One thing I forgot to mention about that issue of W magazine that Rooney Mara / Dragon Tatoo covers (discussed yesterday) is that it also contains an article called "25 Best Performances of the Year". Some though not all of the 25 are online now including: Julianne Moore, Michael Douglas, Jeff Bridges, Nicole Kidman, Mila Kunis, Justin Timberlake... In other words "25 Best Performances By People Whose Names Move Magazines Off The Shelves" but that title just seems so... honest.
We can't have that during awards season!
How great is the photo of Helena Bonham-Carter? I'm dying!
AFTER THE JUMP my 4 other favorite photos from an incredible W shoot by Inez Van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. It's enough to make me want to buy a hard copy and I never do that anymore.
The photo of Ruffalo totally makes me want to see him in a production of Hair, the musical. The last one I saw was so damn good.
Odd Confession: Normally I don't like black and white photos of Nicole Kidman (I think it's because the red of the hair and the blue of the eyes really gets to me. But I love this one.
