Gone Trailer: Amanda Seyfried Is Hot on the Trail of Her Sister's Abductor

Shannon Vestal — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 11:15:50 PST

Amanda Seyfried must have enjoyed being on the run for In Time, because she's still hustling in the trailer for Gone. She plays Jill, a teen who thinks her sister Molly has been kidnapped after she disappears from their home one night. The police aren't as suspicious, but Jill has a conspiracy theory. Jill had been kidnapped by a serial killer two years prior and escaped, and she thinks the captor came back for her, but nabbed Molly instead. The cops won't believe Jill, and she becomes a target when she goes rogue and tries to track down the killer herself before he can murder Molly.

Gone seems like an interesting mystery, but it doesn't look like it's got any tricks up its sleeve (I'm even willing to bet that the killer is one of the nay-saying detectives). The whole thing plays out like an overdramatic crime thriller - Seyfried gets to utter the cheese-tastic line of "I'll sleep when he's dead" - but at least the cast has a few familiar faces, like Jennifer Carpenter, Wes Bentley, and Sebastian Stan. It's worth it to see them together, so watch the whole trailer after the jump.

Amanda Seyfried Is Going, Going, Gone

Summit Entertainment's love affair with Amanda Seyfried continues. The Letters to Juliet and Dear John actress is embarking on yet another project with the studio, titled Gone. Seyfried will play Jill, a woman whose sister goes missing. When Jill becomes convinced that the man behind the disappearance is the same serial killer who kidnapped her two years prior, she sets out to confront her abductor.

Smokin' Aces Helps Ben Quit Smokin'

PopSugar — Mon, 05 Feb 2007 15:28:06 PST

Smokin' Aces may not be heating things up at the box office, but it has still been a smart move on Ben Affleck's part - it actually helped him quit smoking. That will definitely give him more energy to put into Jen, Violet, and the film he's written and directed, Gone, Baby, Gone. Ben recently stopped for a Q&A about family life, his GG Nom, and the upside of nepotism. Here's highlights:

You may not have won, but congrats on the Golden Globe nomination.
I was very happy. My wife was up early with our child and [woke me up] to tell me I'd been nominated – and to get me to change the baby.
You play a chain-smoking bail bondsman in Smokin' Aces. You're a smoker, right?
The whole week that I shot, I smoked, like, five packs a day. By the time the movie was over, I was so sick of smoking, I just didn't want to do it anymore, and I quit. I have this celluloid record of the last time I smoked.
How was directing your brother Casey, 31, in Gone, Baby, Gone?
A pleasure. It was like directing anybody else, except I could fantasize that if it came down to it I could throttle him.

Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall 2012

Chi Diem Chau — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 19:22:09 PST

The Marc by Marc Jacobs collection was all about the schoolgirl gone grunge. Loose trapeze-like dresses and combat boots melded with pleated skirts and pretty bouclé coats resulting in a mashup of feminine cool tinged with military touches. The main focus were full-skirted dresses made in floral prints, metallic finishes, plaid, velvet, and sheer mesh. Outerwear featured a standout fur collared anorak and plenty of ladylike coats. We were especially smitten with the polished textural coats, nipped in at the waist with leather belts. For accessories, Jacobs highlighted a range of structured satchels, military caps, and punkish lace-up boots. Read more highlights below, then see the complete collection in the slideshow.

Trends: Full skirts, bouclé, plaid.
Colors: Red, blue, black, gray, brown, gold.
Key Piece: The fur-collared anorak coat and full-skirted dresses were key standouts.
Accessories: Lace-up boots military boots, structured satchels, military caps.
Who Would Wear It: We can easily see Lauren Conrad or Elle Fanning wearing the cute dresses and coats.

We're Sweet on Vintage Valentine's Day Ads

Tara Sharp — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 08:23:58 PST

Happy Valentine's Day! Take a trip back in time with these funny, cute, romantic, and sometimes sexist vintage V-Day ads. According to these ads, it seems the best way to impress a woman (and get some lovin') on Feb. 14 is with a box of chocolates, and for men it's cake. Alluding to sexual favors in exchange for Valentine's Day gifts may seem retro, but the concept hasn't gone away in advertising, as we saw in Teleflora's "give and receive" Super Bowl ad over the weekend. See some of the good, bad, and most bizarre vintage V-Day ads!

In Her Shoes: April Beyer, Matchmaker and Relationship Coach

Anna Monette Roberts — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 03:05:36 PST

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, April Beyer, expert relationship coach and matchmaker, gives SavvySugar an insider's look into her unique career. Helping men and women find lasting relationships for almost 14 years, she is the founder and president of Beyer & Company, a matchmaking and relationship consulting firm. She's frequently interviewed and has been seen on Dr. Phil, 20/20, and Good Morning America. Beyond her weekly clients, April writes on her blog, conducts seminars, and is working on a book to help women prepare for love and romance. April tells us what it's like to assist other people on their journey to finding love and happiness.

SavvySugar: Can you tell me about your career path and how your business has grown throughout the years?

April Beyer: I started out in the high-end matchmaking industry nearly 14 years ago. I had worked with a matchmaking company and was there for about six or seven years. I was responsible for many marriages there. In 2003, I decided to venture out on my own and start a relationship coaching and consulting business. Now, I still have my matchmaking company. I work with a handful of highly successful marriage-minded men. I am also a coach and a writer.

Now my passion is to help women better understand themselves first so then they can naturally attract the man of their dreams. I am a little bit more of a holistic dating and relationship coach, but I think of myself more as is a communication and authenticity coach. For me, it's not about teaching people dating skills, it is teaching them relationship skills.
