...wander the lobby area where the media is set up, I see a familiar face under siege from some paparazzi. It is the delightful Bridget Fonda. She is wearing a flesh-colored silky dress and is gamely responding to all the requests from this very motley crew. "Turn left Bridget!" "Look this way, darlin'." Then it turns ugly. A photographer decides that he would like his picture taken with Fonda. She politely accedes to his request. Pretty soon all the snappers want their 1/30th of a second with her. This is fan behavior, quite inappropriate for professional photographers. I gaze...
...astonishment, this works, and I escort Miss Fonda from the evil clutches of the paparazzi back into the ballroom. She is most grateful and we have a pleasant chat, after which we are joined by Gary Busey who shares more of what he calls his Busey-isms. Bridget (we're old pals after five minutes' conversation) knows Gary and recounts some of her favorite Gary Busey acronyms. BIBLE, it transpires, stands for something about "Information Before Leaving Earth." In the din of the ballroom I can't make out the first word beginning with B. I worry that...
...Martin: You?re the second person to think I?m too critical of Ray. Helen Fielding (author of "Bridget Jones?s Diary") said, "You?re a little rough on yourself."

First off, I can't believe that any one could conceivably make a film this bad. I don't care how much money you have to waste, and I especially don't care that you have people like Minnie Driver and Bridget Wilson willing to flaunt their cleavages for the camera. Sally Field, in her directorial debut, has failed miserably. Sprinkled liberally with all the worst clichŽs possible, Beautiful, no question about it, is a horrendously ugly film...
...felt a nerve tweak in the back of my neck from the massive cringe I suffered through the rest of the movie. After being crowned Miss Illinois, Mona tries to outdo Miss Texas (Bridget Wilson) who was hospitalized for giving marrow to her foster sister in meaningless altruism. One particular scene in which she carts a pregnant woman to the hospital in a shopping cart full of marshmallows (no, it doesn't make more sense when you actually see it) had me gawking in dumbfounded amazement at the brazen act of courage which it must have taken for the producers...
