Nothing brings people together quite like the threat of death.

As Sandra Bullock once told Keanu, relationships that start under intense circumstances never last...so it’s a good thing Toni Collette and Chris Rock are just friends.

Collette says she and Rock bonded for life after he comforted her during a traumatically turbulent flight from New York to Los Angeles.

Uplifting and unexpected, The Black Balloon, writer-director Elissa Down’s touching semi-autobiographical film centers around Thomas (19-year-old Rhys Wakefield in a remarkable performance) as he tries to fit into to his family’s new home. Desperate to assimilate and win the affections of Jackie (Gemma Ward), Thomas has to grapple with his pregnant mother (the imminently-watchable Toni Collete), a father who likes to consult with his teddy bear, Rex (Erik Thomson) and his severely autistic brother, Charlie (Luke Ford).

He lived happily ever after with Bo Derek and never gave Carrie a second thought.

John Corbett, aka Aidan from Sex and the City, arrives at Saturday’s 30th Anniversary Carousel Of Hope Ball at the Beverly Hilton Hotel with his longtime girlfriend, the original perfect "10", Bo Derek, looking foxy! 

He must be shaping up for his leading role opposite Toni Collette in Showtime’s new series The United States of Tara developed by indie It Girl Diablo Cody and produced by Steven Spielberg. It's gonna be awesome.

Is there no stopping her? Hollywood’s latest darling, Diablo Cody has another feather in her cap; Showtime has ordered 12 half-hour episodes of The United States of Tara, a comedy by the Oscar-winning screenwriter of Juno.

Toni Collette stars as a wife and mother with dissociative identity disorder. John Corbett (Aiden from Sex and the City) plays her husband.

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!
