Obsession potential!!!!

One of my favourite shows on tv Greys Anatomy, has just got even better. The show never really had 'eye candy' for me although McDreamy & McSteamy were the best looking dudes on there. That was until just recently a new addition was added to the cast. Jesse Williams, who plays Dr Jackson Avery is *coughs* quite handsome......OK HE'S HOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!!!! Like a lot of people I'm sure, I did a double take, and thought to myself (or probably said out loud!) Who is that!!!?? But besides being good looking he's a good actor too, and the presence of him and the other new additions in the show was quite a breath of fresh air actually. And hopefully he will be around for a while, because it seems like he and Christina could have something brewing between them since their 'kiss'.







He's also in Rihanna's new video!

The Obsession Continues!

Y!!

CAN'T WAIT!!

So it looks a little Benjamin Button-ish, but who cares! Of course there are two reasons why I'll watch this movie. 1, because I love my little indie films! 2, because it stars the ridiculously gorgeous Jared Leto who I'd watch in anything..... Heck I would even watch him reading the Yellow Pages!




Y!!

So....about that Twilight movie you've all been talking about........!

HOOT HOOT, BEEP BEEP!!!!!!

These are the noises of the train/bus/bandwagon or any other vehicle which carries around Twilight fans...Room for one more?! YES, I have jumped on, and succumbed to the increasing peer-pressure (mainly from Zainab and Rachie-Pie) and my own damn curiosity about watching the Twilight film. Now I was too lazy/impatient to read the book. So I skipped straight to the film, and what a film it was. Does this make me a 'Fanpire' now?!?!

Now we're not talking about ground breaking cinema and original, innovative story lines, but who gives a damn? It's a sweet love story with vampires, and no matter how old you are, you can never get tired of a good ol' love story. I even think it is my new 'romantic' film obsession. Now this has only happened twice before. Once with Titanic, and then again with the Notebook. But it is safe to say that this film is more than worthy to take the crown, and I see why it has stolen the hearts of millions around the world!

Now I'll admit that I was being a movie snob for quite a while and didn't think that the movie deserved any attention from me. But a dreary Sunday evening made me think otherwise, and after putting it on hold and watching nearly every possible movie that I have been trying to catch up on, meant that I couldn't put it off any longer.

For approximately 3/4 of the film I wanted to be Bella.....BADLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's that bloomin' Pattinson. With his broody sultry good looks, and just the sheer magnetic energy between the two characters was just too much, I think that the chemistry between the two protagonists is what made that movie what it was. It could have easily have been very saccharine, with annoying teenagers running around the screen, but it wasn't. In fact I would even compare it to the (HOLY!!!!!!)show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, in a way that they were able to take a normal surrounding of a high school with young characters, and give it a sense of darkness and maturity that was very alluring(I'm all about mature films!!).

As soon as I finished watching the film, I hit up the web to clue myself up on all my Twilight info, Wikipedia, Youtube the lot! And now I can't wait to watch New Moon, which is coming out very soon. The trailer was literally too much for me! As I was watching it with baited breath I could see that the character played by Taylor Lautner (Wolf boy, and his stupid wig, which he has now got rid of!!!) is going to be a lot more prevalent in this sequel, and by the looks of it he's trying to break up the perfect romance between Bella and Edward! All I'm saying is that 'Jacob' needs to BTFU!!!!!!! and leave these lovebirds to it!

All I have left to say is role on November 20th !!!!!! :O



Y!!

NEVER AGAIN.....PLEASE!!!

This year I have seen two films that absolutely made me want to rip my eyeballs out half way through them. Now I rarely see crap films, because lets face it, I have AWESOME movie taste and I can spot a flop from a mile off!!! So why did you watch these two horrendous films then, I hear you ask? BECAUSE I HAD TOO!!!!

OK, so I wasn't under duress with a gun to my head, and the lives of my loved ones weren't threatened, but I am a good friend, and on the rare occasion when a mate asks (demands!) to see a particular film, I am more than happy (whilst weary!)to oblige them.

Now the first rubbish one which I saw a few weeks ago was Final Destination 3D. Now there is no point even discussing this because I know that the title and the sequels before it speak for themselves.

But the unspeakable (but type-able!) mess that was the GAMER, with the 300 star Gerard Butler, was definitely on my top 5 WORST MOVIES I HAVE EVER WASTED MY LIFE SEEING LIST! I'm not even going to put up a picture, because that would be a form of promotion that this heap of mess doesn't deserve.

