| (EZ-Tracks) - Adding the title of auteur to her long list of accomplishments, Madonna recently offered up her first film, “Filth and Wisdom,” at the Berlin Film Festival, according to an Associated Press report. The movie follows three young housemates in London who try to finance their dreams while working in unfulfilling jobs. “One of the themes that I explore in the film is struggle, and if I look back to the beginning of my career I can recall those moments of struggle like it was yesterday," Madonna said at a news conference alongside her cast. "There are aspects of Holly, Juliette and AK's struggle that I could relate to completely, and I could access that memory and put it into the story." The singer/actress, who turns 50 this year, went on to talk about “the cold harsh reality” of landing in New York as an aspiring singer/actress only to find that there were thousands of others competing to make the same dream come true. The film's soundtrack is strongly influenced by Hutz, whose own band appears and who, Madonna said, "kept turning me on to new music" — but it also includes pop tunes like the singer's own "Erotica." | ||||||||||||
