Hobbiteer Emma Watson’s New Day

 

It’s the pixie-cut hair and flawless skin that give her away. Emma Watson is dressed unobtrusively in a cotton flower-print French Connection dress and beige sandals, but she is unmistakable. Fans have accosted her five times in the past half hour alone. Today is the actress’s twenty-first birthday, and she is determined to spend it as she pleases—which means a leisurely mid-morning latte followed by a stroll through the Joan Miró exhibition at London’s Tate Modern.

Emma ignores the stares and continues to chat animatedly about Miró’s willingness to take risks with his art. An avid painter herself—“I love it and have a need to do it”—she can talk eloquently about every picture on the wall. Her favorite is The Farm, a painting once owned by Ernest Hemingway that brought the artist his first taste of success outside Spain. What she admires, Emma tells me, is that Miró was both a draftsman and a painter, unafraid to combine these talents to create something that was simultaneously surreal and hyperreal

Water for Elephants

Reese Witherspoon and Robert Pattinson star in the film (based on Sara Gruen’s best-selling novel), which was styled by costume designer Jaqueline West, who did a lot of research to create accurate period pieces. “You just don’t find 1930s circus costumes on the rack of any costume house,” she said of the type of wardrobe needed for the drama–which centers around a traveling circus.

Broadway gets ‘Rocked’

Chris Rock’s new Broadway play, “The Motherf**ker With the Hat” debuted Monday night

The 46-year-old comedian has starred in over 35 films and hosted the Academy Awards, but he said he was excited to see how this experience would hone his acting skills.

“In a weird way, this is like the acting school I never got to go to,” said Rock, “And I’m very interested in seeing how this affects the rest of my work, ‘Cause in a weird way it feels like I knew nothing. It’s like, I almost wanna buy back all my movies. It’s like, ‘I’m sorry, America! I didn’t know what I was doing.’”

April is the Month of Photography in Los Angeles, so we decided we wanted to have a little party with a one-evening-only, pop-up gallery experience. We’ve put together a curated collection of amazing photography by Times photojournalists in a fantastic and unconventional setting. Join us, meet the staff, talk photography, like us, blog about the event, bring lots of your friends. It’s something new for us that we really want to share with you. And it’s the same night as Downtown Art Walk, so let’s make an evening out of it.

 

Vogue Italia‘s April issue — and we would have never recognized the actress, what with the super blunt haircut we thought we could put off circa 1993 and all. But the new ‘do goes swimmingly with the labels she’s shilling and the cleavage she’s showing.

In a behind-the-scenes interview that you can watch here, Alba told the glossy, “My own style is probably a mixture of high and low. I’m definitely into sort of layering and I like mystery so I don’t put it all out there. I play dress up for a living — for photo shoots and for working and movies or whatnot — I sort of wear more revealing things that show my body. But in life I like things that have a little bit more mystery. I like things that are elegant and chic, but then a little rock-and-roll.”

“I have always been very aware of my looks – she continues – and I have worked hard to work on them and keep them”. Strict diets and athletic training have always been part of her agenda. But since she has had a daughter, her attitude has changed. “After the pregnancy, I felt liberated. I learnt how to accept my body and I give less importance to my appearance”, says the actress, now expecting her second child due to be born in the summer.

Meet Jack Nicholson’s Actress Daughter!

Before joining the cast of Soul Surfer (in theaters April 8), Lorraine Nicholson sought some A-list acting advice from her dad, Jack Nicholson.

“He’s my mentor,” she told UsMagazine.com at Wednesday’s L.A. premiere. “I’m going into the family business because we’re so close and he’s such an inspiration. I admire him so much.”

PHOTOS: Famous star families

Still, the 20-year-old actress takes what her Oscar-winning father says with a grain of salt.

“My grandma always told my father, ‘Don’t toot your own horn,’ which in Nicholson speak means, ‘Be modest and let your work speak for yourself,'” she said. “That’s sort of what I applied to not only my acting work, but my every day work.”

During the debut photoshoot of Victoria’s Secret new swimwear collection, South African model Candice Swanepoel’s noticeably skinny frame evoked much speculation and criticism.

Candice, however, looked much fuller during the VS Secret swimsuit catalogue which was released in the month of January.

