The Washington Post's Dan Zak gets a lengthy chat with Michelle Pfeiffer for Chéri. I should note that I have met and lunched with Dan so I knew this next bit of info was coming. "Pfans" are discussed though Michelle, ever the reluctant superstar, doesn't seem to know what they are. You mean she never checked out my "Pfandom" website in 1999? ;)

I don't know about you but I just lost some confidence on Matt Damon's chances of a lead actor nomination...
I liked the trailer but doesn't it feel too loose, too light?
Oh, God forbid for a movie to be devoid of pretentious Oscar wanking. As far as I'm concerned, the comedic touch is a huge plus for the movie. And Matt looks brilliant. I haven't been this excited for an acting performance based on a trailer since Milk.
Yes, I agree (I wasn't complaining, just expecting something different), but still I'm not sure...
Thanks for those links, I've been lol-ing with the one on Woody Allen and I crave for anything Pfeiffer related, so thanks again.
I loved picturing Pfeiffer laughing at the idea of having pfans, like trekkies. Though red dresses don't suit me I could use a whip ;) if there's a dress code required for pfans. Isn't this unawareness of our existence just another of the multiple reasons for pfandom-érie?
I agree with Jorge Rodrigues. It looks like it could be easily overshadowed by other actors witty heavy roles. It reminds me of burn after reading.
oops......I don't know how I mispelled that. I meant WITH not witty.
I compiled a list of 12 directors whose oeuvres I desire to see and Allen was at the top of the list, now after reading that article, I'm very unsure....
To anyone who cares, HAPPY CANADA DAY! :)
Nathaniel,
Have you heard about "The Kids are All Right" starring The Bening and Julianne Moorre as a same-sex couple?

Ann... i have heard but it requires it's own article. soon.
wayne do not let that article deter you. believe it or not that article i think is aimed at fans. I mean i LOVE Woody but his flaws are apparent you know? His runs from 77-86 and again from 92-94 are just so damn enjoyable and smart and funny and resonant.
Love the Woody Allen article. SO true, though.
Oh, "The Informant" is a comedy then. Scratching off that Oscar nod for Matt Damon in lead actor for this.
That Jane Fonda blog about MJ was sad to read, but she was so right. I can't imagine that he would have liked the idea of growing old and losing his pop star powers as it were.
Oh wow. It took me all day to realize my blog's one of the links...wow.
God, it's only taken like 12 years for "pfandom" to come up! Glad it finally did though it is somewhat disappointing, if not unsurprising, that Michelle was blissfully unaware of "us."
Ann-Margret as an Academy Award Winner? That sounds amazing to me. I definitely agree with "Let me entertain you"
1975 Best Actress line-up:
Isabelle Adjani (the story of Adele H.)
Ann-Margret (Tommy)
Louise Fletcher (One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest)
Carol Kane (Hester Street)
Romy Schneider (The most important thing: Love)
as my personal winner I would select Schneider...but regarding Oscar race I would choose Tommy's Nora over Fletcher anc (the cinephile alternative Adjani)...
