Gone Girl
Currently the #1 film
in America and David
Fincher's thriller du
jour - make that
thriller du noir -
Gone Girl is the
convoluted story of a
wife who suddenly
seems to be missing
and the suspicion that
gradually turns upon
her husband. You don't
want me to say any
more than that,
because it's an
entertaining, dark,
twist-filled mystery
from a filmmaker who
is a master at that
very genre. In other
words, you probably
want to see it, and
therefore don't want
me to tell you any
more.
Unfortunately, the
only clips we have at
the moment come from a
crappy cam, which is a
shame, because we're
talkin' Emily
Ratajkowski's chest
here. Oh, well, think
of it a a tease for
the pleasure to come
when this film reaches
Blu-Ray.
SPOILER WARNING: the
clips give away
important elements of
the plot, but there's
no way to avoid that
and see the nudity.
Stay current
The Fappening heated
up again on Friday.

Crap for
updates in real
time, or close to

Belle
du Seigner
(2012)
Belle
du Seigneur (The Passion
of War) is a European
movie set just before
World War 2 where married
couple Adrien and Ariane
(Ed Stoppard and Natalia
Vodianova) are in Geneva
for Adrien's job working
for the League of Nations.
His boss Solal (Jonathan
Rhys Meyers), the head of
the League of Nations
spies Ariane and he is
instantly smitten. And he
doesn't even care that
she's married, he's going
to have her no matter
what. Solal is also
desperate to stop the
German upsurge, but no-one
else wants to hear this,
so he resigns and steals
away Ariane to her home in
Italy. But, both Solal and
Ariane's behaviour wavers
wildly and their
relationship is tumultuous
to say the least. Solal
attempts to get a job back
at the League of Nations,
but when he sees that he
is not wanted, he comes
back to Ariane and they
continue their downward
spiral of a relationship
until it's inevitable end.
Oh boy, this is sooooo
tawdry. Solal is so
sensitive, brooding and
possessive that only he
can save the world/have
the girl. Ariane is
understandably taken by
Solal, but she plays into
his whims and is
impossible to feel
sympathy for.
Both
Vodianova and Meyers are
so beautiful together and
there are many exotic
locations that the movie
feels more like a perfume
commercial (both I'm sure
have been stars of) and
the plot also resembles
one. After Ariane splits
from Adrien, except for
one brief moment between
he and Solal, Adrien
disappears completely,
doesn't even fight for his
wife. Belle du Seigneur is
the very definition of
melodrama, but sadly, a
wafer-thin one.)