Now I only saw parts of the trailer, and what I did see it seemed to be an action, blow 'em up type of thing, and it had no elements whatsoever of what actually appeared in the film, besides Butler (and his Drew Barrymore-esque slanted mouth!) and some fighting scenes.

Besides Butler, the movie starred Kyra Sedgewick (Kevin Bacon's wifey), Ludacris, Michael C Hall, and whatshisface from White Chicks (urgh!!). Oh and former hottie Milo Ventigmilia, from Heroes, who is soooooooooooo not hot now after that whole, pvc/perv scene.

I don't really know how to describe it beside saying it was a futuristic, cyber-punk, twisted, action yarn, dystopian, S & M , mish-mash, one-scene musical..........of a film

There were a couple of credible actors that I can't believe actually read the script and thought 'mmmh!! this is bound to be a hit'! WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!!

And to receive the official stamp of my disapproval, I actually have to be knocked out to truly despise a film. Anyone who knows me will tell you that even if I am not enjoying a film I will still get my moneys worth and attempt to stay awake. But for the cinematic ventures that have absolutely no hope of grabbing my interest.....siesta time!!!!

Y!!!!

Just watched

I just watched 3 movies in the last 24hrs (ok so employment sucks, but at least I can catch up on my movie game!), which I enjoyed quite a bit. Three totally different movies but equally enjoyable. The documentary 'Tyson', about the former heavyweight champion of the worlds 'rocky' life. 'Let the Right One In', a Swedish horror/Drama which I specifically remember being really enthusiastic about seeing, but my 'besties' still saw it without me ............................. they must have forgotten (me being the insane movie lover out of the 3 of us?!?!). Then lastly 'The Dark Knight', YES I KNOW I'M LATE!! But I remember being on holiday at the time it was out, and I just never got around to it.



I rarely watch documentary films, the odd one on Channel 4, but seldom on film. Although now to think of it, I have watched nearly all of Michael Moores films, mainly because they are usually highly publicised, and controversial. Anyway I'd been meaning to watch this Tyson flick, because I had seen the trailer and it looked quite interesting, and because I'm a huge fan of the Rocky movies(how is that a reason you ask? boxing of course!!).

So the man has a reputation of being CRAZY!!!!!!!!!! Went to jail for RAPE, BIT a chunk of a fellow boxers EAR, tattooed the side of his FACE, BEAT his ex-wife Robin Givens like she was his sparing partner,and the list goes on.

Anywho the film is really eye-opening, and I came out of it kind of understanding why he is so, for the lack of a better word, crazy! He has had one heck of a life, and anyone coming from where he's from, and done what he's done is bound to end up like something resembling the character of Mike Tyson.




I love the occasional foreign film, and this was no exception, although reading the subtitles is a bother sometimes! (I watched it wishing I knew more in Swedish besides 'Ja' so I didn't have to keep taking my eyes off the screen, and missing little nuances). The film is basically a vampire movie about the relationship between a 12 year-old boy and a '12' year old vampire girl/boy!! Now I say girl/boy because my eyes couldn't help but be geeky, and look the movie up on Wiki (half way through), only to read that the book version elaborates more on the vampire girl/boy being castrated hundreds of years ago!!!! I know!!!! There were a few hints that I probably wouldn't have caught onto about the vamps sex if I didn't read the article. This then made me watch the rest of the film thinking, 'aawww he's gay, and he doesn't know it!', which is quite distracting might I add (I'll have to try and not do that again). Anyway the movie is quite cool, very eerie/creepy at times, but also slow at others, overall it's still a nice watch.





Now this movie had been soooooo hyped that there was a point that I didn't even want to watch it anymore. But once that feeling had ceased, I couldn't wait to see this instalment of the 'new' Batmans. And I had a lot of hope, especially after watching one of Schumacher's terrible versions 'Batman Forever' (which no Batman could be worse than). Now as I started watching it, I realised I could barely remember 'Batman Begins', the one prior to this, although I did recall the villain was the 'Scarecrow' and Katie Holmes was in it, but that was about it. Well in this one, it appears they have changed Katie with Maggie Gyllenhaal, Cillian Murphy (Mr Nice Eyes) has a cameo as the Scarecrow, and the new baddie as we all know is the Joker. Now seeing as I can barely remember the previous one, i'd say that this is definitely the best film in the series so far. And of course Heath Ledger was on point as the Joker, completely unrecognisable. Maggie Gylenhaal was just blaaah, the compulsory damsel in distress. Aaron Eckhart was also great as Harvey Dent/Two Face, and the ending was good because it left a hole to be filled by another movie. Although the film was great, it was quite long, and I did have a moment where I had to go back about 5 minutes because I had dozed off (which also led to my laptop dropping on the floor:O (note to self: NEVER DO THAT AGAIN)!! Oh and I did find Christian Bale ANNOYING!! Why has he got that stupid gravely 'I need to be serious because i'm Batman' voice. What to disguise his identity? Well it's totally distracting, previous Batman's Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, and George Clooney didn't do it so why does he? I think Christian Bale just annoys me now anyway since his diva strop.


