Report: Despite Bigelow's Oscar, Celluloid Ceiling Higher Than Ever for Women

EXCLUSIVE:

Kathryn Bigelow won the "Best Director" Oscar last year but it's still a man's world in Hollywood -- especially behind the camera.

Just ask Catherine Hardwicke. She directed 2008's "Twilight," the first in the hugely successful vampire franchise, but Hardwicke told TheWrap she was prevented from even pitching to direct "The Fighter."

Charlie Sheen's Rehab - What It Will Cost 'Two and a Half Men'

Charlie Sheen's rehab leaves his potentially billion-dollar show with a third of its season unshot -- but his bosses are far from complaining.

CBS and Warner Bros. executives – who have raked in money even as they winced at Sheen's misadventures – have repeatedly stressed that nothing is more important to them than his health.

2011 SAG Awards: Cinched In and Belted Up

When it comes to dissecting red carpet trends, it tends to fall into categories of colour. This year was no excpetion, with white, bold brights and ever-present nude tones all showing up prominently on our best dressed celebs. But another less obvious trend caught our attention - the belted dress. The perfect way to show off a teeny waist AND ramp up those curves is with a cinched silhouette. Louis Vuitton was a front runner of this ladylike trend, and Claire Danes was a picture of waspish-waisted perfection in this floral frock today. Other ladies to follow suit included a monochrome clad Ariel Winter, Mila Kunis in Alexander McQueen, Rosario Dawson in J. Mendel, Christina Hendircks in L'Wren Scott, as well as Lea Michele and Jennifer Lawrence - both in Oscar de le Renta. Simple but super effective, the waist is where it's at.

Sundance Dealwatch: Fox Searchlight Picks Up World Rights to Another Earth

When Fox Searchlight returned to Los Angeles from Sundance and screened micro-budget sci-fi romance Another Earth for the rest of the gang on the studio lot, the movie played so well that execs were encouraged to acquire the rest of the available territories on the film. So the movie did go for more than Searchlight's initial $750,000 for English-speaking territories. The official total figure is $2.75 million for world rights. More IndieWIRE details on the deal are here.

Production Watch, Part 2: De Palma's Passion, Untouchables; Jay-Z & Willow Smith's Annie Confirmed

- Brian De Palma is stepping out to direct a remake of France's 2010 psychodrama Crime d'amour (Love Crime), with the title Passion. "Not since Dressed to Kill have I had a chance to combine eroticism, suspense, mystery and murder into one spellbinding cinematic experience," De Palma told Variety. Set in the UK, the France-Germany-UK-Spain co-production is in the works at Paris-based SBS Productions (they also have Polanski's Gods of Carnage in the works with Jodie Foster, Kate Winslet, Christoph Waltz and John C. Reilly). Productions like this are moving away from U.S. financing due to the limitations of the U.S. market, according to SBS's Ben Said: "Movies of this kind are very difficult to make today in the U.S. because the U.S. doesn't have ...

Twilight's Ashley Greene & Joe Jonas spotted at French Market dinner. Twilight Saga star Ashley Greene was recently spotted back out with her famous man Joe Jonas two nights ago in Los Angeles,California for a French Market dinner outing. The Alice Cullen cutie looked smoking hot in her nice dress ensemble while Joe sported dark casual attire as paparazzi snapped away. According to sources, the two love birds went to get dinner at the French Market Place. It's also reported that Joe recently gave Ashley a promise ring to show he's very committed to her.

Sundance Review | "Son of No One" Marks a Career Low for Director Dito Montiel

It's strange to think that just a few years ago, Dito Montiel was a Sundance darling whose sharp 2006 debut "A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints" announced his transition from former punk rocker to refined filmmaker. Instead of following up that deeply personal adaptation of his own memoir with similarly humanistic stories, Montiel turned to genre. His gritty little-seen 2009 drama "Fighting" had its defenders, but "Son of No One" ...

Chris Brown on Court Hearing: Standard Procedure


Chris Brown caused a bit of a stir late last week with a request to have the restraining order lifted against him. The order bars any contact with Rihanna.

The singer's rep is shooting down speculation that his lawyer made the request for any particular reason - such as a rendezvous with Ri at the Grammys.

Not so, says his camp. It's just the next step in the process of Chris completing the terms of his sentence and moving forward with clearing his name.

Possibly the Hottest Couple Ever

Tammy Brook, a rep for Brown, insists that there was no specific motive, and "the lifting of the restraining order is part of the ongoing legal proceedings."

"The date was scheduled months ago. Chris Brown is thankful for his nominations, but due to scheduling conflicts, [won't] attend the Grammys."

As part of the Rihanna assault case, Brown's attorney asked the judge to reduce the "stay away" order against him to a "do not annoy" order.

While the judge again praised Brown for his progress, the ruling was put off until a later date because Rihanna's attorney couldn't be reached.

As previewed in this clip, Andy Cohen will raise the topic of Kim's drinking. Based on this video, it's clear the woman needs help. But does she agree? Get a sneak peek now:

If you needed to establish once and for all that real-life Heather Morris is worlds different than her hilarious character Brittany on Glee, here's your proof. Heather looks a lot more like a cream puff than a Cheerio in this peach gown, especially with that crystal-embroidered bodice. Keeping her accessories on the DL, she lets the intricate detailing on her dress do the talkin'. Clever lass. What's your thoughts? Love it? Or hate it?
