I just realized something disturbing: Tilda Swinton has the same haircut as the second boy who ever kissed me. She has a skater boy’s haircut circa 1991. Anyway, these are photos of Tilda at last night’s AFI Fest premiere of We Need To Talk About Kevin. The dress is probably Haider Ackermann, just because Tilda always wears Haider. I find the outfit to be kind of meh… but for some reason, Tilda does manage to look angelic. If Hollywood ever needs her to play an angel (again), they should definitely put her in all-white and just let her alien self glow through.
I’ve been looking forward to seeing We Need To Talk About Kevin, but I doubt it will come to my little conservative megaplex. The film isn’t getting released until the beginning of December, and even then, it’s a limited, NYC and LA release. This one is probably a rental for me, which sucks because I think Tilda is probably going to get nominated for Best Actress this year.
This is just incidental by the way, but has anyone else noticed that the Oscar campaigns seem really dull and quiet this year? By November, usually there are several big contenders for the lead actor and actress Oscars, but I was just thinking the other day that I barely have an idea of who will be getting nominated for what. I’m guessing Tilda… and who else for Best Actress? Er… As for Best Actor, who do we have so far? Michael Fassbender for Shame, Brad Pitt (maybe) for Moneyball and…? I’m telling you, this is a weird year. By this time last year, I already knew that Colin Firth was a major Oscar contender for The King’s Speech.
