BYOB (Bring Yer Own Blurb)

John Maybury (pictured left, director of the upcoming Edge of Love) is mocking me. He's one-upped my "blurb whore" joke, taking it to new extremes. See how he's positioned himself and rock legend Siouxsie Sioux (Y) directly under their own pullquote?! "absolutely sensational"

Clever bastard.

Then news comes that he convinced Keira Knightley to go topless for that new movie. Big deal. This is the same man who got Daniel Craig naked in that bathtub for Love is the Devil (1998), surely one of the great achievements in nineties cinema.

Definitely a clever bastard.

If you haven't seen the trailer to Edge of Love yet, it's been out for awhile and it's here. (Can you tell the summer movies are boring me?)
