| The perfect remedy for being sick in bed with an awful summer cold....thank you Amazon! Watched it once late last night and really liked it. Watched it again this afternoon....I thought Lauren was great. I think one of the problems with knowing too much about an actor is that you can't suspend reality and get into the character he/she is playing. But, Lauren is just that good 'cause I forgot that she was Lauren, forgot about Lorelai and Adelaide and really bought that she was Elizabeth the chiropractor. Her facial expressions are terrific. At first I though the chemistry with Jeff would be weird, but I bought that too. I thought she conveyed the maternal feelings really well, it wasn't overdone or schmultzy. And, I LOVED her clothes. All those tops and sweaters...I want every single one! I'm thinking again there was a lot of Anthroplogie.
Did anyone who watched the movie and saw her in person at G&D think that she has physically changed? In the movie she looks great but in the photos from G&D she seems so toned and lean. I wonder if it was just the physical workout of the show or if she has undertaken a new exercise regimen (pilates, yoga -- how do you get that lean and still eat and look healthy?!?!). |
