Sexy, like funny, is highly personal. So take these annual awards -- honoring characters that turned us on -- with that knowing grain of salt. Maybe they won't do anything for you. But for this movie buff...


The photo above is from model Jon Kartajegna's single scene in A Single Man. He plays the john "Carlos" and his lips alone are so intoxicating that Tom Ford has to reveal them through a slow burn cloud of smoke rather than just hit them with you all at once. And the prudish American trailer had to cut him out altogether for fear that audiences would get the wrong idea and think this was a [gasp. clutch pearls]... gay movie. Say it isn't so!

One only wishes that Colin Firth's George had gone home with him to bone up on his shaky Spanish. Then the movie could have burst free from its repetitive blueball drama in which George begins to feels something and then runs away from it. Repeatedly. I realize that's the point of George's return to living but didn't you want more Kartajegna, too?

The latest update to the FiLM BiTCH Awards also throws longing glances at Clive, Vera, Michelle, Gwyneth, Neytiri and two double-your-pleasure 2009 hotties, Penélope Cruz and Rupert Friend. Which star turns raised your temperature?Nessun tag per questo post.

There is no stopping the power of the Gaga!

Eye Candy Weekend

Julianne Moore is the NY Times cover star for Women's Spring Fashion 2010. Mmmmm Julie Ann Smith. She never fails to awe in still photography.


The Times claims that she "acts out the complex theater of feminine personae for the photographer Raymond Meier" ...isn't that what she does every time the camera is on her?
Her own description of her character-building for A Single Man (we don't normally hear her talk this explicitly about her process) makes me love the performance more in retrospect

A lot of the character began with a particular vocal choice: she’s someone who is very wealthy, very educated and kind of a party girl. There’s this way of speaking among these women where you don’t know whether they’re posh or hammered all the time. So, that’s where I started. Then I listened to very early Julie Christie, to get the early-’60s kind of sound...

Julianne listening to Julie? Someone needs to make a short experimental film inspired by that.

Click on the photos to take a look at their shoot. If I were a photographer she'd definitely be near the top of my long must-get list. Along with so many others but the ones that just occurred to me while typing away were Anne Hathaway, Jude Law, Juliette Lewis, Olivia de Havilland (for the private audience you know) and James McAvoy. Off the top of my head.

Who would you thrill at capturing on film... and which complex personae would you hope they worked for the lens?

1. "Shutter Island" ($22.2 million)
2. "Cop Out" ($18.6 million)
3. "The Crazies" ($16.5 million)
4. "Avatar" ($14 million)
5. "Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief" ($9.8 million)

The ghosts of "Shutter Island" continued to haunt the box office this weekend with another first place finish. Having already won the top spot last weekend and on Friday, director Martin Scorsese and star Leonardo DiCaprio's most recent collaboration remained in front of the pack by Sunday's conclusion with $22.2 million. With a domestic gross of $75 million and a foreign intake of $4.6 million after two weeks in theaters, Paramount's latest thriller is a stone's throw away from earning back its $80 million production budget.

New releases "Cop Out" and "The Crazies" battled it out for the weekend's second place slot, having a mere $5,000 difference between them going into Saturday morning. Ultimately, director Kevin Smith's latest comedy, which stars Bruce Willis and Tracey Morgan as a pair of mismatched police officers chasing down a petty thief played by Seann William Scott, bested "The Crazies" by a $2.1 million margin. Although business could have been better, "Cop Out" and "The Crazies" enjoyed successful weekends due to the relatively inexpensive production costs for both films, with Breck Eisner's horror remake already well within reach of its reported $20 million budget.

James Cameron's "Avatar" stayed strong in its eleventh weekend in theaters. With a fourth place finish worth $14 million, the science fiction adventure has officially broken past $700 million in domestic ticket sales. "Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief," meanwhile, took the final spot in the top five, causing Friday's fifth place finisher "Valentine's Day" to drop to sixth place.

Tell us what you think of the box office results in the comments and on Twitter!

I haven't participated in a "Smackdown" over at me pal StinkyLulu's place for ages. What better time to correct that than during Oscar season? It won't surprise you that Mo'Nique has my vote for Precious but see how many hearts (on a scale of five) each nominated performance gets from myself, StinkyLulu, and the rest of the panel and what we had to say about Maggie Gyllenhaal, Penélope Cruz and the Up in the Air girls, too.
