I will be seated for this new Netflix limited series called The Perfect Couple. Nicole Kidman is at her best when she’s a rich woman with secrets! The rest of the cast looks good too. It’s cool that Liev Schreiber is in it. [Buzzfeed]

    *sigh* Liev Schriber has that rough salt and pepper look that really does it for me – swoon.

    Anyways I will watch this – looks interesting and has a good cast.

    • Andrea says:

      I actually think she is looking better!! The Expats was an amazing series but her faces. Why most beautiful people do that to themselves? I want more actresses like Justine Bateman.

    • Apples says:

      I once run into Liev Shreiber at a store in New York. Face to face. He’s tall and very good looking (way taller than my 5’9)!

  2. Sass says:

    Shelley Duvall was treated so abominably. I read a NYT article about her months ago, a longform story format interview with her. It was really well done. Hoping she is at peace.

  3. FYI says:

    What happened to Nicole’s face? Is that some kind of prosthetic!?!?

    • pyritedigger says:

      In the stills she is photoshopped into oblivion. In the preview, she had some major tweaks + post-processing.

    • Tate says:

      Never would have guessed that was Nicole. Looks nothing like her.

    • Danbury says:

      I watched her in A Family Affair on Netflix and her face was super distracting. She was trying to emote and failing. It was horrid

      • sparrow1 says:

        Danbury – yes. She can’t emote any longer. The Undoing was the same. The director had to keep showing her eyes in close up. Tearing up; bloodshot; reflections in them etc. All they had left to emote was her eye balls! I can’t imagine making your face so immobile, esp for acting.

      • kaykay says:

        I saw the trailer for it and she looked horrible. Poor girl.
        Someone has to tell her to stop. I hope she is not ruined. Being completely wrinkle free does not equal more beautiful.

      • JJ says:

        I was also very distracted by her frozen face in The Undoing. It’s a shame because I think she’s a good actor but if you can’t show emotions it truly limits what you can convey on screen. I’m sad for her, that she’s doing that to herself. I’d like to see her in more stuff but I can’t watch a face that doesn’t move.

    • Barb Mill says:

      She looks like Elle Fanning. She needs to stop.

    • Mia says:

      Just ask her and she will sprout the usual Hollywood crap about good skin care and sunblock. She’s been messing with her face for years. She looks ridiculous in the recent netflix Family Affair movie must have had a touch up before filming.

  4. Chaine says:

    This looks so gooooood! I dont want to wait until September 5 to see it!!!

  5. Truthiness says:

    David Zaslav doesn’t have an ethical bone in his body. Saying that you don’t care who wins the presidency, you just want deregulation is saying “I’m voting Trump but I want to look impartial.”

  6. Mee says:

    I thought it was just me that noticed Nicole’s face. I was watching Family Affair and the first scene between her and Zac Efron I had to stop watching the film because NEITHER of their faces moved. Oh well

    • Mia says:

      She looks ridiculous. In the Christmas lunch scene where they are all sitting around the table the others talking and she is reacting she looks like a gold fish all big goggly eyes and round pushed out mouth top lip can’t even move like the rest of her face. Silly woman. I’d much rather watch Jamie Lee Curtis on screen much better actress and such a great comedian.

      • therese says:

        Thank you all for saying this. Family affair was hard to concentrate on because all I could stare at, and not emerse myself in the story, was Nicole’s face. I’ll just have to second and third this: her face was SO distracting, along with Zac Efron. These were two people I thought were smart. It made me sad. Those permanently puckered lips were distracting too. She used to be so beautiful. And we all age, but I watch so many British productions, and I just can’t help but think that their film industry is so much more forgiving, and that so many women look naturally aged. And yet I get completely emersed in the storyline because their face is not a rictus of plastic.

  7. B says:

    Thanks for linking to the Tom Ford resort line! I totally love it, and even though I can’t afford it, I think I will do a little bit of copying ;).

  8. sparrow1 says:

    I was all guns blazing for this and then The Guardian gave it a 2 star review. I normally chuck in an extra star if it’s Peter Bradshaw, which it was, but 3 isn’t going to get me tuning in. (I normally take off at least one if not two for a Lucy Mangan review!)

  9. Flamingo says:

    Some of the Tom Ford pieces are so beautiful. Off to Amazon to find some dupes!

  10. HillaryIsAlwaysRight says:

    Political correspondent for Vogue would have been perfect for JFK Jr.

  11. kimmy says:

    Nuh-uh, you won’t fool me again, Netflix. Every single Netflix original that I’ve watched has been either basic and just okay or sooo bad that I feel sorry for the people that wasted their time making it and me for watching it (I’m talking about you, Eric).

    Most Netflix’s originals is stuff that would’ve been direct-to-DVD decades ago. The only thing that separates them from Tubi originals is the budget.

  12. Gremlin says:

    I knew it would come to this. So now we’re AI-ing women’s faces to unrecognizable in movies? Nicole’s isn’t the only female face in that trailer that looks AI.

    • Mia says:

      No buy she’s one of the worst offenders. Especially when she sprouts the nonsense about only using sunscreen and good skin care same as Elle McPherson.

  13. Aerie says:

    At 57, Nicole continues to be a very sought after actress. Her projects aren’t always successful but she’s defying the odds by being able to choose when to work. It’s unfortunate that she’s leaned so heavily into cosmetic enhancements because in a few years she’ll pull a Meg Ryan and start complaining about ageism.

  14. Kate says:

    Does Nicole have a debt problem or something? She pumps out so many projects a year and they all look the same.

  15. Elle says:

    Re Tom Ford – look 24 brought back memories of my beloved Juicy Couture terrycloth and velvet tracksuits. I was in college at the time they were all the rage. I had an aqua terrycloth set for spring and a black velvet for fall / winter. They were hilariously unflattering, in hindsight.

  16. Cathleen Cahill says:

    Ugh, I can’t with that Tim Ford collection. It is so Twiggy, I don’t want to go back to that. Something nice: I like the colors when I could see them.
