  Too bad the creator of that movie is a serial predator/child molester.

  I was hoping he and Naomi Watts reunited to chat at the Golden Globes the other night. I haven’t seen any photos or videos so I don’t know if they did but at least she got to be in the room to see him win.

Weird hair colour.
Hollywood’s puppets have become so irrelevant, they made the whole world cringes.
Nobody cares anymore, go heal your npd, and find a real job.

Surprised there are so few films here that he talks about, he’s had a lot of other interesting roles over the years I would have loved to hear his insights on. Midnight in Paris, Predators, Splice, and of course Peaky Blinders

Finally some King Kong crumbs! The movie still holds up today and deserves way more recognition.

I love his performance in The Brutalist, he brings so much depth and even a bit of humour to a serious film.

He’s very funny as Dali in his one scene in Midnight in Paris, wish they’d mentioned The Grand Budapest Hotel as well!

LAVISHLY DEMURE

Las Vegas Aces superstar A’ja Wilson shows us what’s inside her Labubu-laden Louis Vuitton bag. The WNBA MVP always carries two pairs of glasses, depending on what the occasion calls for, and pulls out her favorite snack, a bag of Sour Patch Kids. The most meaningful item in A’ja’s bag is her late grandmother’s coin purse, which she now uses to carry her ID cards. “I don’t put coins in it because my heart’s in it.”
