THE HORIWOOD TOP TEN – THUR 10.14.10
Shia LaBeouf was having a bad day. He threw his coffee on a paparazzi, like he was a celebrity tot living in a fish bowl on a high chair. Which, big action movies aside, Shia at times is. Poor guy. Can’t a man have a coffee in peace? But seriously, Shia has every 13 year-olds attention, which quite frankly is what Hollywood is about – half the time. And Marion Cotillard is looking like Katy Perry in the va-vroooom chis chis department today. That pic below.

CHRIS NOLAN’S INCEPTION SCRIPT’S TIMELINE SHUFFLE: LEONARDO DICAPRIO AND KEN WATANABE ARE AT THE CENTER OF HOLLYWOOD FILMMAKING
Chris Nolan‘s ability to go back to his beginnings of Momento styled flashbacks, flashforwards and fiddling with Hollywood’s holy grail of a scripts ‘timeline’, fused with high action, like The Dark Knight box office success, has got Hollywoood in a tail spin, this weekend.
It’s clear that Nolan wants his Oscar, he’s like an auteur with his distinctly ‘different’ approach. He’s picked Leonardo DiCaprio to be the face of his brilliance. Thankfully Ken Watanabe is at the center of Hollywood too, in Inception‘s casting line up. Go Ken. More Asians and Asian-Americans in Hollywood films needed. America is changing.
It has to be said, that already I’m kind of bored with every Tom, Dick, Harry, Aunt Mary and their wannabe filmmaker or a film critic dog, commenting on Nolan’s filmmaking messages, when it comes to ‘dream sequences’ and their ‘meanings’ in this film.
It’s like rehashed Freud and Jung, critical theory lectures from college, without an original thought of analysis from most critics, spewing out across supposedly respected sites of news and entertainment news in America. I can’t believe many of these people are actually paid journalists or arts critics in the land of the brave and free. It’s like, grow an original set of creative brain cells to do some worthy arts and entertainment analysis with. Lol!
Anyway, here’s one of the better ones, A.O Scott and his take on Nolan’s allusive ‘mind altering’ cerebral filmmaking motifs–which to be honest, goes back to messing with Hollywood filmmaker’s ‘holy’ (or ‘tapu’ as we’d say back in New Zealand) measuring stick of the film narratives timeline structure and how this is always didactically used in Hollywood. Go here to read A.O.
To really get Nolan’s script, as this film hinges on this (Leo and Marion Cottilard‘s eye candy aside), you need to think of a pack of cards. They are all in order, all the cards (pictures, scenes needed to make the film) Nolan already put in the pack, but then for a distinct point of difference, you shuffle the pack (of movie scenes).
The shuffle determines a ‘new’ kind of card game, then you just make a film with the shuffle. Everyone thinks you’re brilliant. And for having the confidence to just mix it up and back that methodology, as an artist, Nolan is. More Courage in America needed.

MARION COTILLARD NEEDS TO EAT A BUCKET OF KFC
Now you see her, now you don’t. Unless Citizen K has done the big photoshop skinny up make-over on Oscar winner, Marion Cotillard this girl could do with some KFC therapy.
I’m kidding. The French would probably pass out trying to eat the Colonel’s classic cuisine. But I still love it!

MARION COTILLARD KEEPS ABREAST OF FRANCE’S FIRST COUPLE INFIDELITY RUMORS
In the wake of rumors that France’s first couple are swingers into indfidelity, which they have denied, French Oscar winner, Marion Cotillard had topless thoughts of her own, but thankfully… Marion thought better of the idea.

THE CAST OF NINE CAN VOGUE TOO FOR KATE HUDSON’S OSCAR
What a line up, Nicole Kidman, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz and Kate Hudson–all girls who star in the movie Nine with Daniel Day Lewis– work their magic for Vogue.
As Kate Hudson is the only one of these leading ladies, not to have her own Oscar, you know what this means, no? It means, that while lying low in her current Marilyn Monroe esque fling with a baseballer, Alex Rodriguez, that she’s been picked by the Academy and is being groomed, for her Oscar next.
Congrats Kate Hudson. If Gwenneth Paltrow and Helen Hunt can win an Oscar, than Kate Hudson sure can also. This is how it’s done. With Kate Winslett being the current Oscar girl with Pene Cruz, it’s an American girls turn next.
JOSEPH GORDON-LEVITT THINKS FRENCH GIRLS ARE SEXY
Joseph Gordon-Levitt stars in (500) Days Of Summer and G.I. Joe. He started out playing Tommy Solomon in Third Rock From The Sun. So, he’s never been ‘normal’ as he makes his giant leaps forward in the world of film and movies.
According to reports Gordon-Levitt majored in French at Columbia and works with French oscar winning actress, Marion Cotillard in his next movie, Inception. To Nylon Magazine, he says:
“To be honest, I totally have a fetish for girls who are speaking French – I spend the whole movie turned on… I’m really excited because Marion Cotillard is in [his next movie] Inception. I’m excited to meet her.”
It’s nice to see some cross-cultural blending going on here. That’s always got to be good for America. You just know that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is going to need bodyguards when he nexts travels to France. This shiz he is saying in Nylon is insane.

PENELOPE CRUZ AT CANNES: DON’T CALL ME F*T, EITHER!
Miley Cyrus recently tweeted to the world from a Bahamas Beach, “don’t call me f*t.” At Cannes Film Festival, Penelope Cruz was saying exactly the same thing.
The Oscar winning star who was in France to promote the musical film NINE, was hit by a bout of severe food poisoning. Not being able to eat at all, Penelope had to be excused from her film promotional commitments with her Oscar winning costars.
Her talented co-star, Marion Cotillard of France, promoted the film with Harvey Weinstein of Miramax while Cruz recovered in her hotel room. Poor baby!
Nine looks amazing and also stars Cruz’s fellow oscar peers: Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench, Fergie, Daniel Day-Lewis, Sophia Loren and also Kate Hudson. Let’s hope Penelope Cruz is feeling better… but don’t call her f*t either. She’s trying to keep her food down today!
NINE = MEGA OSCAR WINNERS + ITALIAN CINEMA + MOULIN ROUGE
From the director of the musical film, Chicago comes, NINE. Wow… what can we say, but this film has Oscars written all over it.
It’s a mesh up of Moulin Rouge, it harks back to Italian cinema (in the mode of Antonioni), and it has some Britney Spears dance moves and hair action going on as well.
Most impressive, is the calibre of Oscar winning actors that have cast themselves in this film to give it a life. An incredible line up. All these actors have won Oscars: Sophia Loren, Daniel Day Lewis, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz, Dame Judi Dench and Moulin Rouge star, Nicole Kidman.
Let’s face it, NINE should just be renamed Oscar Wants To Sing & Dance in Italy! Sophia Loren provides the Italian stunningness to launch this film and Dame Judi is pretty fierce too. :)
FRENCH & SPANISH OSCARS IMPORTS – CRUZ & COTILLARD IMPORT THE GLAMOR ONTO HOLLYWOOD BLVD TONIGHT AT THE OSCARS
Last year’s Oscar winner Marion Cotillard, presents her choice for best supporting actress in Hollywood. It is of course, foreign Spanish beauty Penelope Cruz. Can Penelope pip Taraji P. Henson for their first Oscar though. Both gave such powerful performances. Congrats to both for even being nominated!
Hollywood appreciates its imports tonight on Oscars red carpet, Marion Cotillard & Penelope Cruz bring it on at the Oscars in Hollywood tonight.
