The Double shows its cards right away, when the screen fills with a cable news show on which a congressman insists “Russia’s back!,” noting that the country has reignited its nuclear program, its president is openly hostile toward the U.S. and it has more covert agents inside our borders than ever before. Russia’s back, baby!
Now that I’m finally over The Blind Side ‘s undeserved Oscar presence, I can get back to celebrating the things I love about Sandra Bullock. She is feisty! And sincere! And funny! In 1991, she’d apparently already nailed down that Bullockian trifecta, because she is positively charming in this audition tape from the beginning of her career. Check it out after the jump, along with the rest of Buzz Break (including Lindsay Lohan’s newest $1 million offer).
“The storm is over da sun back out. IT#39;S OUR TIME TO SHINE SHAWTY!” completed his message to nearly a million followers. He served 10 months for violating his gun conviction parole when he and wife Tameka Cottle were arrested on drug possession charges in September. “Welcome to the beginning of our Happy Ending,” T.I. (real name Clifford Harris) Tweeted Wednesday, shortly after his release from federal prison in Arkansas. Bureau of Prisons spokesman Chris Burke will not disclose where the
Whether he is heroically stopping (and then resolving ) New York City street fights, making spooky dioramas for journalists or dispensing cryptic sex advice to paparazzi , Ryan Gosling can do no wrong.

No one comes out looking good in The Debt , a grim thriller from director John Madden: Not the Nazi purveyor of concentration camp atrocities, which is a given, but not the trio of young, dedicated Mossad agents sent to bring him to justice after the war either. The film’s a remake of a 2007 Israeli effort that never made it to US theaters, but that presumably carried with it a sense of self-critique, of taking on national mythologizing. Forgoing that focus, The Debt comes across as critical of human nature in general, as a tale of self-interest winning out over the greater good. It’s a bitter pill to swallow, particularly when the character who first offers up this assessment is the aforementioned Nazi monster.
One of the more mysterious curios of the fall movie season is Angelina Jolie’s directorial debut In the Land of Blood and Honey . In an interview with Vanity Fair (on newsstands in New York and Los Angeles this week), Jolie says that she wrote the script for the Bosnian War-set romance while she was ill and quarantined from her children. “I don’t watch TV and I wasn’t reading anything. So I started writing. I went from the beginning to the end. I didn’t know any other way.” Afterward, she passed the draft to Brad Pitt; what did her super-famous husband think? “He called and said, ‘You know, honey, it’s not that bad.'” Oh. Maybe leave that one off the poster. [ VF. com ]
