I know we didn't get to see much of Sandra Bullock's little baby Louis in the shots I posted yesterday but here are some better ones of her picking him up from school. I can not get over how adorable he is. He looks like a little Angel. And his little outfit is SO cute.

Sandra seems to not be working as much now that she has Louis and who could blame her? She does have one project in post-production (according to imdb) called Gravity in which she stars as Dr. Ryan Stone who as a lone survivor of a mission to repair the space Hubble telescope is desperately trying to get back to earth to be reunited with her daughter. The movie also stars George Clooney. I'd go back to work for that gig too.

One of the many films opening this weekend on January 20, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close will probably require the most Kleenex. It’s an adaptation of Jonathan Safran Foer’s novel about a ten year-old who is an amateur inventor, Francophile, and pacifist who searches New York City for the lock that matches a mysterious key left behind by his father, who died in the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.

Focusing on the sensitive, intelligent Oskar (Thomas Horn), a boy brimming with anxieties, phobias, an extravagant vocabulary and possibly Asperger’s syndrome (which is in the autism spectrum), Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close deals with the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center. When his father (Tom Hanks) is killed, he becomes obsessed with figuring out what a key belonging to his dad opens, as his search brings him into contact with people around the city. Sandra Bullock plays Oskar’s mother and Stephen Daldry (The Hours, Billy Elliot) directs from a script by Eric Roth. The film also stars Jeffrey Wright, Viola Davis, Max Von Sydow and John Goodman.

It opens January 20 in the US and Canada and 17^th February in the UK

The Ziegfeld Theater was once again the site of a movie premiere last night as Stephen Daldry’s Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close held its red carpet gala in New York, the city at the heart of the film. Cast members Sandra Bullock, Tom Hanks, Viola Davis, Jeffrey Wright, Max von Sydow and young Thomas Horn all made an appearance.

Sorry Sandy, but you’re lookin’ a little like Morticia Addams with that all black ensemble and your stick straight hair. And why are you standing like that, with your butt sticking out. You look like you need to make a dash inside the theater for a pit stop.  Tom’s wife, the lovely Rita Wilson, also in all black, doesn’t look nearly as ‘funereal’.  (If this couple ever goes south, I’ll lose all faith in humanity.) That’s Rita with one of their sons (I think it’s Truman.)

Viola Davis looks beautiful in pink. (Love her Grecian inspired dress with the leather collar and her hair is fabulous.) She was just nominated for  SAG and Golden Globe Awards for her role in The Help. It was only a few years ago when Meryl Streep, accepting her SAG award for Doubt (for which Davis was also nominated), said of this New York based stage actress, “Someone give this woman a job”.  (Even though she did have a string of film credits to her name already) she’s worked steadily ever since. She mopped the floor with Jamie Foxx in Law Abiding Citizen (her first film appearance after Meryl’s request) and she generally gets some sort of nomination for everything she does.

There’s something creepy, I’m sorry to say, about the kid in this movie. Thomas Horn, who can’t be more than 12 or 13, talks like he’s already had way too many acting classes. He’s not normal. (Maybe I’m suspicious because not only was he on Teen Jeopardy but he actually won – because he bet it all on Final Jeopardy – unlike some people *coughyourstrulycough* who are wimps and listen to advice from the wrong people. But I digress…)

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is about a nine-year-old amateur inventor, Francophile, and pacifist who searches New York City for the lock that matches a mysterious key left behind by his father, who died in the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Get out your handkerchiefs, the film starts its awards qualifying run on December 25 and then opens wide on January 20.

Enjoy the pics!

Just like the first one, this second trailer for Stephen Daldry's (The Hours, Billy Elliott) Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close  looks like it's just gonna rip me to shreds! It's the story of a boy whose father (Tom Hanks) is killed on 9/11. Their relationship is shown in flashbacks as the boy (newcomer Thomas Horn) and his mother (Sandra Bullock) are still trying, two years later,  to cope with the loss. There's also a mystery involving a key.

