REVIEW: Danish Actress Paprika Steen Shines in Modest But Moving Applause

Martin Zandvliet’s Applause is a small movie with modest ambitions, and accordingly, it packs only a modest emotional punch. But as a showcase for its star, the Danish actress Paprika Steen (possibly best known for her role in Thomas Vinterberg’s 1998 Dogme picture The Celebration ), it’s still rewarding in its own quiet, jarring way.

PIC: Peter Sarsgaard Still Looks Terrifying in Green Lantern, Sans Make-Up

Here at Movieline HQ, we’re relatively obsessed with the ridiculously disgusting look of Peter Sarsgaard’s villainous Hector Hammond in the upcoming summer blockbuster Green Lantern . That mustache. That hairstyle. That ill-fitting wardrobe. Just imagine what Sarsgaard-as-Hammond will look like when he transforms into an alien-assisted supervillain! (SFX: Rimshot.) Click ahead to see the latest still from Green Lantern , but be forewarned: Even without an abnormally large head, Hector Hammond still looks gross.

Enough, Already, About Jason Segel’s Version of The Muppets

This is the type of post that you’ll scoff at simply as another example of us Movieline haters trying to hate. I assure you, though: It’s not. I am not a hater. (In this case.) I love, love, love Jason Segel — the man is a comic wizard, who is also capable of playing poignant, touching drama, and playing it well; see the last two episodes of How I Met Your Mother , or a lot of the downcast parts of Forgetting Sarah Marshall , for reference. I love that Jason Segel loves the Muppets — so much that he cried when he met Kermit . I love the Muppets! Especially The Muppets Take Manhattan , which includes the perfect amount of melancholy, whimsy and song. That said: Enough, already, about The Muppets .