Y!!

Don't you hate it when you .....................

........Can't get a song/tune/riff out of your head!!! 'NA NA NA NA HEYYYY GOODBYE'!! Well today's one of those annoying days when everywhere I turn, to every channel I change, the same bloomin' songs are on! Is someone trying to tell me something?!

Now you probably know that they are all bitin' the 60's song 'Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye' by Paul Lenka. Even Bananarama decided to bring the song back around in the 80's . Watch the Lenka vid below, lol @ what they're wearing?!


Now you've probably watched about 20 seconds of that (I watched about 10, just 2 make sure I had the right vid!!!) Watch the little copycats below, and get this annoyingly catchy tune in your head!!







I think the 3 recent revivals of this song is enough for a life time!


Y!!

2 of My Besties + Sunny (breezy day) + £800 Camera+ Canal Side = GOOD TIMES!

The other day me & my girls decided to take some pics next to the canal in east/north?? LDN!! Then my girl Nadia worked her magic on the Mac and some photoshop and came up with these!!













Y!!

Trailers!

2009 has almost come to and end, and I can't believe its gone so quick!!! Here are a couple of trailers for some movies that will be out later this year/ early next year!! I must say a lot of creepy horror/sci fi/post-apocalyptic movies.......can't wait!!!













Y!!

NO NO NO!!! That is definitely not the one!!!

Now I was a Whitney fan like a lot of the worlds population, and yes I did kinda desert her when she went through her 'crack' phase!! But those 80's and 90's classics can never be duplicated, so I didn't see the point in hoping for a miracle. Nonetheless I was still interested to hear what she was gonna come back with!!

Watch the vid below!!!




OMG!!Yes that is the 'diva' the 'one and only' the 'queen', sounding like she's got tonsillitis or like she had a really rough time the night before!!! That was cringe worthy beyond measure, and I was hoping she would pick it up towards the end and give us 'the note!!' but noooooooo,nothing, I'm sooooo embarrassed for her! Falling from glory is never a pretty sight, as this car crash of a performance demonstrates, and at least when Mariah had her meltdown, she still had her vocals in tact and came back on point!!

I mean c'mon, the back-up singers, and backing track were more together than she was!! CRACK IS WACKKKKKK!!!! GET IT TOGETHER WHIT!!

Y!!

UNEMPLOYMENT SUCKS!!

I dont usually post 'fashiony' type things, but this time i'll make an exception! Well being unemployed is only fun for the first coupla of weeks, but now I realise there are things I want that I can't have and why? Because I dont have a dime to my name!!! :(









Y!!

Avatar??

So the latest James Cameron movie (Titanic, Terminator), has been talked about to death over the last couple of years, and whether or not it will or will not be made. Another thing that has been a topic of discussion is the 'new' and 'groundreaking' technology he is using. Well based on this trailer it looks like a whole lot of CGI to me. I don't see what all the hype is about yet, and apparently tickets are already being pre-ordered!!!!! What the fudge!! People need to calm down, it's starting to feel like a Star Wars type mania is starting up again! Maybe the fact that it's going to be in 3-D means all it's greatness will be seen once your sitting in the cinema.



Y!!

FIRE!!!!

So bringing up 'My So-Called Life' in my previous post, awoke the fact that I had completely forgotten about Jared Leto! I think the last thing I remember seeing him in was the movie Panic Room (the one with Jodie Foster), and maybe a couple of his bands vids on MTV2!! Anyway, I'll just dedicate this post to him in all his glory!










Now this pic below has just spoiled the point of this whole thing!!

Why is it whilst browsing the net, looking for hot pics of my 'husband' to-be, did I stumble across bimbo of the century AKA Paris Hilton locking lips with Jared!! Don't know whats more disappointing, the fact that she's actually kissing him (urgh!) or the fact that he stooped so low (in my opinion) to the likes of an heiress socialite!! WHY JARED WHY!!!





