Jennifer Connelly & Winona Ryder at ‘The Dilemma’ premiere: cute or meh?

wenn3157711

I have no idea why the photos from the premiere of The Dilemma are so completely crappy. My only guess is that the film is extremely bad, to the point where no one even wants to promote it, and none of the half-decent photographers were called for the red carpet. Anyway, here’s the best shot we have of Jennifer Connelly (who plays Vince Vaughn’s wife in the film) and her growing baby bump. I don’t know who did the dress – the color looks nice on her, although I’m not a fan of whatever is going on in the shoulders. It makes her look hunched. However, Jennifer looks so lovely with some extra weight, doesn’t she? Her face fills out and she just glows. Surprisingly, though, her hot husband Paul Bettany wasn’t around. Boo!

By the way, you want to see how crappy this movie is going to be? Here’s the version of the trailer after they took out all of the “that’s so GAY” stuff.

Ugh. More photos – here we have the mess of Winona Ryder. The dress is fine – spaghetti-strapped cocktail in black, pretty standard-issue, but the hair and the CRAZY EYES kind of ruin the look.

Vince Vaughn… well, at least he’s not wearing a rug, right?

I had forgotten that Kevin James and his wife were expecting. His wife is gorge.

And Channing Tatum, who plays “the other man” in the film, the one who is boning Winona. I have some affection for Channing, because I think he’s just a sweet ol’ Southern boy at heart… so I’m not judging him for being in this movie. Plus, he looks like the best part of this crapfest.

Ron Howard, you should be ashamed of yourself for making this movie.

    How did Opie get so old…? Sad.

  2. K-Burrrd says:

    Where are Winona’s crack eyes? Her coke eyes made an appearance, but her crack eyes are my fave <3<3<3

  3. Samigirl says:

    Jennifer Connelly looks gorgeous 🙂
    And Kevin James is obviously lucky. His wife is stunning!

  4. Rita says:

    Jennifer looks very nice from the neck up but the dress looks like a bag of dead cats.

    I like and highly respect Ron Howard but close-ups don’t flatter him (unfortunately far-aways don’t either).

  5. brin says:

    Yeah, Kevin James’wife looks the best. Winona, please, step away from the 90’s, we are now in 2011.

  6. nnn says:

    I don’t care what jennifer is wearing. she can put whatever she wants cause she is gorgeous no matter what and plus she is pregnant, so she can do whatever she wants.

  7. happygirl says:

    **snickering @ Rita & brin :)**

    I’ve always loved Jennifer, ever since Labyrinth. I think she’s stunning. The dress…not so much. Sorry, Jennifer, but, you’re married to Paul, so..you’re forgiven.
    Winona’s hair reminds me of my old prom picture. But..I’m glad she’s back.

  8. DD says:

    Connelly looks… dare I say it… cute.
    The dress not so much.

  9. Romy says:

    Winona, I love you, you’re beautiful but pls, hire a stylist NOW!!! Those dresses don’t work for you. Throw them away!!!

  10. viper says:

    wino looks nuts

  11. malachais says:

    Jennifer = stunning!! I actually love this dress
    Winona = simply beautiful, her eyes look crazy because of the flashing lights.

    I kind of want to see this movie, just because of the cast.

  12. Arianna says:

    i love winona, forever
    she can wear a garbage bag and i will still adore her

  13. sasa says:

    Jennifer DOES look better with added weight. She’s a beautiful woman but I find her face to be too drawn most of the time.
    I think Winona’s dress is actually dark green. She has been wearing that exact style the whole season and it doesn’t look very good. The hair is a complete mess. She could look stunning though with different styling because she aged really well.

  14. mln76 says:

    I am ashamed to say I actually saw this last fall at a preview. Totally a bad movie only one good scene in it with Winona and Vince at the diner the rest is just embarassing, especially when you consider the female portion of the cast includes an Oscar winner and two nominees. At least I didn’t pay for it.

  15. kai says:

    It’s SO nice to see Jennifer Connelly looking healthy again. She’s insanely gorgeous. I hope she stays healthy.

