Charlie Chaplin Is the Father Claire Bloom Never Had
Bloom brought her 65 years of experience at New York’s Film Forum in a special event devoted entirely to her life and work on Tuesday night. She talked openly about acting jobs she took on mostly for money, like her 18-month stint as villainous Orlena Grimaldi on As The World Turns (As she said last night about the latter role, she doesn’t regret taking it on, but she has no plans to return to that kind of acting again.)
Through it all, Mrs. Bloom continues to work. Last seen as Queen Mary in this year’s Best Picture Oscar winner The King’s Speech, she ended the night with a tantalizing hint as to a possible future film project: something with Jerry Lewis?
“Well, why not?” she said in a carefree tone of voice. “It would be terrific. I don...

What did you expect to get out of The Hunks experience?
I don’t know really. I had such a good time filming it so anything else that comes from it is a bonus.
What is your definition of a hunk?

I'm breaking the Comic Con reporting mold with this one, ladies and gentlemen. Every other site (and yes, ours too) likes to concentrate on the sexy costumers and booth babes that decorate the halls of the convention center. But you know what? There's actually a lot of eye candy for the ladies. Some of them are professional (Lionsgate always seems to bring the booth beefcakes) but a lot of them are just hardcore costumers who are happy to flex their muscles for a photo.
This year was no exception. There were quite a few Indiana Joneses and Captain Mals, a solid Superman, more Wolverines than you could shake a stick at (my favorite!) and even an Edward Cullen. And that's just the floor! The celebrities on display weren't exactly shabby either. I mean, any week where you can see Nathan Fillion, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Josh Brolin, Michael Fassbender, Johnny Depp,...
