Don't know how many US fans use this site other than me, but there's a coupon out for $3 off of Margin Call on DVD or Blu-Ray. It's supposed to be out today (and since the coupon is out, I'm guessing it is!)

(If you don't wish to follow that link, because I think it's a pay link for the blog I got it from, go to Coupons.com. It should be under Entertainment. The zip code used was 77777 but it's probably nationwide. |

Apparently Margin Call was reviewed on BBC1s Film 2012 last night. According to LocateTV, this episode is repeated on Monday 16th January at 1.05am, or it can be watched online here (duration 39 minutes, but Margin Call review is at 19:30 for 5 minutes, they highly recommend the film): http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b019g47d |

Some interesting info in this Margin Call review - 'When the Wall came tumbling down: http://www.smh.com.au/enterta....mm.html
Excerpts:
Chandor, 38, says he shot some of Irons' close-ups after a gruelling 12 hours to catch the actor at his most fatigued. Watch carefully and you can see him trembling.
The film was shot in a mere 17 days. Quinto, Badgley and Bettany were on set every day; Spacey for 12. Everyone else shot their roles in three to five days. |

Went on an eight hour round trip to Edinburgh today to see Margin Call. So far the only cinema in Scotland screening it is there. It was well worth the journey. The cast were all excellent and I really enjoyed the story (even understood some of it). Simon was on screen more than I thought he would be and played the part of cold-hearted steeliness to perfection. Unfortunately he looked so good I still couldn't help but love him!!! Can anybody out there reassure me
that I am not the only 66 year old affected by Simon in this way or do I need professional help? Tassie. |

Hi Tassie, no you are not alone! I'm a mere 65 and Simon has the same affect on me. He's such a great actor and with those looks, who couldn't love him. I don't think any "professional" could help me!  Bee |

Well I'm 69 and he makes me go weak at the knees. There's no help for me either. |

My niece-in-law is 23, I'm 48 and my Mum is 74, and we're all completely potty about him. I think perhaps he's just one of those lovely, natural gentlemen who has all round sex appeal and is improving with age.  |

Quote (Tassie) Went on an eight hour round trip to Edinburgh today to see Margin Call.
Wow, and I thought I was being brave with a 5 hour round trip to Cardiff. I've seen the film, but I'm really looking forward to seeing Simon on the big screen. I think the film is excellent and its a shame its not being shown in more cinemas in the UK, I also thought the performances of the whole cast were first-rate. I think my favourite scene has to be the shaving one though 
Quote (Tassie) Unfortunately he looked so good I still couldn't help but love him!!!
Yes, I thought Simon really nailed Jared's dead-eyed, ruthless and emotion-less character but even so I can't help but love him in everything - even in Smith where he was a really bad bad boy. |
