Madonna Gets Filthy

Filed under: Madonna > Film Flickers

madonna.jpg

Director Madonna is set to make her official debut!

Her Madgesty's film, Filth & Wisdom, is set to make its world premiere this February at the Berlin Film Festival, it has just been announced.

The movie, directed by M, stars Stephen Graham, Richard E. Grant, and Eugene Hutz.

The Queen of Pop is also working on a documentary about Malawi, though a premiere or release date has not yet been set for that.

Some more info on Filth & Wisdom for us Madonnaholics:

"Described as a comedy/drama/musical/romance, the story features a Russian immigrant, ballet school, lap dancing, cultural revolution, poetry, night club, punk rock band, book writer, dominatrix and gypsy.

The Gypsy punk band that appears in the film is portrayed by real-life Gypsy punk band, Gogol Bordello, who also contributed three songs to the film's soundtrack. The band's lead singer, Eugene Hütz, portrays the main character — a character with a philosophical attitude towards life. Madonna allowed additional dialogue written by Eugene himself to be included in the film. Additionally, Gogol Bordello performed "La Isla Bonita" with Madonna at the 2007 Live Earth benefit concert in London, United Kingdom."

    It's fun, and she talks about her first movie that was about to be released that she's in… naturally it didn't do well, but still. The interview is pre LIKE A VIRGIN… it's seriously a while ago… watch and love.

    I like Gwen Stefani too. She's like one of us. Real people have last names. I always find it so stupid and pretentious when celebs like Madonna, Beyonce and Mika drop their last names. Divas!!!!! It's like there's only supposed to be ONE of them on the whole planet. I like that Gwen never changed her name even after she married Gavin. She cares about her family and her roots.

    Gogol Bordello is sweet … I might just see this one. Anyone who listens to Gogol should also listen to Balkan Beat Box. And I'm just gonna throw Birdy Nam Nam out there although they're turn table b-boys. Balkan music!

    27

    I am a friend of Guy Ritchie and he is SUPER DUPER PISSED that Madonna is trying to break into his profession. Apparently, she did it on the sly and he didn't even know. So now he's all "how about I tour around in concert". This marriage is all over–they are staying together for Lourdes.

  28. UGH says – reply to this


    28

    Pamela Racine from Gogol Bordello is a horrible piece of shit and will soon be exposed for the fraud, fame seeking whore she is. Sleeping around any chance she gets to try to get ahead while dating someone in the business. She'd leave the band if a better one came along. Gypsy my ass!

    jesus madonna is so annoying. she should have just stopped while she was ahead. her latest music (from late 90's ON) is HORRIBLE. doesn't even sound like herself look at her. nice highlights? why can't women ever just embrace the aging process and be beautiful without having horrendous blonde highlights and tons of surgery? yeah, she is christened "queen of pop," but that implies that she is the one who STARTED it, and she started it 20 somewhat years ago.

    god, madonna is the perfect example of a somehow-still-famous-needs-to-retire-former IT girl.

    Re: david – Mostly true. Desperately Seeking Susan, Evita and A League of Their Own; did good critically and financially.

    Body of Evidence, Shanghai Surprise, Dangerous Game, Who's That Girl, The Next Best Thing were shit and flopped.

    "Described as a comedy/drama/musical/romance". What the fuck is left? Jesus Christ, this sounds like another loser from the Queen of Bullshit.

  43. "Madonna allowed ... says – reply to this


    43

    … additional dialogue written by Eugene himself to be included in the film." "Allowed?" Let's just hope she didn't write any of it! It's obvious she can't write (check out the "rap" "album" she "wrote" with that idiotic song about soy latte's)–nor can she sing, dance or act. So, one must only surmise that she can't write or direct a film either. Come to mention it, she can't even "allow" her husband to interview for his latest film w/out butting in and nagging him. What a no-talent shrew!

    bitch will keep photo retouchers in business for decades

  46. DE says – reply to this


    46

    I had to look at the caption to realize who this was…. it looks NOTHING like Madonna…. her face is much more harsh and wrinkled now…. the photo retouchers did a major job on this picture…. maybe madonna is thinking of cosmetic surgery to look like this picture (which looks a little like Uma Thurman I think)…. since Courtney Love seems to be morphing into Madonna surgery appointment by surgery appointment.

    it'll be stupid & flop just like her other movies. This 'it' is nothing but a copy cat skanky pig who has no originality. i cunt understand why anyone thinks she can sign. if she didn't strip & do soft porn, she would me the nothing it is. go #48…where can i sign.