Y!!

Remember the days of........

Just finished reading some of my mates blogs, and through a blog of a blog I stumbled across a post by Sweet and Colourful about the show Clarissa on Nickleodeon!! REMEMBER THAT!!!

Then inevitably a heap load of shows started flooding back to my memory, that I remember watching as a kid!!!


My So-Called Life


Very few remember this, maybe because it started around the early/mid 90's!!! All I have to say is JARED LETO!! He must have been my first tv crush, man was fit!!!!! Now hes gone all emo/rock star, with his band 30 Seconds To Mars!! But when he's not wearing guy liner, and dying his hair black...........dreamy!!

Moesha
'MO-2-the-E-2-the...'!! Loved it, I remember thinking when I was younger that it was a crappy show, then I grew up a little and my taste changed. So I dont think I watched it from day dot, but I do remember watching it up until it finished.

Sister Sister
Tia was my favourite twin for some reason!! LOL @ Marques Houston

Taina

Remember watching the odd show, but before I could really get into it, it was off the air??

Keenan and Kel
No matter how annoying and predictable they were, they always made me watch day after day!! Sometimes I just wanted to bitch slap Kel,urrgh!

Are You Afraid of the Dark

My fave out of the two 'scary' shows!! Maybe the opening credits had something to do with it.

Goosbumps
Still good but not as scary as the previous!

The Secret World of Alex Mack
I can still remmeber the last episode, always wanted to have her power! cool!

Sabrina
Again a massive favourite, got a little dodgy towards the end though!??

Y!!

SEPTMBER!!

So its september!!! wooooo hooooo, which means 3 weeks till my birthday!! and as usual i've been slacking on the blog duties! :(

So in the last couple of months i've graduated, gone on holiday to Morocco, left my job, currently looking for another one, blah blah blah!!!!

The US Open has officially started, so I need to start cathching up with that, plus i've seen a couple of decent movies in the last few weeks which I will chat about later.

Because of my slacker ways i'm thinking of bringing another blogger in, to fill in the big ol' spaces I keep leaving, and to hopefully bring something new!!! So let me get recruiting!!

And heres a classic, which is very appropriate for today I think!!!



Y!!

Hometown Glory!!

Why is it i was never feeling Adele, then all of a sudden i hear a song i've heard a million times, but in a different way!! Whatever, I know i'm late, but still, this song is lovely!



Y!!

Cheesy Fun!

So I went to watch The Orphan the other day, and the only reason why I went to see it was because of the actors! Now those who know me know that I'm not really into the 'modren' horror film, which are always really cheesy, and knock-offs of their predecessors. So as I saw the films trailer and Vera Farmiga (The Departed, Running Scared), and Peter Sarsgaard (Boys Don't Cry, Jarhead) popped up, I thought 'hmmmm', maybe this could be different!

So I was both wrong and right, right because the two lead actors performances were on point as expected, but wrong because the movie was cheesy and predictable, although these things aren't necessarilly a bad thing! So I don't want to give the whole plot away, but a creepy kid horror movie is always good thing, check it out!

Y!!

Glourious Work

With great movies in his portfolio such as Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, the Kill Bill volumes, as well as the opinion dividing Death Proof, (which I loved a lot more than it's Grindhouse counterpart!) The genius that is Quentin Tarantino has done it again!!!! There is no doubt that Tarantino is one of the most talented and prolific directors in cinematic history. The latest release Inglorious Basterds, has been in the pipeline for sometime, with numerous script re-writes, unconfirmed actors, who are on and off the project. But it is finally here!! Now I had already resigned to the fact that I wasn't going to see this film in the cinema, mainly because my 'besties' (My best friends!) usually don't see what I call 'proper' films. Once in a while I'll be able to slip one in, in the guise of a superhero movie (Watchmen), or a horror movie (Drag Me To Hell), but this time was not the case(as proclaimed by my friends in a previous screening of another film when the IB trailer came on 'nah mate that looks dry!). So I knew I would have to watch it some other way! Anywho another friend came to the rescue and I was able to see the film, and thank the lord she did!