In response to the speculations, the 22-year old model maintains that she is “healthy and happy” and that there is no reason for worry.

 

3D Sex & Zen: Extreme Ecstasy’ Makes the Cut for Singapore

A-List Flick: “3D Sex and Zen”

A little less sex was just what the censor ordered for Singapore.

HONG KONG — The makers of 3D Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy are presenting Singapore with a heavily self-censored release with more than 18 minutes of the completed film cut, executive producer Stephen Shiu Jr. told The Hollywood Reporter. The film is repped by Shiu’s own One Dollar Distribution at Filmart.

Obliging the demand for the Singapore distributor to follow the strict censorship and conservative culture in there, executive producer Shiu and director Christopher Sun have sliced off scenes of group sex, oral sex, sadomasochism, and those linking religion and sex to assemble a tamer, 110-minute version for the audience aged 21 or above in the territory.

“We have to trim the major parts of a scene of a female character seducing a monk,” said Shiu, adding “no physical contact is allowed between a woman and a person in a religious order.  We’re told that any portrayal of religion and portrayal of sex must be separate.” The same version will be released in India.

Three minutes of footage depicting group sex has been left on the cutting floor for the South Korean edition.

The film has also captured the attention of the rest of the world.

The $3 million 3D erotica promises to push the boundaries of public decency and sensory stimulation with “edge of the bed” action in stereoscopic 3D. Rights have been sold to Singapore, India, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Italy, France, Peru, and Russia. The enthusiastic international demand serves as compensation for not having the lucrative Chinese market – the filmmakers had ruled out any possibility of bringing the film into China from the outset.

The Hong Kong theatrical version of the period sex romp is set and approved for release on April 14 at 118 minutes, but a full 129-minute director’s cut has been made. The producers will decide whether to release it in Hong Kong cinemas depending on public demand and local censors, or on DVD; European distributors can choose between the two versions. Advance tickets to the film in Hong Kong went on sale in mid-March, with more than 5,000 tickets already sold in Hong Kong; Shui said he has received orders of up to 100,000 tickets from Chinese mainland tourists coming to Hong Kong during the film’s release.

3D Sex and Zen is a reimagining of the 1991 Category III hit Sex and Zen, produced by Shiu’s father Stephen Shiu Sr., which broke records with more than HK$20 million ($2.6 million) at the box office and ushered in an era of Category III erotica in the 1990s. Shiu Sr. produced and wrote the script for the 3D update.

As executive producer, Shui Jr. described the film, in all its versions, as “bolder and more graphic than 9 1?2 Weeks, but not to the level of Caligula.” He also believed 3D is the perfect format for erotica: “From the first time I came to know this genre, I’ve hoped I could watch it in 3D.”

The film was shot with RED digital 4K cameras and postproduction was done by Hong Kong’s Digital Magic, which was previously involved in Hong Kong’s first 3D horror film, Universe’s Child’s Eye 3D. The film is now pending approval from IMAX to release as IMAX 3D. Shiu said the company is concerned about the subject matter and genre, which has never been associated with IMAX before.

Originally touted as the world’s first stereoscopic 3D erotica at its announcement in January 2009, 3D Sex and Zen was beaten to the screen by South Korea’s Natali from director Joo Kyung-jung. That film was announced in June 2010, filmed from last May through September, and released last October. Shiu was unreserved in his fury for being pre-empted: “I think that is despicable behavior. The makers of Natali rushed their production to steal our thunder. But at the end, the audience voted with their feet. That film was a failure everywhere it was released.”

In My Opinion: Natalie Portman’s Top Six Films

From ‘The Professional’ to ‘Black Swan’, where do the films fall?

Published: Thursday, April 7th 2011 at 10:17 AM

Yesterday I posted a picture of Jean Reno and Natalie Portman from The Professional, simply because I stumbled across the photo about a week or two ago and felt it fit a slight lull in content. Then a few people began ranking and discussing Portman’s other films, which got me to thinking about what my favorite Portman films were and how I would rank them.

For the sake of this argument, Portman’s film career started very early so this also means there were a few notable films she was in that I don’t necessarily consider “Natalie Portman films”. If I had considered them both, Heat and Mars Attacks! would have made this list, but her contribution to both isn’t enough to warrant placement, though I tried hard to make a case for Heat.

