This is rather intriguing, not just to see Kate Winslet’s first screen test for the role of Rose in Titanic, but also to see who’s playing opposite her, suggesting Leo DiCaprio wasn’t the only possiblity to play Jack. Winslet sounds more American than she does in the final movie and it appears to be a slightly earlier version of the script, but her Jack here is Jeremy Sisto, who at the time was coming off his success in Clueless. How different things might have been for him if he’d played Jack in the final film. Titanic is now out on Blu-ray in both 2D and 3D.

Viggo Mortensen has long proved he’s more interested in an acting challenge than mainstream success, he’s certainly got that with Everybody Has A Plan, as he plays twins and has to speak Spanish. The movie tells the story of Agustín (Mortensen), a man desperate to abandon what for him has become, after years of living in Buenos Aires, a very frustrating existence. After the death of his twin brother, Pedro, Agustín decides to start a new life, adopting the identity of his brother and returning to the mysterious region of the Delta, in the Tigre, where they lived when they were boys. However, shortly after his return, Agustín finds himself unwillingly involved in the dangerous criminal world that was a part of his brother’s life.

The full trailer for Lincoln will hit the net on Thursday, but before then we get a tease and an epic tone in this brief look at the movie. Daniel Day Lewis certainly look very Lincoln-y as we hear a few lines from the Gettysberg address. The movie concentrates of the final years of Lincoln’s life, around the time of the Civil War and his efforts to ensure that once the conflict ended, slaves would remain free. The films currently due for UK release on January 25th.

Quartet seems to be the title of the moment, as that’s the name of Dustin Hoffman’s directorial debut, and there’s also A Late Quartet, which has just debuted its first trailer. The film follows four members of a world-renowned string quartet who struggle to stay together in the face of death, competing egos and insuppressible lust. Christopher Walken is a man dealing with a Parkinson’s diagnosis, Philip Seymour Hoffman wants to move forward with his career, while Imogen Poots has issues with her mother (Catherine Keener).

Derek Cianfrance’s The Place Beyond The Pines debuted at TIFF the other day to a response that varied from the slightly underwhelmed to the utterly rapturous. Now a couple of clips have arrived, to give us our first taste of the movie. In the film, Luke (Ryan Gosling) is a professional motorcycle rider who turns to bank robberies to support his newborn son. But when he crosses paths with a rookie police officer (Bradley Cooper), their violent confrontation spirals into a tense generational feud. It should be out early next year.

Billy Crystal and Bette Midler may not be the box office names they once were, but it’s always god to see them on screen, and now they’ve teamed up for Parental Guidance, based on an idea from Crystal. Here’s the synopsis: ‘Old school grandfather Artie (Crystal), who is accustomed to calling the shots, meets his match when he and his eager-to-please wife Diane (Midler) agree to babysit their three grandkids when their type-A helicopter parents go away for work. But when 21st century problems collide with Artie and Diane’s old school methods of tough rules, lots of love and old-fashioned games, it’s learning to bend – and not holding your ground – that binds a family together.’ It’s currently due for release on December 28th, 2012.