The official synopsis: A nine-year-old amateur inventor, jewelry designer, astrophysicist, tambourine player and pacifist, searches New York for the lock that matches a mysterious key left by his father when he was killed in the September 11 attacks.

This new trailer puts the focus more on the boy, (whom I find, to be honest, kind of grating. He over enunciates as if he's had dramatic training since birth) and his search for what that key unlocks. Horn does appear to be capable of handling the emotional elements, despite what I think about his speech patterns. He's probably a "find".
 

Based on Jonathan Safran Foer’s 2005 novel, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close has a screenplay by Eric Roth (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Forrest Gump, The Insider, Ali, Munich) and also stars Max Von Sydow, Viola Davis, Jeffrey Wright and John Goodman. It opens in limited (read awards season) release on Christmas Day and then wide on January 20 in the US and 3 February in the UK.

We've got a lot of little tidbits that have been coming in lately, like great new images from flicks we've been talking about.

Here's a new Image from One for the Money with Katherine Heigl and Daniel Sunjata. Apparently she's impressed with the size of  his gun. Heigl plays Janet Evanovich's popular character, Stephanie Plum. The film opens Jan. 27 in the US and 24 Feb. in the UK.

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is the story of a nine-year-old amateur inventor, jewelry designer, astrophysicist, tambourine player, and pacifist searches New York for the lock that matches a mysterious key left by his father when he was killed in the September 11 attacks. Thomas Horn plays Oskar, Sandra Bullock plays his mother. The film gets a limited release December 25.

The Iron Lady is a look at the life of Margaret Thatcher (Meryl Streep), the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, with a focus on the price she paid for power. It gets a limited release December 30.

I'm really looking forward to Red Tails. A crew of African American pilots, the "Tuskegee Airmen", having faced segregation while kept mostly on the ground during World War II, are called into duty under the guidance of Col. A.J. Bullard. The aerial shots look amazing. The film opens January 20 in the US.

Here's a first look at Matthew McConaughey in Mud, a drama centered on two teenage boys who encounter a fugitive and pact to help him escape from an island in the Mississippi. Also starring Reese Witherspoon and Michael Shannon and directed by Jeff Nichols (Take Shelter), it's not due out until 2013.

In one of the two versions of Dickens' Great Expectations now in production, Jeremy Irvine (War Horse) stars as Pip, alongside Helena Bonham Carter and Ralph Fiennes.   Mike Newell directs. It's out sometime in 2012.

Last, but not least, we have a great new image from Disney/Pixar's Brave, featuring Lord MacGuffin, who will be voiced by Kevin McKidd. Set in Scotland in a rugged and mythical time, Brave features Merida, an aspiring archer and impetuous daughter of royalty. Merida makes a reckless choice that unleashes unintended peril and forces her to spring into action to set things right. It's out June 22.

So if he’s not even good in bed, what’s the appeal?  Jesse James‘ former mistress, Michelle “Bombshell” McGee is outing her former lover as being “average” in the bedroom.

Jesse James and Kat Von D Are Engaged

She blabbed on The Wendy Williams Show yesterday,

“It was kind of weird…he asked me to sit on the couch next to him and watch a movie,” said the mom of two. “It was very 12-year-old and he kind of did the whole like reaching around and that’s where he started kissing me…it was very awkward.”

You know who she wants to hook up with now?  Sandra Bullock!  WTF?

“I love Sandra Bullock I’m a huge fan.  She’s hot. She’s really cute.”

But she’s got a little warning for Jesse’s current fiancee, Kat Von D,

“Kat, run for your life!” she said. “He is a cheater. You cannot change a man. You know you cannot change a leopard’s spot. Once a cheater always a cheater. He cheated on a beautiful woman like Sandra Bullock, like, what makes you think he’s not going to cheat on you.”

I find Michelle repulsive, but she is right.  But you know what?  Kat deserves what she gets.
