Read between the lines of the interview, and it’s easy to spot control issues, especially when she’s like, “You CAN’T ...” or “You’d BETTER ...” If I were the director of course I'd want accuracy, but at the same time it's like, who's running this show?

It’s just so weird because for certain period films the costumes go from film to film all the time. I know this bc I waste way too much time reading the trivia section of IMDb when I’m watching a movie. And if you watch, say, Pride & Prejudice with Keira Knightley, they expressly say there that certain dresses or hats…

So not even for extras, the costumes from Dangerous Liaisons or Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette weren’t available for rental? As much as I want to watch this season mainly for the clothes, I am casting a skeptical eye at “nothing was available.”

I’d go a step further than this, bc I do agree that it’s unfair to ask someone who doesn’t live in New York about the subway - though he shouldn’t have made his experience sound otherwise, that was too easy to trip up. But I’d love to ask any one of them how much their last heating bill was, or what their co-pay is…

Excellent use of shade in the inclusion of the word “bizarrely” by the Times ...

Thank you. Cannot stand her. The only thing she excels at is grating on your nerves.

I’d be down for Alec Baldwin as Big only if he were young Alec Baldwin; current Alec would be a tad too creepy as Carrie’s soulmate.

Why wasn’t this story shouted from the hilltops in the days leading up to the Michigan primary?!?

I’m not a kid person. Just not. So take it for what it is when I say that I had a co-worker who used to bring her 4-year-old into the office quite a bit, and I just fucking hated it. Kid would run around, turn up at people’s desks asking questions, and she’d also parade the kid around to “visit” people. Because…

This thread is a fantastic form of birth control, thank you! Slept late, soon headed out for day drinking with friends. Enjoy your Sunday!

Her book can’t just be called Martha Stewart Weddings, can it? Shouldn’t it be Vol. LCLXVVIIII by now?

Lanvin actually showed the collection on Thursday, just FYI.

That $2,700 jacket looks like something you’d buy in a Wal-Mart in Daytona Beach, FL, and mainly bc you didn’t pack the right clothes for Spring Break and it got chilly one night and you don’t want to invest a lot of money in a jacket you’ll never wear again so you figure OK, I’ll be funny and ironic.

Gotta admit, I didn’t have high hopes for this - so many reasons: not a Wiig fan, remakes never work, etc - but it looks funny. Sign me up.

I thought we had decided this was temporary for a film. Is it permanent? Did I miss a memo?

I work with someone who wanted to send a gift to the owner of a company who also is a celebrity. Having no idea how to get in touch with this person, I called the main number for their office and explained what I wanted to do, and that I needed some additional info before sending the gift (mainly a couple of personal…

Accommodate. Please fix.

Which is which?

Actually, the fact that Trump owns (probably really just manages) a hotel on the Strip doesn’t have anothing to do with his mystifying popularity in Nevada. His employees hate him because he treats them poorly and refuses to negotiate with them. The Trump Hotel, meanwhile, is far from successful. Anytime I’ve been…

Yeah, it's not all his fault, but again, as I pointed out elsewhere here, I don't think he's mature enough to have the presence of mind to do that. He needs another 10 years to hopefully turn into a stand-up guy who's really ready to be part of an adult relationship. Hopefully the reality-TV cycle doesn't ruin him…
