Shoes highlight a stand against violence
Local News
CATHY Freeman, Rove McManus, Danny Green, Bert Newton, Livinia Nixon, James Hird, Missy Higgins, Steve Waugh, Tara Moss, Eric Bana, Germaine Greer, Premier Steve Bracks, Jacinta Allan, Liz Ellis and Damien Oliver’s shoes all came to Bendigo this week.
The shoes are part of YWCA Victoria’s ‘Seventy7 Pairs of Shoes Exhibition’ featuring 77 shoes from high profile Australians and personal messages standing up against domestic violence.
The 77 pairs of shoes are in recognition of the number of Australians who tragically die as a result of domestic violence annually.
“Each year, on average, 77 Australians die as a result of domestic violence, the majority of whom are women,” Victorian YWCA president Shannon Rees said.
“In Victoria alone domestic violence is responsible for more premature deaths of women aged 15 to 44 than any other well-known risk factors, including high blood pressure, obesity and smoking.
“The Seventy7 Pairs of Shoes Exhibition aims to generate awareness of the devastating impact domestic violence has on families and our community.
“The daily tragedy of violence against women should be of great concern to all Australians.”
The exhibition was launched at Bendigo on Monday, in the Hargreaves Mall.
Eric Bana have a Big Heart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eric Bana and Terrence Howard are set to star in the thriller, Factor X for New Line Cinema.
Gregory Allen Howard wrote the script that tells the true tale of how the BTK killer was captured. The serial killer known as BTK murdered people in and around Wichita, Kan., from 1974-91 and was finally caught in 2005, turning out to be a mild-mannered leader at a local church. The acronym described his modus operandi, which was to bind, torture and kill.
Ridley Scott is producing and The Hollywood Reporter says he will possibly direct. Bana will play the detective and Terrence Howard would be the counterterrorism expert.
Factor X, which takes its name from what the killer described in taunting letters to the police as his motive for murder, tells how a young, black counterterrorism expert from Washington teamed up with a Wichita police detective, who spent his career trying to chase down the killer.

ERIC BANA IN THE PREMIERE OF BOBBY
Standing Ovation For 'Bobby'
Emilio Estevez’s terrific movie, "Bobby," got a standing ovation last night at its premiere sponsored by the Times of London for the London Film Festival.
Estevez looked mildly shocked on stage as a full Odeon theatre, with guests including likely future prime minister of England Gordon Brown, honored him for his work on this outstanding film.
"Bobby," as I told you some weeks ago, is a Robert Altman-like story of many different characters at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles on June 4, 1968, as Kennedy makes his way there to celebrate winning the California primary.
Last night, a few of the cast members including Christian Slater, Joy Bryant, Svetlana Metkina and Freddy Rodriguez (of "Six Feet Under" fame) came with Estevez and his new fiancée to accept the kudos.
The screening — and following swellicious party at Claridge’s — was such a hot ticket that Estevez’s other guests included Oscar-winning directors Anthony Minghella and Hugh Hudson; actors Jason Isaacs, Eric Bana, Jonathan Rhys-Meyers as well as Americans Elizabeth Banks and John Michael Higgins, who came over from shooting “Fred Claus” nearby with Judi Dench, Vince Vaughn and Kevin Spacey.
The screening was also such a success that later at Claridge’s, Slater showed off a previously unknown talent: he performed with the 12-piece swing band that the Times had hired, credibly crooning Frank Sinatra’s hits like "Come Fly with Me" and "Luck Be a Lady Tonight." Who knew Slater could give such a credible show? Maybe a Broadway musical is in his future.
But it was Emilio’s night, and he was a bit overwhelmed. The eldest son of Martin Sheen (and brother, yes, of Charlie Sheen) has been absent from Hollywood for 10 years after a wild ride as part of the Brat Pack with Demi Moore and Rob Lowe and as star of the "Mighty Ducks" movies for Disney. The latter, however, was what did him in.
“I made a deal with the devil,” Emilio told me. “Disney wanted me to do another 'Mighty Ducks' movie. I wanted to direct a film called 'The War at Home.' Disney said they would put it out. So I made the 'Mighty Ducks' and they opened it on 2,000 screens. Then I made 'The War at Home,' with Kathy Bates and my dad. Disney opened it on four screens and it died. It just about killed me. I quit the business. I said, that’s it.”
It’s nothing new about Disney, of course. The much-praised small drama should never have been released by them. It made $35,000 and disappeared without a trace.
Estevez — who’d been briefly married to Paula Abdul and had seen the ups and downs of Hollywood from all sides — packed up his tent.
Luckily, he didn’t go away forever. "Bobby" springs from the stories of the people who were shot by Sirhan Sirhan in the Ambassador kitchen when he assassinated Kennedy. It’s kind of a brilliant idea, since no one remembers that there was collateral damage that day (none of the people died, but they were badly wounded).
Estevez combined several of the characters, and invented others in the hotel. The result he says, is “that we could have called the movie 'Ordinary People' if that title didn’t already exist. The movie is about those people.”
"Bobby" is filled with cameos by famous actors, many of whom are Estevez’s friends. They are not the usual Oscar-worthy crowd — no Denches or Blanchetts, although Anthony Hopkins and Harry Belafonte have some wonderful scenes together as the former doorman and security guard of the hotel now facing retirement (watch Hopkins’ wordless reaction when he’s told Kennedy has been shot. It’s perfect).
But the movie, strangely enough, soars with more unlikely types. Sharon Stone as the hotel beautician is a revelation, and will likely gain a Best Supporting Actress nomination.
If Moore were in the movie longer, she’d be there too. But her performance, however brief, as Stone’s customer, is the best work she’s ever done.
On the male side, Jacob Vargas, Laurence Fishburne and Rodriguez — who may also get an Oscar nod — are wonderful as kitchen workers.
William H. Macy, Slater and young Shia LaBeouf — who’s also the star of the current "A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints" — are memorably good.
Estevez’s next stop with "Bobby" is the American Film Institute on Nov. 1, where the movie gets it’s Los Angeles premiere.
But paparazzi be warned — Charlie Sheen is not coming.
“He says he has to memorize his lines for 'Two and A Half Men,'” Emilio says, rolling his eyes

Re: Bana Alerts
Eric Bana Wanted For Irwin Biopic
Munich star Eric Bana is the frontrunner to play tragic Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin in a potential biopic, as far as the celebrity conservationist's best pal is concerned.
Irwin's friend and manager John Stainton recalls Irwin asking his fellow Aussie to play him if there was ever a film about his life.
Stainton says, "He (Irwin) raced up to him on the red carpet and said 'Eric, you have to promise me one thing, mate - you've got to play me when I die.' If we ever do a movie I'd have to get Eric Bana."
Irwin's pal Russell Crowe was the first name mentioned in relation to a biopic. He immediately played down the rumours, stating, "It's appalling to me and offends me very deeply. It's so awful that I have to deal with millions of people thinking I would dance on my friend's grave."
