Anne Hathaway has been a key advocate of the coastal grandma trend, but it’s not her linen slacks that have piqued our interest. Since the American actor switched stylists from Law Roach to Erin Walsh, she’s been enjoying something of a rebrand. A bombshell rebrand, no less.

Walsh, who came on board as the Wecrashed hype was reaching its peak, has a knack for harnessing all the playful parts of Hathaway’s character and streamlining them. While Roach, who also built Zendaya’s directional fashion archive and reshaped Céline Dion’s public persona, is known for truly transportive fantastical fashion, Walsh adopts a more grounded approach to dressing her clients – with that Hollywood sparkle, of course.

I sometimes watch movies just with the intention of writing articles about them, which was my initial goal when I decided to watch all five of the Tom Ripley movies. Now, because I have movies sent to my house from Netflix (yes, it's still a thing), I sometimes get movies out of order from how I put them in my queue, which was the case when I received 2002's Ripley's Game first, rather than 1960's Purple Noon, and, well, I hated it! It's definitely no The Talented Mr. Ripley, which is by far the most famous adaptation of the Tom Ripley character.

Starring John Malkovich, Ripley's Game features a rogue of a "hero," but I just didn't find it all that compelling. In fact, I fell asleep, and I had to start over again from the middle just to finish it. But, The Talented Mr. Ripley, which is definitely one of the best Matt Damon movies, is a tour de force, and, in my humble opinion, the best movie of 1999, which is often considered Hollywood’s greatest year. I actually just came to this conclusion recently since I had never seen The Talented Mr. Ripley before, until just the other day. So, here are five thoughts I had while watching the exquisite Matt Damon movie for the first time.

Jennifer Lopez has been climbing to the top of the ladder of success since her early 20s, between her career in movies, pop music and business pursuits. Nowadays the “Jenny From The Block” singer is making more headlines than ever regarding her romantic rekindling with Ben Affleck. Per recent words from Lopez, her love life is as important to her (perhaps even more) than the major buzz currently surrounding it.

After a highly-publicized relationship after meeting on the set of Gigli, and then breaking off their engagement in 2004, time has afforded the actors a second chance at love. As Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are putting down long-term roots with one another, with plans to get married in the near future and a recently-purchased shared home, the actress shared how much the pairing means to her. In her words:

Over the past two decades, Lilo & Stitch has become an especially beloved movie amidst Disney’s huge collection of iconic animated favorites. With the movie nearing its 20th anniversary, it’s time to look at its beginnings. According to Lilo & Stitch co-writer/director Dean DeBlois, quite a bit of the movie’s core changed during its development at Walt Disney Animation.

When CinemaBlend spoke to Dean DeBlois about Lilo & Stitch, we asked about the evolution of the modern animated classic. The filmmaker, also known for making the How To Train Your Dragon trilogy, recalled how the idea was initially pitched to Disney. In his words:

After years of whispers about Hollywood’s interest in making a biopic about Madonna, it’s happening with the iconic singer herself set to direct a movie about her life. Since the announcement was made in late 2020, the big question that has lingered has been about the actor who would play the “Material Girl.” Now it seems as though that actress has finally been chosen.

Julia Garner, star of Ozark and Inventing Anna, has reportedly been offered the role of Madonna for the untitled biopic and is “expected to accept,” per Variety. The 28-year-old Netflix star has been in the conversation for the role for sometime, even being named the “frontrunner” amidst an apparently grueling audition process.

Other actors who have apparently been considered to play Madonna under Madonna’s direction are Black Widow’s Florence Pugh, Euphoria’s Alexa Demie and singer Sky Ferreira. Garner was also among CinemaBlend’s own picks for who could play Madonna. Per a previous report from The Hollywood Reporter, the audition process took months, with hopefuls going through “intense” choreography sessions with the singer’s choreographer and personal sessions with Madonna herself.

