“Nine” is a new movie we got really excitied about a few months ago when he heard about the cast…
It stars Daniel Day Lewis and is all about the life of director Guido Contini.
The $60 million production explores how Contini confronted a mid-life crisis, with creative troubles and personal woes.
He tries to balance this with his women, including his wife, played by Marion Cotillard, his mistress, played by Penelope Cruz, his muse, played by Nicole Kidman, and his costume designer, played by Judi Dench.
He must also contend with a fashion journalist, played by Kate Hudson, a prostitute from his youth, played by Stacy “Fergie” Ferguson, and his mother, played by Sophia Loren.
Black Eyed Peas singer Stacy Ferguson, aka Fergie, lends her musical expertise to the film, in which she plays Saraghina, a prostitute.

The original 1982 Broadway production of Nine won five Tony Awards including Best Musical.
The big screen version, directed by Rob Marshall, is due to be released over here on Christmas Day.
