The Ides Of March's Evan Rachel Wood talks sex scandals

The Ides Of MarchactressEvan Rachel Wood believes that skeletons in politicians closets shouldn't be rattled by the media and that sex scandals are "natural". "One of the best lines in the movie is, 'You can start a war, you can bankrupt a country but you can't sit with the interns.' That's the wake-up call. We make such a big deal about these sex scandals, which are actually the most natural things in the world and everyone has skeletons in their closet and it actually shouldn't matter at all. I don't want to know. People can do whatever they want with themselves and that's fine. It has nothing to do with the way you conduct yourself at your job," Wood said.She also revealed that the cast of the political thriller had a blast shooting the film and that was all thanks to director George Clooney."They're all different but I really like working with directors who are actors because you speak the same language. That's one of the reasons George was so amazing - he knew exactly what to say to get what he wanted. And he made sure everyone was having a great time. I think he knows that if your cast and crew are happy then you're going to get good work. That's actually really rare. But that's why I loved working with him," Wood said.And when it came to prep she didn't go all method and hang out with political campaign staff, relying on information hand picked by Clooney instead."George gave us a lot of material and documentaries to watch that was more behind the scenes on the campaign trails with the press and the interns so that was my way into that world," she said.

Jim Carrey Asks a Waiter to Analyze Whether He's Having a Midlife Crisis

Back in August, Jim Carrey released his creepy-funny-creepy love letter video to actress Emma Stone. A couple weeks later, a clip of the actor riding around on a bike with his ex-girlfriend was posted to his site, JimCarreyTruLife.com. People then started asking the inevitable question: Is Jim Carrey having a midlife crisis? Well, the actor decided to address these rumors head on in a new video entitled, "Jim Carrey: Out to Lunch."

The lack of Women

A Lyric Theater Belfast presentation of the play in a single act by Owen McCafferty. Directed by Rachel O'Riordan.Iggy - Ciaran McIntyreGerry - Peter GowenDotty - Alice O'ConnellJohn - Francis MezzaSuperb Northern Irish scribe Owen McCafferty is not fully on the top of his game within this short, sad play about two aged Belfast workers passing time towards dying inside a London hostel. Play sits uneasily between your individual and also the universal, and Rachel O'Riordan's production feels miscalibrated for that relatively intimate Tricycle space: Otherwise excellent stars Ciaran McIntyre and Peter Gowen play the majority of their dialogue in near-shouts. In past work ("Moments in the Large Picture," "Mojo Mickybo," "Closing Time") McCafferty has offered, with enormous sensitivity and insight, Belfast-set tales that move past the global cliches of Northern Ireland like a blighted combat zone. Which isn't to express his plays provide lightness: drink, idleness, and also the personal and social disorder triggered by repressed conflict are predominant styles. Exactly the same problems figure centrally within the lives of two males who left Belfast decades ago to operate about the streets and also have never been back. Both of them are recuperating alcoholics, and far of the banter involves childlike competition about whose existence is much more cleaned-up (Gerry's liver "was as large like a dinner plate", he brags, once the physician told him his options were dry up or die). Eventually, via flashback, key episodes from all of their past are performed out, that really help provide context for his or her feeling of hopelessness. Contacted with a lovely youthful lady (Alice O'Connell) inside a dancehall, Gerry is really paralyzed by shyness he blows an opportunity at romance and happiness ("Belfast males don't dance," he tell her). Iggy, we uncover, is gay but was cruelly declined by John (Francis Mezza), the youthful friend he arrives to, and not informs the reality again. As soon as where Iggy propositions John is really a crux reason for the drama, but, such as the production overall, feels rushed and also over-abrupt, and lands candidly. The lonely fate of numerous Irish and Northern Irish workers within the United kingdom is indeed a-existence phenomenon, but has additionally been dramatized formerly in plays as well as on film. The reduced horizontal pile of spades in the forestage of Stuart Marshall's set, cheap a few of the projects the males say they done happened before these were born claim that McCafferty is providing these males as archetypes. But it is hard then to be aware what to create from the particularities of the tales and where McCafferty sees the total amount falling between individual agency and bigger social and historic forces. There's, nevertheless and finally, enormous energy in Gerry's final, tragically drunken monologue, shipped to everybody with no one on the noisy street (well-evoked by Ivan Birthistle and Vincent Doherty's seem design and James Whiteside's angular lighting). An entire existence is recommended within the particulars he rambles away, yet it's only because we have overheard the prior conversation it makes sense at all. Production doubtless works in inviting London auds to think about the humanity from the destitute they pass in the pub every single day.Models and costumes, Stuart Marshall lighting, James Whiteside seem, Ivan Birthistle and Vincent Doherty mind of production, Conor McGivern. Opened up, examined September 14, 2011. Running time: one hour 10 MIN. Contact the range newsroom at news@variety.com
