I find this very sexy

George Clooney (and his dad) were arrested in Washington yesterday and I find this sexy? A man with a cause is totally sexy. Yes he knew exactly what he was doing and what the result would be, George is not doing hard time any time real soon, but george is trying to bring to the attention of the world the plight of the Sudanese, and this does deserve our attention. Seriously, big turn on George. Keep it up!

THE DESCENDANTS - review


I've been meaning to review this for awhile, and the reason is not because I didn't like this film, in fact, I loved it. In perfect Alexander Payne form, it is a slow drama revealing real people with real emotions. George Clooney leads a great cast but admittedly, he is the star here. George as an actor for me, never feels to be acting. I am not sure whether this is his acting or just that the roles he chooses don't require him to be anything more than who he is in real life, having said this, he is so mesmerising in this role, that you could never even contemplate another actor taking it on.

The story revolves around George's character,Matt, who is coming to terms with his wife having just had a life threatening injury, being left to look after two daughters that he admits he has only ever been a part time parent too, and then finding out that his wife was having an affair prior to her accident. (this is not spoiling the story for you) The rest of the film negotiates its way across Hawaii and Matt's emotions as he tackles everything that life throws at him. Special mention to Shailene Woodley, who plays Matt's teenage daughter. This is a lady we will need to watch in the future, she is beautiful and brilliant
In this film, even Hawaii has its moments of struggling to be the beautiful paradise we all expect it to be. George Clooney has just one a Golden Globe for this film, and the film actually won best film also, so expect more award fun for this film. If you are a fan of Alexander's previous work like SIDEWAYS and ABOUT SCHMIDT, then you will have already seen this film, if not, why not. This is a lovely, emotional, funny, ripper of a film. I know of people that have not liked it, but I feel confident that Hollow friends will really love this one. Even if you go to feel some love for George, Have you been finding him a little full of himself, smug, etc, just watch this and you will feel the love again. Vulnerable, emotional George is a delight.

The Ides of March new clip

I have a feeling that Ryan is going to be pretty amazing in this film. Screening at the Venice Film Festival in the next week, so should start to hear what it is like soon.

More Ryan.........




Seriously, what wouldn't you do to be part of this set. George Clooney directing and acting, with Ryan Gosling and Evan Rachel Wood. George's dad popped down to say hi, and Ryan clearly was into the schmooze with him. He would so be the type of guy you could bring home to meet the parents, and you know they'd be impressed..

By the way, the Ryan poll revealed, that people would not necessarily be disappointed with a little more Ryan, so let me just warn you , that while "Ides' is filming, you may see a bit of Ryan. The amazingness of Clooney and Gosling together...it's a lot to take in!

Silver Foxes

We had a request from a regular Star's Hollow reader to do a post on men who are sporting fabulous grey hair.  What a great idea.  There are so many lovely men who have lately been added to this list and I must say it is doing nothing to hurt their reputations.  Some, like George and Robert look even more handsome for the salt and pepper!  I did discover during my research that there are varying degrees in this category so for this list I have only included those who are truly Silver Foxes now - coming up will be a list of men who have just started to move into this category.
Enjoy and embrace the grey!
