LOS ANGELES - The buzz about an Oscar upset in the Best Actress category is too great to ignore. Perhaps everyone just wants something new to talk about at this point, or maybe it’s true — “Frozen River” star Melissa Leo could walk away with 8-1/2 pounds of golden Academy love in her hand. One voting member of the Academy echoed sentiments I’ve heard several times this weekend. “I couldn’t decide between Kate (Winslet) or Meryl (Streep) so I went with Melissa.”
Kate Winslet said Friday that filming love scenes is "part of the job" as an actress and she does not allow it to distract her from portraying complex characters such as an illiterate former concentration camp guard.
Kate Winslet says she is prepared to leave this year's Oscar ceremony as she has five times in the past — without a golden statue.

For a long time, Kathy Bates kept her battle with ovarian cancer to herself. But now she’s gone public with her story in the hopes that she can help other women diagnosed with the disease and also find a cure.
I genuinely regret never having read Richard Yates’ novel “Revolutionary Road,” not only because its admirers tell me it’s a compelling look at mid-century ennui but also because any future attempts to read it will be tainted by the dreary film adaptation currently being inflicted upon audiences.
It takes a lot to upstage Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, but Michael Shannon’s turn as Kathy Bates’ psychologically defective son is a star-making performance. Shannon, with no filter between his brain and mouth, tells both April (Winslet) and Frank (DiCaprio) what they all-too-well realize but are afraid to hear — that their marriage is in shambles and the fetus inside April’s belly is doomed from the start. Shannon only has two scenes in the film and, with the help of director Sam Mendes, makes the most of each. That should translate into a nomination for best supporting actor.
That pesky iceberg kept Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet from growing into an old married couple in "Titanic."
Tom Cruise has been named to Details magazine’s power list, and in doing so, earned himself a platform to talk about his upcoming WWII-themed film “Valkyrie,” which opens on Christmas Day.
The stories are varied: A man ages backward, a nun suspects a priest of pedophilia, the rise and fall of a Latin American revolutionary, a married couple questions their life choices and a classic confrontation between a journalist and a politician. The sources are plays, popular novels and pure imagination. The directors are A-list: David Fincher, Ron Howard, Steven Soderbergh, Gus Van Sant, John Patrick Shanley and Sam Mendes. And their stars — Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Brad Pitt, Benicio Del Toro, Sean Penn and Leonardo DiCaprio — are some of Hollywood’s best. But will one of these six films take home the best picture Oscar? We’re betting on it.
Just in time for the holidays: Loads of Nazis. There must be something in the air, because World War II is everywhere in this winter’s period dramas. Plots include: A plan to assassinate Hitler; a Nazi collaborator who starts to feel guilty; a boy who falls for a woman who may have worked in a concentration camp; and three Jewish brothers who decide to fight back. It’s not recommended to watch any of these as a double feature. OK, there is one more period drama, in which Beyonce Knowles plays Etta James — and she won’t be fighting any Nazis.
Now that the presidential election is behind us, we can finally start obsessing about the really important race — what movies are in contention for best picture?

It was more than a little awkward for Kate Winslet to film sex scenes with Leonardo DiCaprio in front of husband Sam Mendes, who directed the stars in the upcoming drama "Revolutionary Road."
Edward NortonThere are certain actors who can be depended upon to appear in compelling movies — or, in some cases, to be the best thing about a so-so movie. Once upon a time, Nicolas Cage (“Raising Arizona”) was one of these actors. And then he wasn’t (“Con Air”). Since Edward Norton first appeared as the crafty, yet innocent-seeming Aaron Stampler in 1996’s “Primal Fear,” he’s been reliably impressive. He’s notorious for his need for on-set control — evidenced by his coup against director Tony Kaye on the set of “American History X.” But with a string of good performances in films such as “Fight Club,” “25th Hour,” “The Italian Job,” “Down in the Valley” and “The Painted Veil,” it’s hard to be too critical of his fight to make himself heard on set. Will “The Incredible Hulk,” with its laugh-inducing tr
Intrigued by Kate Winslet's Oscar victory, I finally went out this weekend to see "The Reader". The movie documents the brief romantic liason between a teenaged boy and an older woman in post-war Germany.
