Gothamist was a bit underwhelmed by this year's Golden Globe nominees, and we were thinking of not liveblogging. But, gosh darn it as we watched the E! preshow and saw the starlets sparkle their way down the red carpet, we realize it was hopeless, so here we are. Let it be known that: - Keira Knightley looks gorgeous in her white Valentino - and there's something surprisingly youthful about the dress, even though there's that......

It's a complete cliche but in order for movies like the new romantic comedy opening this weekend with Debra Messing and Dermot Mulroney, The Wedding Date, to do well at the box office chicks have to promise the trade-off. Something along the lines of "my movie with the word Wedding in the title" for "your silly game with sweaty men in tight pants on Sunday." Not that Debra and Dermot's movie looks like it will......

The Times tries to give its Stateside readers perspective of how devestating this is to Brits. The Sun says the Beckham feels "stabbed in the barc", and other sources also say Beckham is upset by it, with his eye towards vetoing it. Gothamist is fascinated by the......

601am mentioned how someone at his local video store kept renting the movies he wanted to see, making him wonder if the person would like him, too. I wonder that often when I go see movies, especially when I go alone. I wonder if the people at the Saturday 11AM showing of Femme Fatale or Sunday 12:05PM of My Wife Is Actress are people like me. I suspect we have similar interests, but in truth,......

Finally, the British hit Bend It Like Beckham opens here. It's about an Anglo-Indian girl whose parents want her to lead a traditional Sikh life while she is crazy about soccer. The Beckham in the title refers, of course, to the impossibly attractive and talented David Beckham of Manchester United. Here are reviews from A.O.
