Video from Set of Inherent Vice Unearthed (UPDATE)



TERRIBLE music aside, An updated version of the cool little video from the Inherent Vice set has just popped up on youtube, allowing us our first glimpse of Doc Sportello in motion. The music has been swiped, and it's over two full minutes longer than the version that dropped a few days ago. These changes mean that you can faintly hear Paul calling "cut" at the beginning of the clip, see him directing a bit more clearly around the 1:20 mark, and actually watch a take happen (from afar - no spoilers) towards the end of the thing, not to mention all the other fun stuff we saw in the earlier version, like Joaquin interacting with Jordan Christian Hearn, who will be playing Denis in the film, and, most amusingly, his cigarette-henchman at 0:55. Have a peek!

Our There Will Be Blood screening contest is now closed, and the winners have been emailed. Thank you to everyone who entered and maybe we can set up more things like this in the future.

Stay tuned to Twitter and Facebook for the latest news and updates.
"The Master" is now available on Blu-ray and DVD

    1. I think the uploader added his own. He's a 16 y/o kid.

    2. Mustang Sally is a good song, I certainly wouldn't label it as "terrible."

    3. Yeah that was a pretty weirdly stong-worded way to start the newspost.

  2. I actually like the music it creates a cool atmosphere. I have had the soundtrack to Inherent Vice as its listed on amazon on my ipod for months now and I have been listening to it over and over... and over. I hope Paul keeps it all because the music is soo good and fitting

    1. I'm sure he will keep some of it but music selection has often been a big way for PTA to express himself. Betting he will have at least a few less commercial songs of his own choosing from the era in there.

    2. I hope so too. I love "Bamboo" by Johnny and the Hurricanes, it sounds like it could be the theme song of the movie:

      Very 60s surfer and I can picture some sweet psychadelic scenes to that song and a lot of the music. The book has 3 or 4 beach boys songs too which really help to push that 60s surfer feel

    3. people are strange by the doors HAS to be in the film i mean imagine this song in the scene where doc drives in the mist

    4. ^^^ that would suck.

  3. At the VERY least they coulda went with the classy Wilson Pickett version of Mustang Sally....

  4. Maybe it's just Joaquin being Joaquin but it looks like he's in character off-camera. Pretty cool to see how that works. Always wanted to see a visualization of what DDL is so famously like on a movie set when the camera isn't rolling. Haven't seen that yet but this is kinda cool though.

  5. Does anyone see Witherspoon? The uploader said she's in there, but I don't think that's correct.

    1. I'm pretty sure the uploader was implying that the movie stars her and Joaquin, not that she's in the video.

  8. The area where they're filming looks exactly like the rows of houses shown in the Pynchon-narrated Inherent Vice video. I wouldn't be surprised, really.

    1. It was filmed in Manhatten Beach in the very same area Pynchon lived in 1969-1970. It's around the corner from that surf club. They were scouting the location a couple of months ago.

  9. i THINK this might be the scene right in the beginning of the book right after Shasta comes to Doc's place with the case when Denis comes over they go to the bar that is playing "Sugar Sugar" by the Archies

  10. What is James Adomian doing on set?

  11. shit, i didn't even notice. i guess C&RV has some casting news to report

  13. Just discovered a really cool link between this movie and Pynchon's new novel "Bleeding Edge".

    Jeannie Berlin, who's playing Aunt Reet in this movie, is also the reader for the audiobook of Bleeding Edge.

    Wonder if Pynchon recommended her to PTA.

  14. Haha a 3:34 minute video without music just went up from the same set. You might want to add an update.

  15. Oh yeah! I can tell Paul and his team are preparing to give us another gem and I'm feelin' a Finchery Zodiac kind of visual vibe here with this movie. Much love to Cigs & Vines for keeping the fans in the loop!

  16. i can't wait to see some photos with the big names(brolin,wilson,del toro)....i know that wilson is filming a movie in new york and del toro in south america and the rumoured sean penn is in france i think...does that mean that they already filmed their scenes?

    1. 'scheduled' filming wraps in less than a week..though who knows when it really will go into post-production

      Delete
    2. yes maybe it's a wrap for the los angeles area of shooting...they might go to vegas next since there are some major scenes in the book and then come back to california

      Delete
  17. Wilson is already done and I think so is Brolin, at least mostly. Brolin might still have a couple of things left. Del Toro had only three days of filming and is probably done, since they already filmed in the marina (the boat stuff) and one of his scenes was there. All the Sashta Fay stuff was filmed the two weeks after she was cast. I don't think Penn is in the film. I think Witherspoon is the only big name left. She's doing a nude scene, BTW.

    1. ok so it seems that you are a bit more informed than the rest of us so let me ask you 2 questions:
      will they film in vegas?
      who is kevin j o'connor playing?thx

    2. I'm not allowed to say, because we're sworn to secrecy for the time being, but one of Anon's suppositions is wrong. Not going to say which.

      Delete
    3. Well either reese is not going nude or sean. Is in the.film corect?

      Delete
    4. Bryan, not nice. Tell us which. That literally says nothing. You guys reported Sean, is it that? If Reese is playing Penny, there's a big sex scene in the book. But I have a feeling she's not in it anymore at all. She fired her manager today, there's been no hint of her on the set. There is only a week left in filming if the original schedule still holds.

      Delete
    5. I better see some Withertits, or someone dies.

      J/K I think original anon is full of BS and is just fishing, telling us what he thinks will happen.

      Delete
    6. Someone saw Reese on the set. Three days ago, When they're filming in Manhattan Beach. Several twit on that day.

      Delete
    7. I guess Reese Witherspoon is playing Hope, Maybe Shasta. Not Penny.

      Delete
    8. Will someone please tell us who the fuck Witherspoon is playing!

      Delete
    9. I hate this expression but it's needed: pics or it didnt happen. seriously.

      Delete
    10. Is it that there is still another big name to be announced?

      Delete
    11. Thomas Pynchon is narrating. It's that, isn't it?

      Delete
    12. Well bryan said that one of that anon suppositions is wrong so ii guess that either there is a big name.left unrevealed or sean penn is in the film probably as mickey wolfmann and he already film his scenes.
      After all cv reported that he is in negotiacions to star and guesses he is adrian prussia a role that went to peter mcrobbie but that was just a guess so maybe penn is in

    2. my money is on Emma Dumont as Trillium. she's very young and, judging by the woman in the short videos, might be her. just a speculation though http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2730808/

    3. Are the videos playing for everyone else? Do I have to make an Instagram account to watch those?

    4. no, you just have to wait a moment for it to load. one of the video freezes in the middle then keeps playing

  22. We went to schools. We went to the government offices, and it was incredibly safe. Or it seemed that way. Maybe it's not fair to draw parallels to Beltran's refusal to try to hit right on right as his strained right hand continues to affect his left handed swing. Still, "I'd do it every day if I had to" sounds a lot better to fans than, "I'm a switch hitter. That's not me.".

    Paddling back to the wave becomes less of a strain as well. The ability to cruise along on flat inland water, surveying the sights, is another advantage. Finally, it a good core workout. The probability to increase sales and subsequently your profits increase considerably if a business accepts all the major credit cards for payment. So when looking for company which provides PC based payment processing system, always select the company which understands your business requirements and can provide you customised solutions.
