lltv} Saving Grace: Get Ready for Grace's Final Showdown with God

At the beginning of Saving Grace's final season, Grace Hanadarko's secret is out.

For three seasons, the heavy-drinking and promiscuous Grace (Holly Hunter) has been under the watchful eye of her "last-chance" angel, Earl (Leon Rippy), who wants Grace to give her life over to God. After surviving a 12-story fall without a scratch in the Season 3 finale, Grace has her share of questions, including one she must ask herself: Does my life have a divine purpose?

"That fall puts Grace in brand-new terrain with questions that have now become demands," Hunter tells TVGuide.com. "Grace answers those demands in a really kind of an extreme way, which is how she normally confronts issues. Grace really goes on a journey, in many ways very much alone. The singularity of her journey very much takes shape in this last season."

Of course, Grace has never been prone to blind faith, and that will not change, creator and executive producer Nancy Miller says. "It's one thing to believe in something; it's another thing to act on it," she says. "She fell 12 stories and walked away without a scratch. That's just not possible. Now what do you do with that?"

In the premiere, that struggle leads Grace to church, where she plans on having it out with God once and for all. Instead, she meets Hut (Gordon MacDonald), a mysterious man who is obsessed with the darkness in the world.

"His involvement with Grace is quite intimate," Hunter says. "He is a force that she instinctively recognizes."

Miller says Hut's appearance is connected to Oklahoma City's past tragedy in a way that will be explored in the series' final three episodes, in which a dramatic event will completely change Grace's life. Hunter says the magnitude of the event and the series' end date opened up the show's creativity.

"I think it's been elevated to a new place — this is a new playing field that the show operates on in these last episodes," Hunter says. "I've always felt, from the beginning of the show, I wanted an end. I like knowing the end when I start. When I do a movie, I know the end. You gauge your character; the story can kind of take you. This has been gratifying to me to know an end because it allows me to be taken by the story a bit and there's something wonderful about it."

Miller says much of the final season is about whether Grace will follow Earl's advice. "The entire series, in a way, has been a love story between Grace and Earl, and that love story plays out and deepens," she says. "We find out even more of Earl's limitations. He is a messenger for God, humans have free will and there's only so much that he can do for Grace."

Still, Miller maintains that Grace's final choices will be characteristically unpredictable. "Grace is a character, I've found, that goes where she wants to go and I kind of follow her," Miller says. "Her unpredictability led us to places. It's not that we sat down and said, 'What unpredictable thing can Grace do?' It's that this is the thing this character has to do, so how do we do it?

"There are so many layers of each scene, and if you pay attention, you're going to see how... we wrap it all the way around from the pilot to our last episode," Miller says. "We bookend it. That's where we're headed, and it was tough to get there."

Saving Grace kicks off the first of three new episodes Monday at 10/9c on TNT. The final six episodes will air starting Monday, May 24.

Sada back to Kollywood in Pulivesham.!great

SadaActor RK is now producing and acting as hero in RK World’s Pulivesham which is being directed by P Vasu. The shooting for the film is currently going on in Chennai near Meenambakkam.


The film marks the return of actor Sada who is back after a long gap. Looking svelte and slim, the actor met media persons and spoke at length about her comeback of sorts. “I was busy in Hindi films with three projects lined up which is why I could not concentrate on Tamil films. I am also doing a Kannada film with Shivrajkumar. I always wanted to do a film in Tamil and when P Vasu offered me this role I grabbed it because I wanted to work with him. I had earlier missed many offers from him and I literally have cried becaue I could not take up those projects. So now I am really happy to be back.”


Sada plays a mysterious character with shades of grey also thrown in. Pulivesham also stars Karthik who plays a cop once again after his cop role in the forthcoming Maanja Velu. Says Karthik, “P Vasu is such a consummate director and no one can tell a story as well as he can. His drive and energy on the sets is amazing. He and I mutually admire each other and I feel he is like my brother and I feel great to work with such a legend.”


P Vasu is all praise for Karthik’s energy and zest. “When I heard Karthik was doing Mani Ratnam’s Raavan I thought of approaching him for this film. He was away for a small gap of time but now he is back and I feel he has taken back the place that he has left behind. I feel he is as youthful and talented as before and when his contemporaries like Venkatesh and Nagarjuna are still going strong he too can take the hero’s position he left behind. He has maintained his looks, physique and face despite the years. I have told him that he looks even better than before!”


The film also stars a new face Divya. P Vasu was impressed by RK’s interest in films and determination to make a mark in cinema. “He told me that the reach of cinema is astounding and I was really impressed by the way he explained his point to me. In fact I made the character based on the way he speaks and behaves himself.”


The film also stars Myilsamy, Ganja Karuppu and MS Bhasker apart from Mansur Ali Khan. Srikanth Deva has scored three out of five songs already. The film is about how characters wear masks in life and the truth lies to be discovered behind these masks. A good comedy with plenty of action and a strong screenplay and storyline is supposed to be the strength of this film.
