Your late evening camp

Earlier this evening, Karen was watching A Patch of Blue. She explained the plot to Jake, and when she got to the part about the white blind girl befriending the black guy, I said, “Who, back then, could only be Sidney Poitier.” Then I thought, hold on, there must have been at least a few other [...]

Oprah Turned Jamie Foxx Into A "Gent"

Jamie Foxx says that the part of the inspiration for the self-explanatory MTV competition show he’s producing, From Gs to Gents was the guidance Oprah Winfrey gave him during his whirlwind award-winning streak after his performance in Ray. “Oprah Winfrey said, `Before they give the Oscar out, there’s a certain way you have to [...]

Tobey Maguire Goes a-Crusadin' for Gary Ross!

Instead, we're getting Gary Ross's THE CRUSADERS, an historical drama about the landmark Brown v. Board of Education of Topka decision (which paved the way for school desegregation in the U.S.). It's territory that's been previously covered by a very earnest television movie (George Stevens Jr.'s SEPARATE BUT EQUAL), but, as far as I can remember, never in a theatrically released film - at least, not...

But would it be so terrible to look every one of her nearly 60 years?"There's a lot of competition. You can see how tough it is for kids to get the look, the style, the sound," she says. "It's very challenging for a young person starting today, but also if you want to stay in the game."Coincidentally, on the day we speak, many national newspapers carried a picture of Helen Mirren, aged 63, in a bikini....

I Wonder

The following two quotes are from The Measure of a Man by Sidney Poitier: 1) Some people don’t want to know of the presence of personal demons; they pretend not to know even when they do know. And there are others whose consciousness merely dances around the edge of their dark-side really all their lives. Those folks never step close enough to look even one demon in the eye. But listen, the day one...

The backwards entry

The weekend recapitulation has begun. Please remain seated and keep your eyes on the blog at all times. The ride is actually running backwards today, so we'll begin with today and end with Friday, just hitting the highlights. (Note: All times are approximate.) Right now: I'm looking at a plate with five grapes on it. I had a whole bunch, but one had a bad spot on it. Just leaving one didn't

The Measure of a Man, a Spiritual Autobiography by Sidney Poitier

Challenge In their Shoes I've always been blown away by Sidney Poitier's acting. He dominates the screen and emotes so much intelligence and dignity. So I was excited to read his book and learn more about the person behind the persona. As the title says, this is a spiritual autobiogrpahy, so Poitier mostly tells about the events in his life that helped him develop certain values and philosopies about...

Celebrity jogging: LA's latest fitness craze combines Hollywood's twin obsessions

We nearly didn't notice Larry King, as he wandered down Beverly Drive clutching a cup of coffee. He looked old and thin, and somehow more vulnerable than the pugnacious chat-show host who invades America's living rooms at midnight.
