Amy Adams, Pierce Brosnan back on the big screen

Our L.A. reporters have been movie-watching machines, and they offer their insight about two more soon-to-be-released films below. Both open in March and star many well-known actors. Check out what they've got to say about the upcoming film starring Amy Adams, Frances McDormand and newcomer Lee Pace, and be and be sure to scroll all the way down to get the report on the project starring Chris Cooper, Pierce Brosnan and Rachel McAdams.

"Last year’s Oscar nominee for Junebug, Amy Adams made another splash in the recent Enchanted.  Next she plays a flibbertigibbet in 1930s London in Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day.  Oscar winner Frances McDormand plays the title character, a British governess, who inadvertently organizes Adams’ life.  But Adams is the reason to see the film.  She’s so irresponsible and delectable you’ve got to love her.  Look out for Pushing Daisies' Lee Pace, a poor but handsome piano player you want her to wind up with.  Adams could well be a presenter at this year’s Oscars—assuming the writers’ strike gets settled—and McDormand is likely to be there on the arm of her husband, No Country for Old Men co-writer and co-director Joel Coen, whose film is up for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Editor (under the pseudonym Roderick Jaynes).

Then there's Married Life. Recently seen as master spy Robert Hanssen in Breach, Chris Cooper is up to his elbows in skullduggery again in this suspenseful comedy co-starring Pierce Brosnan and Rachel McAdams.  Again Cooper keeps it all inside as he navigates between his adoring wife (Patricia Clarkson) and an equally adoring mistress (McAdams) — until Brosnan decides to stir the pot a little.  It’s a delicious comedy of manners set in pre-Mad Men 1949.  My, they do puff on those cancer sticks."

Now too bad Pierce won't come forward and prove or disprove that he has a real life sister, Carol Plants, as reported overseas. Check out http://www.mi6.co.uk/news/index.php?itemid=6007
