The Big Picture

Only one film made money in the double-digit millions this weekend, and it wasn't the new entry, Awake. Enchanted topped the box office for the second straight weekend, more than doubling the cash grab of the second place finisher, This Christmas, which I keep hearing people mix up with The Perfect Holiday, which stars Morris Chestnut as a department-store Santa Claus.

1. Enchanted - $17 million
2. This Christmas - $8.4 million
3. Beowulf $7.8 million
4. Awake - $6 million
5. Hitman - $5.8 million
6. Fred Claus - $5.5 million
7. August Rush - $5.1 million
8. No Country for Old Men - $4.5 million
9. Bee Movie - $4.4 million
10. American Gangster - $4.2 million

In case you had no idea what Judd Apatow's next movie would be about, it's weed, dude. Dude, weed. Weed, dude. Dude, dude, weed, dude. Dude, weed, dude. He's producing Pineapple Express, the title of which is explained in this extended clip at JoBlo. In case you didn't know what it means, it refers to a kind of weed, dude. Dude, weed. Seth Rogen and James Franco, Apatow veterans from the Freaks and Geeks days, are starring as the lead stoners.

I talked to Judd Apatow just before Thanksgiving when he was honored at the Behind the Camera Awards and I asked him absolutely nothing about this movie, but you'll see where it all ties in at the end. His top five movies might surprise you.

How do you feel about this award?

When you make a movie where you see a baby exit a woman, you don't expect to be honored. It's very exciting.

How are you dealing with the writer's strike?

My pencil is down, I'm not doing any writing. I don't even have any creative thoughts. My daughter's on a plane with me and I say "Daddy is not being creative, he's not doing fantasy doll land with you because that's a form of writing." I support the writers. I think what people don't understand is that the studios are asking the writers to take a big cut in pay. It's as simple as that. Most writers will go years between getting a film produced or a TV job. It's actually a real struggle for most writers, and they can't survive if you cut back some of these rates. I think it's really unfair and we're striking over it. It makes me feel good, it feels ethically correct and I think it's good for my cholesterol.

What would you say are your top five films of all time at the moment?

That's an ever-changing list. I'll say, off the top of my head, I usually go to Terms of Endearment, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Harold and Maude, Punch Drunk Love, and let's throw in The Godfather.

What are your holiday plans?

I wish I could tell you it was going to be exciting and I was gonna be hanging out with Mariah Carey or something. My favorite part about Thanksgiving? The haze I get into when I eat a lot of turkey. It's almost like being high. Just sitting on a couch unable to speak.

The Kennedy Center, where the United States government actually honors celebrities in the entertainment field for some reason, honored Steve Martin and Martin Scorsese for their lifetime achievements, along with musicians Brian Wilson, Diana Ross and Leon Fleisher. Variety has the lowdown on the event itself, where right-wing nutjobs like the entire executive branch get to rub elbows with the left wing elitists they constantly deride.

(Anyone want to explain why advocating socialized health care and fighting against tax cuts for the rich qualifies as "elitist?")

Anyway, Martin Scorsese is honored all the time, so I want to focus more on Steve Martin, one of my personal heroes. He's just released a memoir called "Born Standing Up," about his early career as a stand-up comedian, which is significant because ever since he quit that realm of comedy at the height of his popularity, he's always pressed forward in films and in writing, and he's rarely spoken of his rise to fame. In the introduction, he refers to the book as a biography - "I'm writing about someone I used to know."

The Steve Martin we all used to know is perhaps best exemplified in The Jerk, which you can watch in its entirety right here on Fancast. Completely goofball comedy that puts much of the goofball comedy of today to shame. In fact, current comedy goldsmith Judd Apatow used The Jerk to excellent effect in Freaks and Geeks. One of the geeks finally got the chance to date a cheerleader he'd pined for, only to discover she wasn't all she cracked up to be because she didn't like The Jerk. That, of course, means she was not worthy.

Now, Steve Martin is an accomplished writer, an art collector, and he balances good, interesting movies like Shopgirl (based on his own novella) with unfortunate paychecks like Bringing Down the House. The fact that he's more erudite and droll now stands in contrast with the crazed idiot humor he cut his teeth on, which might be why it took him this long to feel comfortable with reflecting on his rise to fame. He hasn't been honored with awards nearly as much as he should have been, so it's good to see the Kennedy Center step up to the plate.

