John Barry has died, aged 77.

The legendary composer, best known for his plethora of Bond musical brilliance, has died of a heart attack in New York.

Born in 1933, Barry found fame with his band, the John Barry Seven, who had several hits. He then turned his hand to movies, which led to the arrangement of Monty Norman's music for the first James Bond film, Dr. No. This iconic theme prompted a run of 11 Bond film scores, including You Only Live Twice and, of course, Goldfinger.

His talents won him five Oscars across the board, from Born Free, which won Best Score and Best Song, to Dances with Wolves and Out of Africa. He also worked on classics such as Midnight Cowboy, The Ipcress File and, in 1962, The Amorous Prawn.

Barry was awarded an OBE in 1998, the same year as Robbie Williams' single Milennium, which included a segment of You Only Twice. He also won four Grammys, a BAFTA and a Golden Globe.

His last film score was in 2001 for Enigma, but here's a far more fitting tribute to the man's impeccable musical prowess:

How do you follow up an Oscar for Best Film? Chop James Franco's arm off is how. 127 Hours is the true story of climber Aron Ralston (Franco), who enjoyed hopping around Utah canyons in 2003 until he found himself the wrong side of a massive rock.

"It feels like maybe I'm not feeling badly enough for you!"

Ah, the familiar sounds of grief in an Oscar-grabbing film. After last night's Brighton Rock at the London Film Festival, those in the audience who expected Rabbit Hole to be the Surprise Film finally have an answer to the question "Sorry, what film?"

John Cameron Mitchell's drama follows Becca (Nicole Kidman) and Howie (Aaron Eckhart) as they cope with the loss of their son via car crash. Adapted from David Lindsay-Abaire's play, it's a heavy, full-on tale of woe and emotion. Hooray.

It's perhaps a bit of a tonal shift from Hedwig and the Angry Inch and Shortbus, but Mitchell has got himself a big-name line-up to bring the sadness. Will they move you to tears?

Rabbit Hole hits cinemas in the US in December (and France this week), so we'll get this sometime next year. Head over to Apple to see the trailer, or read on for the full video.

It won Best Foreign Film at the Oscars last year, and now it might win Best Film. Yes, The Secret in Their Eyes is getting a remake.

Warner Bros. have pounced on the Argentinian thriller (which was rather incredible) and plan to bring it to English audiences with the help of director Billy Ray. The Secret in Their Eyes told the tale of determined lawman Benjamin Esposito, who was obsessed with solving a brutal rape and murder from 25 years ago. Ray wrote and directed Shattered Glass and co-wrote State of Play's script, so he's not a bad fit for the slow-paced thriller.

But the most reassuring thing? Original director Juan Jose Campanella is on board as an executive producer. Although whether the whole endeavour is pointless will once again be up for debate.

Rachel Weisz will be reuniting with City of God's Fernando Meirelles for his latest film, 360. The pair, who worked on The Constant Gardener together, will re-team for a drama that involves lots of sex and promiscuity. Huzzah.

Written by Peter Morgan, 360 is based on an Austrian play called Reigen, which show a series of couples doing the naughty, each one following on from the main two characters' previous encounters. Eventually, the love comes full circle. As it were.

The original play inspired a French film called La Ronde in 1950. That earned itself two Oscar nominations (Best Writing and Best Art Direction - read "vaseline"). So if The Queen's screenwriter is working with Fernando Meirelles, the Constant Gardener director who got Rachel Weisz her Best Supporting Actor gong, then this could be the most awards-friendly sex film of the year. That and Piranha 3D.

BBC Films are putting up the funds along with Austrian TV channel ORF. Now we're just waiting to see who it is Rachel Weisz will be sleeping with.

Hands up who knows what the Ozark Mountains look like? Well, you won't soon forget after watching this bleak thriller. Winter's Bone is the hot tip for awards success this year, and it's not hard to see why: you haven't seen a landscape so unwelcoming since No Country for Old Men or The Road. Oh yes, Debra Granik's woodlands are bleak. Bleak bleak bleak.

You know how it is. You're out rock climbing. You meet a man. He looks a lot like James Franco. James Franco's pretty hot. He asks you to plummet to certain doom and see his secret cave pool. And, of course, you agree.

That's pretty much what happens in this new clip from 127 Hours, Danny Boyle's true-life tale of Aron Ralston. The incredible trailer already gave us a glimpse of Aron's new-found friends (Kate Mara and Amber Tamblyn if you were wondering) but now you can enjoy their water-soaked company for an extra couple of minutes. Then you can worry later about Aron getting his arm stuck under a rock and being trapped in a Utah canyon until he... well, you know.

127 Hours has been blowing away festival audiences in Toronto, with standing ovations and crowd buzz the likes of which haven't been since since Slumdog - oh, wait. With only a few weeks to go before Danny Boyle closes the London Film Festival on Thursday 28th October, the excitement is through the roof. And breaking through the neighbour's front door.

127 Hours is released in UK cinemas on Friday 5th November. Check out the trailer over here, see the full LFF line-up, or read on for the new clip, courtesy of Cinema Blend - thanks Cinema Blend. Thinema Blend.

Paramount have found the IMF agent they were looking for: Jeremy Renner will star opposite Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible 4.

Renner, whose inbox has been flooded with big projects after his blistering turn in Kathryn Bigelow's The Hurt Locker, is all set to join the series and give it some fresh new blood. That's what the studio wanted - someone to take over the franchise should Ethan Hunt and Cruise become too old to jump off motorbikes and rappel down buildings and other impossible stuff.

After looking at folks like Chris Pine and Anthony Mackie, they went for Mackie's co-star. Renner will be joining the M:I-4 cast, which will most likely include Ving Rhames and Simon Pegg, with director Brad Bird aiming for a release in December 2011. Which all sounds, you know, quite possible really.

The Secret in their Eyes is known (if at all) by those who expected The White Ribbon or Un Prophete to win this year's Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. When Juan Jose Campanella’s Argentinian detective story stole the gong from under their subtitles, the film world sat up and paid attention. They’ll keep doing so throughout this intriguing thriller.

Remember A Prophet? And The White Ribbon? Remember that film that beat them both to the Oscar for Best Foreign Film this year? Well, you soon will do, because the trailer for The Secrets in Their Eyes is now online.

Juan Jose Campanella's award-winning Argentinian thriller tells the tale of a brutal rape and murder in the 70s, which federal agent Benjamin Esposito (Ricardo Darin) investigates. 20 years on, Esposito is old, grey-haired and full of flashbacks to the hunt for the woman's killer.

Vowing to her husband to bring the culprit to justice, he works against the system with the help of his friend Pablo Sandoval (Guillermo Francella) and sexy boss Irene Hastings (Soledad Villamil). Digging up the past, Esposito writes it all down in a novel, excavating old secrets and hidden passions.

The Secret in Their Eyes hits UK cinemas on Friday 13th August and is absolutely incredible - you can check out our review in a couple of week's time. Until then, head over to Empire for the trailer or read on for the full video.
