http://www.nine-movie.com/#/home-page
NINE will have a limited release on December 18th in New York and Los
Angeles and will then go on wide release on December 25th.
The big screen adaptation of NINE THE MUSICAL stars Daniel Day-Lewis,
Penelope Cruz and Nicole Kidman. The all-star cast is directed by Rob
Marshall, who also helmed critically-acclaimed 2002 musical Chicago -
which garnered six Academy Awards, including a Best Supporting Actress
nod for Catherine Zeta-Jones. Daniel Day-Lewis replaced the previously
attached Javier Bardem in the leading role of Guido Contini, Bardem
left the project citing exhaustion. Marion Cotillard, Kate Hudson,
Stacy "Fergie" Ferguson, Sophia Loren and Judi Dench star in the film
as well. Nine is a musical with a book by Arthur Kopit and music and
lyrics by Maury Yeston and is based off of Fredrico Fellini's movie 8
1/2. The play tells the story of a highly stressed director living in
VenIce Trying to juggle all of the women in his life.
The Broadway production of Nine, directed by Tommy Tune and
choreographed by Thommie Walsh, opened on May 9, 1982 at the 46th
Street Theatre, where it ran for 729 performances. The cast included
Raúl Juliá as Guido, Karen Akers as Luisa, Liliane Montevecchi as
Liliane, Anita Morris as Carla, Shelly Burch as Claudia, and Taina Elg
as Guido's mother. Replacements later in the run included Bert Convy
and Sergio Franchi as Guido, Maureen McGovern as Luisa, and Priscilla
Lopez as Liliane. The musical won five Tony Awards, including best
musical. The first revival of the 1982 Tony Award-winning musical hit
Broadway in 2003 led by Antonio Banderas-who made his Broadway debut
in the role of Guido. Laura Benanti, Jane Krakowski,Mary Stuart
Masterson, and Chita Rivera rounded out the original revival cast.
Nine revolves around one central character, Guido Contini a film
director in the Fellini mold. He is contracted to write and direct a
film, but is unable to come up with a suitable plot. After recent box
office failures, he finds himself drifting towards a nervous
breakdown. Guido finds himself examining his past flawed relationships
with the many women who have come through his life and the struggle to
act his mature age of 40--as opposed to nine.
