Icy wilderness, towering wildlife, hair-raising escapes: Nope, they’re not scenes from Leonardo DiCaprio‘s Oscar-winning drama The Revenant. Rather, they’re all-too-real interludes from a sprawling global jaunt to sound the alarm on an escalating crisis.
The actor and environmental activist has produced and appears in a documentary on climate change titled Before the Flood, which is directed by Fisher Stevens and had its world premiere Thursday at the United Nations headquarters in New York City.
“I mean, there were definitely some hairy moments,” the actor told People at the premiere...

Kristen Stewart in Jake Scott‘s Welcome to the Rileys (top); Michael P. Nash‘s Climate Refugees (upper middle); Roger Corman (lower middle); Neil Marshall‘s Centurion (bottom) Jake Scott‘s Welcome to the Rileys, starring Kristen Stewart (whose The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is screening tonight at midnight); Michael P. Nash‘s Climate Refugees; and "School of Corman: A Conversation with Roger Corman" are some of the Friday, June 25, highlights at the 2010 Los Angeles Film Festival. Welcome to the Rileys earned good notices for its cast when screened at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. Kristen Stewart stars as a pole dancer-cum-sex worker befriended by a man (James Gandolfini) whose daughter has recently died. Melissa Leo co-stars.

The 2010 Los Angeles Film Festival is set to run June 17-27 in a brand new location. Oh, it’s still in L.A, but it’s moving across town, from Westwood — where it’s been held the past few years — all the way over to Downtown.
The main “hub” for the fest will be the new L.A. Live complex, but there will also be screenings at other locations, such as the Downtown Independent and Redcat theaters. The city is really trying to build downtown up into a major arts and culture hub, so the festival moving there fits in with that agenda. Film Independent, the organization that runs Laff, also runs the annual Independent Spirit Awards, an event that also moved downtown — from Santa Monica — this year.
