Ending Relationships
Penelope and Javier Get In Thanksgiving Spirit With Sean Penn
Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem may not be from the United States, but they celebrated Thanksgiving with their friend Sean Penn this year. The couple stopped off for gas and drinks before arriving at Penn's house for the holiday feast. Penelope has been busy on the promotional campaign for Broken Embraces and the upcoming Nine, but she always manages to avoid questions about her relationship.
Which Magazine Will You Pick Up This Weekend?
It's a holiday weekend, which means extra days to check out the week's celebrity headlines. Us kicks things off exploring John Mayer's many relationships, while People examines why Oprah decided to announce the end of her talk show. Life & Style takes us behind the scenes on Angelina and Johnny's upcoming big screen collaboration, and Star takes a look at celebrity bikini bodies.
The Road: A Bleak Journey That Will Haunt You
It's not that I was expecting a film adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's The Road to be happy sunshine — I just wasn't expecting it to seem so possible.
The apocalyptic tale takes place in a wasteland in the future after most humans are gone. It's desolate, the sky is a brownish-gray, and the land seems to be covered with ash.
Buzz-Worthy Video: How I Met Your Mother's Slap Bet Game
I was excited to see what How I Met Your Mother would cook up for its annual Thanksgiving episode, especially when I saw that this week would feature Chris Elliott as Lily's estranged dad, Mickey Aldrin. We found out why they were estranged (the failed board game entrepreneur was leeching off her grandparents), and watched their relationship be restored over the course of the day.
The best thing to come out of it?
House Rundown, "Ignorance is Bliss"
With Cameron gone, the new (old) team is still working out the kinks in this week's House — and it feels like the writers aren't sure where the show's going either. The episode tackles a genius patient with what appears to be TTP, Thanksgiving, and House and Cuddy all in one swoop. And while the doc is back to acting like a selfish jerk following his recent good behavior, I didn't even find his quips that amusing.
Ask a Wife: How Do I Stop Being the Other Woman?
Conventional Wisdom is a different kind of advice column. Your questions will be answered by people from all walks of life rather than by advice experts. This week, a woman in a happy marriage tries to help out a woman stuck in an affair.
You Asked: Should I Move in With Him?
Dear Sugar--
I am 33 years old. I was in a dead-end relationship for 9 years and lived with someone who really had no intention of marrying me; he was even afraid to talk about it. I moved out and broke up with him in December, moved in with a friend of mine and began dating a man that I have known for 8 years and things have been WONDERFUL!
Dear Poll: How Do You Feel About Romantic Films?
Whenever I see a romantic comedy, or even a epic romance film, I can't help but feel a little frustrated. Sure, I love to see the main characters end up happily ever after, but let's be realistic, it usually doesn't work out that way! I happen to think movies like When Harry Met Sally give false hope that Mr. Right could be right in front of your face when realistically that's a pretty uncommon scenario.
Grey's Anatomy Rundown, "Holidaze"
As evidenced in my holiday TV sneak peek, this week's episode of Grey's Anatomy puts the doctors on a fast track that starts on Thanksgiving eve and runs through New Year's Eve. As we all know by now, the Seattle Grace surgeons aren't always big on merriment, but the holidays are always the perfect time to bring out the truth in feelings and relationships.
Meredith bonds with the Chief while Mark learns that he has a teenage daughter.
The Blind Side: An Unexpected Delight
It's not that the trailer for The Blind Side isn't compelling; the problem is that it combines Sandra Bullock's twangiest, most-over-the top lines with a heartrending song, which makes it seem schlocky. That's exactly what I expected from the movie, but I have to admit that I was wrong — to my surprise, I found it to be a sentimental gem that's actually quite restrained.
The Blind Side is the true story (based on Michael Lewis's book) of NFL player Michael Oher, who grew up in Memphis's projects with his drug-addicted mother and landed in and out of foster homes.