Or maybe George W. Bush just really snickered a lot at Sgt. Bilko.

The Mist is an underrated, underseen film, but that's not stopping Frank Darabont from teaming up with Stephen King again - this time to adapt his story "The Long Walk" into a film. Rotten Tomatoes is saying it likely won't happen until Darabont is done with Fahrenheit 451.

The story tells of a futuristic foot race where competitors are shot when they stop walking. The last man walking wins. A movie constantly on the go is the next hurdle Darabont faces.

"Certainly you can't get too handheld with it because then you'd have an image bouncing for the length of a feature film," said Darabont. "I think there's got to be some stabilizing gizmos that I can use to get some of that coverage but I'm already thinking about that."

Darabont distinguished between his styles for The Mist and his previous films. Where he spent time carefully planning on The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile, he took a fast and furious approach to The Mist. That style would also be appropriate for The Long Walk.

"That would also be, I think, probably the more ragged and loose and documentary kind of feel. It would probably be an even lower budget than this one was."

Continuing our Steve Martin extravaganza this week, Pink Panther 2 has just brought on Molly Sims to join his Inspector Clouseau. She'll also be joining Jim Carrey in a comedy called Yes Man, according to Hollywood Reporter.

In "Yes," Carrey plays a man who decides to say "yes" to every request and opportunity that comes his way. Sims plays the ex-wife he can't get out of his head. Zooey Deschanel and Bradley Cooper co-star in the Warner Bros./Village Roadshow film.

In "Panther," Sims plays a news anchor who chronicles the misadventures of Martin's bumbling Inspector Jacques Clouseau. Emily Mortimer, Andy Garcia and Alfred Molina also appear in the Columbia/MGM production.

God, I miss The Daily Show. I miss Letterman. I'm going to miss Scrubs.

Ahem.

The negotiations between the big billion-dollar studios and the few million-dollar writers with hundreds of starving artists attached are continuing today. The studios are set to finish their propoal, including a flat rate for streaming online content, and the WGA will make a counter-offer after that. Hollywood Wiretap has a good summation of the latest news, and it's a weird mix of nice and nasty.

An ad running in today’s trades, however, seems to do away with the rancor and presents a softer side of the AMPTP. In the ad, the group says its proposal isn’t a “take-it-or-leave-it offer…It is designed to allow both sides to engage in the kind of substantive give-and-take negotiation that can lead to common ground. The WGA leadership asked for five days to respond. So with the ball in the WGA’s court, we look forward to what they have to say when we meet today.”

“This is not a zero-sum campaign where there is one winner and one loser,” the ad continues. “We need the writers and the writers need us. And we need to work together if we are to navigate the rapids of this increasingly complex, high-tech economy.”

That sounds nice, doesn't it? But then this happens.

With the press blackout lifted last week, several top company heads called members of the Fourth Estate on Friday. The intent seemed to be to convey management frustrations with the guild and its chief negotiator, WGA West executive director David Young, says the Hollywood Reporter.

“I do think this whole thing calls into question David Young’s ability to make a deal,” a top management exec said. “He has no experience in these sorts of negotiations, and so perhaps there is something to that theory that they’re not capable of making a deal.

“You can say what you want about the AMPTP, but for 20 years they’ve been able to make a deal,” the exec added. “The fact is that you have to wonder about the current leadership at the WGA and its ability to get something done here.”

The fact that writers often don't retain the copyright on their own work should help you say what you will about the AMPTP. Or maybe this will.

Meanwhile, a Hollywood mogul, summing up the negotiations thus far, told Nikki Finke “We’re tough, and they’re stupid.”

This is tangentially movie-related, but I felt it deserved some attention. The rabid FCC chairman Kevin J. Martin is under investigation for misconduct, according to Variety.

Rep. John Dingell (D-Mich.), head of the House Commerce Committee, sent Martin a letter Monday stating: "Given several events and proceedings over the past year, I am rapidly losing confidence that the commission has been conducting its affairs in an appropriate manner.

"While this is certainly not true for every commission proceeding, a trend appears to be emerging of short-circuiting procedural norms, suggesting a larger breakdown at the agency."

