Adam Mast on Duncan Jones' MOON...This effectively shot sci fi piece features an outstanding
performance by Sam Rockwell as Sam Bell, a miner whose been stationed
on the moon for three long years. He is completely isolated and only
has the lunar base computer (voiced by Kevin Spacey) to keep him
company. With only a few weeks left on his long and lonely shift, a
strange encounter has Bell questioning his own sanity.
The plot of Moon
really takes shape in the second half of the film when a most
interesting element is introduced to this tale of a lonely man looking
forward to returning home to his family. Again, I'm not going to reveal
this particular plot point. It isn't so much a twist as it is an
intriguing hook that drives this character driven piece in a compelling
direction. Its also a plot point that will explain many of the strange
goings-on that may have puzzled some before the midway mark.
Moon
is both haunting and poetic and while the speed at which the story
unfolds may be maddening for some, there's so much here worth
recommending, including stunning art direction and an amazing score by
Clint Mansell. While Moon does touch on themes explored in 2001,
Solaris, and Silent Running, it doesn't really feel like those movies.
It exists in a world all its own. This isn't exactly a film for the
masses, but it does raise some interesting questions about humanity,
and it presents these questions in a unique, engaging way. If you have
the patience to stick with Moon, it's quite a rewarding experience.
Hoping for a knockout in the boxing ring, or at least the modeling world, Madonna’s reputed boy toy went shirtless in Dolce & Gabbana’s fall ad campaign.
Steven Klein photographed the hotness that is Jesus Luz at Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn. Women's Wear Daily says the ad was inspired by Italian film director Luchino Visconti’s pugilist flick Rocco e I Suoi Fratelli (Rocco and His Brothers).
Whatever that means.
Here's Jesus in the celebrity fashion ad. Also featured: David Gandy, Noah Mills, The City loser Adam Senn, Julienne Quevenne and Eva Herzigova:
And, with those words, Adam Lambert officially comes out of the closet in the latest issue of Rolling Stone.
While the issue of his sexual orientation was obvious - and, for the most part, irrelevant - to any American Idol fan, Lambert has been bugged about his perceived homosexuality ever since he made a major impression on season eight of the Fox competition.
Last week, he held the hand of Drake LaBry outside a Hollywood nightclub, seemingly putting an end to the speculation. But now it's on the record, official, in print. Why did he wait so long to utter the words above?
"I'm trying to be a singer, not a civil rights leader," he told the magazine.
Yes, Adam Lambert is gay. The country can move on now.
Here are a few other excerpts from the article:
On being gay: I'm proud of my sexuality. I embrace it. It's just another part of me.
On rooming with Kris Allen: They put me with the cute guy. Distracting! He’s the one guy I found attractive in the whole group on the show: nice, nonchalant, pretty and totally my type - except that he has a wife. I mean he’s open-minded and liberal, but he’s definitely 100% straight.
On not coming out during American Idol: I was worried that [coming out] would be so sensationalized that it would overshadow what I was there to do, which was sing.
On keeping his personal life private: I'm an entertainer, and who I am and what I do in my personal life is a separate thing. it shouldn't matter. Except it does. It's really confusing.
On self-perception: I finally checked into my self-worth for the first time in my life, and the fact that it coincided with Idol is so sweet. I mean, I still have moments where I think, 'Oh, my skin is terrible, and I'm a little fat - I should really go to the gym more.' But for the most part, when I look in the mirror now, I finally see somebody who can do something cool.
So do millions of fans, Adam. Way to remain true to yourself!
