from the soundtrack of my life
a 'glee' moment

darren criss
and
olivia newton john

darren criss has proven to be an amazing talent. he grabs hold of a song and makes it his own. and he ain't bad to look at either.

This 'Gatsby' is Not 'Great'. It Is Not Even Good.

this gatsby is mediocre at best. more like 'the meh gatsby'. for once i should have listened to the great majority of critics. so i have to go along with the vast majority. it is a monumental bore and now qualifies as the worst film of 2012 thus far. it is even worse than 'oz the great and powerful. that's saying a lot. leo was wasted. in fact for the first time ever i will say that he, one of my favorites, was awful. carey mulligan? why? why do directors still want this woman in their films. she is a vacant actress. there is nothing there. she is basically expressionless throughout this film as usual.
3d? why? there was no need for this to be filmed in anything but 2d if it needed to be filmed at all. which it was not!
1/2* and i'm being kind.

'Once Upon a Time'

karl lagerfeld's 18 minute short film starring keira knightley as coco chanel's beginnings. 
it's definitely worth having a look.

Who Hasn't Fallen in Love with Olivia Pope and Kerry Washington

kerry washington and her alter ego olivia pope are kicking butt on 'scandal'. she graces the cover of 'elle' this month as the second season of her hit series comes to an end. it's not officially renewed but there's not a chance in hell it won't be.

For Your Consideration

i love 'scandal'. actually it is one of the best of tv. guillermo diaz as huck is amazing. he deserves an emmy nomination (supporting actor) for his work here. the powers that be had best submit the episode 'seven: fifty-two' that shows how brilliant and versatile he is as an actor. he has my vote.



'The Last Goodbye'

the character of kyle bishop did not survive the dying 'smash'. but they gave him a fitting jeff buckley song for 'his last goodbye'. his character may be the only true 'kind' character on the show. his only motivation was to make 'hit list' better. what he got was killed. well at least he will not be around for the eventual funeral of 'smash'