The move is unusual, but offers more proof that the Democrat-controlled Congress is ratcheting up its pressure on Martin -- and insiders say it's only going to get more intense.

Dingell asked for responses to questions raised in large part by allegations sent to one of his colleagues, Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), who chairs the Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations.

"I have received several complaints from the public and professionals within the communications industry about how chairman Martin is conducting business at the FCC," Stupak said in a statement. "It is one thing to be an aggressive leader, but many of the allegations indicate possible abuse of power and an attempt to intentionally keep fellow commissioners in the dark."

Last week, Martin presided over a rancorous commission meeting in which two commissioners -- one a fellow Republican -- accused the chairman of suppressing data that contradicted his policy objectives for the cable TV industry. Martin denied the charges.

Earlier last month, Martin announced a plan to relax the newspaper-broadcast cross-ownership ban subject to conditions.

Members of both parties in Congress criticized Martin's cable policy objectives; both media companies and consumer groups attacked the cross-ownership plan.

No, not in our hearts, and no, they're not about to CG Russell Crowe in over Brad Pitt in Meet Joe Black like they pulled with Hayden Christensen and the poor sap who played the original ghost of Anakin Skywalker kickin' it on the Ewok world. Although, come to think of it, I wouldn't mind seeing if Crowe could handle the climax of Seven better than WHAT'S IN DA BOOOOOX? did.

Anyway, Brad Pitt bailed out on State of Play, a movie he'd been trying to make for two years, but he couldn't settle on a script. Russell Crowe has stepped in to pick up the slack, Variety says.

Crowe joins Edward Norton, Helen Mirren, Rachel McAdams, Jason Bateman and Robin Wright Penn, who were all locked into pay-or-play deals when Brad Pitt abruptly exited the project just before Thanksgiving. Producers are Andrew Hauptman and Working Title partners Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner. Matthew Michael Carnahan wrote the script.

Crowe will play a politico-turned-journalist who spearheads his newspaper's investigation into a killing that leads to a fast-rising pol (Norton). The journalist faces two conflicts: He once ran campaigns for the pol and was his confidant, and the journo develops a romance with the pol's estranged wife (Wright Penn).

Unclear is whether Universal will take legal action against Pitt after issuing a statement upon his departure that it would leave all options open. Pitt's reps at the time indicated he wanted to make the movie but wasn't pleased with the script.

Shutter Island is shaping up to be a serious Oscar contender just on the people involved. It's already being directed by Martin Scorsese and it stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo and now Ben Kingsley, according to Variety.

Leonardo DiCaprio will star as a U.S. marshal who is sent to the remote New England island in summer 1954 to investigate the disappearance of a patient from the island's prison/mental hospital. Mark Ruffalo has already boarded the project. Kingsley will portray the mental hospital's chief physician.

Laeta Kalogridis adapted the screenplay based on a novel by Dennis Lehane.

I'm still annoyed that Avi Arad strong-armed Sam Raimi into shoehorning Venom into Spider-Man 3, or else we might've gotten Kingsley as the Vulture, which would have been ten times better.

The Vice Versa riff 17, starring Matthew Perry as a guy who turns into Zac Efron and goes to high school, has new women in the cast to join Leslie Mann. Michelle Trachtenberg and Melora Hardin have hooked up with the Burr Steers movie, which should still be a western because his name is Burr Steers.

In a scenario that turns the concept of "Big" on its head, the Jason Filardi-penned script follows a middle-age father who wakes up to find he's 17 again. In order to be close to his children, he enrolls in the same school as they attend.

I was about to champion another round of body-switching comedies, but this is the part that makes this creepy as all get out.

Trachtenberg is playing Efron/Perry's daughter, who doesn't know that the boy she is crushing on is her father. Hardin is the principal at the school.

Yeeeeeeeeesh.

You may have heard tell of this by now, but Katherine Heigl is interviewed in Vanity Fair, and says that she feels Knocked Up, the movie she starred in, was a bit sexist, and that the women were humorless and the guys were all lovable. Jeffrey Wells at Hollywood Elsewhere expounds a bit on the details.

In an interview in January's Vanity Fair, Heigl says "it was hard for me to love [Apatow's] movie" because it's "a little sexist...it paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men as goofy, fun-loving guys."

