Kate Winslet tops most desired celeb body poll
7 hours ago | Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news »
UK women most admire the celebrity body of Kate Winslet, 34, a survey says. The Oscar-winning actress has a curvy shape that does not fit the super-skinny ideal in Hollywood. And she has openly dissed as much in the past, complaining about her image being touched up. Winslet, who recently starred in The Reader and Revolutionary Road, came out slightly ahead of Kelly Brook, a TV presenter and model with a similar curvy figure. Two thousand women were polled by Slimming World. Halle Berry was third followed by Cheryl Cole, Beyonce, Megan Fox, and Lily Allen. Reed-thin Victoria Beckham and Kate Moss came in at the bottom of the poll, as did tabloid queen Katie Price. »

40. United 93 (2006)
It takes guts to make a movie about the four terrorists that took over United Flight 93 and plagued us Americans with a day we won’t ever forget. No doubt that Paul Greengrass would have to climb an uphill battle to get this movie the way he wanted it to look but he does the film justice, more importantly the victims on this flight get supreme recognition. He makes it impossible for us to take our eyes off of the screen. The camera style throws us unto the plane of the teary eyed, enraged passengers whose emotions are unexplainable. Its heart-wrenching seeing the passengers come as one and do what they have to do, risking their lives to save »

Poll: Which Nancy Meyers movie house would you want to live in?
28 December 2009 9:16 AM, PST | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
If you left It's Complicated thinking you'd like to own the house Meryl Streep's character lives in, you're not alone. It's a common reaction to any film directed and/or written by Nancy Meyers. Personally, I'm still hoping to end up in a Vermont home similar to Diane Keaton's in 1987's Baby Boom (and with a vet) and vacation annually at Keaton's Hamptons beach house in Something's Gotta Give and Kate Winslet's English cottage in The Holiday. In a recent must-read New York Times Magazine profile, Meyers, who believes a home and its furnishings can develop a character, »

Live the Movie - The Holiday
28 December 2009 6:05 AM, PST | Boxwish.com | See recent BoxWish news »
With romantic onscreen pairings such as Cameron Diaz and Jude Law, Kate Winslet and Jack Black, 2006’s The Holiday is the perfect way to banish any winter blues. It tells the story of two unlucky-in-love women, La workaholic Amanda (Diaz) and unassuming Surrey girl, Iris (Winslet) who swap houses for the Christmas holidays and manage to find love on opposite sides of the pond. Taken in its most literal meaning, their holiday is a break from their jobs and their homes, but in a wider sense it is a holiday from themselves. They are completely out of their comfort zones – on foreign soil, surrounded by strangers and given the time and space to address some of the mental and emotional baggage cluttering their lives. That both achieve their happy endings isn’t surprising in a feel-good rom-com, but with such gutsy commitment to change and love it is what they deserve. »
Kaleidoscope 2009: Important Movie Events (Part 1/4)
28 December 2009 2:19 AM, PST | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »
2009 is drawing to a close. Although the year isn't marked with any crippling writers' strike or a shocking death of a Hollywood young talent like Heath Ledger, it does have a story of its own. Kate Winslet winning her first two Golden Globes, "The Twilight Saga's New Moon" logo being unveiled and Mickey Rourke finally aboard "Iron Man 2" are only a few events shaping up the film industry during the year's first three months. Here, AceShowbiz presents a look at the occurrences happening in movie biz over the first quarter.
January
January is highlighted with one significant news that sent many of the "Twilight" fans sighing for relief. After weeks of uncertainty, the question whether or not Taylor Lautner reprises his Jacob Black role in sequel "The Twilight Saga's New Moon" had been met with a satisfying answer. On January 8, director Chris Weitz confirmed that the teen actor will »

It’s Complicated
26 December 2009 3:06 AM, PST | FilmShaft.com | See recent FilmShaft.com news »
It’s fair to say that rom-coms aren’t generally my thing. I’ve seen my share of them, and on the whole, I’m never usually impressed. In my experience, they are usually overly romantic and lack “actual” comedy. Writer/director Nancy Meyers has made a very successful career out of the rom-com genre. Films such as What Women Want, Something’s Gotta Give and The Holiday have all been lucrative. Her films are sweet and non-offensive. She is so successful at what she does that major stars all want a piece of the action. Jack Nicholson, Mel Gibson, Jude Law and Kate Winslet among others have jumped on the Nancy Meyers bandwagon. So as the old saying goes: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”.
With her latest film she has brought together the always brilliant Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin in a film »

Bazmann’s Christmas Address
25 December 2009 7:00 AM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
It’s been a great year for the British film industry. It kicked off with the British invasion of the Oscars, with notable wins for Kate Winslet, and Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire. The huge amount of British Actors plying their trade successfully in Hollywood continued to grow, with Scot Gerard Butler particularly in demand with parts in Gamer, The Ugly Truth and Law Abiding Citizen.
British filmmakers have been responsible for some of the more interesting films this year. Duncan Jone’s Moon was a brilliant yet under appreciated sci-fi drama. Fish Tank and Harry Brown lead the way for low budget drama. Terry Gilliam’s The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus finally found a distributor. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince became the highest grossing British movie of all time.
British film festivals Raindance and the BFI London Film Festival saw record attendances, and showcased some great films from home, »

Penguins, Nicole Kidman and Narnia – Paul Howlett picks his film highlights
Christmas Eve
(Tim Johnson, Karey Kirkpatrick, 2006) 4.25pm, BBC1
A DreamWorks animated adventure in which Rj, the cynical racoon (laconically voiced by Bruce Willis) teaches a burrowful of innocent woodland animals to forage off the waste of an encroaching housing estate rather than rely on boring old natural food, before inevitably seeing the error of his ways. Plenty of good slapstick fun for kids and cine-literate gags for adults, although it all seems a bit glib compared to Shrek and co.
(Tim Burton, Mike Johnson, 2005) 6pm, ITV1
Life, in Burton's typically weird and ghoulish fantasy, is a dull, grey affair: death is much more colourful and fun, as young Victor (voiced by Johnny Depp) discovers when he is whisked into the underworld by the maggoty Corpse Bride (Helena Bonham Carter). Trouble is, he's in love »
