Jane + Mr. Rochester. TLA?

First clip from the new Jane Eyre starring rising star Mia Wasikowska and the already-obsessed-over-by-cool-people Michael Fassbender.

I think rinnyp said it best on twitter when she said "fan your privates".

My memory has gone entirely blank on the Jane Eyre plot. Here's to cultural literacy! My only memory of the book at this point is that my mom loves it. It's quite an unexpected follow up to Sin Nombre as Cary Fukunaga's sophomore feature, don't you think?

And the Link Goes To...

New York Magazine a fine profile on Darren Aronofsky
The Hollywood Reporter Mark Zuckerberg on The Social Network's Oscar nods
Movie|Line The Social Network backlash is officially in full swing. Even James Franco is taking shots at it! Although if you want to bitch about "conventional" films, why choose that one when The King's Speech has more nominations? This is what sometimes happens to films when they're out front for too long. People get uppity about their "status".
Reddit Coen Bros ensemble infographic... fun! It's kinda like my "familiar faces" series only more visually enticing.
Alt Film Guide discusses the preferential balloting system and what it means for Oscar.
Antagony & Ecstacy offers up "The Antagonists", Tim's own awards.

Finally, have you seen this clip from Newsweek about pregnancy at the Oscars? I love The Bening's humor and Natalie's wonder about her own experience as well as Nicole Kidman's minor interjections "golly!" haha. Cuteness.
