..or why not just scream for an epidural? Fuck the asking part.

I always thought Nicole Krauss was the more talented of the two (but quieter about it). I had no idea he left her for a Portman obsession ughgghgh. (PS - why am I back in the grays? Sad.)

I wonder if any of this was provoked by that hit job on Renee Zellwegger in Variety last week by Owen Glob-erman, or whatever his shitty name is.

Jia you are such a good writer. And from the current cover of the New Yorker it seems like maybe they are woke bae, so it’s a great place to go now, and good luck to you!

Exactly. But the worst part of this is his concern trolling. He’s hiding his disdain for Renee’s (beautifully) aging face behind a pretend-righteous-LEAVE-HER-ALONE! fake fucking facade of misogyny. I think Variety shuffled the article away somewhere as of late today, though I might be wrong. What an ass. What a…

This is great, thank you. I was so horrified by this article that I posted two furious comments on Variety. But INTERESTINGLY, the article seems to have been hidden away by the editors as of late today.

She seems like a funny nice person. But for all her ‘Buddhist’ references, she clearly has made A LOT OF MONEY, which she seems to spend on anything her heart desires. Cool house though.

^Seconded. JESUS.

Thank you for this. Totally made my day.

Yes! Both from Ireland. I don’t know why she spoke as if all she does is stand behind her man and cheer, she’s had a successful television career on her own. Also, must say, I work in the business and have had to work, more often than I wish to count, with spouses of successful professionals. They are terrified of…

Love most of the characters. I was specific about Margaery. Love Brienne the most though (Sansa a close second).

I’m not getting all the Margaery love on this board! She was manipulative and smirky. That actress has made a fortune with that smirk. Wish it would stop.

I feel like SJP is not appealing at all when she plays bitter. Those horrible, HORRIBLE SATC movies didn’t work for a whole lot of reasons, but one of the many was that she was just so unlikeable, after so many seasons on television being incredibly funny and warm. She seems like a hilarious person in real life. Shows…

Lauren, I hope you’ll ask this question of someone older than you, and preferably not white, so that you can get some kind of understanding, which you evidently lack, of Muhammad Ali’s place in the world, particularly what he did for the self-image of black children growing up during his time as an athlete. He changed…

Yes.

I agree. And we should call out Bobby Finger for making this headline news. (Newspapers misprint ages all the time, but Bobby, why did you find this of SUCH IMPORTANCE that you repeated the error as if it mattered? And told every Jezebel reader that Robbie is not the age she actually is? J’accuse, Bobby Finger!)

Agree. Very mixed reviews but lots of love for Ruth Negga. I haven’t seen the film but have to say, the trailer scene feels manipulative to me. And I’ve not seen any reviews by anyone of color. The muted tone of the piece might be too whitewashed (pun intended). As someone in a mixed-raced marriage, I’m very curious…

Two documentaries, I believe. Jeff Nichols based his film on one of them.

I mean to reply to you but replied just below, to IAMRU2. :)

I work in the business, too. No one asks my age and I don’t offer it — but pretty soon I’m heading into major PR interviews and I honestly don’t know what to do. Because, as a woman in the movie business (and it doesn’t matter if you’re not an actress, ANY woman) if my true age becomes known I’ll be discarded as an…
