Gwyneth Paltrow got naked in 2003 to play the poet Sylvia Plath.

This barely made the list of the Top Nude Scenes of 2003. It tied for 20th.

Her performance was fine, albeit overshadowed by a charismatic performance by Daniel Craig as Ted Hughes, just as Sylvia Plath was overshadowed by the real Hughes. The film, however, was a waste of time, and is scored “rotten” at RT. It’s a film about a famous poet with mental illness, yet the Sylvia Plath estate would not allow any of her works to be cited, thus assuring that the film would offer no insight into either her poetry or her mental state!  Sylvia Plath, without the poetry, and without some insight into her mental illness, is about as interesting as “Oklahoma!” without the songs.

Full comments here.

I don’t question the validity of these captures, but IMDb says the film will not be released until 2019.

You can’t always determine from a description whether a film will be good. A plot summary of Memento sounds awful, but it’s a pretty good film. Having admitted that, I’ll add that Burning Shadow sounds like a total cheese-fest.

“Charlie, a down-on-his-luck loner, crosses paths with a blind homeless man who is his exact double. Perplexed and intrigued by the discovery, Charlie invites the man into his life.”

I may have to watch it just to see whether it’s as cheesy as advertised.

Although Joaquin Phoenix goes full Caesar Romero in this new joker movie, he somehow seems more sensible than when just being Joaquin Phoenix.

Not only that  – and I’m not completely kidding about this – the joker’s skin tone and hair color are more natural, and his make-up is subtler, than our President’s.

Guys really love sports, part 1,713

According to a survey of 2,000 people done by Fathead, 1 in 5 sports fans would turn down sex to watch the big game.

It hinges on how the question is worded. I would turn down some sex. It depends on with whom. I’ll pass on sex with Kathy Bates, for example. In general, however, I’d be happy to have the sex now and watch the game on tape.

How will Roseanne be written out of The Connors?

WARNING: spoilers. (If you care about spoilers on a comedy show.)

I can reveal that they did not take my suggestion which was, as always, Thunderdome.

Mr. Skin’s summary of the TIFF nudity, week two:

Colette

Topless debut of Eleanor Tomlinson.

Keira Knightley left breast

Vita and Virginia

Elizabeth Debicki, as Virginia Woolf, exposes her right breast.

We may get a quick flash of Gemma Arterton’s left breast.

Widows

More Elizabeth Debicki nudity (breasts).

Hold the Dark

Riley Keough comes out fully naked wearing a mask. It is dark and we see her breasts but it may be too dark to see anything below. Quick shot of buns just before she lies down next to him on the couch.

Non-Fiction

Christa Théret and Juliette Binoche (breasts).

Aniara

Tons of nudity. Emelie Jonsson, Bianca Cruzeiro and Jennie Silfverhjelm all strip nude for an orgy! Lots more nudity from Emelie and Bianca throughout the film as well!

Excerpts from Stormy Daniels’ new tell-all book

This one may be TMI as far as I’m concerned.

She describes Trump’s penis as “smaller than average” but “not freakishly small.”  She also describes Trump’s penis as “unusual” and with a “huge mushroom head, like a toadstool.”

“I lay there, annoyed that I was getting fucked by a guy with Yeti pubes and a dick like the mushroom character in Mario Kart. It may have been the least impressive sex I’d ever had, but clearly, he didn’t share that opinion.”

The Onion’s take: “Blood-Spattered Sarah Huckabee Sanders Holds Up Huge Dismembered Penis To Prove Presidential Member Completely Normal”
