...Lewis sings "Lonely Teardrops," Bello takes on "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)." Because Braugher's character is supposed to be a great vocalist, his singing is mostly overdubbed by professional belter Arnold McCuller. But Paltrow sings her own material with a sweet blandness; her voice is like a dab of grape jelly on white bread. Paltrow's rendition of "Crusin'" isn't going to replace Smokey Robinson's or D'Angelo's versions anytime this century (and we've just begun this century), but she holds your attention...
...a.k.a. Mission: Impossible agent Ethan Hunt. In the film, she is a knock-out international jewel thief, Nyah Hall, with perfectly coifed hair and fabulous clothes. In real life, the toes on her bare feet are unpolished, her hair is pulled back in a simple ponytail, and not a dab of makeup is visible. She is, of course, still stunning in her bareness. It's Hollywood, after all. They rarely hire ugly people around here...
