Early ,'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Anybody else remember the opaque white glass mugs from McDonalds that had a sun face on them? Probably 70s.
I have no idea where that memory came from. They were in the irregular (read: donated) dishes stock up at the Blue Mesa observatory housing and they just popped into my head. And now I'm being flooded with memories and smells and sounds.
if leading men can have "interesting" faces as long as they can act, leading ladies should be able to as well.
No arguments here. Make no mistake - my white-hot burning loathing for RZ is entirely based on her atrocious acting. I didn't hate her face until she decided to give up eating.
I have to admit, I think RZ was great in Bridget Jones. That sort of blithely cluelessness worked in that movie.
Yeah, she worked my last nerve in Cuba Gooding Jr. Dances Around Naked and Shouts Catchphrases While Tom Cruise Looks On Hungrily, but I actually thought she was the best thing about the Bridget Jones movies. Which is not an insignificant compliment when those movies featured Jim Broadbent, Colin Firth, and Shirely Henderson.
I thought RZ was lovely in Jerry Macguire -- very soft and natural and pretty. I don't know what happened after that.
I honestly have no beef with her acting, and I liked her very much in Chicago and Nurse Betty and Bridget Jones, but she looks so hard and weird and kind of bitter now. And, you know, squinty.
My take on RZ is she's a pleasant actress, I like a lot of her films. She's not a beauty, but she's cute. I just wish she stopped trying to do glamorous because I don't think it suits her. I wish she'd stick to charming and cute.
Oy. Such a long work day for me. So wanting to embrace my inner lazy.
Skipping lots and lots (oh, I wish I didn't skip the dresses-talk. That's my favorite part of any ceremony award, reading the Buffistas dresses-talk), to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Gadget_Girl's birthday.
Happy birthday! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
I can't BELIEVE you're still talking about the Oscars!
Anyway, it would take a lot of lousy acting to reverse my fondness for RZ because I first encountered her in The Whole Wide World which is SUCH an excellent movie.

I'm thinking of one with broader and shorter leaves.
Philodendron?
