"She also explains her relationshp with current boyfriend, actor Jake Gyllenhaal, ex-husband actor Ryan Phillipe - and her love of antique lace.
Q: So, you are in a stable relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal, right? How is he?
R: Yes. And we’re just fine. Thanks for asking.
Q: Do you always travel with Jake and your children when possible?
R: Well, My children cannot travel with me because they go to school so they’re back home. And on this occasion Jake has come along. I try to spend as much time as I possibly can with my family.
Q: Are you a romantic person?
R: Very. I think all women have a romantic side.
Q: What are the best moments of your day?
R: My best moments of the day are with my children, whether it's helping my daughter with her homework or tucking them into bed after saying prayers.Q: What makes you laugh?
R: I am a happy and positive person so I laugh easily.
Q: How does it feel to be considered one of the most beautiful actresses in Hollywood?
R: Oh, Thank you! I feel very blessed, you know. It is a wonderful opportunity to travel all around the world and talk to people. And create films that hopefully brings joy to people, so I feel very lucky in life.Q: Do you have any beauty tips you could share?
R: I just take care of my skin. And for me it’s important to sleep a lot because if not it just shows in my pale skin.
Q: What are your hobbies?
R: I am a homey person and now I share things with my children but I still collect antique linens and embroidery. It’s something that I enjoy a lot.
Q: Who are your favourite fashion designers?
R: I love fashion but I don’t follow it. I grew up in Tennessee. We didn't know what Louis Vuitton was. I had to order all my prom outfits from catalogues.
Q: Is image the key to success in Hollywood?
R: In Hollywood, maintaining an image is a race to nowhere. I know I am never going to be the skinniest, the most beautiful. I just want to be the best version of myself that I can be".

Drug fueled scenes
"Jack is on the run from a couple of small-time thugs who are out to break his feet and Pilot is chasing a fantasy girl. Along the way, they pick up Cassie (Selma Blair), a one-time prostitute who just wants to get away, and Johnny the Fox (John C. McGinley), a drug dealer looking for a group to hang and party with. The quartet has one thing in common other than being lost souls – they all share a love for grunge music, and their awful hairstyles (except for Cassie’s) show it. Cobain, the father of grunge is dead, and Seattle has become the grieving spot for multitudes of others with equally bad hair. There are other characters and situations in the movie that again bring up the themes of isolation, individuality and freakishness. What does work was Gyllenhaal’s performance. Whereas Leto fails to engender any sympathy, Blair doesn’t show much personality and McGinley demonstrates little sense or restraint, Gyllenhaal keeps the picture moderately grounded. Both childlike and adult at the same time, his character’s circumstances are pretty tragic. Still, he shows humour, sensitivity and vulnerability. Pilot is a jerk and a best friend all in the same sentence". Source: apolloguide.com

Funny men are the sexiest
"A sense of humour makes men seem more intelligent, trustworthy - and a better bet for a relationship, a study found.Psychologist Kristofor McCarty said it appeared that men really can laugh women into bed.Jake in a goofy pose with Jennifer Aniston.Jake laughing with Alison Lohman.
He said: 'A quick browse of lonely hearts ads will confirm that women look for a good sense of humour in a potential partner - our research may explain why this is the case.'
Mr McCarty asked 45 women to rate the personalities behind a selection of lonely hearts ads drawn up especially for the study.
Some of the ads had been chosen because they were funny, others were entirely factual.
The funny men were rated as more intelligent, despite the ads containing no clues on IQ.

"I'm guilty of trying to find the humor in even the most serious of films that I've done and it always gets edited out so it was kind of a joy to be in an environment where the director and producers were saying, "No, no, no, try. You have an idea? Go for it".

Emile Hirsch in "Into the wild".
-There is humor in this film too.
-Absolutely, I think there are many funny performances. And a lot of what McCandless does is very funny. Some of the things he does are odd and loopy, because the guy isn’t totally there. In Krakauer’s book he explains how Christopher has gaps in his thinking and the movie shows it, and some of that can come across as comedic too.
-How close is your portrayal of Christopher McCandless to the one in the book?
-I think mine is probably a little more vulnerable. In the book he comes across as more stern and angry. After talking to Carine for a while it seemed natural to make him a little more vulnerable".

"Michael Cera and Kat Denning's characters almost work perfectly together. Each a little awkward, Dennings and Cera balance their sarcasm and almost lame humor. Together the pair's realistic first date chemistry is not only refreshing but also fun to watch. Alternatively, Norah's wayward best friend, Caroline, provides comedic relief throughout the movie with drunken bad decisions".

They were also seen as more honest and better material for a relationship and for friendship, the British Psychological Society's annual conference heard.
The finding could go some way to explain the sex appeal of some of Britain's favourite comedians.
Mr McCarty, of Northumbria University, said: 'There was a kind of halo effect. The funny guys appear to be getting everything.

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". Source: fametastic.co.uk

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".
