從【刺殺傑西】到威尼斯參展以來即耳語不斷，不但《GQ》票選他為2007年度風雲人物之一，好萊塢也已預測他極有機會搶下奧斯卡最佳男配角提名席位。 

羅伯福特也是從小看著傑西的傳奇故事長大，後來更幸運地與哥哥一起加入傑西幫。但是傑西在他加入時開始變得神經質，無法輕信他人，伙伴接連被他處決，最後只願意將這對兄弟帶在身邊。【刺殺傑西】說的即是傑西生命後期這段牽涉政府陰謀、兄弟反目與朋友背叛的血腥歷史。

主角傑西不難找，製片人布萊德彼特早就答應一肩挑起，但導演安德魯多明尼克在挑選看起來稚嫩又危險的毛頭殺手時卻傷透腦筋，這小子角色吃重，一方面要十分崇拜傑西，嫩到讓傑西相信他可以完全受其控制；一方面又要工於心計，能收起心中的恐懼將暗殺計畫貫徹到底。

後來他發現，「高齡」32的凱西艾佛列克完全符合條件，不過不是因為他曾與布萊德彼特在【瞞天過海】系列合作的關係。

凱西艾佛列克承認兩部片的拍攝氣氛完全不同：「拍【瞞天過海】時，幾個禮拜的拍攝行程好像才過六小時，大家笑一笑就拍完了，但【刺殺傑西】卻是每天都要卯足了勁上陣。

巧的是，球星貝克漢的老婆性感辣妹維多莉亞，也為另一家雜誌拍攝了類似的照片，不論姿勢、眼神、打扮都如出一轍，許多歐美時尚人士都忍不住把兩人拿來超級比一比，沒想到身材瘦削的綺拉奈特莉竟然大勝波濤洶湧的維多莉亞，理由是：二十出頭的青春胴體實在太迷人啦！

綺拉奈特莉靠著脫俗超凡的氣質星運大開，接二連三演出古典美人，除了『傲慢與偏見』當中的倔強少女，最近她還與『巴黎初體驗』性格小生麥可比特聯手，擔綱演出當代知名小說家亞歷山卓巴瑞科作品改編的【異旅情絲】(Silk)。

【異】片中，綺拉飾演獨守空閨的深情女子，丈夫為挽救家鄉的絲綢業，要遠赴陌生而封閉的日本尋找健康蠶卵，兩人幾度離合，年輕夫妻短暫相聚更加熾熱纏綿，綺拉為求最佳詮釋，不惜全裸露點上陣，與麥可彼特幾度纏綿，絕對沒有因為人紅而設限，可見她對導演法朗索吉哈充滿信心，同時可以看見她重視自己演出的藝術美感，而不拘泥於純情形象。

劇中外柔內剛的古典美女，纖細敏感，堅毅深情，最後卻必須面對生命中前所未有的震撼與變化，綺拉演來渾然天成，嬌弱動人的模樣真是我見猶憐。也難怪還有暢銷歷史小說改編的另一部新片『公爵夫人』等著她，該片男主角雷夫范恩斯更是指明女主角非綺拉奈特莉莫屬。 

日前她為英國時尚雜誌『INTERVIEW』拍攝封面照片，尺度大膽令人咋舌。頂著一頭烏黑慵懶大捲髮的綺拉，刻意畫著鮮艷欲滴的大紅唇膏，眼神由下往上勾住鏡頭。身上只穿一件白色短褲，上身則完全赤裸，只用黑色吊帶，以及戴著黑色長手套的手遮住重要部位，看起來完全是個性感小野貓，與電影中的模樣相差十萬八千里，綺拉全身洋溢青春活力，展現出年輕女性的自然魅力，胸部大小不是重點，是否勇於『做自己』才是決定女人魅力的關鍵！