The main stand out performances for me were Brad Pitt, who is obviously a great actor, but again like with all his roles he is totally believable, and hilarious as the character Aldo Raine (especially the scene where they try to sneak in to the cinema using their awful Italian accents). Another great performance was from the guy who played Hans Landa AKA The Jew Hunter. Throughout the film his merciless, cruel and evil ways were portrayed so well that there is already talks of an Oscar nomination.

The enthusiastic director uses his identifiable quirks and techniques (the film is composed of numerous chapters, and the soundtrack is taken from other movies)to make this a great Tarantino movie. He was recently quoted as saying that he believes this film is his 'masterpiece'. This statement therefore made me believe before going to see it, that I was going to watch something mind blowing and exceptional. But although it was really, really, really good, it wasn't an 'oh my god' feeling at the end, or even an overwhelming sense that it was his best work. So in that sense I do see what a lot of the film critics are talking about. Although I would definitely say it's on a par with Kill Bill. Plus I still have Reservoir Dogs (I know I'm late!!) and Jackie Brown to see, so maybe either one of those could be my Tarantino masterpiece. But its safe to say that this is another accomplishment that QT can add to his list.

I recently watched two classic Brad Pitt movies, which I think are my favourites!!
Legends of the Fall and Interview with a Vampire. Buy them on Amazon if you can, for peanuts!!!


Take a look at his appearance on Ross a few weeks ago!




Y!!

Classic!!

I've been hearing this song a lot lately!! Completely forgot about The Verve, and of course everyone knows Bittersweet Symphony which is great, but this has to be my favourite song from them! Makes me a little emotional! :(

LISBOA 2009!!!!!

I have just come back from an 8 day holiday in Portugal with Miss Rachie-Pie @ Leopard Print and Lace, and Miss Hood and Proper! It was soooooo much fun!!! Just being out of London and being somewhere totally different was just amazing! I did think that NY was one of my favourite Holidays, but because it was so similar to London means that i didnt really experience anything 'new'!! Like Morocco and Nigeria, Portugal has lovely weather, beaches, culture, food and people!! and I hope that i'll get to visit there again soon!! It was also a cheap place (cheaper than LDN anyway) to live!! As per usual I over spent, on food and clothes, which means there were numerous trips to a Millenium cashpoint!!!

Aaaaaaaah Lisboa!!

Y!

Drag Me to Hell????

Long time....no post!! Well I have been caught up in a whirlwind of assignments and trying to finish uni, having amazing vacays in Portugal/NYC, which means I have been slacking on my blogging duties. But seeing as this is my form of release, which none of my friends would care to listen to for long enough, and neither would I be selfish enough to subject them to a rant about films, means that I had to do a 'small' post about something.

Director Sam Raimi's work ranges from his groundbreaking cult horror classics, to his success in superhero mega stardom, then back again to his roots in a film I saw yesterday Drag Me To Hell.

Now this was much anticipated by me, just because I knew what Raimi had done before and although I'm not a huge fan of the Evil Dead films, I thought he would come along and show all these slasher/gorey filmmaker newbies like James Wan (Saw), and Eli Roth (Hostel) how its supposed to be done, but also bring something new to the game!!

I loved the Spiderman films, and always thought it good that a guy from a low-budget horror background, could make such great blockbuster movies. Anywho, I went in seeing the film not consciously expecting too much, but just to be scared stupid. But within the first 5 minutes I remember why I disliked the Evil Dead films (which I don't know why slipped out of my memory). The gory slapstick horror genre, never particularly 'got me going' and it didn't this time! With my bff jumping and screaming every 5 mins next to me, and her brother on the other side shouting 'oh my days, this is peng!' (East end slang for, 'oh my, this film is very good!), I realised that maybe I was subconsciously expecting too much, and in the end Raimi gave audiences what they should have been expecting when going in to see one of his horror movies, not a psychological horror that I personally would enjoy & which would make me sleep with one eye open. But something with 'big moments' intended to scare (but it was so obvious when they were coming), basically a simple minded horror film, or as the London Paper described it, a 'horror film for dummies'.

Although I wasn't thrilled, the film knew not to take itself too seriously,which was evident in the laughter of the audience, the odd person taking the piss and shouting out 'behind you', to an old lady drooling on your face, a dodgy Asian psychic, projectile nose bleeds!! Not my cup of tea!!!

Now to think of it, the only one who seemed out of sorts in the movie was the boyfriend played by Justin Long (loved Jeepers Creepers), I cant think of one moment when he was part of a gag, or had a metaphorical sly wink to the camera, it was almost as if he was in a separate film!


Y!