No one would argue that Knocked Up's attitude isn't on the guy-skewing side, and yes, Heigl and female costar Leslie Mann, who plays Paul Rudd's unsatisfied wife, do come off as a little scolding. But every comedy needs "straight men" to bounce the humor off of, and that's their function -- to ask for a little maturity and sensitivity from men who are reluctant, to say the least, to provide this. At first, anyway.

My thought on the whole thing was that, even if the women are a little shrill and miserable, as a woman is wont to be after getting knocked up by a porn-obsessed stoner, that was all balanced out by the men all being complete and utter losers. They even fail at being porn-obsessed! How can you be entering the porn business and you haven't heard of Mr. Skin? Search for "celebrity nude scenes," and he's right there. (Don't bother denying that you've ever searched for celebrity nude scenes, either)

Superbad (Watch trailers and clips): Seth Rogen started writing this when he was 13, and a lot of times, it shows. The menstrual blood bit in particular smacks of teenage writing. It's the story of Evan (Michael Cera) and Seth (Jonah Hill), who are trying desperately to get laid before high school ends and they go their separate ways. Honestly, if Rogen was as annoying in his youth as his on-screen counterpart gets, one might begin to understand a few things about the saga of the lonesome loser. Still, it's a pretty funny movie, especially when Rogen shows up with Bill Hader as the worst cops ever outside of the kind that beat people up for no reason. And, of course, there's McLovin, as played by the genuinely nerdy Christopher Mintz-Plasse. This guy seems to be the real deal, which makes his role as the improbable wild man that much more appealing. It's a dirty adolescent comedy that's not trying to be anything more than that, until the ending somehow makes these painfully awkward dorks even more painfully awkward, despite their apparent mild success with the ladies.

Pirates of the Caribbean 3: 3 Pirates 3 Caribbean (Watch trailers and clips): I think we've all heard all we need to hear about these movies, don't you agree?

The Nanny Diaries (Watch the trailer): Scarlett Johansson's light comedy that no one saw. Go rent Ghost World instead.

Battlestar Galactica: Razor: Finally, some new BSG. Which is all we're getting until April, and the last season ended in March. Stupid stingy Sci-Fi network.

Johnny Depp might be joining up with Michael Mann for some blood-soaked gangsterism, considering the role of bank robber John Dillinger, according to Hollywood Reporter. This sounds really interesting, until you realize that Michael Mann has a tendency to take exciting and intriguing subject matter and somehow transform it into something dull and uninvolving. I mean, the man made Muhammad Ali boring. How is that even possible?

Mann has long been interested in mounting a screen adaptation of Brian Burrough's nonfiction book "Public Enemies: America's Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933-34" for Universal; at one point, Leonardo DiCaprio was attached to the project, but DiCaprio is headed into Martin Scorsese's "Shutter Island."

But Mann -- who has considered taking the helm of Columbia's spy thriller "Edwin A. Salt" but has not committed to that project because he believes it needs a rewrite -- has an open slot.

As for Depp, he was to have starred in Warner/Initial Entertainment's "Shantaram" followed by Warner Independent's "The Rum Diaries," but both of those projects were postponed last month, leaving the star with an opening in his schedule.

So Depp and Mann are sitting down this week to discuss the possibility of joining forces; Depp is said to be eyeing the role of bank robber John Dillinger. Along with Mann, Kevin Misher is on board as producer; Robert De Niro and his partner Jane Rosenthal, who originally optioned the book, have been involved as exec producers; and the studio is looking at a March start in Chicago if all the elements come together.

Angelina Jolie has apparently been seeking out her own kind of Bourne Identity, and she may have found it. Variety says that Paramount has bought the "life rights" (an ominous phrase, indeed) to an ex-intelligence agent named Kathi Lynn Austin, and they're planning to turn her experience into an action franchise for Jolie.

Austin, who has most recently worked on contract for the U.N. Security Council, has undertaken field missions in Africa, Europe, Southeast Asia and Central America. The drama will focus on a fictional arms dealer inspired by Victor Bout, the shadowy Russian who is considered one of the world's most prolific dealers in illegal munitions.

Catalyst for the package was [Geyer] Kosinski, who manages Jolie and has looked long and hard for a premise that's rooted in reality and has franchise potential.

