It's from Grasses of a Thousand Colours, the Wallace Shawn play that is opening in London this month. Anyone want to buy me a plane ticket so I can go see it? :P

There are more pics of the cast here.

Or, as the Fug girls would say: Well Played, Miranda Richardson.

I guess there's a law somewhere that states that if a movie premiere falls on your 51st birthday, you must show up to said premiere looking smokin' hot, with just-shagged hair, and wearing a dress in a colour that not many people could pull off, but you look AWESOME in?



I think there is. And I think Miranda PWNED it.

Two more pics from The Young Victoria! One of them which missfoxie will love. You ask, m'dear, I deliver. ;)

This year (on 3rd March), Miranda Richardson will turn 50 years of age. To celebrate this, and to show her how many admirers appreciate her work and talent, the Miranda forum group has organised to send her a 50th Birthday present. This will take the form of a donation in her name to an organisation she has long supported - the WSPA. Anyone can add their own donation to the collection, however large or small, and leave a personal birthday message for Miranda. A website has been set up via an independent charity collection site.

Click here to donate!

As an example of her support of this organisation, in December, Miranda travelled to Sri Lanka on behalf of the WSPA to learn more about stray dog population control projects in Colombo. You can watch a video about her trip here.

In May she accompanied them to the International Whaling Commission meetings in Alaska to promote the anti-whaling message. Click here for more information from WSPA, and here for Miranda's endorsement of a current campaign.

This has been more or less ganked wholesale from the front page of the Miranda Richardson Apprecitaion Page, because Clive is much better at writing this sort of concise message than I am. More personally, I've been organising this with him since the end of last year. I set up the donation website, and with his Webmastery Powers of Awesome, he has been in contact with a lovely lady at the WSPCA, who is thrilled with the idea and has done everything she can to help us. According to her, the WSPCA's 'celebrity' co-ordinator has been in touch with Miranda's agent, and the collection has been explained to Miranda who is apparently very touched by it.

So please help us make the pile larger, and wish Miranda a very happy birthday :D

 

The year is 2030. Rita Skeeter, on fashion tips from one Cruella DeVille, has changed her hair colour. and developed a thing for the American flag, apprently



( AND TAKEN OVER THE WORLD )


Okay, so not really. But seriously, Nana Mae Frost (no, really) looks like Rita on the best sort of crack.

Those caps were taken from the trailer for Southland Tales, a new sci-fi film directed by the dude behind Donnie Darko.

Oh, how I love good scifi.

This one went to Cannes last year and got laughed out, so they've recut it and apparently decided to go for the Big Splodey Blockbuster form of advertising. Still, it looks great, and maybe it will get a wide release with the cast of muscle bound men and cute pop stars. Which is fine by me, because I'll be there for the Miranda. If I can enjoy Vin Diesel's wooden badassness in Riddick for the awesome of Judi Dench, I'm sure I can make myself like The Rock for two hours as well.

This stuff pilfered from various lovely people over at the MRAP forums. Fred Claus looks like it's going to be a fairly stupid film, to be honest, if the trailer is anything to go by, but OH, it will be worth it to see Miranda in those costumes.

OMG. THE CUTE.

Here, have some screencaps from the trailer:

( Now we know why Santa only leaves the North Pole once a year. Because he has a severely hot wife. )

I think I may die from the hot. And the red hair. Oh yes.

Also, I was watching episodes of 'Call My Bluff' and 'V Graham Norton' recently. In the one, Miranda revealed that she loves cormorants, in the other, that she loves nature and birds and is into falconry. How completely awesome is that?

When Graham didn't get the hobby, she said: "I don't have to explain to you the joy of having a wild beast thrashing around on your fist, do I?"

WIN, MANDA. sjdghjsghjsfhss. WINx1000000

Also, she was wearing GREEN STILLETOS. Fuck me sideways. *dies*

Have a picspam of Miranda sreencaps from my two latest acquisitions, Enchanted April and Saint Ex, both of which are strange but enjoyable little films. Manda is particularly hot in the latter.

Apologies for graininess and any weird sizing photobucket has done.
