Movie Reviews and Previews Eddie Redmayne looks PHENOMENAL in The Danish Girl The Theory of Everything was so calculated and mercenary in its intentions it might as well have been titled GIVE US OSCARS NOW PLEASE.

Chinese Squawking Chicken Emma & Andrew go for lunch Emma Stone’s been shooting La La Land with Ryan Gosling. And there have been all kinds of rumours that she and Ryan are going to happen.

Movie Reviews and Previews Greta Gerwig in Mistress America I don’t really get Greta Gerwig. She’s not untalented, but she doesn’t really rock my face off, either.
