Rachel Weisz is a cavewoman. The Oscar-winning actress - who has been dating 'The Wrestler' director Darren Aronofsky for eight years - says their relationship works so well because they are always honest with each other she doesn't have to pretend to be something she isn't. She said: "In life I am a chameleon, and can sense very quickly how to fit in. But with him, I am not being adaptive. I am cavewoman to his manly man. He is always totally himself. I love it that he doesn't feel the need to fill silences with polite chat - his ability to cut to the chase is very exotic to me." The couple - who have three-year-old son Henry

Rachel Weisz and Kate Winslet have deemed themselves the keeping-it-real gurus. Each actress fights the war on Hollywood fakeness in their respective August Harper's Bazaars, Weisz in the U.K. and Winslet stateside. Weisz, a 39-year-old British actress, believes SAG should make it illegal for actors to use Botox or something. "It should be banned for actors, as steroids are for sportsmen," she says. "Acting is all about expression; why would you want to iron out a frown?" Meanwhile, fellow Brit Winslet echoes that thought in her interview... "I have wrinkles here, which are very evident," says Winslet. "And I will particularly say when I look at movie posters, 'You guys...

Hollywood, CA (NewsBahn) - Oscar winning Rachel Weisz claims she isn't famous enough to be followed by paparazzi in Hollywood, and only gets snapped by people looking for the 'Valkyrie' star, Tom Cruise, who lives close to her
She explained to Britain's Harper's Bazaar magazine: "Sometimes the paparazzi, on the lookout for Tom Cruise who lives nearby, trickle onto my street, take a few pictures of me, and disappear. But I never feel hounded. I am really not on that level of fame. I go on the subway and I can walk my son Henry to school.
"I have never had a problem, except maybe briefly when I won the Oscar and gave birth to Henry in quick succession. Then suddenly everyone was interested. Having those lenses coming up towards you when you're holding this little bundle in your arms is frightening."
The British actress - who has a three-year-old son,

You see, 'Bel Ami' when you do a google search will not show you the book by Guy de Maupassant - a popular author in my High School - but a gay porno film production company located in the Czech Republic.

Twilight star Robert Pattinson's list of up-coming films is growing rather consistently, and his fans certainly couldn't be happier about that. On his plate of to-be released films are The Twilight Saga: New Moon (with Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner), Remember Me (with Emilie de Ravin and Pierce Brosnan), The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Unbound Captives (with Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman), and Bel Ami. In New Moon and Eclipse, Pattinson will reprise his role as Twilight's Edward Cullen. Obviously, Twilight series fans are thrilled about this fact. His presence in the two films, though, will probably be quite diff

For many Bat-fans, 1992’s “Batman Returns” is regarded as the best Batman film of the pre-Christopher Nolan era. While it sacrificed Jack Nicholson’s impressive Joker for Danny DeVito’s oily Penguin, it evolved beyond a feature-length Prince video and presented audiences with the darkest take on Gotham’s Dark Knight up to that point.
It also put Michelle Pfeiffer in a skin-tight Catwoman suit — possibly the greatest triumph of any Batman film to date.
That’s why, during a recent press event for Pfeiffer’s upcoming film “Cheri,” we had to ask her what she thought about the current crop of “Batman 3” rumors involving the return of a certain feline-fixated felon.
“You would think so,” Pfeiffer told MTV News when asked whether she thought Catwoman would return to Batman movies with Nolan behind the camera. “They better… They should!”
Presented with the rumors tagging both Angelina Jolie and

Harry Potter star Emma Watson has shed her schoolgirl image - by posing in an upmarket advertising campaign for a British fashion house.
The 19 year old actress has been unveiled as the new face of Burberry, following in the footsteps of Kate Moss and Rachel Weisz.
The announcement comes after months of rumours she was set to sign for rival design house Chanel.
The star, who plays Hermione Granger in the hit wizard films, is seen showing off a new grown-up look, posing in a series of sophisticated shots by legendary photographer Mario Testino.
Burberry's creative director, Christopher Bailey, says, "Having known and admired the lovely Emma Watson for quite some time, she was the obvious choice for this campaign. Emma has a classic beauty, a great character and a modern edge. Her charm, intellect and brilliant sense of fun made the whole shoot feel like a picnic on the Thames.”

