"Lots of tongues wagging this week about how Viggo Mortensen's naked knife fight in Eastern Promises heralds a new era of male full-frontal nudity on screen. (Exhibits B through D: Emile Hirsch's nude scene in Into the Wild; Ang Lee's NC-17-rated Lust, Caution, and over on HBO, that casually explicit handjob on Tell Me You Love Me.)" (Popwatch)

"Reading about the wait, I was thinking about what it’s like to cover a fashion show in a week of covering endless fashion shows, and running a hectic schedule, and waiting ... because they’re almost all late in getting started. A week of shows having piled up behind you, two hours is a long time to wait for anything or anybody. Think flight delay at the airport. Furthermore, 26th Street and Lexington Avenue is very possibly not near where you are staying; and you won’t be out til midnight which means you won’t be in bed before ... whatever. These things must have crossed Suzy Menkes’ mind waiting for Marc Jacobs to show his stuff. The whole thing kinda made me laugh. The wait, in a folding chair at that hour in that part of town. And then for that show. Have you seen the pictures? It’s kinda funny, made me laugh." (NewYorkSocialDiary)
