Here?s the one nice thing I?ll say about Kate Winslet in this post: I really love her outfit in the above photo. Beautiful trousers, beautiful blouse, and a fantastic coat. Usually I hate her style, but she looks great in this kind of office-work attire. Anyway, these are some pics from Winslet?s promotional stop in New York last week. She?s promoting Wonder Wheel, which was written and directed by Woody Allen, and she?s pretty much expecting an Oscar nomination for this. I don?t think it?s going to happen, mostly because the critical response has been mixed-to-bad. It?s an odd year for the actress nominations – in that it feels particularly loaded for a change – and so I really don?t think Winslet will get much more than a Golden Globe nomination. And even then, maybe not, because it?s a Woody Allen film.
So, Winslet is promoting this film and her publicist must be giving strict instructions to reporters to not ask Winslet any further questions about Allen. Or rather, any questions about Dylan Farrow and her accusations. So instead we get Winslet unironically saying that Woody Allen knows women so well that he?s probably a woman. Girl, stop. Some highlights from this terrible Sydney Morning Herald piece:
Winslet thinks Woody is a woman: “I think on some level Woody is a woman,” Winslet jokes as she ponders the question of just how the filmmaker continually creates such memorable female characters. “I just think he’s very in touch with that side of himself. He understands the female characters he creates exceptionally well,. His female characters are always so rich and large and honest in terms of how they’re feeling and he just knows how to write dialogue for them to communicate all that.”
She didn?t want to be too influenced by Woody?s Tennessee Williams influences: “We’ve seen such extraordinary performances ? particularly from women ? in Woody’s films and I wanted to join those great women but only by making her my own person and staying away from any cliches.?
Woody Allen on ?the biggest misconception? about who he really is: “People think I am an intellectual because I wear these glasses and they think I am an artist because my films lose money so it’s a great image but it’s not me. I am the person that is home with a beer in front of the football game on television, not upstairs with a book on Danish philosophy.”
Woody credit his wife Soon-Yi Previn for inspiring him to continually write strong female characters. “She’s got a very domineering personality and is hyper competent and I’m hyper incompetent and can’t work the TV set without calling her into the room. She handles all the money and I get a small allowance of $35 every couple of weeks from her and I’m fine with that because she takes a huge amount of tedious responsibility off me and I’m confident she knows what she’s doing and I don’t!”

Is it cool if I feel sick to my stomach after reading this mess? Kate Winslet is like one week away from declaring Woody Allen the feminist of the year. And Woody crediting his daughter-wife for helping him write female characters?? MY GOD. It?s like neither of them can even hear how crazy and awful they sound. Maybe Woody and Winslet actually deserve each other??

Gabrielle Union spent much of this year promoting her memoir, We?re Going To Need More Wine. She?s been on a book tour for months, and her book tour largely coincided with the unfolding stories of Sex Predatorgate 2017. In her book, Gabrielle wrote about her own rape – which happened when she was a teenager – as well as her fertility issues and the racism and sexism she encounters every day as a black woman in Hollywood. Union did an excellent interview with the New York Times this week, which you can read here:

I just adore Amy Adams. Despite my job, I always feel a little silly adoring people I?ve never met. It doesn?t stop me from doing it, it just makes me feel silly. So, as you can imagine, when I hear good news about Amy, it makes me giddy. According to In Touch, Amy is expecting her second child with husband Darren Le Gallo. Amy and Darren are parents to seven-year-old Aviana. Darren and Amy are both 43.
In Touch is exclusively reporting that Amy Adams is expecting baby No. 2 with husband Darren Le Gallo, 43.
?Amy?s been keeping the news hush-hush, but she?s pretty far along. The buzz is that she?s having a boy,? a source exclusively reveals. The insider adds that Amy, 43, and her hubby ? who are already parents to Aviana, 7 ? have only shared the news with family and a few friends.
?Amy?s very private and doesn?t like drawing attention to herself. But she and Darren are both very excited.? And Aviana ?can?t wait to be a big sister,? says the source, ?and have a little playmate!?

After staring at the American Cinematheque photos that CB posted from November for an inordinate amount of time, I cannot for the life of me see any kind of baby bump. However In Touch says that she’s far along and suggests that they know the sex of the baby. If this is true, if we are to be blessed with a new little Le Gallo then huzzah! The more of Amy in the world the better. Being a Capricorn myself, I?m hoping the new arrival can hold off until he/she can join our ranks.
I don?t know how this escaped me but Amy Adams is playing Camille in the film adaptation of Gillian Flynn?s Sharp Objects. And Patricia Clarkson plays Adora ? oi! Amy and Patricia will be amazing together. I was kind of meh on the book but I think I might be looking forward to the movie, based on these first look photos.
Speaking of Amy?s films, I finally saw Justice League. Just for context, I really wanted to see it. Although Amy and Diane Lane were greatly underutilized, I really enjoyed the film. It?s not perfect by any stretch but I was thoroughly entertained. I think I might even see it again in the theaters.
