REVIEW: Gus Van Sant’s Restless Is Sweet, If Feather-Light

Restless is so fluttering and tender, so guileless, that you almost can’t believe it was made by an grizzled old hand like Gus Van Sant. Then again, maybe you can. Annabel (Mia Wasikowska) and Enoch (Henry Hopper, son of Dennis) play somber teenagers who meet at a memorial service. Enoch is haunted by the death of his parents — he lost them suddenly in an accident. Annabel has her own secret, spilled early on: She’s dying of cancer. They fall in love, quickly and fervently, knowing only doom and sadness await them — and they’ve never even seen Love Story.

In this installment of Weekend Forecast, three new and (mostly) intriguing offerings vie at the box office: the Ryan Gosling showcase Drive , Sarah Jessica Parker’s I Don’t Know How She Does It , and Rod Lurie’s remake of Sam Peckinpah’s Straw Dogs .

Father of Real Housewives of New Jersey Star Arrested for Arson, Money Laundering

It’s on a very different level than the tragedy of Russell Armstrong’s suicide on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills , but another installment in this Bravo franchise is facing yet another scandal. Matt Holmes – the father of Ashlee Holmes and former lover of Jacqueline Laurita (pictured) – has been arrested in Texas for arson, insurance fraud and money laundering. He and his wife, Jodi Sue, were booked for a fire that destroyed their home in March. According to Radar Online, a witness has come forward and said Matt started the fire in order to collect on a $429,000 insurance policy. The couple then allegedly used this cash to purchase items such as a diamond ring. Local authorities are working with the FBI on the case, but Ashlee has already taken to Twitter to defend her father: “FYI- my parents have NOT been indicted..this whole thing was started by a disgruntled employee..they are INNOCENT &that’s all i have to say.”

Go Bananas with Planet of the Apes and Mr. Skin [PICS]

Rise of the Planet of the Apes , the newest movie in the Planet of the Apes franchise, hits theaters worldwide this weekend. And although PETA loved it , there’s nothing for nudity lovers to go ape over in this skinless sci-fi flick. The original had Linda Harrison in that weird mud-and-leaves bikini at least- why no nudes in this installment? Probably because it’s supposed to be “serious” and have a “message” about mistreating animals. Pssssh. But there’s no need to be a sad monkey, because Mr. Skin’s got some fur-flying nudes that’ll really peel your banana: Bo Derek really woke the beast inside Mr. Skin with Tarzan the Ape Man (1981), where the incomparable Ms. Derek spends most of the film either completely nude or topless and covered with body paint. Just don’t ask him to do his Tarzan yell . That same year, Jenny Neumann starred in Mistress of the Apes (1981), about a sexy anthropologist who joins up with a lost tribe of ape-men for wild group sex and ape-baby breastfeeding scenes. We knew we should have changed majors sophomore year! It’s probably no co-skin-cidence that a mere year after the 2001 Planet of the Apes reboot, Jenny Wallace found herself mounting a silverback in Babes in Kongland (2002). Also in 2002, Darian Cane did what any reasonable softcore starlet would do if she found herself trapped in a cage with Misty Mundae – lez out, of course! And that’s just the beginning of the muff-munching delights of Play-Mate of the Apes (2002). And although it looks relatively tame today, in 1968, Noriela Noel ‘s full frontal skin shot in Night of the Bloody Apes was the absolute king gorilla of shock skinema. We’ve got even more sexy naked stars to peel your banana, so devolve with Mr. Skin and his database of ape clips now!

Ashley Greene’s Body Gets A Workout

Here we go again with some more sexy chicks in workout gear photos. In this installment we’ve got Twilight hottie Ashley Greene out in her somewhat eighties inspired Flashdance costume looking as hot as ever. I want to see the part wear she dumps a bucket of water on herself. Hot. I don’t know why this kind of thing turns me on, she must be all sweaty and gross, but there’s just something about a chick in three quarter length yoga pants holding a water bottle that I like. I have very specific tastes.