Kak puteshestvovatj bez plana i nahoditj interesnoe gde ugodno
Eti soveti pomogut ovladetj iskusstvom turisticheskoj improvizacii i poluchitj maksimum udovoljstviya ot spontannogo puteshestviya.
1. Aktivirujte vse chuvstva i ne toropitesjEsli vi reshili puteshestvovatj bez plana, sueta i zhelanie objyatj neobjyatnoe budut toljko meshatj. Prosto primite kak fakt — za odnu poezdku vi ne uspeete uvidetj vse dostoprimechateljnosti iz turisticheskih broshyur. Zamedlitesj i osmotritesj: kakie interesnie mesta estj poblizosti k vashej lokacii, chem kormyat v sosednej kafeshke, kuda napravlyaetsya prohozhij s sobakoj. Vozmozhno, ryadom obnaruzhitsya autentichnij dvorik ili uyutnoe kafe s blyudami mestnoj kuhni, a parenj s psom vivedet vas pryamo v zhivopisnij park.Vi obyazateljno uspeete posmotretj glavnoe — kazhetsya, eschyo nikto ne uezzhal iz Parizha, ne uvidev Ejfelevu bashnyu. No rasslablennij vajb pozvolit prochuvstvovatj to, chto mnogie upuskayut v pogone za millionom odinakovih foto muzeev i cerkvej — zapahi, vkusi, zvuki goroda, treschinki na mostovih i piljnie vitrini, maneru mestnih obschatjsya drug s drugom i zakazivatj kofe, pesni ulichnih muzikantov, rassveti i zakati.2. Obschajtesj s mestnimi zhitelyamiEsli s vami pitaetsya zagovoritj neznakomec, ne stoit vos prinimatj ego v shtiki. On ne pitaetsya otnyatj vashe vremya — v turisticheskih mestah mestnie zhiteli takim obrazom proyavlyayut gostepriimstvo. U vas mogut sprositj, otkuda vi i kak nadolgo v puteshestvii, nakidatj parochku interesnih lokacij i objyasnitj, kak budet udobnee do nih dobratjsya. Ne tushujtesj i zadavajte volnuyuschie vas voprosi o kuljture, tradiciyah i obichayah togo mesta, gde vi otdihaete.Pri horoshih raskladah novij znakomij dazhe mozhet predlozhitj samostoyateljno otvezti vas k krasivim mestam i provesti improvizirovannuyu ekskursiyu. Poroj takie znakomstva pererastayut v nenavyazchivoe priyateljstvo, a inogda i v krepkuyu druzhbu na godi. Lyudi perepisivayutsya, ezdyat drug k drugu v gosti, peredayut gostinci. Soglasitesj, priyatno znatj, chto na drugom konce mira u vas estj svoj chelovek.3. Hodite peshkomChem siljnee stopchete kedi, tem boljshe interesnih mest uvidite. K tomu zhe, nespeshno progulivayasj, vi podmetite detali, kotorie lishj promeljknuli bi iz okna transporta.A eschyo hoditj peshkom vigodno. Vo mnogih stranah taksi i arenda avtomobilya — udovoljstviya nedeshyovie. Kto znaet, vdrug zavtra vi resh*te shoditj v teatr ili kupitj progulku na yahte? V puteshestviyah bez plana luchshe ekonomitj na nekotorih privichnih udobstvah, chtobi ostavalosj dostatochno finansov na neozhidannie manyovri v poiskah vpechatlenij.4. Vibirajte zhiljyo v centreEsli vam ne principialjno, skoljko kanalov pokazivaet televizor v otele, potomu chto v puteshestvii vi prihodite tuda prosto perenochevatj, — bronirujte mesta v nedorogih hostelah ili gesthausah. Oni dovoljno chasto raspolagayutsya v istoricheskih centrah. Esli zhe vi ne privikli ekonomitj na udobstvah, obratite vnimanie na rinok posutochnoj arendi kvartir v teh zhe rajonah. Etim vi ubjyote dvuh zajcev: srazu osmotrite vazhnuyu chastj novogo goroda i obespechite sebe komfortnuyu po raspolozheniyu lokaciyu dlya daljnejshih issledovanij.V centrah vsegda kipit zhiznj. Dopustim, vi nichego ne pridumali na vecher, ni s kem ne poznakomilisj i ne znaete, chem sebya razvlechj. Nadevajte naryadnoe i otpravlyajtesj v blizhajshij bar. Ne lyubite vecherinki? Zabronirujte tihij stolik s horoshim vidom gde‑nibudj na terrase. Najti horoshie mesta v spaljnih okrainah budet problematichno.5. Ne chitajte otziviDazhe priznannim shedevram mirovogo iskusstva i arhitekturi poroj priletaet ot razocharovannih vizityorov: «Mona Liza» malovata, hram Sagrada Familiya visokovat, a piramidi banaljni do neprilichiya.Predstavjte, chto vi reshilisj na tyazhyoloe voshozhdenie, chtobi vstretitj samij luchshij rassvet v svoej zhizni na vershine kakoj‑nibudj znakovoj gori. I vdrug probegaet predateljskaya mislishka: a chto lyudi govoryat? Iz otzivov vi uznaete, chto servis organizovan ploho, gid ni slova ne ponimaet po‑russki, i voobsche podnimatjsya po kamnyam v temnote — formennoe samoubijstvo. Esli posle etogo vi vsyo zhe risknyote podnimatjsya, vpechatlenie ot sobitiya, skoree vsego, budet pohozhe na steklo, zalyapannoe chuzhimi paljcami: vrode bi chistoe, no luchshe bi ego ne kasalisj.Esli vam hochetsya chto‑to uvidetj — ezzhajte i smotrite. Vozmozhno, kakoe‑to mesto, dostoprimechateljnostj ili kartina, ot kotorih v vostorge vesj mir, ne dyornut struni vashej dushi, no eto budet lichnoe vpechatlenie, a ne navyazannoe neznakomcem iz interneta.6. Pomnite o bezopasnostiGovoritj «Da!» lyuboj avantyure — lotereya s nepredskazuemim prizovim fondom. Vsyo mozhet vijti nastoljko fantastichno, naskoljko vam dazhe ne mechtalosj. Uvidetj novie mesta, pouchastvovatj v interesnih proektah, perezhitj yarkij kurortnij roman ili dazhe vstretitj sputnika zhizni — spontannie puteshestviya polni podobnih povorotov syuzheta. No i riski dovoljno veliki: simpatichnogo parnya, pozvavshego na romanticheskuyu ekskursiyu po krisham, na dele mozhet interesovatj lishj vash koshelyok.Poetomu ne stoit zabivatj o lichnoj bezopasnosti. Esli intuiciya podskazivaet, chto luchshe chego‑to ne delatj, — prislushajtesj i podumajte nad aljternativoj. Hotite popastj v sosednij gorod na rok‑festivalj, no opasaetesj avtostopa? Poischite marshrutki ili nedorogie elektrichki. Strannaya kompaniya zovyot posyorfitj v klassnoj buhte, o kotoroj ne znayut turisti? Rassprosite, gde ona nahoditsya, i otpravlyajtesj tuda samostoyateljno. Ne stoit probovatj edu, ot kotoroj vam tochno stanet ploho, dazhe esli eto blyudo vneseno v spisok vsemirnogo kuljturnogo naslediya. A eschyo luchshe ne uchastvovatj v ekstremaljnih razvlecheniyah, esli pered poezdkoj vi kupili samuyu prostuyu i deshyovuyu strahovku.
