On The Road hits theaters nationwide today! The movie, which is a film adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s classic autobiographical coming-of-age novel, stars Kristen Stewart, Kirsten Dunst, Amy Adams, and Garrett Hedlund as a gang of wandering souls who hit the road on a journey to find themselves. Sam Riley plays the Kerouac character, Sal Paradise. “We’re all such a tight-knit family because everybody was so passionate about the book,” Hedlund told InStyle.com at the Toronto International Film Festival. The ladies of the film had another way to bond—through the Danny Glicker-designed wardrobe on set, even those parts that remain unseen. “He is so caring and specific about details,” Stewart said. “Even with an article of clothing like an undergarment, he’s like ‘Do you feel pretty?’ Do you like it?’ He fuses you into it and allows you to feel a little responsible, involved.” Dunst enchoed that sentiment: “We had high-waisted underwear and bras with a pointed shape—you can tell because of the way your breasts look in the shirts is a more pointed silhouette.” Click here to see where the film is playing near you.

It’s time for a history lesson at the movies, as Hyde Park on the Hudson opens in theaters today! The movie tells the story of how one of the country’s most well-known presidents, President Franklin D. Roosevelt (played by Bill Murray), met one of his closets confidants, his distant cousin/love interest Margaret “Daisy” Suckley (played by Laura Linney). And to play the part, Linney underwent a makeover to look made-under. ”For me, there was no makeup allowed—none,” the actress told InStyle.com at the Toronto International Film Festival. “There was no color on my face, nothing. My character calls herself sort of part of the furniture, so she’s supposed to completely wash out, so I surrendered and I washed out. There’s really not an ounce of makeup on my face.“ The movie, set in the 1930s, also includes accurate and noteworthy period costumes curated by costume designer Dinah Collin. ”The clothing was really meticulously put together,” Linney said. “[Dinah] tried to find what she could in England because the whole movie was shot there, but then she went to L.A. and went through all of the rental houses and the back-lot houses of all the studios and she pulled all these authentic things. If they weren’t original pieces of clothing, they were copied to match what they’d found.” Click here to find out where the movie is playing near you.

There’s a new home-for-the-holidays movie in theaters today, The Fitzgerald Family Christmas, and it’s not what you’d expect. ”The film is based on the types of families I grew up with,” Ed Burns told InStyle.com at the Toronto International Film Festival of the Fitzgerald flick, which he stars in, wrote the screenplay for, and directed (busy guy!). His film tells the story of a grown-up brother and sister (played by Nashville‘s Connie Britton), who host their father for the holidays after he returns from being estranged for 20 years. With his triple responsibilities, Burns was able to inject a few personal elements into the story, like the Long Island setting. ”I knew that I wanted to shoot it in my old neighborhood, and we were able to find a location a block from where I actually grew up,” the 44-year-old said. And he made sure his cast members had input as well. ”The thing we did on this film that was very different was basically ask all the actors how their characters are going to dress,” Burns told InStyle.com. “My process with the actors has always been very inclusive, so they kind of dictated to me. And almost everyone brought all of their [own wardrobe],” Burns said.  “That’s how we put it together!” Check it out for yourself–click here to find out where the film is playing near you.

Here’s a film you’re going to want to see this Thanksgiving weekend: Silver Linings Playbook, starring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence, which hits theaters nationwide today. InStyle.com caught up with the pair—who play Pat, a recently released mental patient with bipolar disorder who is back living at home with his parents, and Tiffany, a mysterious girl he meets in a dance class—at the Toronto International Film Festival in September to chat about how their dance moves influenced their chemistry on screen. “It was the best way to get to know each other,” Lawrence told InStyle.com of her groove sessions with Cooper. “We both went through the fire together with this dance,” Cooper added. “We started just sweaty and not knowing each other, and had to touch each other’s sweaty armpits. And then we’re in front of Robert DeNiro and 500 other people actually performing the dance!” Though, that actually helped their relationship. “All we had was each other, and we just trusted each other,” he said. “It was the best.” But you can watch for yourself; click here to find out where to see the film near you.

After the incredible cult success of 1999′s Cruel Intentions—an adaption of 1988 film Dangerous Liaisons, starring Glenn Close, John Malkovich, and Michelle Pfeiffer, prepare for the next take on the dramatic tale. The most recent incarnation (out today!), aptly titled Dangerous Liaisons, features Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon‘s Zhang Ziyi as Du Fenyu, a bitter Shanghai socialite infatuated with her ex-boyfriend and out to ruin the life of a young woman. The plot is familiar to anyone who saw Sarah Michelle Gellar and Ryan Phillippe in Cruel Intentions, a fact Ziyi is more than aware of. “Everybody knows this story,” Zhang told InStyle.com at the Toronto International Film Festival. “We’re just making a different version of the famous book and the character. She lost her husband and she just closed her heart and she only lives with her loneliness. For me it was a very hard character to play.” Ziyi said her costumes helped her face the challenge of the role. “Costumes make up the whole character’s design,” she told InStyle.com of the film, which is set in the 1930s. “Women were very conservative then. They wore traditional Cheongsam [Chinese dresses], so for most of this movie I have a lot of them in different colors and patterns.” Click here to find out where the film is playing near you!

Today marks the release of the first-ever movie written by award-winning author Salman Rushdie. Midnight’s Children, adapted from his novel of the same name, was first released in 1981 and received the Booker Prize for Literature—the U.K. equivalent of the Pulitzer. The story revolves around two children (Saleem and Amina) who are swapped at birth within moments of India gaining independence from Great Britain in August of 1947. The film, directed by Oscar nominee Deepa Mehta, follow the pair as they grow up in a new country, unaware that they were switched. At the Toronto International Film Festival back in September, InStyle.com caught up with lead actor Satya Bhaba (Saleem), who discussed the challenges of making the movie as a British Indian man, for whom the story’s implications hit close to home. “In my family you don’t have a bar mitzvah—you read Midnight’s Children, and then you’re a man,” he told InStyle.com. “So I read this book when I was really young. It is really moving, just magical and beautiful. [And then one day] I’m sitting down with [Rushdie] in New York, talking about my favorite book ever, and about me potentially playing the lead. The whole thing has been surreal.” Bhaba sums up the message of the film in just a few words: “The heart of the movie is a coming-of-age story, and it’s about defining your own family,” he said. “The question is—are we who we are because we came from these people? Or are we who we are became we came to these people?” Midnight’s Children opens in select cities today—find out when it’s coming to a theater near you!
