Tipped for Greatness in 2011

Ever heard of the Red pages? Neither have we. But for those in the know, it’s a kind of oracle, a pretty accurate prediction of the new faces that will make it big in the world of film, TV, fashion, music, politics, sport, art, society and media.

They got it right last year – who knew Justin Bieber, Tinie Tempah and Carey Mulligan would be dominating showbiz headlines in 2010? The chaps at Red Pages did.

Time to watch an awesome movie, Never Let Me Go.

I watched the movie last Friday and it totally moved me. I cried in the film.
The movie is really, really heartbreaking.
After the movie I decided I want to buy the novel.
Screenwriter Alex Garland adapted Never Let Me Go from the novel of Kazuo Ishiguro, who also wrote The Remains of the Day.
In my oppinion the three central performances by Carey Mulligan, Andrew Garfield and Keira Knightley, are all impressive.
The trailer practically gives away the whole movie. Don´t watch it.


Vi la película el Viernes pasado y me conmovió profundamente. Lloré.
La película es muy, muy triste.
Después de ver la película, decidí que quiero comprar la novela.
El guionista Alex Garland adaptó la novela Never Let Me Go de Kazuo Ishiguro, que también escribió Lo que queda del día.
En mi opinión las tres actuaciones centrales de Carey Mulligan, Andrew Garfield y Keira Knightley, son impresionantes.
El trailer prácticamente te cuenta toda la película, asi que no lo veas.

Carey Mulligan has already forgotten Shia LaBeouf Tom Sturridge?

As late as last night our reader Spike_13 commented on the post break between Shia LaBeouf and Carey Mulligan :

Only he is on the market? And you?

For the "just ask", here's the early bird response: Carey Mulligan you are seeing with another guy, Tom Sturridge, to be exact, and several clues indicate it as the next boyfriend of the actress.

For one thing, to 'Gala the two were spotted very close, and above all have gone away with another ... For one thing, a week ago they were photographed together at the Best Western where she was staying while filming "Drive."

In short, the market for now seems to be left alone Shia. Having said this, if you want to evaluate what this person deserves Tom Carey, after the jump find the full video output from the Hollywood Awards. Then do not say that we spoil you.
