Every March, the Nielsen Film Group puts on an exhibition in Las Vegas for the National Association of Theatre Owners; this event is known as ShoWest. Some of the biggest movie studios in Hollywood attend the event every year, and this year (like most) Warner Bros was there. With Warner Bros. today was writer/director Christopher Nolan and his upcoming film Inception. According to reports, Chris was still very secretive about the plot details while presenting new footage from the film. The presentation amounted to being the length of an extended trailer or so, and it didn’t seem to give any more indication to what exactly Inception is about. In fact, some people claim to be more confused! However, El Guapo from Latino Review seems to have a better understanding of just what exactly Leonardo DiCaprio’s character is doing. “[He] leads a team of security people who go into people’s dreams to ‘guard their subconscious’”. Something he supposedly explains with Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s character to (Ken Watanabe’s character) Sato.
Journalists at the event claim the footage reveals that there is a lot of action and mind-warping effects shots. Fabulous location footage from Paris and Canada were also revealed, as well as Michael Caine’s and Marion Cotillard’s characters. Just in case you’re trying to keep your mind fresh for when Inception hits theaters on July 16th, we won’t reveal anymore here. But if you want to learn more about what was shown, you can read reports at Latino Review, ComingSoon and CinemaBlend.

Alexandra Burroughs wrote a couple articles for various Canadian Publications this week talking about Inception‘s top-secret production heading to Calgary later this month. Apparently crew members have been constructing an “enormous mountaintop building” for the film for the past several months. This top-secret set has been built in a remote location in the foothills west of Calgary, Canada. Alexandra writes about Nolan being famous for keeping his movies a secret until their release. She mentions the fake working title of Oliver’s Arrow, the “crippling” NDA’s, and the scripts that are apparently resistant to photocopying.
The set has been built at the top of an abandoned ski hill in Kananaskis. It is on public land, but the area is difficult to reach. Although hikers and mountain-bike enthusiasts may have come across the set throughout the past three months while it was under construction, the area will now be patrolled by security guards 24 hours a day. Cold weather and off-season tourism will help keep casual fans at bay, but there may be no avoiding the paparazzi.
Time will tell how well the security holds up on the set. Pictures from the various production locations across the globe managed to come out, but something tells me this location will be different. The move to Canada will be will be turn to the home-stretch for Inception‘s production, which as been active since June of this year. Stick tuned for more updates.

MTV’s Josh Horowitz recently sat down with Marion Cotillard to discuss her upcoming role along side Johnny Depp in this summer’s Public Eniemes, but more pertinent to us, Christopher Nolan’s next film, Inception. She wasn’t able to reveal anything we don’t really know already, but she did have some nice things to say about director Christopher Nolan.“[Nolan] is so interesting,†she said. “He writes his own scripts. He seems to be, from what I saw and what I read, so rich inside. He’s got so many things to say and share and he’s a very, very smart guy. You really can feel it in his writing.â€Check out the video below, and the full article at the MTV Movies Blog.
