Australia Poster
Latino Review uncovered a new poster for Baz Luhrmann's Australia.
"Australia" is an epic and romantic action adventure, set in that country on the explosive brink of World War II. In it, an English aristocrat (Nicole Kidman) travels to the faraway continent, where she meets a rough-hewn local (Hugh Jackman) and reluctantly agrees to join forces with him to save…
Nicole Kidman Goes For The Gold
Nicole Kidman glitters in gold as she smiles along side costar (and Sexiest Man Alive) Hugh Jackman at the premiere of their new Baz Luhrmann epic Australia at Kinepolis cinema on Tuesday (December 2) in Madrid, Spain.
Standing close by was Nicole’s husband, country crooner Keith Urban.
Nicole, I’d love to see you in a pair of tall stillettos sometime. Please and thank you!

Can Australia dispel Hollywood's fear of epic films?
Filmmaker Baz Luhrmann calls them "banquets of cinema," visual and narrative feasts that offer audiences drama, romance, comedy and that sweeping feeling of being transported to another world
In other words: an epic.
Creating an epic is not for the faint of heart or those with limited ambition, which is why the audacious Luhrmann – who reconceived the movie musical with Moulin Rouge! and the Shakespearean tragedy with Romeo + Juliet – deliberately aimed his latest film, Australia, which opened
Men Must Always Be Watchful
Newish one-sheets for a pair of major year-end releases came through yesterday -- the Australian-market poster for Baz Luhrman's Australia (which opens in Oz on Thursday, 11.13, according to the IMDB, preceding its Wednesday,11.26 U.S. release by 13 days) and a fresh image -- less communal, emphasis on Daniel Craig's studliness -- for Ed Zwick's Defiance (Paramount Vantage , 12.12). The latter was exclusively previewed late yesterday afternoon by Kris Tapley's In Contention.
Ed Zwick's Defiance (Param
Watch It! Australia
As Kathy Marks wrote last month, Baz Luhrmann's antipodean epic Australia is
one of the most anticipated films of the year. The film is a love story
starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman, set in the outback- think The Thorn
Birds meets Gone With The Wind.

I’m in Ohio right now, and the only thing I don’t like being in the east coast is the time difference, my body is not adjusting very well. Cross your finger so that I won’t fall sick.

[I like to think of myself as a pretty easy going gal, and try not to sweat the small stuff. But sometimes (ok, maybe slightly more often) the general cluelessness, carelessness and overall stupididty of some things and or/people really gets to me. I find that venting is the most efficient way to rid myself of the stress that idiots, wrong meal orders, lack of cell phone ettiquette and cheese flavored products (that don’t even contain any freaking cheese!) induce.

Nicole Kidman forse è diventata madre tardi
Bellissima a 41 anni, nonostante i primi segni del tempo, la super star Nicole Kidman, neo mamma della piccola Sunday Rose, ammette di aver paura di essere diventata madre tardi. In un’intervista confessione alla rivista Elle la signora Urban ha infatti ammesso

PROOF: Nicole Kidman’s Baby Is Real and Exists
Remember about a year ago, when it seemed that Nicole Kidman was pregnant with a ghost bump for somewhere around 13 to 15 months? Well, when we heard she "delivered" the "baby", it's safe to say we were skeptical.
But if these photos are to be believed, Nicole Kidman really and truly had a baby! A little girl named Sunday Rose. Aww. Here's Nicole struggling through layers of face poison to kiss her child:
Is it sad to say she has more wrinkles than her mother? Not only isn't it sad, it's joyo
Nicole Kidman Harangued by Unruly Facebookers
As if it weren't bad enough that Vulture buddy Nikki Finke has begun to label the underperforming Australia as "Rupert's folly," Nicole Kidman now finds herself on The Receiving End of scorn from social-networking miscreants. Australian native Brendan Shanahan (not to be confused with the former New York Ranger) has started a Facebook group called "Am I Taking Crazy Pills or is Nicole Kidman the Worst Actress in the World?," a group which boasts at press time a (less than impressive) total of 246 members.
