Cinematical on Susan Sarandon's next picture. Although I find it more than a little sloppy weird that they talk about the casting and the mother/daughter angle of the story and still fail to mention that Eva Amurri is Susan Sarandon's daughter in real life. Helloooo.

Radio Allegro for those of you who've asked, I won't be on the Radio Allegro podcast weekly anymore. I just had too much on my plate... but I will be a featured guest when I can manage. They currently have podcasts up on the art of the mashup and NYC dance party Bootie as well as a political discussion on the 2008 candidates. Episodes coming soon for the TONY awards and the summer movies and I hope to chat on both.

You don't need an excuse to post a picture of Jude...though these days he's getting a little skeevy

Hi Nathaniel - I was not quite sure where to leave my comment, so I just decided to tack it on to your last post. The Witches review mentions Anjelica Huston's performance in The Grifters that should have awarded her the Best Actress Oscar for that year instead of Kathy Bates. I couldn't agree with you more. I think it is one of the best ever leading actress performances I have ever seen. I think her performance is nuanced and powerful. Ms. Huston really proved that she is one of the best (I have to say that I also love her in Prizzi's Honor, Manhatten Murder Mystery, Crimes and Misdemeanors, The Crossing Guard, and Enemies: A Love Story). I suppose Academy members had their own reasons for choosing Ms. Bates, an unconventional actress in a showy piece, but the histrionics were too much for me.

rural --he is looking a little worn around the edges but it's just a new kind of oldersexy for him. he's always so pretty.

shaun --thanks! i do actually enjoy Bates performance but the conception of the piece and the music and a bunch of other things are helping the performance along... Huston's just feels like the actors brilliance funnelled into a challenging role.

my 2 cents at least.

I dunno...I guess it's all the nanny sex and ridiculous scarves that are turning me off to him

He looks delicious in the tux on the Cannes red carpet. When he fixes his hair and wears clothes that didn't belong to a hobo three days prior he still looks amazing.
