Jane Fonda's big fake boobs and 5 more things you need to know about the movie 'This is Where I Leave You'

I really can't wait to see the adaptation of Jonathan Tropper's This is Where I Leave You which I discovered and blogged about a year ago . It's mostly because I'm a major fan of the legendary Jane Fonda who stars as Hillary Foxman, the celebrity child shrink who compels her family to sit shiva after her husband and the father of their four adult children dies. Sitting shiva, fyi dear gentile readers, is the traditional Jewish way to mourn the death of a close family member, and calls for the family to gather together for 7 days (shiva = seven) while friends and other relatives come, often bearing food, to pay their respects and share memories. Seven days together with your family. In the case of the Foxmans, the four adult children -Judd (Jason Bateman), Wendy (Tina Fey), Phillip (Adam Driver) and Paul (Corey Stoll) - come in various stages of reluctance and wariness, depending on their personal baggage, which they all bring in spades. The truth is I kind of

Saturday Matinee: Catch Me if You Can featuring birthday 'girl' Amy Adams

Catch Me if You Can stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks of course. John Williams score was nominated and Christopher Walken got a nom as Abegnale Sr. But the film also features Amy Adams as an innocent little girl type. Adams was actually 28 when she played Brenda Strong, the naive young thing swept off her feet by dreamy conman Frank Abegnale. While Junebug is generally considered Adam’s breakout role—her 2005 performance is the first of her five Oscar nominations— Catch Me if You Can came 3 years before that. She’s good at seeming naive, vulnerable, almost trembling. Besides Catch Me if You Can , think of Doubt, The Master , more recently Big Eyes . gif via olyaolia.tumblr.com Amy Adams turns 43 today, no longer a little girl, the actor has two upcoming films that fall under our book to movie-watching eye. Arrival based on the Ted Chiang short story/novella The Story of Your Life and Nocturnal Animals based on Tom Ford's adap

Clint Eastwood & Meryl Streep Ooze Chemistry in The Bridges Of Madison County: Let's Go Behind the Scenes #book2movies

There's no way Clint Eastwood approved this heavily retouched promotional photo for The Bridges of Madison County. Clint looked much older in the actual film, the wrinkles folding down onto his neck. And yet still sexy. Go figure! My husband walked in while I was watching this week's Saturday Matinee, 1995's The Bridges of Madison County . It was a coolish, foggy day so I only felt faintly guilty that I actually was watching a movie in the middle of the afternoon. A movie I didn't clear ahead of time. Didn't bother asking anyone, do you mind if I—? I don't know what came over me. I figured if I was interrupted, the Amazon rental is good for 30 days, I could always go back to it later. But I also knew he was doing a little prep work for some reshoots he's doing next week, chances were pretty good I'd be able to watch the whole thing. And then he walked in, stood watching the screen for a few moments. Already hooked, I felt a little guilty abou