Meanwhile, Austin signed with IPG's Joel Gotler to tell her story. After Austin and Gotler met with Kosinski, they developed a pitch that was similar in spirit to "The Bourne Identity." Paramount production president Brad Weston bought it immediately.

So maybe now Jolie won't have to star in iffy stuff like Wanted in order to finance her humanitarian efforts. Maybe she'll even get to fight Matt Damon at some point.

A trio of big-buzz actors has just signed onto Gus Van Sant's Milk, a biopic on the life of the country's first openly gay elected official Harvey Milk. Hollywood Reporter says that Into the Wild's Best Actor contender Emile Hirsch, No Country For Old Men and American Gangster hopeful Josh Brolin and In the Valley of Elah star James Franco have all joined Sean Penn in the cast.

The Focus Features/Groundswell Prods. film stars Penn as Harvey Milk, the country's first openly gay elected official, a San Francisco city supervisor who was assassinated in 1978.

Brolin will play Dan White, the rival politician and supervisor who shot Milk and San Francisco Mayor George Moscone to death at City Hall. Hirsch has been cast as gay rights activist Cleve Jones, an intern and close ally of Milk's, who went on to found the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt. Franco will play Scott Smith, Milk's lover and campaign manager.

Mathieu Amalric, currently receiving rave reviews in the impossible role of a man paralyzed and only able to blink one eye in The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, is now slated to play the next nemesis of James Bond. Empire says that he'll be the one trying to off Daniel Craig in the 22nd Bond movie. TWENTY-SECOND Bond movie. Sorry, that needs to be emphasized. There are 22 "spy in a tuxedo" movies. I fear 22 Fast 22 Furious.

Amalric would not be drawn on details of the character, but said that, yes, he will play the bad guy in the 22nd Bond movie. "I will, it’s true. I play the villain, yes. James Bond," Amalric said. "It has to do with childhood, you know? To be a villain in James Bond is just so funny. I never dreamt about that. It’s not what I want to do with my career. It’s just that I have kids and it’s so funny to do that. But it doesn’t mean that I’m not going to do a very small French film for free with my friends.”

Ray Park has signed on to play the silent ninja warrior Snake-Eyes in the upcoming G.I. Joe movie. Slashfilm says he's a dream choice to take on the role.

Snake-Eyes is a highly-skilled martial artist, disfigured, unable to speak and always wearing a mask, and this is likely why they got Park for the gig. Park has played a number of roles where he gets to look really cool, but he doesn't get to speak. If you saw him as Toad in the first X-Men film, you'll see that his voice is a bit high and squeaky, which is not good for the badasses he can otherwise physically portray. His Darth Maul was overdubbed with a fake evil rumble. All that face paint couldn't make his voice cool.

Park joins Sienna Miller, who's been cast as the sultry Baroness. The trouble is, there are rumors going around about radical changes to the mythos, including the blending of two roles - the nefarious Baroness and the heroic Scarlett. Of course, this could also be early misinformation to throw some eyes off the plot, like the casting of Ken Watanabe in Batman Begins was.

The general scoop of the G.I. Joe story is this. There's an elite military unit called G.I. Joe, which ostensibly could mean it's sort of a gritty throwback squad or a Navy SEAL sort of thing. Everyone's got a cute code name - the general is Hawk, the commander is Duke, the guy under him is Flint, the red-head is Scarlett, the ninja is Snake-Eyes, the guy with all the comm gear is Dialtone or Breaker, the heavy machine gunner with the beard who likes rock 'n' roll is Rock 'N' Roll, etc. The movie is turning G.I.JOE into an acronym rather than a code name for America's daring highly-trained special mission force, and there's talk that it's going to be more of an international coalition. But it's hard to imagine French soldiers charging into battle and yelling "YO JOE!"

The enemy in the G.I. Joe saga is Cobra, a ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world. It's led by a mysterious hooded man known only as Cobra Commander. Ridiculously well-financed and supplied with weapons and high-tech military vehicles by a steel-masked Scottish arms-dealer Destro and his mercenary paramour known as The Baroness, Cobra's villainy in the old 80s cartoon was, well, cartoony, with weather-controlling machines and giant operation bases shaped like snakes. In the comic book series, though, Cobra Commander was less an international terrorist and more a constitutional purist and extreme right-winger. The movie, however, seems to be replacing Cobra Commander entirely, and making Destro the head of the organization. Not a HUGE stretch, really, because Destro often angled for control.

