2009 Tribeca Film Festival Spotlight: Stay Cool

BuzzSugar — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 15:30:54 PDT

I've been perusing the long list of interesting-looking movies scheduled for this year's Tribeca Film Festival, which starts this week. Some of them, like Stay Cool, are already earning some buzz, and I'm anxious to find out what festivalgoers think once they've screened.

The intriguing cast of Stay Cool includes Chevy Chase, Winona Ryder, Hilary Duff, Sean Astin, and Jon Cryer as well as the man of my dreams, Sawyer (or, Josh Holloway of Lost).

The comedy, written and directed by the Polish brothers, "centers on a successful author (Mark Polish) who is forced to confront an unrequited high school crush (Winona Ryder) when he returns home to deliver a commencement address to graduating seniors. Shasta O'Neil (Hilary Duff), a sexy high school senior flirts with the visiting author and invites him to the prom."

Josh Holloway Joins the Cast of Stay Cool

Now, I was interested in the initial movie news concerning Stay Cool, when the cast included Chevy Chase, Winona Ryder, Hilary Duff, Sean Astin and Jon Cryer. But now that they're adding my beloved Sawyer (Josh Holloway, of Lost), my interest has naturally morphed into complete fascination.

The movie, described as a "knowing-your-age comedy" follows "a successful author (Mark Polish) who is forced to confront an unrequited high school crush, Scarlet Smith (Ryder), when he returns home to deliver a commencement address to graduating seniors."

Duff plays Shasta O'Neill, "a sexy high school senior who flirts with the visiting author and invites him to the prom." Holloway's character is "the former high school jock and ex-boyfriend to Ryder's Scarlet."

This collection of people is hilariously bizarre in my eyes, and I can't wait to see what comes out of this project. Will you be first in line at the theaters along with me?

Hilary Duff Joins Cast of Stay Cool

Everyone's favorite yearbook line. . .
Stay Cool, a comedy by twin brothers Michael and Mark Polish (The Astronaut Farmer, Northfork) just added Hilary Duff (who stays cool this summer in real life by going shopping) to the cast, which already included Chevy Chase, Jon Cryer, Winona Ryder and Sean Astin.

How cool is this character name?
Duff's character is named Shasta O'Neill in the movie, which has been deemed a "knowing-your-age comedy." It follows "a successful author (Polish) who is forced to confront an unrequited high school crush (Ryder) when he returns home to deliver a commencement address to graduating seniors." Shasta (seriously, that name!) is "a sexy high school senior who flirts with the visiting author and invites him to the prom."

When do you think Hilary Duff will stop getting the "sexy ____" roles?
She was recently seen in War, Inc. opposite John Cusack as the "sexy international pop starlet" and now she's going back to high school as a sexy student. I guess use it if you got it. . . ?

Get Ashley Greene's Pretty People's Choice Makeup Look

Jaime Richards — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 11:08:40 PST

When it comes to pretty, polished makeup looks, Ashley Greene should win an award for perfect shade pairings. At the People's Choice Awards, for instance, the Twilight star looked absolutely radiant coupling bronze eye makeup and subtly stained red lips. Vanessa Scali, who created the look, shares tips on how you can get the style at home, using products from Mark (for which Ashley is an ambassador):

Eyes: "Ashley wanted a hint of smolder in the eyes but didn't want anything dark or overdone," explained Scali. To accomplish that feel, Scali started by applying the brand's I-Mark Metallics Custom Pick shadow in Truffle on Ashley's lid and under the bottom lashes, blending for a sheer effect at the crease, and extending it outward to elongate. She then applied brown and black liners for a "feline resemblance."

Cheeks and lips: Then, to bring it all together, Scali used Just Pinched blush in Peachy on the apples of Ashley's cheeks. And for that lightly stained finish, Scali used a lipstick. "I applied Lipclick Full Color Lipstick in Cha Cha to the center of Ashley's lips, gently pressing the color in and blending outward toward the edge, giving the lips a pop of color but keeping the line soft and easy," she said.

Hannah Weil — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 20:21:54 PDT

An all-star model cast including Karen Elson, Jess Stam, Arizona Muse, Karlie Kloss, and Lindsey Wixson hit the runway for Anna Sui's '40s-inspired Spring 2012 collection. With ladylike silhouettes, sweet, full-bodied prints, an electric palette - and turbans to top every look - Sui's Spring looks bright, polished, and marked with feminine charm in every detail. Nods to the womanly, the glamorous - and the very Parisian - were made throughout, in everything from the bold red lips to the lace veils, and the music transporting the crowd - including front-rower Sofia Coppola - to a bouncy dance scene in retro Paris. Indeed, the models themselves seemed to bounce along the runway in a peppy celebration of womanly clothes and colorful accents. Lindsey Wixson smiled flirtatiously, Karlie Kloss perfected her sultry half-smile, and the parade of beauties all done up in a mix of prints, socks, and sequins played perfectly to Sui's witty recreation of vintage style.

Trends: Ladylike, sheer, lace, florals, prints, sequins, turbans.
Colors: Purple, black, white, red, yellow florals.
Key Piece: Karlie in the electric purple floral print frock and matching turban.
Accessories: Cat-eye sunglasses, floppy hats, turbans, crisscross sandals, embellished tights, socks, and Sui's luggage for Tumi.
Who Would Wear It: Witty, whimsical types who favor femme silhouettes and a taste for the retro; Kirsten Dunst.
