Paradis

This week, I’d like to feature one of my favorite singers and actresses of the past 20 years- Vanessa Paradis.  If you are only familair with Ms. Paradis as the wife of Johnny Depp, you are sadly missing out.  In France, this woman is a star-and has indeed earned it. Related Posts:No Related Posts

by Anne Jordanova on April 2, 2010

It was great to see the crowd for this film at my local cinema last night. Yes, the reviews for this look like they are all over the map.

These Actresses are a MUST SEE! … Even if you have never heard of them. I feel very compelled to write about foreign actresses. Many I admire, some are colleagues, most are around my age.

Brosnan and McGregor

“The Ghost Writer” is the latest film by Polish-French genius director Roman Polanski. It is a sleek, stylish, and smart political thriller that has channeled Hitchcock in ways that no one has done, since…well-Hitchcock himself.

Cable’s “Nip/Tuck” ended Wednesday night with its 100th episode, which was filmed in Los Angeles last June.  After a 7 year successful run filled with shocking revelations, sex, drugs, and surgery-it was a well put together episode and a finale that did not disappoint.