Fanboys are grumbling a bit about these changes, skepticism is in the air, and G.I. Joe doesn't have the draw of giant CGI robot wars like Transformers did to trump all the grousing about the drastic alterations that happened there. We'll have to wait and see if casting a great Snake-Eyes can make up for it.

Revolutionary Road is a movie everyone in their right mind should want to see. That gritty Scorsese golden-boy Leonardo DiCaprio starring opposite that brilliantly daring and fearless Kate Winslet. Two performers of that caliber automatically makes it a film worth seeing when it comes out in 2008.

I had to look at this image for a while before the significance dawned on me. These are the same two crazy lovelorn kids in that one precursor to Pearl Harbor that Celine Dion warbled all over back in 1997. That is how far both of these talented actors have come since James Cameron laid a thin love story over a real-life tragedy in Titanic.

Look at this picture. It doesn't even remind you of Titanic, does it? And they're even looking moony-eyed at each other, and still, it looks entirely different. Maybe it's a Sam Mendes touch, who's Winslet's husband and who's directing Revolutionary Road, a film about "a young couple trying to find fulfillment in an era of conformity," according to Paramount. Regardless, it's something to be thankful for, because I remember thinking Leo was a twerp back then, even with his Growing Pains cred.

Now if only Billy Zane could show up and be awesome more regularly, we'd hit the trifecta.

No Country for Old Men picked up Best Picture accolades from the National Board of Review, which may help to solidify it's place in the Oscar balloting. Then again, Hollywood Reporter says that they've also named The Bucket List as one of their top ten films of the year, which is absolutely impossible. I saw the whole movie in the trailer, and it wasn't that good.

Seriously, the movie is in the trailer, watch it for yourself. Kinda makes you want to pat the National Board of Review's shoulder and say "Nobody cares what you think."

Another momentary flashback here to a decade ago this week, when Miramax released the Gus Van Sant film that would win Robin Williams, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon their Academy Awards. Good Will Hunting, starring and co-written by Affleck and Damon, became a huge success, rocketing its writers to rock star status - not something you see often (although you might be seeing it happen with Juno's Diablo Cody this year).

So let's see what's happened since?

* Affleck jumped at superstardom immediately, taking any ridiculous big-budget thing he could find like Reindeer Games while also doing a lot of work with Kevin Smith to retain soe cred. Then nearly married Jennifer Lopez and became so ridiculously overexposed that it's derailed both of their careers. He's just now taking a different tack and winning back some of his credibility with his directorial debut, Gone Baby Gone. His brother Casey, who played one of their buddies in the film, is just now coming into his own as an actor with this and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.

* Damon, meanwhile, stayed a bit more low-key, working interesting dramas like The Talented Mr. Ripley and eventually forging his own leading action-man saga in a less obnoxious and oddly respected way with the Bourne films.

* Williams secured his niche as a top-notch dramatic actor, which has served him well because his comedy skills have deteriorated into a bag of frantic stereotypical voices.

* Minnie Driver is now playing a recovering drug addict in a clan of con-artist Travellers and is married to Eddie Izzard in FX's The Riches, to fantastic critical acclaim.

* Van Sant has been hit or miss since, with his shot-for-shot remake of Psycho being a significant miss, although Finding Forrester has to be considered a hit if for no other reason than it spawned the ridiculous, often-horrible yet occasionally-amusing absurd comedy site You're the Man Now, Dog.com. Let's not even mention the arduousness that was Gerry, the movie where Damon and Affleck Beta do nothing but walk around for two hours. I mean, yes, it does effectively capture the feeling of being lost in the desert and frustrated, but can you call a movie a success if it inflicts that much pain on the audience? I swear I fell asleep three times during the same shot in that movie. Anyway, Van Sant is back this year with a movie called Paranoid Park, and the only thing I've heard about this movie so far is that it's been nominated for the Independent Spirit Awards' Best Picture trophy.

Ten years can change a lot. I'm still not a big fan of the title pun, though.

I'm heading out to see P.S. I Love You shortly, which is a story of Gerard Butler making
