Gossip Girl would not believe it. Serena van der Woodsen herself, Blake Lively, that vivacious blonde with the warm smile, revealed to the UK Independent that in real life she is nowhere near as confident as her on-screen characters.

She couldn’t even believe it when she got a part for the film The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, co-starring Alan Arkin and Julianne Moore.

Hootie-hoo!

We love it when Julianna Margulies hits the red carpet.

It means we get a glimpse of our favorite celebrity arm-candy, her husband Keith Lieberthal.

Last night Keith and Julianna attended the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of her new film City Island, co-starring Emily Mortimer, Andy Garcia and Alan Arkin.

While her man is hot, that dress was not.

Is Jules expecting?

Or is cream satin doing her zero favors? We can’t remember the last time we saw a breast so mistreated by a dress.

Or should we call it “Little Miss Sunshine Cleaning”?

Produced by Peter Saraf and Marc Turtletaub, the team behind 2006’s wonderful and winning indie phenom Little Miss Sunshine, Sunshine Cleaning shares a great deal of that film’s DNA: an off-beat sensibility, a commitment to quirkiness and Alan Arkin as a crotchy patriarch. But what made Miss Sunshine so compelling was its ability to bring levity to life’s traumas.

Sunshine Cleaning wallows in them instead.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
