Bad Style Up in the Air Opens tomorrow. You must go see. Up in the Air has scored a 92% rating among Top Critics on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s considered a major contender during awards season, and this is George Clooney’s best performance. I screened it with a theatre full of journalists at TIFF. They By Lainey • Dec 03, 2009 06:10 am
Gorgessity Well hello Saoirse It’s been, what, 3 years since Atonement? She’s like a new person. And her face has changed too, non? I used to think Saoirse Ronan looked exactly like Chloe Sevigny. It’s becoming less and less, now almost not at all. When we were prepping for the Oscars By Lainey • Nov 25, 2009 02:07 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Natalie & Tobey, no Jakey At the Brothers premiere in New York last night… Notably absent: Jake Gyllenhaal. They will be pushing Tobey hard for his performance in this movie during awards season. Perhaps scaling back Jakey’s involvement is strategic. There’s been very little buzz so far about Brothers but momentum is starting By Lainey • Nov 23, 2009 11:43 am
Twilight New Moon review SPOILERS AHEAD. MANY SPOILERS. Click here to revisit my Twilight review. For the Twi-Hard who will blindly love it, who will hear no word against it, who will hate the haters while overusing exclamation points, New Moon is for you. If however you are capable of critical thinking…well… By Lainey • Nov 19, 2009 05:31 am
Gorgessity Elles chantent Three Nine ladies were photographed at airports today after a few days of promotion in New York. Penelope Cruz and Marion Cotillard were at JFK, Kate Hudson was at LAX…presumably heading to LA for more press? Want to see Nine SO badly. As you know, all the ladies sing By Lainey • Nov 18, 2009 09:14 am
Girlcrushes Sandy & The Blind Side I love football movies. Especially when they’re corny. But Laura laughed at me last week when I told her I wanted to see The Blind Side. You’re probably laughing at me for wanting to see The Blind Side. But Michael Oher’s story is irresistible. And while I By Lainey • Nov 17, 2009 08:27 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Viggo on the backburner? Viggo Mortsensen was at the NY premiere of The Road last night. The Road was supposed to be an Oscar contender and still has an outside shot but since it’s been languishing on the shelf for a year, and with muted buzz going into the season, The Road and By Lainey • Nov 17, 2009 02:06 am
Gorgessity Can`t wait can`t wait can`t wait Laura is prepping for the Nine junket. We’ve been watching footage all day. She’s sending Ben. Pout. Something we learned in research: Katie Holmes was rumoured to have auditioned for it and lost out to Penelope Cruz. Please. Like she could have held up against these ladies.

BFFs GOOPy & the Freeze! Two ice queens share the screen, and one of them plays a woman turned man. Will anyone care? Will anyone see? You know I love my Gwyneth but she can’t sell a movie unless RDJ is in it. Nicole Kidman’s box office poison is equally lethal. Now the By Lainey • Nov 09, 2009 02:03 am
Style Cam & James Marsden Good on James Marsden. Finally. Because he’s almost always the other guy. Except with Katherine Heigl. He was the guy for her in 27 Dresses. Which is almost worse than being the other guy. In The Box however James is Cameron’s guy. It’s a thriller about a By Lainey • Nov 05, 2009 06:32 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Drew & Posh & DeNiro At the premiere of Everybody’s Fine last night, Drew Barrymore stepped out in a Victoria Beckham and looked like a bridesmaid. Right? Hate that length. It cuts her off in the matron area. Everybody’s Fine stars Robert DeNiro has a father who crosses the country to be with By Lainey • Nov 04, 2009 05:48 am
Quiveration Double JGL Isn’t this a moist Monday morning. First Brad, Becks in a bit, and this is Joseph Gordon-Levitt with his brother the other day throwing wish coins into a water fountain. It’s not relevant to the story, but I am not attracted to the brother. JGL on the By Lainey • Oct 26, 2009 02:57 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Anna’s campaign kicks off in London For months I’ve been yapping about this girl – Anna Kendrick’s performance in Up In The Air is so impressive, she’s already being buzzed about as a possible Best Supporting Actress nominee, she’s been named one of the Top 25 to watch, and she’ll receive the By Lainey • Oct 19, 2009 11:31 am
Girly Throw Downs Colin vs Clooney? It’s very, very, VERY early in the race so of course it could all change. But Colin Firth’s performance in A Single Man has already won him the Best Actor Award at the Venice Film Festival and the buzz continues to build through the first part of the By Lainey • Oct 19, 2009 10:01 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Hi Viggo! I know many of you are fans. So here’s Viggo Mortensen in Venice today at the film festival to promote The Road. The Road is also coming to TIFF.

Quiveration Begging for Ewan Am currently kissing Laura’s ass. Every day. Laura is running our TIFF programme. Which means she makes the call on who gets assigned for which interviews/carpets/screenings. Normally I try to stay off the junket board until I’m told. It can get tedious going from room to By Lainey • Aug 28, 2009 04:07 am
