Movie Preview: Departures

BuzzSugar — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 05:45:28 -0700

When Departures (Okuribito in Japanese) won the Oscar for Best Foreign-Language Film, it took a lot of people by surprise - including the film's director Yojiro Takita. Takita (who used to direct porn comedies?) apparently didn't even prepare an acceptance speech.

After all that awards excitement, I'm excited to check out the trailer. The movie follows a cellist named Daigo Kobayashi who is forced to quit his orchestra in Tokyo and return to his rural hometown. To support himself and his wife, Daigo takes a job as a mortician. Variety describes the movie as "tonally eccentric" and "lushly scored." I found the trailer to be quite touching.

A Japanese ex-porn director wins an Oscar for a movie about a mortician? I'm in. Departures will hit theaters May 22. To check out the trailer for yourself, read more.

The recent onslaught of back-to-back award shows challenged celebrities to flaunt their red carpet style, and while some failed, others prevailed. Take, for instance, Evan Rachel Wood. This actress is now a certified red carpet star. The Wrestler actress, and yes, Marilyn Manson's ex, has constantly upped her fashion game and we've taken notice. From decadent tiered frocks to sumptuous silk gowns, Wood amazed us with her exquisite taste and statuesque posing. Check out our slideshow to see all of her amazing red carpet looks!

Oscars Fab Roundup!

FabSugar — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 12:00:22 -0800

What did you think of this year's Oscars? Here's my take. I enjoyed the show more, with the fresh talent, cool sets, and quick editing, but the red carpet wasn't the most exciting. Aside from some of my red-carpet favorites not even walking the red carpet, there were simply too many ivory and beige gowns. There, I said it. That doesn't mean these dresses weren't beautiful, it was simply safe, and safe is boring to me. Nonetheless, we still made a party out of it. Be sure to play our Oscars faceoff game and get Angelina's emerald jewels for less. Here's a roundup of everything else Fab and Oscars.

Which Marisa Tomei Oscars Look Is More Fab?

FabSugar — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 13:30:22 -0800

You all know Marisa stunned me in her icy gray Versace on the Oscars red carpet. Way to work it. But I have to say her Juan Carlos Obando colorblock dress at the Vanity Fair afterparty was also stunning, in a sizzling way. The black, turquoise, and camel color combo is awesome, and the slinky cut is super hot. I can't decide - which is more Fab?!

Which Alicia Keys Oscars Look Is More Fab?

FabSugar — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 13:00:22 -0800

One thing is for sure: Alicia was determined to bring some color to the Oscars red carpet. At the award show, the singer was one of the few to wear color in her lilac Armani Prive gown. Later, at the Vanity Fair soiree, she switched the hue up to yellow. It was chiffon like her first dress, but one-shouldered and with a longer train. You decide, which of Alicia's Oscar looks is more Fab?

Which Penelope Cruz Oscar Look Is More Fab?

FabSugar — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 12:30:22 -0800

The Oscars is a huge affair in Hollywood. That's why it's appropriate that most actresses had not one but two dresses to celebrate in. At the actual show, Penelope Cruz donned a vintage Balmain that was like a fairy tale. But at the Vanity Fair afterparty, out came her sizzling side in a white one-shoulder dress with a major slit. Both are gorgeous, but which is more Fab?