Robin Thicke

This tune is soooooo lovely! I've fallen back in love in Mr Thicke!

What the 'Fudge' Was That About!!!

I went to see the much anticipated 'Watchmen' the other day. This adaptation of the much loved graphic novel by Alan Moore, has been talked about for some time now, and been in the pipeline for many years. Now although I am not a comic book geek, I have enjoyed the graphic novels that have recently been brought to the big screen, in the form of '300' and my absolute favourite in this genre 'Sin City'! But this film has to be the absolute WORST film made in this genre, and definitely the most disappointing movie of 2009 so far! OMG! Where to start!! From Dr Manhattan's blue 'willy' flying about all over the screen, to the slow and sometimes dreary plot, to the soft-core porn scenes?

Although there are countless negatives that I could keep listing, I will say on a positive note that the film was beautifully shot! The film does well to convey an authentic film noir atmosphere, and the idea of the characters living in an alternate 1985, was also very good, spotting the famous people, and well known political leaders was quite fun for a know-it-all like me! The action scenes which I did expect to be outstanding, were just that. The whole slow motion thing was cool to see, I just wish there were more. If it were a person, the trailer would have to be put on trial for perjury! It's all misleading and false-truths! How can they make such a bad film look so brilliant? Other than all this, director Zack Snyder butchers the film! Actually now to think of it, I'm trying to understand why I have so much contempt for this film? I don't think its the film at all, maybe it's the comic book as a whole that wasn't floatin' my boat!

So although I wish I could get back the 150 odd minutes wasted on this film, at least it has set the bar of what a crap comic book movie is like and no matter how much CGI and money is thrown at a project, it still can go ridiculously wrong. Writer and Director, Terry Gilliam, who is famous for his work on 'Monty Python' and Twelve Monkeys', described the project whilst in development as 'Unfilmable', and I think he was write, this is one comic book to film project that should have been left alone!



Y!

OSCARS!!!

So I'm about 4 days late, but you know, just coming back from New York, lost luggage, being in a comatose state for a while, all meant that i forgot to discuss my annual, non-guilty pleasure, the Academy Awards! Although i missed the live televised version on Sunday night, i quickly paid the Sky bill (with my overdrawn debit card) which always seems to switch off when my mum goes away, and watched the repeat the day after on sky movies, as well as the Fashion Police on E! and a repeat of the red carpet on the same channel!

First i have to get this off my chest!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE MICKEY ROURKE DIDN'T WIN BEST ACTOR!!! WHY!!! He has swept every awards show clean so far this year, it doesn't make sense, he was a shoe in!! I guess people were right when they said he pissed off too many members of the academy all those years ago... urgh Sean Penn... if he wasn't so self-righteous i wouldn't have minded him winning!

Anyway back to the clothes!

Angelina Jolie was stunning as usual, I'm so happy to see her finally wearing something figure hugging and something youthfull as opposed to a few of her recent choices which have been dowdy and only been somewhat acceptable because she was wearing them.!

plus her emerald earrings absolutely made that ensemble.....gorgeous!



Another person who always looks on point is Natalie Portman. Now i'm not a big fan of wearing pink, but this gown was so pretty and the detail on the bodice was sooooo nice that even i would put aside my dislike for pink and wear this dress.



One of the big winners of the night Kate Winslet looked as beautiful as always although this is not my favourite dress of hers this season. Her SAG award gown definitely stood out and suited her much better, her dress at the Oscars made her look much older than she is!



At the Oscars!



At the Screen Actors Guild Awards!

Tilda Swinton is one of the great actresses our country has produced, and although she may not have reached the commercial heights of Winslet, she definitely has the acting chops to match her. Swinton is known for wearing very Avant Garde outfits straight off the runway, and i think its fair to say her style is one that few people understand, and because of this she is a regular on worst dressed lists!

I admit it, even I have been one to laugh and point, as this androgynous and sometimes awkward looking actress strides down the red carpet.




But this time was different, Tilda looked alright! Wearing a Lanvin dress, or two piece (i'm not sure which), Swinton looked very put together, whilst still keeping her own style!



Lastly on the men's side, which doesn't really leave much to talk about other than there being the usual sea of black tuxes and the odd shiny lapel, Mickey Rourke is one that has divided fashion critics, but cannot be knocked for always staying true to himself. This time he showed up in a white suit which definitely made him stand out, with his usual bits n bobs hanging off him, pins, broaches, chains,and his staple pointy shoe!
