towns bigoted, ex-sheriff, who was responsible for letting the investigation of Peter's murder dissipate with no one charged, is facing his own mortality and his own choices and hatreds to reflect on. Sarah Malcolm (Angela Bassett), Johns wife, takes it upon herself to battle Dr. Palmer and reveal his profiteering to the whole town, exposing him for the greedy man he has become.

These characters lives intertwine to create a gripping, revealing and dramatic tale touching on issues or race, imminent domain, and the power of the human spirit to overcome the pain and hatred of division.

NEWS: JULIA STILES - STILES SPLITS FROM BOYFRIEND
THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM star JULIA STILES has split from her artist boyfriend JONATHAN KRAMER. The pair, who dated for more than two years, are citing "irreconcilable differences" for the break-up.

And the actress doesn't seem to be dealing with it too well, after she reportedly lashed out at fans in New York who she thought were taking snaps of her.
According to New York gossip column PageSix, Stiles mistakenly assumed a group of diners were taking photographs of her, and stormed out, saying, "Bye, guys - glad you got your picture!"

However, Stiles' representative denies the actress was aggressive: "Julia was trying to get out of the way of the picture. She wasn't being sarcastic."
