In Memoriam: Taylor Momsen’s Acting Career

No one wants their funeral celebrated on an inconsequential Tuesday afternoon, but Taylor Momsen’s acting career will have to settle for an overheated, late-summer burial.

Steven Soderbergh Reveals Some Post-Retirement Plans

After all, between Contagion (out this fall), Haywire , and the still-to-shoot Magic Mike , The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and Liberace , the Oscar-winning director could have movies in theaters through 2014.
