...between the sexes has nowhere been greater than in romantic comedies. The men are about as useful as a pitcher of spit, while the women have careers and well-furnished apartments and vast freighters of wisdom. In Julianne Moore's next movie, Trust the Man, she plays a successful actress, while her husband has no remunerative employment. How does her real-life husband feel about being portrayed that way? You can ask him. He wrote the movie...
...matter how good an actress you are, it's tough to fake being sick when paparazzi have snapped you at a karaoke bar. The producers of LINDSAY LOHAN's film, Georgia Rule, have accused the young actress of malingering. In a letter delivered to Lohan's L.A. hotel and posted on the Smoking Gun website (gee, wonder who leaked that?), the CEO of Morgan Creek Productions said she was "a spoiled child" and "ongoing heavy partying is the real reason for your so called 'exhaustion.'" He threatened to seek damages from Lohan, 20, who plays an unruly teen...
...moisture in a woman's. The enveloping shadows reduce the visual information, isolate elements to which the audience's attention can be directed. In Raw Deal, Alton's closeups of Claire Trevor and Marsha Hunt manage to catch a cross of light in the left eye of each actress, and another glistening cross in their earrings.

In 1961, during a photo shoot to promote her role as Holly Golightly in the film Breakfast at Tiffany's, the actress was photographed wearing a Tiffany diamond-ribbon necklace. But this was no ordinary diamant??its centerpiece was the 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond, one of the largest yellow diamonds in the world. The gem, since reset in a brooch known as "Bird on a Rock," pictured, is itself now one of the biggest stars in "Bejewelled by Tiffany, 1837-1987." The exhibition?at the Gilbert Collection, Somerset...
DIED. June Allyson, 88, wholesome, gravel-voiced actress dubbed the "girl next door" for her frequent turns in the '40s and '50s as the loyal, adoring girlfriend or wife in such films as Two Girls and a Sailor, with Van Johnson, and The Glenn Miller Story, opposite Jimmy Stewart; in Ojai, Calif. Allyson was upbeat about her Hollywood reputation, but it doomed her efforts to take on grittier roles. The Shrike (1955), in which she played a harsh wife who drives her husband mad, was a flop. But she claimed she couldn't live up to the hype. "In real...
