Fiona Shaw - a true actor preps for the National Theatre

I absolutely love watching actors prepare.

Fiona Shaw is currently bewitching audiences as Marnie on HBO's True Blood, but in 2009 she was starring in Berholt Brecht's 'Mother Courage and her Children', directed by Deborah Warner on the Olivier Stage.


 This is a rare glimpse behind the scenes as she prepares for the nights performance.

'Monsters' in time for Halloween

"Monsters," writer-director Gareth Edwards' shoestring budget horror film, has been slated for release on Oct. 29.

Edwards went to the south of France this year to screen the film at the Cannes Market, possibly spending more on travel and lodging than he did on his film, which nonetheless earned raves, and promptly got picked up by Magnet films.

"Monsters" has been described as “like 'Lost in Translation,' set in Mexico, but with gigantic alien monsters,” by /Film, which reported that Edwards spent a whopping $15,000 shooting his film.

Check out the featurette below to learn some of his tricks.