‘Jersey Shore’ High Five: Ronnie Teaches Us How Not To Apologize

Sammi and Ronnie’s relationship dies a 30-minute-long death in latest episode. By Jim Cantiello Ronnie on Thursday’s episode of “Jersey Shore” Photo: MTV Ever wish you could watch a snuff film about the death of a relationship? You’re in luck. Check out the embedded video to catch my five favorite moments of this week’s intense “Jersey Shore.” 5. Boardwalking While blowing off steam on the boardwalk, Ronnie and Pauly D walked by Sammi and Deena. Turns out Sam’s eyesight is as good as her taste in men: As Ronnie passes by with Pauly, Sammi asks Deena, “Was he with a girl? I think he was with a girl!” Ok, OK, in Sammi’s defense, Pauly D does look exactly like the sister from “Dinosaurs.” 4. How Not to Apologize, Part I It’s been about two seconds since we’ve last watched Sammi and Ronnie rehash the crap that went down in Miami. Will the 9 millionth time be any different? Let’s find out! Sammi: “How could you sit there and look me in the face, watch me cry, lie to my face?” Ron: “I have enough respect and love for you to f—ing admit what i did was f—ing wrong and is shameful and disrespectful … ” Whoa, whoa, whoa. Did Ronnie just officially apologize? Ron: ” … You’re so f—ing dumb and hardheaded that you can’t even admit what you did to me in Atlantic City was wrong, what you did to me at Jersey Shore was wrong. Be a woman and man up for once. I had a reason to sh– on you in Miami. Realize that.” And that was how not to apologize, brought to you by RonRon Juice. “RonRon Juice: ‘Roid rage in a bottle™.” 3. The Fight Freshly broken up — yes, they broke up — Ronnie and Sammi’s fighting escalated to insaaaane new heights. Did anyone else want to cry uncle every 30 seconds this episode? Congratulations, Sharon Stone in the third hour of “Casino”: You are no longer the most hysterical woman I’ve ever seen on my television! 2. How Not to Apologize, Part II Sammi retaliated by skanking it up at a club with a dude who belonged on HotGuysWhoLookLikeLesbians.com, and Ronnie wasn’t havin’ it. So he retaliated by trashing all of Sammi’s crap, including her glasses. Dude, come on, now. Grow the f— up. And that brings us to yet another installment of “How Not to Apologize.” Ron: “You f—ing disrespected me in front of my face. What i did in Miami, at least I had enough respect for you to do it to you while you’re not around.” Yes, Ronnie. Nothing says respect like three-way kissing two girls at a club behind your current girlfriend’s back and then stumbling home and having sex with your girlfriend the same night. Oh. And reality-TV cameras are documenting all of it. That is the epitome of respect. 1. Sneaker Pimp Despite all the drama, which ended with Sammi leaving the house, Pauly D kept his priorities straight. Pauly D: “I’m over here trying to clean my sneakers. I can’t concentrate! All this fighting! They’re talking about relationships, my sneakers are dirty!” Pauly D, for making me laugh in the midst of one of the biggest, most upsetting blowups in reality-TV history, I salute you. And your bottle of 409. Don’t miss “Jersey Shore,” airing Thursday nights at 10 p.m. ET on MTV. Related Videos ‘Jersey Shore’ High Five Highlights

‘Jersey Shore’ Stars Ronnie, Vinny Tease Season Three

‘The authenticity of us being home, it’s right back at you,’ Ronnie says of return to Seaside Heights. By Kyle Anderson, with reporting by James Montgomery “Jersey Shore” stars Vinny Guadagnino and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro Photo: MTV News For “Jersey Shore” fans, this past Sunday night was an amazing evening. Not only did a brand-new episode air before the Video Music Awards pre-show, but the cast was all over the white carpet and continued to pop up again during the main show. Having just wrapped the third season of the “Shore” — the gang heads back to the friendly confines of Seaside Heights, New Jersey in this installment — MTV News caught up with Vinny Guadagnino, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro and new castmate Deena Cortese to get some scoop on the next season, which includes a few run-ins with the law . “We just finished [season three], and we’re good law-abiding citizens,” Vinny told us. “Some people break laws, but it’s on camera, so everything that happens, you guys see. But we’re the same kind of human beings as anybody.” Ronnie, who was arrested last month as a result of several unpaid parking tickets, shrugged it off. “I had a parking ticket. It was nonsense. I can’t run for governor now!” he joked. But what can viewers expect from the third season likely premiering some time later this year? “The best things you liked about us in season one, the authenticity of us being home, it’s right back at you in season three,” Ronnie said. “You’ll just have to watch to find out.” Cortese also played “Shore” details close to the vest. “I don’t want to give anything away,” she said. “But there’s a lot more comedy this year.” What are you hoping to see in the third season of “Jersey Shore”? Let us know in the comments! Don’t miss “Jersey Shore” every Thursday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on MTV. Related Photos VMA 2010: Jersey Shore Cast Jersey Shore (Season 2) | Ep. 7 | Flipbook

Jacqueline Laurita on The Real Housewives of New Jersey: We Are a Disgrace!

Love and light. Stay in the positive, bitch! – Ashley Holmes to Danielle Staub Last night, Bravo offered up an unbeWEAVEable episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey . The utter insanity was highlighted by a fight between Danielle Staub and Tersea Giudice, culminating in Ashley Holmes – the 19-year old daughter of Jacqueline Laurita – yanking out Staub’s hair extension. The writers of this installment deserve an Emmy, though Holmes posted this week on her Facebook page yesterday: “YIKES… not one of my finest moments in life.” Police were called to the scene of the chaos, which was filmed months ago. Therefore, Laurita has had time to reflect on the events and Tweeted late last week: “It’s like at train-wreck you can’t look away from… We are a disgrace! It’s bad. Shameful but… a little bit humorous, dare I say, in parts. Hope we can still be friends. Lol!” Friends?!? Bravo likely just gave you all raises and lifetime contracts. Go out and celebrate! We know where you can find a good coke whore for the occasion…
