If you don't like sex scenes in movies, you've never had great sex.

Bobby gives good quip...
Elizabeth Taylor is CLEOPATRA right now on a Fox Retro movie channel. It's a guilty pleasure viewing for me. I love Taylor in this role. She's so Queen of the Nile...by way of Sherman Oaks. pic.twitter.com/2L9qR06RPp

remember 1994?
Feud the series, but make it Linda Fiorentino and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Oscar eligibility committee. https://t.co/kZfQaOeyB0

I keep seeing comments about this "outfit" but it's not an outfit at all, this is Tilda in the nude. pic.twitter.com/BDKZEp5ImW

I also love this about ScarJo
One of my favorite things about Scarlett Johansson as an actor is that she is a remarkably generous ensemble player. Often she goes grounded and low key and gives her costars space to go big

watching Married to the Mob…didn’t know Modine was this hot?
— Joey Sims (@joeycsims) July 14, 2021
a reasonable assumption...
wait who ordered the 90s nostalgia all of a sudden?When someone says “the good ol’ days,” I naturally infer that to mean the time in the 90’s when Janeane Garofalo was everywhere.

This is not remotely fair...Eyes Wide Shut being released as a big summer movie and then actually opening at #1, the last gasp of the horny '90s

an unfortunate truth. nothing is certain or sacred anymoreCongratulations to Manny Jacinto for being the only person on the planet to experience a pandemic glow-up, despite already being in the 99th percentile of human hotness.🥵 https://t.co/Vp4adBxjsF

Between the Oscars and Cannes, you just don't know when the big prize will be read these days...

And, finally, when Leading and Kerning choices really matter... yikes.

How many men was Streisand supposed to have raped?
Can do without the commentary between every tweet.
Editor - Then go to Twitter. Is this your first time?
That's serious, magazines like Mandate, Playgirl and others, like the heteronormative ones, don't have only artistic nudity, they also show articles on politics, art, society, and great interviews. Really.
@Editor
I would only read a post like this for the commentary.
Many of us come here especially for Nathaniel's commentary. 🤗🥰
What is this guy on the cover of the magazine doing? I got curious. Is it from a movie? Who is this guy?
Scar-Jo 3:16!!!!! And whoa... who did Streisand rape?
Is it terrible of me to use Manny's pic for my future prayers?
Is Streisand one of the victims though?
ScarJo is so underrated!
I kinda agree with Editor, but the bully brigade attacked them for their innocuous constructive opinion. I mean sure, throw some pearls from Claudio in and it'd work, but tweets are meant to be quick and this is at its best as a collection for those of us who don't care enough to join twitter and mine for the good stuff.
I'd like to read Barbra's interview - it's 1981 and she's the highest-paid actress in Hollywood at the time because was paid $4 million and 15% of box-office returns for All Night Long (1981). Her interviews até always great by the way.

Damn, left or right folks have one thing in common: bullying harmless differing opinions. For shame.
For what it's worth I love Nathaniel's commentary. Like good lord people, what are you even debating right now on such an innocuous post?
As for Manny Jacinto... wow. Holy wow.
1980s Matthew Modine stirred something in my gay little elementary school heart. Check out the IMDB page for Married to the Mob, open up the pictures and see photos 18-25 in the gallery. Not sure if I'm more jealous of Ms Pfeiffer getting a foot rub from MM, or of MM having the honor of touching La Pfeiffer!
Pedro -- Please stop mentioning me to undermine other writers' work. I hate it, it makes me feel uncomfortable, and if you do really like what I write, you won't disrespect the other contributors to this site in such a manner.
Cláudio, Pedro is a little tacky but don’t diminish your growing stardom out of some disingenuous loyalty. If Nathaniel didn’t ditch you when you eclipsed practically everyone at TFE, he will surely be happy for your well earned praise and ascension.
I thought it was a fun bit of lighthearted poking fun at the future, but don’t make us all add this to all our posts until you embrace your talent and trajectory:
Kale, Ebert, Alves
