Married and Buried Way back in September I was lucky enough to go to the Buried press junket and hover in the corner breathing heavily while Derek interviewed the film’s star, Ryan Reynolds, and Director, Rodrigo Cortes.  It was the perfect day in every way but one… although obviously I could feel the sexual tension in the air and Ry-Ry kept winking at me (or twitching, whatever), he hadn’t formally announced his divorce from Black Widow yet and thus I, being the lady that I am, didn’t feel comfortable putting the moves on him.  But now the stars have aligned and I have a second chance!  Buried premieres on EPIX this Sunday and you can bet your bottom dollar that I will be transporting myself into that coffin with Ryan during his time of need.  Sure, a stranger teleporting herself into the ground with some romantic candles, homemade trail mix, and a camel back filled with margaritas might not make total sense to the storyline of the film, but true love knows no bounds. To call Ryan the “star” of the film is really doing him a disservice – he is literally the only actor.  Unlike other single-character films like 127 Hours (they threw in some flashbacks and a couple other hikers) or Castaway (Wilson the volleyball deserved an Oscar if you ask me), Ryan is the only face we see.  And what a hunky face it is.  His character goes through a broad arc of feelings – fear, anger, determination, despair, and confusion… kind of like my feelings on an average date.   You know how sometimes movie studios will auction off costumes or sets from films?  Well, believe you me, if this dang box becomes available I will sell all my worldly possessions to own it and sleep in it every night.  Creepy, yes, but also such a great space saver!  Be sure to look at our movie page where you can see our interview with Ryan and Rodrigo where they discuss the Hitchcockian elements of the film (the constant, elevated suspense will get your heart pounding), the difficulties of filming in one spot with one man, and – best of all – video of when I trapped Derek (the other man in my life) in his own box at Comic Con.  Whoops!