This is something new we’re going to try, called Atomic Team Reviews. We’re going to have two writers cover one film and give their overall thoughts and scores as a way to not only give varying opinions on one film but at the same time prevent the site from being flooded with twenty reviews of one flick. The first guinea pig in this experiment is Land of the Lost which will be reviewed by myself and Erik Buckman.
Philip Barrett: The thing that needs to be understood going into Land of the Lost this weekend is that it throws things at the audience and expects them to either take it or leave it. By all means, this is a terrible film that embraces the cheese of the TV show it was based on. Many will complain the film is all over the place and they’re right. How

Warner Bros. has scheduled a December 11, 2009 release date for Clint Eastwood's Invictus, the Nelson Mandela film starring Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon. The film’s working title had been The Human Factor, adapted from John Carlin's book "Playing the Enemy: Nelson Mandela and the Game That Made a Nation." Invictus follows Mandela's attempt to use the 1995 Rugby World Cup to heal his nation following his release from prison, the fall of apartheid and his election as president of South Africa. Damon portrays Francois Pienaar, the captain of the South African rugby team. Freeman portrays Mandela. Eastwood drew the title of the film from a short poem often recited by Mandela. Invictus, penned by William Ernest Henley, speaks to the will to survive in the face of adversity. Anthony Peckham (Sherlock Holmes) penned the screenplay. Also opening the December 11 weekend is Peter Jackson's The Lovely Bones, which stars Saoirse Ronan,

The Brothers Bloom are by reputation the best con men in the world, but younger brother Bloom (Adrien Brody) has had it. He’s tired of the life, he’s tired of the risk, and he’s tired of having to live out whatever fantasies his brother Stephen (Mark Ruffalo) devises for him to live out as part of their grand scheme. What we have in The Brothers Bloom is a familiar story to fans of heist movies: a couple of con men hoping to pull off one last job. And wouldn’t you know it? Their mark is a beautiful woman named Penelope (Rachel Weisz) who Bloom can’t help but feel drawn to. But writer/director Rian Johnson peppers the movie with all kinds of original touches that make it at times life-or-death dramatic or at other times pretty darn funny.

Mark Ruffalo outplays the action boys of summer via ‘Brothers Bloom.’ by Steve Ramos. So far the sights of summer movies are giant robots (“Terminator Salvation”), sleek spaceships (“Star Trek”) and historical statues coming to life at the Smithsonian (“Night at the Museum 2”). Oh, and actor Mark Ruffalo looking dapper in a white suit jacket and a crushed fedora in the fun and fast-paced caper comedy “The Brothers Bloom.” It’s a bit strange, Ruffalo, a mainstay of more serious fare, starring in a light-hearted movie during the heat of the blockbuster season. Then again, the idea of Ruffalo (he co-stars with Adrien Brody and Rachel Weisz) in an update of classic thievery comedies like “Topkapi” and “Charade” makes perfect sense...

The Brothers Bloom is the second effort from innovative writer/ director Rian Johnson. Johnson is responsible for 2005’s acclaimed high school noir, Brick. At the 2005 Sundance Film Festival, Rian Johnson was presented with a Grand Jury Prize for Originality of Vision for his unique film about a hard-boiled high school detective knee deep in a caper involving the murder of a friend and a drug deal gone wrong. Johnson stormed out of the gate with his debut and, with his follow-up, he uses a bigger budget to craft a film with a bit more flash but just as much artistic prowess.
The Brothers Bloom tells the story of two con men, Stephen (Mark Ruffalo) and Bloom (Adrien Brody), as they attempt their final job: to con Penelope, a reclusive heiress (Rachel Weisz) out of her fortune. The film traces the story of the brothers since their adolescence. Stephen has always written intricate cons that are,
