Fun Shoots

Helena Bonham Carter and lover Tim Burton do their best

impressions of lunatics in a shoot for UK Vogue, 2008

Although they are utterly ridiculous, I can't help but love

their individuality. They do what they want, when they want.

they're complete nutters!

Skip It

Film: CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY

Director: Tim Burton

Actors: Johnny Depp, Freddie Highmore, David Kelly, Helena Bohnam Carter, Noah Taylor, Missi Pile, James Fox, Deep Roy, Julia Winter, AnnaSophia Robb

Year: 2005

Taking the classic 1977 original family film and turning it into a uber-weird, crazy mess was not such a good idea. I don't think it was really one specific thing that turned me off, but when the credits began to run, I felt strange and uncomfortable. The kookiness of Depp wasn't enough to keep this flick afloat. Always default to the Gene Wilder version. It's terrific.

Flick of the Day

Film: FIGHT CLUB

Director: David Finch

Actors: Edward Norton, Brad Pitt, Helena Bonham Carter, Meatloaf, Jared Leto, Zach Grenier, Richmond Arquette

Year: 1999

Synopsis: A man with a hum-drum life meets an exciting rebel and everything changes.

Edward Norton (who is basically always good) stars as a bored insomniac. His life changes drastically when he meets soap salesman, Tyler Durgen, and chaos ensues. Brad Pitt is great, but Helena Bonham Carter is fantastic as a chain-smoking, nut-job.

Performance of the Day

Actor: HELENA BONHAM CARTER

Film: "Alice in Wonderland"

Character: The Red Queen

Year: 2010

This British-born actor played the Red Queen to perfection. Known for her quirky sense of style and character choices, Carter stands out in an all-star cast.

Best Dressed - 2011 SAG Awards

Creams, pinks, and lace seemed to be the themes of the night. We saw a bit of bright, vibrant color and a lot of form-fitting . Here are the looks we loved... and hated at the 2011 Screen Actors Guild Awards.

BEST OVERALL LOOK:

Natalie Portman (looks lovely sporting a beautiful white gown, perfect hair, and baby bump), Lea Michele (takes the prize for #1 Best Look of the Night in a fabulous sparkling gown and fun, messy 'do), Angie Harmon (although it's been done before, she looks gorgeous... especially her elegant ponytail)

BEST DRESS:

Winona Ryder (she knows how to make a comeback in this fierce, cream-colored gown), Susan Sarandon (the purple in her dress goes great with her red hair), Sofia Vergara (knows exactly how to dress her body and the color is stunning)

Julianna Margulies (looks lovely in red), Annette Bening (a Greek-goddess gown that looks great on her)

BEST HAIR:

Mila Kunis (best down 'do)

Amy Adams (best up 'do)

WORST OVERALL LOOK:

Nicole Kidman (I'm not sure what she was going for, but Kidman has really been dropping the ball in terms of red carpet looks), Helena Bonham Carter (and the Queen of Horrid takes her place on the worst list), Jennifer Lawrence (this might have worked if the left shoulder straps were removed, the black belt bow was gone, and the color was toned down a bit)

Dianna Agron (the hair is terrible and the dress doesn't work on her at all), Christina Hendricks (it's a robe made of curtains), January Jones (the #1 worst look of the night. I don't know what you were sipping when you picked this out, Jones)

WORST DRESS:

Hailee Steinfeld (you're new at this, so we will give you a pass, but please don't ever come looking like a box of Crayolas again), Mila Kunis (I understand what she was trying to do, but I think she got the bottom of the gown caught in a blender on her way out the door)

Jayma Mays (hideous cut and bad color for her skin tone), Jane Lynch (why? Did you lose a bet?), Jenna Fischer (is that made out of sweatpants material?)

WORST HAIR:

Eva Longoria (she's such a tiny person. She should avoid big 'dos), Annette Bening (I would love for her to come to one awards show this season with her hair brushed), Winona Ryder (she did so well on the dress. I figured crazy Winona would rear her ugly head)

HONORABLE MENTION:

Mariska Hargitay (she's looking great. Would have made best overall look, but the cut of the dress is a little boring), Hilary Swank (the dress is great and the hair is fierce... I'm just not sure if they go together), Claire Danes (she looks just like January Jones in this pic. I'm not in love with the belt, but the dress is awesome)

Betty White (Best look over 80. Betty certainly knows that blue is her color. I love the jacket too. She's is one rockin' 89-year-old)
