Shiloh is not a bad name, as far as celebrity baby names go. Jolie could have come up with something really bizarre. Woody Allen and Mia Farrow'>Mia Farrow had one biological child together, a son he named Satchel. After all the ugliness when Woody's affair Soon-Yi was discovered, Satchel changed his name to Seamus, I read somewhere that it was his decision. At least two of the adopted kids also changed their names. Woody Allen and Soon-Yi have two adopted daughters named Bechet and Maisie.

If you listed the most influential people of the last hundred years, three at the top of the list would be Einstein, Freud and Marx; all were Jews. Many more belong on the list, yet Jews comprise at most less than 3 percent of the United States population. They are an amazing people. Imagine the persecution they endured over the centuries: pogroms, temple burnings, Cossack raids, uprootings of families, their dispersal to the winds and the Holocaust. After the Diaspora, they could not own land or worship in much of the world; they were prohibited from voting and were told where to live.

My father was a lawyer in partnership with two Jews, who were close to us" - CAROLL O'CONNOR.."That the Jews are connected with God in a special way and that God does not allow that bond to fail is entirely obvious. We wait for the instant in which Israel will say yes to Christ, but we know that it has a special mission in history now... which is significant for the world" - POPE BENEDICT XVI.."I've always been the victim of my own success. I have so many years of sort of the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval stamped on my forehead. I sort of wear that the way the Jews wore the star, you know, and I'm proud of it; the Jews were proud to wear the star as well" - STEVEN SPIELBERG (most successful filmmaker since the advent of film).."I decided at age 9, but I was reinforced at age 13 when a teacher told me I had talent.

I have so many years of sort of the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval stamped on my forehead.

I can't say she really motivated me because I already knew. I knew I had talent. I went to the Jewish community theater and got in plays there. Then I went for the movies" - RICHARD DREYFUSS (b.

AYOUB French critics coined the term "film noir" in 1946 after a series of brooding dramas from wartime Hollywood finally made their French debut. Yet, says Sheri Chinen Biesen, noir is often seen as a predominantly postwar phenomenon. She argues that many critics and film historians have ignored the genre's links to World War II. Some have even echoed the screenwriter, director, and critic Paul Schrader, who wrote that the war temporarily pre-empted a flowering noir trend. It's just the opposite, says Ms. Biesen, a film historian at Rowan University. In Blackout: World War II and the Origins of Film Noir (Johns Hopkins University Press), she shows how the film industry and journalists of the period were well aware of what some called a "red meat" genre. The author links noir's violent, shadowy aesthetic to wartime constraints on Hollywood, including such practical concerns as the rationing of film stock and electricity; the desire to disguise recycled sets in darkness, fog, rain, or smoke; the loss of thousands of personnel to military duty; and the problem of frequent blackouts and dimouts in Los Angeles. "We lit our sets with cigarette butts," Robert Mitchum once joked.

The 26-year-old Canadian, who plays sexy castaway Kate Austen, is fascinated by Johansson's career because of the types of roles she is offered. Lilly explains, "She's intensely successful in the way I'd like to be if I do film. "People don't look at her and think, 'This is the next girl for the cutesy pie romantic comedy.' They think, 'This is the next girl for the really meaningful, dramatic Woody Allen film.' "Jeez, that's a compliment."

Industry publication The Hollywood Reporter said Wednesday that the 25-year-old who played the cuckolded wife of her real-life partner Heath Ledger in Ang Lee's gay cowboy love story, had already signed on for the new film. But, in typical Woody Allen'>Woody Allen style, the movie's plot is being kept under tight wraps, although the Reporter said it would most likely focus on young Americans in the City of Light. Production on the new movie is slated to begin in the middle of this year, the industry magazine said. Williams was nominated for a best supporting actress Oscar for her role as the tragic Alma Del Mar in the movie that won three Oscars on March 5, but lost out on the acting nominations for Williams, Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal. Allen 70, who has made 38 films since 1966 had a success last year with the British-set comedy of manners "Match Point" starring Scarlett Johansson.