【異旅情絲】改編自知名小說家亞歷山卓巴瑞科的暢銷小說，故事淒冷唯美，道盡東西方文化差異與愛情真諦。故事述說1860年斑點蠶症摧毀了歐洲蠶卵，嚴重影響整個歐洲絲綢業。年輕商人赫維（麥可比特飾演），被指派前往日本尋找健康蠶卵，迫使他與新婚妻子海倫（綺拉奈特莉飾演）必需分隔兩地。

赫維在日本與領主十兵衛原（役所廣司飾演）相識及交易，並邂逅領主的妾，即使受語言隔閡，赫維仍被這份無言的愛深深牽引。赫維回國後若有所思，纖細敏感的海倫娜亦感到無奈，直到一封暗藏野火的日本情書，將赫維帶離他的世界，改變他的命運………。

My obsession with Denzel began in college when my roommate at the time, Laura, put up posters of Denzel Washington all over her room. We would collect all kinds of magazines simply because Denzel was on the cover. We must have watched Malcolm X a million times and never got tired of it. I even vowed to name my son Denzel when I will have a kid. By the way, we share the name nickname: Dee!

Denzel Washington is the first African-American to receive two Oscars and the most nominated African-American actor in the history of Academy Awards. He’s best known for portraying real people in films, Steve Biko in CRY FREEDOM, Malcolm X in MALCOLM X, Reuben Carter in THE HURRICANE, Herman Boone in REMEMBER THE TITANS just to name a few. And now the latest adding to his works, Denzel Washington stars in AMERICAN GANGTER as Frank Lucas, once the most notorious drug kingpin.

AMERICAN GANGSTER opens with “Bumpy” Johnson (he had a big bump on the back of his head and nicknamed Bumpy) walking in the neighborhood of Harlem with his driver Frank Lucas. Then Bumpy had a massive heart attack, causing his life. Frank was by his side when Bumpy passed away. That was 1968.

The film didn’t provide any details on Lucas’ background.

Frank Lucas was born on September 9, 1930 and hailed from a little town called La Grange in North Carolina. He was the oldest child and in those days he had to put food on the table for the family. He witnessed crime at an early age when Ku Klux Klan shot his cousin to death. Frank Lucas may have been a man with little, almost to zero education but he was a wise guy, someone with a Ph.D. in street survival skills.

Frank Lucas arrived in Harlem in the summer of 1946 and soon after he began working for Bumpy Johnson. Even though Frank Lucas looked up to Bumpy Johnson as his mentor, he disagreed with Bumpy’s belief that all wealth should be shared. “I was a different sonofabitch. I wanted all the money for myself!” says Frank Lucas in an interview with the New York Magazine. In the heydays, Frank Lucas would bring in $1 million USD cash on a daily basis. He was BIG PIMPIN’ in the 70s

Some may wonder what prompted Denzel Washington to accept the role of a heroin kingpin. In most of his film works, he often plays law enforcements figures and military servicemen. After you have a chance to watch AMERICAN GANGSTER, you’ll appreciate the great paradox presented in AMERICAN GANGSTER. There is a message to be delivered: every man has to pay the price for his wrongdoing no matter which side you’re on.

As an organized crime leader, Frank Lucas is a family man and lives by a strict code of disciplines. When he prospers, his mother along with his brothers relocates from North Carolina to New Jersey. As the good straight-up cop, Detective Richie Roberts attends night school to study law and attempts to nail the crooked cops but his personal life is a total mess.

Whether you’re a fan of Denzel Washington or Russell Crowe, it is indeed a treat to watch these two Oscar winners to star in AMERICAN GANGSTER. During 158 minutes of viewing pleasure, they only appear together on the screen for the last twenty minutes. It is no doubt that they both put in some serious efforts in preparing for their roles.

Some may find AMERICAN GANGSTER more like a documentary than a feature film. It is based on a true story but according to director Ridley Scott, nothing was exaggerated. However, the real life Frank Lucas gave a thumbs-up for Denzel’s performance but admitted that this film is only about 20% accurate. Nonetheless, this film has top-notch actors that put together an excellent film for the audience.