Also, before we get to the six I chose as my favorite Portman films, I should say I haven’t seen Anywhere But Here, Where the Heart Is, True, Domino One, Free Zone, Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium or The Other Woman. So that’s why this isn’t a top ten. I didn’t want to resort to Brothers or The Other Boleyn Girl just because I hadn’t seen enough of her movies. So, I stopped where I wanted to and six became the magic number.

Let’s get to it.

Beautiful Girls (1996)
Beautiful Girls
I should note that yesterday was the first time I had ever seen this movie. I’d heard it was good for many years and finally had enough reason to make sure I watched it, and I thank all those that told me I should, it was well worth it.I also debated with this one the same way I debated Heat and Mars Attacks!, and while Portman’s role in this film isn’t huge by any means, it’s much larger and far more consequential than it is in those other two films so it felt like an easy decision. On top of that, it was a good performance and a great role and a film that’s worthy of some kind of 15th anniversary release this year though with Miramax in the dumper I’m not counting on it.
Black Swan (2010)
Black Swan
I think it’s too early to really tell where Black Swan falls in relation to Portman’s career. It is definitely top five material, but, considering the films I have at spots 1 thru 3, the highest I think this film will ever be able to get for me is #4.Portman’s performance is spot-on in a role she now seems like the only actress who could pull it off. The film itself is equally impressive as an examination of the will and drive of a performance artist seeking perfection. I still remember staring at the screen for the duration of the credits after seeing it at the Toronto International Film Festival last September, it’s a film I was glad to have seen in the theater as I’m not sure it will ever have the same effect at home.

 

Garden State (2004)
Garden State
Here we have the film that probably contains Portman’s “cutest” performance. There is very little not to like about Portman as Sam, the soft-helmet wearing neighborhood cutie. In fact, this film would probably rank a little higher if it wasn’t so chock-full of cute, indie moments. I love this movie every time I watch it, but it is also one that sort of sticks with you for a long time, like a soft piece of caramel wedges in your teeth. It’s a film I can watch once a year and enjoy, but I need that 365-day separation before I’m ready for another bite.Thinking about this film again also made me wonder just what the hell happened to Zach Braff. After this film he had a string of acting busts and none of this directorial follow-ups came to fruition. Too bad, this film shows some serious promise.
V for Vendetta (2006)
V for Vendetta
If I wasn’t taking Portman’s performances into consideration V for Vendetta would be at #1, simply because it is my “favorite” film Portman is in, but I’d say she is about only 25% of the reason for that. I think Portman is great in this film, but I think I love the ideas in this film more than anything else. I love Hugo Weaving’s performance and how much he was able to emote simply with his voice as he has to hide his face behind a mask for the duration. But more than that, I love the dialogue and all the credit there goes to Alan Moore.

 

Closer (2004)
Closer
In terms of Natalie’s post-teenage roles, I think her performance in Closer is her best. It’s the film she should have won an Oscar for, even as much as Cate Blanchett may have embodied Katharine Hepburn in The Aviator, Portman had the better performance and the film hinged on it. Beyond that, I also love this film, it’s sexy, sultry, dirty, emotional and damaging. It forces you to feel something be it disgust, empathy or guilt by association. I’d also equate it to Garden State in that it’s a film I can’t watch on a regular basis, but I could play this one in the background on a loop just to hear Patrick Marber’s fantastic dialogue performed at the highest level.
Leon: The Professional (1994)
Leon: The Professional
If we’re going to talk Portman performances The Professional is at the top of the list. Because if you like any of Portman’s latter performances you can look back to this one film and see hints of everything she’s done since from her wide smile, her angular glare and her tear-soaked sobs.Last night I watched Beautiful Girls, The Professional and V for Vendetta to prepare for this write-up and there wasn’t a thing from those two other films that wasn’t visible in this one performance.Performance aside, this is just one hell of a film and one you’d probably also find at or near the top of my list should I ever decide to rank the films of Gary Oldman, Jean Reno or Luc Besson. It’s a film that’s hard to take your eyes off of thanks to the powerful acting and unforgiving narrative.

Four years after Britney Spears’ breakdown, she’s again promoting a new album, Femme Fatale, out Tuesday, though it’s far from clear she’s fully recovered. But industry sources tell Jacob Bernstein that won’t hurt her career.
