BFFs Timmy at the Oscar parties When it was announced that Saoirse Ronan was nominated for an Oscar for her performance in Little Women and that Timothee Chalamet would be presenting, the corner of the internet that lights up for their friendship (Joanna is one of them) was expecting that there’d be at least a By Lainey • Feb 11, 2020 12:39 pm
Assy Style Saoirse Ronan: Oscars Personal Worst (Duana) This is going to hurt. Well, for me. It’s going to hurt me. I am, of course, a huge fan of Saoirse Ronan. I think she’s skillful, clever, and nuanced as an actress, and I like watching her play the red carpet game. I’m just going to By Duana • Feb 10, 2020 03:51 pm
Show Your Work Podcast Show Your Work – Oscars Fool Us Again Edition We always planned to talk about the 2020 Oscar nominations on this week’s episode, since an Oscar nod obviously has a huge impact on the careers of anyone nominated. Instead, we wound up talking about how obvious the Academy’s blind spot is: since once again white men vastly By Duana • Jan 15, 2020 05:13 pm
Golden Globes 2020 Saoirse Ronan’s Globes Protest? Anyone who reads us knows I’m hopelessly biased about Saoirse Ronan. But with good reason - she’s charming, smart, and frequently makes amazing red carpet choices. In 2016 I called her Oscar dress ‘satisfying’, and I’m still really happy with that word choice. Then on top of By Duana • Jan 06, 2020 06:05 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Saoirse stands for Greta The Golden Globe nominations were announced yesterday. As you may have heard, there were some snubs. I know I mentioned this yesterday but When They See Us, Ava DuVernay’s series about the Exonerated Five, nominated for 16 Emmys, watched by 22 million accounts on Netflix, was completely shut out.

Movie Reviews and Previews Saoirse, Florence, Laura, Timmy…and Brad! This week on Show Your Work, Duana and I talked about Greta Gerwig’s Little Women and whether or not it would become the definitive movie version of the book. We’ve been leaving room for Little Women in the Oscar race and last night it screened at SAG-AFTRA to By Lainey • Oct 24, 2019 04:44 pm
Top Reads Saoirse and Timothee: one of two love stories You know how we’ve been having that “leave room for” conversation at this site the last couple of weeks about the Oscar race? Sarah started it with Sam Mendes’s 1917, and then there’s Queen & Slim, and of course Bombshell, and we must also leave room for By Lainey • Oct 17, 2019 04:09 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Little Women Grows Up With Us Wowwwww. Clearly Lainey and I have made a mistake on Show Your Work, because we have yet to talk about the importance of having A Muse, and clearly it is working out for Greta Gerwig. Have you seen this trailer? Little Women has been highly anticipated and highly debated, because By Duana • Aug 14, 2019 11:50 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Greta Gerwig’s Little Women looks “hella tight” Forgive the Lady Bird quote, but the comparisons are inevitable. Lady Bird is woven into Vanity Fair’s exclusive first look at Greta Gerwig’s Little Women, which was published this morning. The sneak peek at her follow-up to Lady Bird includes 11 new production and behind-the-scenes stills, and an By Joanna • Jun 19, 2019 12:09 pm
Met Gala 2019 Saoirse Ronan & Rachel Brosnahan: Subtle Camp Blondes “Theme! Theme theme THEME!” That’s the refrain on Twitter, and honestly it’s often the refrain on our text threads – but at the same time, part of pulling off what is essentially a costume is knowing what works on you. Saoirse Ronan has consistently killed in her wardrobe choices By Duana • May 07, 2019 03:59 am
Saoirse Ronan Vanity Fair: the 25th Hollywood Issue This has been an issue fraught with drama in the past.

Golden Globes 2019 Best friends Saoirse Ronan and Timothee Chalamet Lainey has crowned Timothee Chalamet and Lily-Rose Depp as the reigning It Couple of Young Hollywood. I’m not trying to mess with that. I’m OK with Saoirse Ronan and Timothee Chalamet just being best friends forever. They worked together on Lady Bird, of course, and now they’re By Kathleen • Jan 07, 2019 09:46 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie in Mary Queen of Scots Mary Queen of Scots is a slightly anachronistic and completely ahistorical telling of the feud between Mary, Queen of Scots—the lack of proper punctuation in the title drives me nuts—and Queen Elizabeth I. Take this as even less of a history lesson than The Favourite, as Mary Queen By Sarah • Dec 13, 2018 10:19 am
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Saoirse Ronan's Outfit of the Week This is what I love about great style – it often happens by turning your opinions against you. If you showed me this colour, for example, for a red carpet look, I wouldn’t be impressed, especially not in combination with this material. Normally, I hate this material. 99% of the By Lainey • Dec 07, 2018 12:33 pm
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Saoirse’s Governors white I love a slinky turtleneck dress. But it’s tricky. A turtleneck can pull. And depending on the material, all that pulling can look weird in the light. Saoirse Ronan’s is white. And despite some fit issues, which you can clearly see, it’s a strong look.
