I guess Vanity Fair is going to have a portfolio of actors posing as Hitchcock creations in their big honking Hollywood issue; if you go to their website you can watch a video of the shoot, which begins with the ridiculously entertaining - at least with the sound off - vision of Renee Zellweger having some sort of epileptic fit while getting into character as Kim Novak in Vertigo. Hee.
Here are a few more screen-grabs:
Here are a few more screen-grabs:
Charlize Theron makes a much better Grace Kelly than Scarlett.
Scarlett would've made a better choice for Novak.
Jennifer Jason Leigh as Mrs. Danvers
is so effing amazing it gives me goosebumps.
Marion as Marion! Get it!Nevermind the entirely wrong hair color!
I would so watch an Emile Hirsch and James McAvoy
remake of Strangers on a Train, but only if they seriously
upped the gay and shortened McAvoy's tennis shorts.
And finally, Jodie Foster as the Cat Lady from The Simpsons.
.
Technically, I do believe McAvoy is not the one who would be wearing tennis shorts, if I remember that movie correctly.
ReplyDeleteBut yeah
I can't tell who's supposed to be who in that shot, but Emile Hirsch seems much more like Bruno (Robert Walker) to me than he does a Guy (Farley Granger). Farley wore the tennis shorts; mmmmmmm Farley in tennis shorts...
ReplyDeleteAnyway, while they might seem that way to me, judging by this photo from the movie, you're right, rj.
I knew I was right ;) I mean, I'm not knocking ya. McAvoy in tennis shorts is wonderful
ReplyDeleteActually, the Jodie Foster shot looks uncannily like Tippi from the Birds. Who knew?
ReplyDeleteThe McAvoy-Hirsch picture is simply yummmmmmmmmm. Is it strange that I find them both more attractive whenever they're all cleaned up and set in the 50's? Anyways, I am pumped for this issue. Does anyone know when it hits newsstands?