  16. boo says:

    mall curls

  17. Hollowdoll says:

    Jennifer definitely looks healthier with added weight. She is so beautiful and married to Paul Bettany. Lucky girl. Winona needs to pull herself together a little more, but I am glad to see her acting again. Although I think this movie is going to be awful. I don’t plan to watch it.

  18. Msshuffleupagus says:

    Winona’s pic looks like one of those prom portraits girls take when they don’t have dates.

  19. Canucklehead says:

    Anything to distract from Vince “anyone got any snacks?” Vaughn.

    What happened to that guy? He just gets fatter and tired-er looking each day

  20. KateNonymous says:

    #1: What would his alternative be? Hard to see why it’s “sad” that someone gets older.

  21. original kate says:

    can someone explain to me why two oscar nominated actresses are in such a crapfest movie? are there really no decent roles for women over 30? sheesh. i also don’t get why vince vaughan is still making movies; i mean, i loved “swingers” but that was a long time and a string of flops ago.

  22. Ari says:

    I think Kevin James is one hot chunky dude and would bang him six ways from sunday. Good going on the beautiful wife!!

  23. Cleo says:

    I never imagined that I would see the resemblance between Kate Winslet and Winona Ryder. And Ron Howard totally looks like his dad.

  24. Ron says:

    Jennifer is so pretty and that dress is so bad, take a couple of tips from KJ wife, she looks hot and preg, it’s not that tricky. Love Winona and glad to see her back again, regardless of her scandals, she’s a lovely actress.

  25. benny says:

    Connelly does look better with more weight. In fact, she looked better before “reinventing” herself with a nose job, boob job, and anorexic weight loss. I don’t know why even beautiful women are never satisfied and driven to this crap.

  26. Nanea says:

    @ # 19 – Canucklehead:

    Vince obviously hasn’t lost the pregnancy weight yet.

    I’m glad JennCon looks a lot better now with the baby weight but her dress is awful. I even liked those Balenciaga things better than this.

  27. jc126 says:

    Nothing sad about Ron Howard. He went from being a successful child star to a young adult actor, then to a successful, Oscar-winning director/producer. He even is still married to his high school sweetheart. Father of 4, now a grandfather, and he’s only what, 56? Seems like a fabulously wonderful life to me.

  28. sally says:

    Ron Howard: Just because you’re bald on top doesn’t mean you have to sport a Bozo the clown.

  29. Nibbi says:

    wow, y’all are rough. JC is insanely, ridiculously, beautiful; the dress is the right color and i can understand the logic of the choice since it’s crinkly and drapey and she probably “feels pregnant,” yah it just is cut in kind of a too-saggy baggy sorta way. WR looks fantastic, i hope to god i age as well as she did in the next decade, the hair’s only issue REALLY is that it’s a little bicolor, i mean come on, she looks young, perky, and fresh, and not in a fake way, actually. she looks totally fab.
    and yah i haven’t ever gotten the vince vaughan thing, ‘cept he was funny in mr. and mrs. smith.

  30. CB Rawks says:

    LOVE Jennifer Connelly.

    @benny,
    Jennifer has never surgically altered herself. She has been that beautiful since she was a young teen, in Once Upon a Time in America. And she’s always had an enviable rack. She might be one of the only truly natural beauties in Hollywood.

  31. Trippin says:

    Sorry, always liked Winona but she’s looking a little bat shit crazy. I think it’s the meds she may be on. She looked better when she was self-medicating. It’s zombified her.

  32. jess says:

    I’m giving Wino a pass because I’m just happy to see her. I do love the dark green color of her dress though. It doesn’t really say ‘red carpet’, but this isn’t really that big of a red carpet event. Hmmm I’m hoping we’ll get to see her come awards season looking much more together since she was in Black Swan.

    And I’ve always loved J Conn. She’s so much better than this movie deserves. I love the slate color too, but there are issues with it. But she’ll get a pass too since she’s J Conn and pregnant.
