Maple Leaf Ryan Gosling & a man’s suit I learned a lot of about men’s suits yesterday. We’re going to a really swanky wedding tonight and Jacek didn’t have one.

Dumbass Kirsten’s Melancholia, Charlotte’s bump The last time Lars Von Trier came to Cannes, a lot of movie people stormed out the theatre, expressing disgust with Antichrist. He reacted as he does.
