Gary Oldman Slept In A Coffin During The Filming Of “Bram Stoker’s Dracula”

There’s no end to the stories about serious actors getting as serious as possible for a role, and living out that character through the process known as method acting. And usually when an actor throws themself into the method process, they’re basing their performance on a real person or a real experience that they can measure their choices against. Well, all of those method actors are amateurs compared to Gary Oldman. Gary Starred in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1992 film Bram Stoker’s Dracula, as the titular Dracula. And you might be wondering how the hell someone method acts as a totally-fictional character creature with zero basis in reality. Because really, who is going to check you for accuracy? Vampires aren’t real! But Gary found a way. Specifically, he went as method as a human can go when playing a vampire, and he slept in a coffin every night.

Francis Ford Coppola Disputes Winona Ryder’s Account Of Verbal Abuse On The Set Of “Bram Stoker’s Dracula”

One might rightfully call Winona Ryder a sticky-fingered vixen, but to call her a liar, as Mel Gibson did earlier this week when he disputed her account of an abhorrent antisemitic comment he allegedly made to her at a party, is not really fair. Especially coming from an unflushable turd with a long and well documented history of abhorrent antisemitic behavior. Now, according to People, Francis Ford Coppola has come forward to dispute another anecdote Winona shared in her recent Sunday Times interview.

Mostly Everyone Did Black At The BAFTAs With Varying Degrees Of Success

It would have been a nearly all-black fashion show at the BAFTAs in London last night, in honor of the Time’s Up movement. But the class average was brought down by Duchess Kate (who was prevented from wearing black by royal no-politics protocol), and Frances McDormand (who just didn’t feel like it and showed up in pink-on-black instead).

For mostly everyone else, it was a multitude of black. Or black with a random kick of not-black, like Allison Janney. And by random, I mean a satin choker bolero on top of a Bibhu Mohapatra dress. It looks like a shirt made from the bottom half of Roger the Alien from American Dad that was put on backwards and upside down.

Gary Oldman’s Third Ex-Wife Talked About How He Ruined Her Life And Attacked Her

I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that Gary Oldman has probably done some highly questionable shit in the past. If his terrible defense of Mel Gibson from a while back is any indication, he’s probably got more skeletons in his closet than a hoarding chiropractor. Gary has been winning awards everywhere for Darkest Hour, and since we’re in the era of #MeToo, people have brought up his dark past, like when his third wife (now third ex-wife) accused him of domestic abuse. So Gary’s third ex-wife, Donya Fiorentino, has come out to tell The Daily Mail about how the four years she was married to him were the worst 4 years of her life.

Open Post: Hosted By Future Oscar Winner Laurie Metcalf At The Palm Springs Film Festival

Actors hungry for that Oscar prepared for hustling season last night by Spanx-ing up their bodies, saying goodbye to real food for a couple of months and gargling with lemon-infused hot water so their voices are moistened up enough for them to talk, talk and talk about how much they suffered while playing the role they should win all the awards for. Of course I’m not lumping Laurie Metcalf with those actors. She doesn’t have to do all that shit, because she’s Laurie Fucking Metcalf and if she wants respect, all she has to do is say, “I played Aunt Jackie in Roseanne.”

Awards season officially started last night with the opening of The Palm Springs International Film Festival, where Jessica Chastain (Chairman’s Awards), everyone involved with The Shape of Water (Vanguard Award), Allison Janney (Spotlight Award), Gary Oldman (Desert Palm Achievement Award, Actor), Mary J. Blige (Breakthrough Performance Award), Holly Hunter (Career Achievement Award), Timothée Chalamet (Rising Star Award), Willem Dafoe (Icon Award) and more were honored.

Laurie Metcalf was there to honor her Lady Bird co-star Saoirse Ronan with the Desert Palm Achievement Award, Actress. We already knew this, but Aunt Jackie is a saint. I mean, she showed up to an award show to give someone else a trophy instead of getting one. A 20-year-old model is probably trapped under a passed out Leonardo DiCaprio right now, because he fainted over the thought of that.

Not only did Laurie Metcalf show up to honor someone else, but she brought the glamour too by wearing what a 90s Taco Bell would wear if it was turned into a human and became the leader of a new age cult.

Here’s more from last night, and you can stop after Suzanne Somers, because the star power and glamour does downhill from there.

Gary Oldman Is A Newlywed For The Fifth Time

Can you believe that Gary Oldman is only 59! I swear I’m not trying to be cute here but I always thought Gary was a, well, an older man. Maybe it was the old man rantings from of while back. At any rate Gary may be younger than I thought but in terms of marriages, he’s got the track record of a man who’s definitely been around the block a few times. Page Six reports that he’s just entered into his fifth go-round at the altar with Gisele Schmidt.
