2 Days in New York is also available on DVD this week.

Brave

Pixar's latest introduces Merida (voiced by Kelly Macdonald), a rebellious princess intent on changing her destiny. Though her traditional Irish family would like her to marry and fall in line with her royal duties, the strong-willed teenager would rather choose her own path. Merida's conflicted relationship with her mother is at the core of the story, and though the film is enjoyable, it's a little predictable and isn't quite as imaginative as some other Pixar films. The DVD includes director commentary and two short films: "La Luna" and "The Legend of Mordu."

Savages

Taylor Kitsch and Aaron Johnson star as Chon and Ben, two ambitious small-time drug dealers happily sharing the affections of O (Blake Lively). When a drug queenpin (Salma Hayek) notices the two are taking a slice of her sales, she offers them an ultimatum: sell their business to her or face the consequences. Ben and Chon opt to maintain their operation but live to regret it when O is kidnapped. Oliver Stone's high-stakes tale is visually breathtaking and a fun take on modern drugddealers, but squeamish viewers should beware of the graphic violence. The DVD comes with director commentary, deleted scenes, and a making-of featurette.

Salma Hayek Takes Savages to Rome and Talks Marriage

Salma Hayek made a red-carpet arrival in Rome yesterday for the premiere of Savages.
by

Salma Hayek made a red-carpet arrival in Rome yesterday for the premiere of Savages. The actress was accompanied by her costar John Travolta and the film's director, Oliver Stone. The trio premiered the film in the UK last week, along with Benicio Del Toro, after debuting their work in the States this Summer with Blake Lively, Taylor Kitsch, and the rest of the cast. Salma has had a busy few weeks making the film-festival rounds overseas. She started the month off in Venice, then made her way to the Deauville American Film Festival in France, where she was joined by her husband, Francois-Henri Pinault, and their daughter, Valentina . Salma opened up about her marriage in an interview for More's October issue, saying, "I really enjoy having somebody that I can be weak with. If I'm insecure or afraid, I can talk about it, and he'll give me strength and courage. With us, there's no power struggle. I don't mind doing things for him because he does so much for me, and he feels the same way."

Savages: 3 Reasons You Should See It — And 3 Reasons You Shouldn't

Director Oliver Stone's new project Savages hit theaters this week, and it's an intense thriller featuring three of Hollywood's young talents.

Director Oliver Stone's new project Savages hit theaters this week, and it's an intense thriller featuring three of Hollywood's young talents. Taylor Kitsch and Aaron Johnson star as Chon and Ben, friends since high school who have perfected the science of growing weed. Their business has attracted a lot of attention, some of it welcome — as from O (Blake Lively), the beach-haired beauty they share in bed — and some of it a little more sinister. Threatened by the big slice of pie the duo is taking out of her profit, Elena (Salma Hayek), the brutal boss of a major Mexican cartel, essentially offers to buy them out. When they rebuff her because of their high moral fiber (they're the "good" drug dealers), Elena retaliates by capturing their most prized possession, O. Before you write it off or buy your ticket for Savages, check out my reasons why this movie might be for you . . . or might not.

Why you should see it:

  1. Stone's take on modern drug dealers is hilarious — in a good way. If there's one thing I learned about ruthless drug lords from Savages, it's that they love Skype. It's a little disconcerting to see the same technology I use to talk with my mom put to use by a vicious marijuana queen-pin, but it's also pretty amusing. Elena's right-hand man, Lado (Benicio Del Toro), is also a man of modern convenience. He enjoys iced beverages from Starbucks and frequently eats from the refrigerators of the men he's been ordered to kill. I chuckled when one of the goons in charge of keeping O captive in her prison cell is seen mesmerized watching Ashley Hebert moan to her girlfriends on The Bachelorette.
  2. It's visually beautiful. Chon and Ben live in a stupidly expensive Laguna Beach abode overlooking the ocean, the house that their eco-friendly marijuana empire built. The lush beach town is ripe for sweeping coastal shots, but even the way Stone shoots the intimate scenes is pretty magnificent.
  3. Taylor Kitsch shows his butt. I knew this would be an R-rated movie and I expected some nudity, but I thought it would probably be from Lively. I was admittedly taken aback to see Kitsch bare his impressive assets in the opening moments of the film. I'm not complaining, but it's lucky the theater was dark, because my face was crimson.

Blake Lively Steals The Show in Yellow Gucci

Blake Lively once again was the center of attention in her one of a kind yellow Gucci dress at the NYC premiere of Savages last night. She was joined by costars including John Travolta and Taylor Kitch for the event. Blake's red carpet fashion for Savages has been amazing so far, with her strapless bombshell Zuhair Murad at the LA screening receiving the most attention. She is also making the talk show rounds and her interview with David Letterman airs tonight. Savages actually hits theaters on July 6, so perhaps Blake will be able to take time off to celebrate the Fourth of July with her Canadian love Ryan Reynolds when she's done promoting the film.

Blake Lively Savages Premiere Dress

If we're being totally honest, then we're probably just as excited to see Blake Lively's premiere looks for Oliver Stone's Savages as we are to see the movie itself — and with a glimpse at Blake's first promotional looks, it's not hard to see why. First the actress gave us a full-on bombshell moment in a curve-hugging Zuhair Murad gown and Veronica Lake-style glamazon waves for last night's LA screening. Now she's furthering her leading-lady status — first, with two ultrachic versions of the LWD for her appearance on the Late Show With David Letterman yesterday, and today with a hot red Michael Kors suit for a stop by Good Morning America. The latest is a summery, sunny-yellow Gucci maxi dress that Blake selected for the film's NYC premiere, which she complemented with a pair of gorgeous turquoise earrings. Keep in mind, this style tour is just beginning. Click on to see Blake's up-to-the-minute Savages premiere looks.

Blake Lively stepped out in slick, red-hot suiting for an appearance on Good Morning America today, and we fell head over heels for Blake's brightly colored getup. The Savages actress wore an Old Hollywood-inspired ensemble for the LA premiere of the movie, so we were excited to see her go for a menswear-inspired outfit today. She let the fiery red Michael Kors suit take center stage, but we love that her cropped trousers revealed a pair of strappy Christian Louboutins. Watch today's Fab Flash to get all the details.