Here’s something gossip that the moviegoers might be interested to know. AMERICAN GANGSTER was supposed to go into production in 2005. Denzel Washington was cast to portray Frank Lucas while Benicio del Toro was hired to play Detective Richie Roberts. When the project was doomed, Denzel Washington was paid $20 millions according to his pay-or-play contract with the studio and Benicio del Toro received $5 millions. When the film resumed production, Denzel Washington met with his real life counterpart and learned to speak with the southern accent.

Nominations for the 65th Golden Globe Awards were announced today in Los Angeles. AMERICAN GANGSTER has a few nominations, including best picture in drama, best actor in drama and best director. And I have high hopes for this film to win a few Oscars, especially for Denzel Washington. I’ll be rejoiced to see Denzel Washington to win his third Academy Award in his career.

而他是整個紐約市唯一沒被感染的人，其他的人已經變成怕光的人型獸，幾乎只剩下覓食的本能，只有在晚上出沒…，大部份的場景與主戲完全是一人一狗，導演那種孤寂空間無助害怕的氣氛控制的極好，空無一人的紐約市也唯有在電影裡看得到。我想最後導演想表現的應該是一種警告吧！對無知的人類…。

【亞馬遜悲歌】彌勒熊則要大大推薦，雖然本片上片時間一延再延，不過並不影響到他的感人程度，全片改編自真人真事，最後還有真人現身，相當令人動容。主要說到不畏危險困難的西班牙裔的傳教士們進入亞馬遜流域，企圖感化當地土著犧牲自己的故事。

不過，在蠻前面那五、六名犧牲者即已身亡，真正讓我感動的是，進入以土著角度的部份，我們所不瞭解的那些土著以及他們因為語言文化之不同引起的誤會，還有他們習慣裡的殺戮與生存必要的殘暴準則，自己族裡也是充滿仇恨與恐懼的生活著。

而傳教士遺孀，最後居然不畏危險的進入他們生活的環境裡過活，並給予無私醫療與精神上實質的幫助，慢慢一點一滴的將宗教以及文明的思惟，帶入幾乎過活著接近蠻荒的土著的生活中，而旁白的小男主角最後長大之後，重回這塊處女地，卻真正的要面對殺父仇人對他的懺悔告解，他要如何看待這個結果呢…。

為了完整重現這部改編自真人實事的電影，粉紅佳人不斷帶給大家驚奇，還在電影中大膽露點，與對手男演員激情上演做愛鏡頭，令觀眾看得血脈賁張，讓大家被電影嚇的冷汗直流之際，心情還會隨著性愛鏡頭轉恐為熱，是一種奇特的觀影體驗。

粉紅佳人表示，會接這部電影的最主要原因，是因為:「這部電影真的是他X的恐怖到極點了」!並且她也認為這部電影是非常的精神層面，「簡直瘋狂到了極點」!也是因為如此，在看到劇本後她便毫不猶豫的答應演出，即使在電影中必須寬衣解帶，她也爽快褪衣，激情吶喊，十分的享受這種難得的演出體驗。

不過，她倒是非常討厭被追趕的感覺，無論在真實生活中被自己的男友或是自己的小狗追趕，都已經讓她覺得夠恐怖了，然而這部電影大部分的時間她卻要在黑暗中被不知名的東西追殺，更是讓她雞皮疙瘩狂掉一地，不時的就覺得全身發毛!也因此在參與電影演出時，觀眾也會不自覺得被她的驚恐情緒所影響，開始不住的皮皮挫了!

【惡作劇之刎】的故事薇多莉亞（夏儂索莎蒙 飾）收到姐姐卡洛琳（紅粉佳人 飾）的邀請而前往巴黎遊玩，姊姊帶她到彷彿迷宮的地下古墓隧道參加電音派對，想要在這個派對狂歡糜爛整晚，但是不久後她就和卡洛琳走散，在瘋狂尋找卡洛琳的同時，竟然發現卡洛琳已慘死在隧道裡。
