Gemma Arterton dating stuntmen

"Gemma Arterton is reportedly dating Daniel Craig’s stuntman after meeting him on the set of Quantum of Solace.

A source told Reveal magazine: “It’s so cute, they are really loved up and it’s great to see Gemma looking so happy.

“They met on the set of Quantum Of Solace. He was Daniel’s body double and there was clearly chemistry from the start.

“They’ve been together for a few months now and it’s going really well.”

Gemma apparently has a thing for body-double daredevils: she was previously linked to stuntman Eduardo Munoz after working with him on her new film with Jake Gyllenhaal Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time".

Rememorating Edie Sedgwick

7. THE CHELSEA HOTEL. LATER THAT DAY.
Sienna wants to hear Edie's voice and has been told that the brilliant artist René Ricard might have rare film footage he shot back in the day. Sienna is familiar with the hotel: Her father's guru still has a practice on the seventh floor.

I take Sienna behind the front desk and introduce her to the legendary proprietor, Stanley Bard. "You look like Edie," Bard says delightedly. "What was she like?" she asks. Bard shrugs. "When she wasn't using, she was fine. But she was a drug addict. I remember Nico, I remember Ultra Violet.… It was like a cult." He directs us to Edie's old place on the first floor. "It probably hasn't changed since she left," he says, and he may well be right. Sienna, squinting as she surveys the room, says, "This is where she had the fire. This is where she crawled on her hands and knees." Back at the front desk, she asks Bard what caused the fire. "Candles and cigarettes," he says with the stoicism of one who has endured more than a few youthquakers in his time. "The usual."

René Ricard, meanwhile, is not answering his phone. Nevertheless, the consensus is that he's: a) upstairs and b) too volatile to be approached directly by Sienna. "You can't go up there," Bard says. "He's paranoid." He turns to a passing hotel resident."This is the girl who's going to play Edie," he says. "Can you take her up to see René?" The tenant edges toward the elevator. "No, man, I just got back from Europe today. I can't. He's crazy." I ask another. "Don't ruin my day," he replies. "He's crazy." Finally, another painter—a young Texan in a cowboy hat who sits all night in the lobby working on a picture of the lobby—strides over and says to Sienna, "I'll take you up, ma'am. I can do this."

8. THE APARTMENT OF BRIGID BERLIN. TWENTY-SIXTH STREET. LATER STILL THAT DAY.
Brigid and Sienna have been collaborating to ensure that Edie, an icon of unknowability as much as anything, has some psychological substance as a screen character. Berlin, Sedgwick's friend, says, "Sienna's very brave to take this on"—not least, in Berlin's view, because capturing Edie essentially involves capturing a very fleeting moment in time. When Sienna frets about getting Sedgwick's elusive voice right, Berlin reassures her. "You're just dealing with somebody who didn't have a long life. It's the press. They make it out now—it's 2005—like she was this great superstar. It doesn't have to be perfect. You don't have much to work with." Berlin doesn't think Miller need lose a pound to play the sylph, although the actress has told me privately that she will: "If you are going to do that character, you have to go there. And she was skinnier than me. She was scary-kinny." Berlin passes on one vital tip:
"Edie didn't take off her false eyelashes. She just put more on." Source: www.accessmylibrary.com

"One person in the '60s really fascinated me more than anybody", Warhol once said."In George Hickenlooper's film, one only has to enter Sedgwick's orbit for a second before falling madly in love with her. And no one fell harder than Warhol, portrayed by "Memento's" great Guy Pearce.

Pearce plays Andy as a subtly powerful but emotionally restrained wallflower, a man whose Factory provides an artistic refuge and haven for bruised souls like Sedgwick, whose father, the film tells us, was her first kiss.

Clearly, you can quibble with "Factory Girl's" verisimilitude, its purely skin-deep study of pop art, its script, which never truly pulls off Sedgwick's progression from college cutie to drugged-out dishrag, and Hickenlooper's directorial lapses, which rely too often on obvious crazy-'60s movie standards".

Tobey Maguire will star in "The limit"


"Tobey Maguire may star in The Limit for Columbia Pictures.
Columbia is currently in talks to acquire Michael Cannell’s upcoming novel with Maguire playing Grand Prix drive Phil Hill, who went against his good friend and Ferrari teammate Wolfgang von Trips in the 1961 Drivers Championship. Tony Peckham will adapt the novel for the screen. Maguire will also produce.
Maguire hasn’t been in a big screen movie since the release of Spider-Man 3 in 2007. He returns to theaters later this year in Brothers with Jake Gyllenhaal and Natalie Portman".

Scoring "Nailed"


"Will "Nailed" his financially-troubled political satire starring Jessica Biel and Jake Gyllenhaal ever come out? Last we had heard Spike Jonze's brother Squeak E. Clean (producer of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Show Your Bones and of the hip-hop mash-up project, NASA) has composed the score, but we were also told around that time that the film was "on hold." What does that mean exactly?" Source: theplaylist.blogspot.com

Reese and Jake spotted in Paris' bistro

"Out at dinner in a cozy little Parisian bistro Peterelle, we were enjoying the delicious food and the wonderful company in this tiny six table setting. Soon enough, this petite blonde bundled up in a wool skirt, a peacoat, and boots strolls in with a tall man wearing jeans, a lumberjack shirt and a fedora. Now- these two look familiar. It is indeed the Oscar winning actress Reese Witherspoon and her beau of two years Jake Gyllenhaal. Sitting at the table next to us, they looked smitten with each other as they spoke throughout the meal, with Reese regularly throwing back her head in giggles. Sweet and subdued, she accepted we take a photograph of her, as Jake picked up a meringue from the large wooden bowl before they got lost together strolling in the wonderful city that is Paris". Source: alothmanblog.com