  • http://www.smh.com.au/news/entertainment/back-to-basic-icepick-and-all/2006/ 03/30/1143441266908.html Back to Basic, icepick and all By Dan Glaister April 1, 2006 We've seen a lot of Sharon Stone'>Sharon Stone of late. The 48-year-old actor popped up at the Oscars, her backcombed hair winning her all the wrong sort of attention. A few days later she was in Israel, offering to "kiss just about anyone" to help bring peace to the Middle East. This week she's on screen in her latest film, Basic Instinct 2. Wearing seemingly nothing but a white fur coat and leather boots, Stone talked before the film's world premiere about sex and sexiness and sexuality. "I think it's so different in Europe, where you have only to walk down the street and remember you're a woman," she said at a press conference. "In the US we tend to erase women after they're 40, and it's a period when women become their most interesting. They are sexual in a different and alluring way. "This film expresses that sexual allure in an unabashed and provocative way, in a way that is gritty and dangerous." There was more nudity in Basic Instinct 2, she said, and it was kinkier. Basic Instinct was one of the iconic films of the 1990s, and the sequel sees Stone's character, Catherine Tramell, take her nefarious ways to London. In the opening scene she is having sex in a sports car with former footballer Stan Collymore. Posters suggest there may be a reprise of the famous moment from Basic Instinct - the shot of Stone uncrossing her legs to reveal an absence of underwear. That made the first film, prompting Stone to exclaim that the audience could "see all the way to Nebraska". Which Sharon Stone'>Sharon Stone was talking at her press conference is open to question: the sex-bomb star, the activist, the mother, possibly all three. The contradiction between her personas is one that she, and those around her, have noted. As her mother observed: "Sharon has been posing since the day she arrived. She came out posing." What everyone agrees on is that Stone is fiercely ambitious and very bright: the daughter of an Avon lady and a factory worker, she has an IQ of 153. Growing up in rural Pennsylvania, Stone soon realised that even the plainest Jane could reinvent herself. "I wanted to fit in," she told an interviewer in 1994. "So I got fashion magazines and I gained some weight and, you know, bought some tight jeans and some high heels and dyed my hair and got contact lenses and went to college." Shortly after that she was crowned Miss Crawford County. Following a stint studying fine art and creative writing and working at McDonald's, she secured a modelling contract and made her way to New York. Stone's break in films came in 1980, when Woody Allen cast her as "pretty girl on train" in Stardust Memories. From there she became what Basic Instinct screenwriter Joe Eszterhas called a "B-movie starlet". Her first major role came with Arnold Schwarzenegger in Total Recall, a role she secured after posing for Playboy. The 17th actress to audition for Basic Instinct, she was perfect for the part. "Sharon is evil," Eszterhas remembers director Paul Verhoeven telling him. Her chance to put Nebraska behind her came with Martin Scorsese's Casino. The resulting Golden Globe and Oscar nomination should have been the start of a glittering career, but instead it was followed by a series of poor parts in poor films, from Sphere to Catwoman. Her private life was equally uneven: "If I'd had one more thing go wrong I'd have been a country and western song." She endured two brief marriages, including one to newspaper editor Phil Bronstein. Childless, she has adopted two children, declaring recently: "Adoption is God's other big birth canal." She has been a resolute campaigner for AIDS sufferers, chairing the American Foundation for AIDS Research for 12 years. She has also campaigned against poverty, stealing the show at the recent world economic forum in Davos, Switzerland, when she called for people to give money to buy mosquito nets for African children. Now she has returned to the vehicle that brought her fame. Stone, reportedly, had a controlling hand in Basic Instinct 2, and secured a deal that would see her paid $13.6 million even had it not been made. Despite declaring eight years ago that "sexpots age fast in Hollywood", she has again embraced the role of icepick-wielding uber-vamp. As she once said: "If you have a vagina and an attitude, that's a deadly combination in this business." Basic Instinct 2 is in cinemas now.

