Liv Tyler Plays Weak Female Characters, Which Is Apparently What We Need Right Now
The last two movies I’ve seen Liv Tyler in, she’s been the central female character, and a weak one at that: A former drug addict who’s been rescued by a sweet man but finds herself easily falling under the control of a controlling yet seductive jerk thanks to her docile personality. That counts for both Super and The Ledge. (And That Thing You Do! and Armageddon, now that we think about it.) Obviously there’s a formula Tyler’s got in her head. But why would she want to follow it — in both films, her character is meek and lost, hardly speaking above a murmur and terrified of the man who holds her in check.
According to Carina Chocano, this is a good thing. More »
Interview: Matthew Chapman Is Darwin’s Great-Great Grandson, an Atheist, and the Devil’s Spawn
I had a ton of fun talking with Matthew Chapman, the great-great grandson of Charles Darwin and writer-director of The Ledge. Though he’s written two books grappling with faith versus reason, this is his first feature film; the thriller sympathizes with atheist Charlie Hunnam, who steals fundamentalist Patrick Wilson‘s wife Liv Tyler. A UK native who’s lived both in Los Angeles and New York, Chapman might be considered someone who lives on the fringes of Hollywood, but he’s had enough experience to judge Tinseltown’s relationship to religion.
It’s always exciting when an interview turns into an actual intellectual discussion, as when Chapman and I talked about the labels of “atheist” versus “agnostic,” the concept of original sin, and unforgivable acts. He was also just really funny. But then again, I’m biased since I’m agnostic. More »

Liv Tyler Talks Style, Spirituality, and Whether She Would Dress Like Her Dad
The following is a guest post from our friends at Luckymag.com.
Curled up on a couch at the Crosby Hotel, her sky-high black Louboutins tossed beside after a long day of interviews for her new film, actress Liv Tyler is every bit as NYC chic as we expected. Dressed in a Alaia cardigan, a leather skirt from The Row, and a cute top with a Peter Pan collar from somewhere she can’t remember, it’s obvious why the staff here at Lucky has been style crushing on her for years. Today though, she’s here to promote a pretty deep project: The Ledge is not only written and directed by Charles Darwin’s great-great grandson Matthew Chapman (how’s that for bona fides?), it grapples with issues of religious fundamentalism, mortality, adultery and fate. So allow us a brief pit stop before we get to the all- important matter of the day, fashion! More »

Actors are known for going to extremes for movie roles – Christian Bale lost a scary amount of weight for his role in The Machinist, and Renee Zellweger famously packed on pounds for Bridget Jones’ Diary.

The Best Of…Early ’90s Music Videos
We came of age in the 1990′s, as the music video was coming of age as well. In the early ’90s the genre went from experimental device to true art form. Singers enlisted the help of actors and models to tell the story beyond their songs, choreographers created synchronized dance numbers and music videos extended beyond the length of the song into mini-movies, a move made popular by Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.” Although we’re almost too young to remember when these… More »

Afternoon gossip with a slice of lemon
Oh, yeah – P.F. Chang’s, baby! Lettuce wraps and then some honey chicken….mmmmm, good. The only downside was that our server had a big old muffin top; I wouldn’t ordinarily be telling you that except uh, well, she had decided to show us her muffin top complete with her extra special beige control top underpants. I really wanted to tell her that this wasn’t a really good look, but she didn’t seem too overly concerned.
On to the gossip! First,… More »