    I love it! Something else to keep her in the news ALL YEAR LONG. 2008 is gonna be her year and its making the haters go CRAZY! You know when the haters start posting in droves that they are SCARED! No other diva can touch Madonna–best selling tours of all time, best selling female singer, has had 5 successful movies plus has won a Golden Globe for Best Actress for Evita, going into the ROCK HALL OF FAME no matter what( on the FIRST ballot FIRST time nominated, that is HUGE), always tops every critics "Best of" lists, now she is directing 2 movies—-oh this is GOOD. Your words cannot stop her and the cumulative effect of al the nasty posts will change NO ONES mind! Carry on losers, Madonna will continue to kick ass and take names!

    53

    Let's hope Germans don't know Madonna belongs to a Jewish sect.
    They allowed her to present her work because she is rich and famous can't they help young and talented directors Madonna has no acting talent she is too in love with herself to be someone else im sure she sucks at directing too.When this old cow would realize she is not 20 anymore go away bitch and do something with your hairy kid.

    to #48: Pop music is a sub genre of rock. If you would do some research first you wouldn't come across as a moron. Madonna deserves the honor. Your petition is one of the most pathetic things I have ever seen and you are taking petty jealousy to a whole new level.

  62. Matthew says – reply to this


    62

    Anyone who thinks she can't act obviously hasn't seen Evita or Dangerous Game. Sure, sometimes she's a bit lackluster onscreen but if she's passionate about a role she can really perform well.

    DEAR PEOPLE-

    THIS WILL ONLY BE AN INTERESTING TO SEE BECAUSE TWO POLAR OPPOSITES IN THE MUSIC WORLD ARE COLLABORATING IDEAS (EUGENE HUTZ, A FUCKING GENIUS, AND MADONNA, AN OLD HAG BITCH WHO THINKS SHE IS STILL 18).
    MADONNA IS USING GOGOL BORDELLO AND EUGENE HUTZ TO REACH AN AUDIENCE THAT HATES HER LIVING GUTS, AND HOPES SHE CAN SUCK IDEAS AND SHIT OUT OF THEM, CLAIMING THEM AS HER OWN. SHE CHANGES HER PERSONA CONSTANTLY AND HAS NOW CHOSEN TO TAKE ON THE ROLE OF A GYPSY, AND IS USING GOGOL BORDELLO AND EUGENE AS HER PUPPETS.
    PAMELA RACINE IS AN AMAZING WOMAN AND ALL YOU FUCKING PEOPLE SAYING SHE SLEEPS AROUND ARE JEALOUS ABOUT HER AND ELIJAH WOODS. YOU WILL NEVER DATE HIM, SO KEEP ON SITTING ON YOUR FAT UGLY ASS AT YOUR COMPUTER LOOKING UP PICTURES OF HIM ON GOOGLE AND BEING AN IMMATURE SHIT. PAMELA WILL JUST BEAT YOUR ASS UP WITH HER DRUM.

    MADONNA IS AN OLD PASTY PIG

    Re: GOGOL BORELLO – Have You Lost Your Mind?
    When Gogol Borello performed with Madonna for Live Earth it was the largest concert they had ever done and made them more famous around the globe than ever befor. I had never heard them now Im a fan. They can probably get three times what they were getting paid befor they got with Madonna.
    Madonna is a grown worldly woman who is experiencing art, music, culture, on a whole other level. Ive always gotten the impression that Madonna loves anything thats in the subculture or in the shadows. Madonna could find inspiration in a black empty paper bag. Madonna is very respected amongst her peers because they appreciate someone who is intelligent, interested, healthy, motivated, inspired, excited.
    Ever since the beginning Ive seen Madonna as an intelligent woman. Just looking into her eyes as a child in pictures, you could tell she was sharp.

    MADONNA IS THE GREATEST. She is still on top after 25 years on the industry (most singers career´s last…3, 4 years). THIS WOULD BE AWESOME. And this picture is from 2001 (was taken on the "Music" era)

    Madonna rules! Hey dirty snatches…acting and directing are completely different. Here's an idea…wait to see what kind of movie she delivers and what the actors bring to the movie before wiping your stinky vaginas all over the projector. How can so many people still be SOOOO jealous of Madonna? I love her but hell…I can see she is even more relevant than I thought.