  • TG Magazin, Italy's leading media publication published the following article: http://www.tgcom.mediaset.it/tgmagazine/articoli/articolo299995.shtml. This is an exact translation of the original Italian article, named Relazioni voi e i Famosi (Relationships with The Famous). RELATIONSHIPS: YOU AND THE FAMOUS Your connection to the stars How much do you have in common with Paris Hilton, Brad Pitt and Demi Moore? If you always dreamt of being involved with an international celebrity, it's time you found out what your chances are of making them fall in love with you or having a relationship with them. All you have to do is enter a few personal details - such as your birth date - and send them off with a click of your mouse. Within minutes, your questions will be answered and you will find out whether your dreams can become reality. Top Synergy (www.topsynergy.com) is one of America's authoritative sites dealing with "relationships" or interpersonal relations. It will provide you with useful tips and analyses as to how to improve your relationships with your colleagues and life partners. The segment on "You & the famous" contains a very long alphabetized list of stars: >From Al Pacino to Woody Allen and anywhere from Britney Spears, David Beckham, George W. Bush, Nicole Kidman, Tony Blair and Shakira in between. The list includes celebrities from all walks of life: music, film, politics and sports. Almost all of them are there - or at least the most famous among them: those we would all like to share a personal relationship with, at least once in a lifetime. To test the extent of your compatibility with any of the celebrities, all you have to do is click on them in order to read about the most hidden aspects of the VIP in question. Once you enter your personal details, the results of your compatibility test with the chosen celebrity will be e-mailed to you. The analyzed sections are divided between emotional relationships and work-related ties: long-term relationships, romance, friendship, sexual attraction and a long list of relationships in which the assumption is that you are the boss, the consultant, the employer or the spiritual guide of the VIP you have selected. In any case, you will be told to what extent the intensity of the cosmic energies support the different types of relationships and to what degree of passion, commitment and intimacy the relationship will be able to function or not. Want an example? About Paris Hilton we are told that she needs love and affection and that in relationships, she develops a very childish and dependent behavior toward her partner. She experiences a great deal of difficulty with social relationships, but her basic character is warm, healthful and full of understanding toward others. Nonetheless, she has a very unconventional and open attitude toward sex, romance and love. The relationship that suits her best is one that is intellectual and spiritual with a partner that allows her ample space and does not show a tendency toward jealousy and possessiveness. The site also provides each and every celebrity's astral profile, which is very useful for pinpointing compatibility or the lack thereof. The results of your chances and potential compatibility with the celebrity you have selected from the point of view of mutual passion, intimacy, commitment and synergy are based on mathematic and astral calculations. Want to know something about David Beckham? When it comes to romantic relationships, he prefers intelligent women with a well-honed sense of humor to women with merely outward beauty. He loves women who make demands and look for answers and in order to be fulfilled in a relationship, he needs to share ideas, places and opinions and always learn something new with his partner. And if Madonna has crossed your minds, you should know that she always loves to be the center of attention and cannot tolerate suffocating relationships; however, all things told, she is hopelessly romantic and an idealist.
  • I like this kind of stuff (and *love* the Oscars), hope it's okay to post here seeing as it's not really gossip. From here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/4723752.stm Academy Awards 2006 trivia PICS: Brokeback Mountain leads an open race for the Oscars Dame Judi Dench'>Judi Dench is nominated for Mrs Henderson Presents Steven Spielberg is one of the most successful Oscars producers The Academy Awards will be handed out in Hollywood on 5 March. Now in its 78th year, the ceremony has long fascinated movie fans with its mix of glamour, suspense and surprise. Here are some of snippets of trivia about this year's event: Brokeback Mountain leads the nominations with eight. It is the most open Oscars race since 2000, the last time a film topped the list with eight nominations (American Beauty). The leading films in subsequent years have received between 11-13 nominations each. It is a good year for Oscars newcomers - 14 of the 20 acting nominees have not been nominated before, the highest number for nine years. The remaining six have 13 previous nominations and four awards between them. It is a good year for low-budget films - only one of the best picture nominees had a budget over $15m (£8.6m), according to the Internet Movie Database. Munich is the most expensive, with a reported $75m (£43m) budget. Among the best picture nominees, Crash led the US box office takings at the time of the nominations with $55m (£32m), followed by Brokeback Mountain's $42m (£24m). For the first time in 25 years, all five nominees for best picture have also been nominated for best director - only the fourth time in Oscars history that the shortlists have been the same. At 71, Dame Judi Dench'>Judi Dench is the oldest best actress nominee since 80-year-old Jessica Tandy won for Driving Miss Daisy in 1990. Dame Judi is nominated for her role in Mrs Henderson Presents. Keira Knightley, 20, who is shortlisted for Pride and Prejudice, would be the youngest best actress winner if she won. The current record is held by Marlee Matlin, who won for Children of a Lesser God in 1987, aged 21. If Heath Ledger wins best actor for Brokeback Mountain, the 26-year-old would be the youngest winner of the award. Adrien Brody, who was 29 when he won for The Pianist in 2003, currently holds the record. Ledger's girlfriend Michelle Williams is nominated for best supporting actress. The pair met while filming Brokeback Mountain and had a daughter in October. George Clooney is the first person to be nominated for acting in and directing different films in the same year. He is up for best supporting actor for his role in Syriana, plus best director and best original screenplay for Good Night, and Good Luck. Clooney is only the fifth person to be nominated for acting, directing and writing in the same year - following Orson Welles (1942), Woody Allen (1978), Warren Beatty (1979 and 1982) and Roberto Benigni (1999). With Munich, Steven Spielberg has produced a total of five films with best picture nominations - one behind record-holder Stanley Kramer and tied with Francis Ford Coppola. He has also been nominated for best director six times. Woody Allen has received his 21st career nomination for best original screenplay for Match Point. He has received more screenplay nominations than any other writer in Oscars history with 14. He has also been nominated for best director six times and best actor once, winning a total of three times. Composer John Williams has two nominations for best original score for writing music for Munich and Memoirs of a Geisha. It takes his career nominations tally to 40 - one behind best score record-holder Alfred Newman. Williams has won five times.
