‘Causeway’ Review: Jennifer Lawrence, as a U.S. Army Soldier, Goes Back to Her Indie Roots in a Downbeat Tale of Trauma and Recovery

jokes about the legend Meryl Streep or commenting on Ben Affleck and JLo’s reunion, fans can always count on getting the actress’ authentic thoughts on whatever it is she’s discussing. She’s got that trait in common with plenty of reality stars, as well, so when she sounded off recently against The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and particularly Erika Jayne, such comments did not go unnoticed. The reality star fired back some honest thoughts of her own, though, after The Hunger Games actress called her “evil.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic If you’re someone who considers themself a foodie (and I totally am), chances are there was a moment in the last few years when you had The Awakening. It may have been when the waiter was describing the veal marrow with beat foam served with baby lettuces from New Zealand. It may have been when you were eating the red snapper that was cooked halfway through, like a rare steak, and you thought, “I love sushi, I love cooked fish, but I’m not sure this is really the best of both worlds.” It may have been when you saw the bill. Whatever the trigger, that was the moment you looked up from your plate and realized that high-end foodie culture has become a serious annoyance. It’s gotten too fussy, too pricey, too full of itself, too not filling (of yourself), too avant-garde and conceptual, too tied to The Salvation of the Planet, too much of an ordeal. Did I mention too pricey? It used to be that if you wanted to ridicule culinary mania, you mocked someone like Guy Fieri. But he has risen from the ashes of infamy to a kind of born-again respectability (and yes, “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” was always a great show). Now, if you want to ridicule culinary mania, the most natural targets are restaurants like The French Laundry in Napa Valley or Bros’ in Southern Italy, places where the 12-course “tasting menu” can inspire you to think, as one blogger put it, that “there was nothing even close to an actual meal served.”

Collider in 2020, would’ve had Constantine trying to identify a prisoner who turns out to be a reincarnation of Jesus Christ. Reeves will next be seen in “John Wick: Chapter 4” and will star in the Hulu series “Devil in the White City.” He also recently voiced Batman in Warner Bros.’ “DC League of Super-Pets” and reprised his role as Neo in “The Matrix Resurrections.” Lawrence is currently filming the next “Hunger Games” movie “A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,” which should arrive next year and is a prequel to the original “Hunger Games” franchise.

This is a catfight we never saw coming!

EXCLUSIVE: Broadway and Disney+ actor Andrew Barth Feldman has landed what we hear is a big role opposite Jennifer Lawrence in the Sony Pictures’ R-rated comedy No Hard Feelings.

sundown town. The film tumbles giddily though a montage of late-breaking endorsements, from Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (truly the model for what Booker is doing in Kentucky), Elizabeth Warren and Hollywood power players like Ava DuVernay, Kerry Washington, Regina King and Kentucky’s own Jennifer Lawrence. Some of the transitions are a bit stilted, and the film’s present-tense presentation feels awkward (the news itself is a spoiler). We know how the primary ends, but it is a nail-biter to the very end, nevertheless, from a last-minute injunction called in to beg judges to allow polls to stay open longer for those voters caught in traffic to the weeklong process of counting the mail-in votes.

If you didn’t see, last week, Jennifer Lawrence, who is a Real Housewives super fan, chatted about all of the drama that’s taking place in season 12 of the Beverly Hills installment, and had some harsh words for Erika Jayne Girardi.

Cold as diamonds. Erika Jayne is fighting back after Jennifer Lawrence called her an “evil” cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Erika Jayne is not one to mince words.

Jennifer Lawrence came to fame playing Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games. Now she’s sharing some wisdom she picked up along the way with the cast of the prequel The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic Like an ice-cream shop that offers you the choice of pistachio or strawberry and nothing else, the movies Tyler Perry has been churning out for 20 years come in just two flavors: comedy and soap opera. It’s worth noting, in this case, how the flavors blend. Most often, they’re stacked right next to each other, as when Perry’s great sass-mouth frump Madea suddenly plops into the middle of a dramatic scene. Yet there’s a way that the antic, ribald broadness of Perry’s comedy bends the drama into being more over-the-top. That’s why his movies are all of a piece even when they’re all over the place. They feed you pistachio and strawberry, and by the time that’s all melted together you’re tasting one flavor. Call it Tyler Perry with Nuts.

Jennifer Lawrence candidly shared her thoughts on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ latest season in a new interview. While speaking with her Causeway co-star Brian Tyree Henry at the Toronto International Film Festival, the actress revealed that she's a huge fan of the reality series and gave her take on the newest season. “My biggest problem with this season is that it’s just been boring and I think that Erika (Jayne) is evil,” Jennifer said via Variety.

An honest fan. Jennifer Lawrence is an outspoken reality TV fan, and she didn’t hold back her opinions about The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 12 and star Erika Jayne.

attended the premiere of her upcoming film Causeway at the Toronto International Film Festival wearing a stunning off-the-shoulder Dior Haute Couture dress with a corset-inspired bodice. Lawrence wore the sheer, long-sleeved gown over a pair of high-waisted black briefs and topped off the look with a pair of emerald and diamond Kwiat earrings and strappy black sandals. Similar to her from recent months, Lawrence wore her beachy blonde hair down and swept to the side and kept her makeup look fresh with glowy skin and a classic nude lip. US actress Jennifer Lawrence arrives for the premiere of Causeway during the Toronto International Film Festival in Toronto, Canada, on September 10, 2022. Causeway is a psychological drama starring Jennifer Lawrence as a US soldier recovering from a traumatic brain injury while deployed in Afghanistan. This marks Lawrence's first film premiere in 2022, as well as her first major public appearance since welcoming her first child with husband earlier this year.In a new published in September, the Causeway star revealed that her son's name is Cy and about meeting her baby boy.

Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney had a parents’ night out at the Toronto International Film Festival. On Saturday, ET caught up with the actress during the premiere of her upcoming film, where she dished about motherhood. “Wonderful, thank you,” she told ET’s Rachel Smith about her motherhood journey.  Although she walked the carpet sans Maroney, he was still there to support her for her first film since welcoming their son. When asked if the outing counted for date night, the 32-year-old quipped, «In the sense that we’ll both be in bed by nine.” The actress instead walked the carpet with her co-stars, Linda Emond, Brian Tyree Henry, Lila Neugebauer and Justine Ciarrocchi.Lawrence and Maroney, 38, tied the knot during a star-studded ceremony in 2019.

Wilson Chapman editor In addition to her mega-successful career as an Oscar-winning actor and producer, Jennifer Lawrence is also famous as a “Housewives” franchise superfan. The actor has proclaimed her love for the Bravo series several times and has appeared on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.” While at the Toronto International Film Festival for her film “Causeway,” Lawrence chatted with Variety about her take on “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills'” latest season, and particularly the housewife Erika Jayne. Jayne has been at the center of several controversies involving her husband, Tom Girardi, allegedly embezzling millions of dollars from victims of horrific accidents. And more recently Jayne was caught in an epic face off with current housewives Crystal Kung Minkoff and Garcelle Beauvais when it was suggested that she could pay off the alleged victims with a pair of $1.3 million earrings.

There’s water, water everywhere in “Causeway,” the strong cinematic debut of accomplished theatre mainstay Lila Neugebauer — and oh so much to think about. The laconic Lynsey (a resurgent Jennifer Lawrence in what is plainly her career’s finest performance) explains that she’s drawn to water on a deep, source-of-all-life level while convincing a pool cleaning service’s manager to give her a job skimming scum and fixing filters.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic It’s in the nature of cinema that when a hugely popular and beloved movie is grand enough, the sequel to it almost has to try to top it in a go-big-or-go-home way. For a long time, each new James Bond adventure was more lavishly scaled, baroque, and stunt-tastic than the last. “The Godfather Part II” was darker and longer than “The Godfather,” “The Empire Strikes Back” enlarged the awesomeness of “Star Wars,” and “Terminator 2: Judgement Day” made the first “Terminator” look like a minimalist trinket. So how does that apply to “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery”? Three years ago, Rian Johnson’s “Knives Out” was a seamlessly debonair retro whodunit, set in the mansion of a murdered mystery novelist, that not only evoked the edge-of-your-brain storytelling panache of Agatha Christie but expanded the Christie genre into something delectable in its meta cleverness. At a time when comic-book films, action films, and other forms of kinetic fantasy appeared to be in the final stages of killing off everything else, “Knives Out” was a cathartic reminder that a movie mode we associate with vintage Hollywood — dialogue of airy density and wit, characters who pop with all-too-human flaws and foibles, a plot that zigs and zags until you’ll follow it anywhere — could still make a righteous stand at the megaplex. Holding it all together was Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc, the film’s Southern-gentleman re-imagining of a Hercule Poirot/Sherlock Holmes sleuth, whose wryly deceptive genius made him, for some of us, more super than any superhero.

William Earl Jennifer Lawrence brought serious starpower to the Toronto International Film Festival on Saturday, appearing at the world premiere of her new film “Causeway.” But despite the big, Hollywood name “Causeway” was a quieter character study. Lawrence stars in and produces the film, in which she plays a soldier returning to civilian life in New Orleans. The film also stars Brian Tyree Henry, Linda Emond, Stephen McKinley Henderson and Russell Harvard. “Causeway” is the feature directorial debut of theater veteran Lila Neugebauer, with a script written by Elizabeth Sanders, Luke Goebel and Ottessa Moshfegh.

Jennifer Lawrence is totally winning the red carpet with this look!

for months, and it looks like she's going to keep the style inspiration going as we head into fall. On September 9, was photographed walking the streets of New York City in a form-fitting black dress that screamed fall with long sleeves and a hemline reaching just above the knee. However, Lawrence perfectly demonstrated by pairing the dress with a playful array of mismatched summer accessories. With her long worn down, Lawrence completed the look with a pair of seafoam green flip-flop wedges with a metallic gold clutch, a pair of skinny oval sunglasses, and a statement gold and turquoise necklace that brought everything together. Jennifer Lawrence is seen in the West Village on September 08, 2022, in New York City. After marrying her husband in 2019, Jennifer Lawrence recently earlier this year. Though the star has been and Maroney for much of the summer, she has managed to shield their son, , from paparazzi. “Every instinct in my body wants to protect their privacy for the rest of their lives, as much as I can," Lawrence told during her pregnancy.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic If you’re a fan of “The Trip” and its sequels, those semi-improvised road comedies in which Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon play slightly exaggerated versions of their real-life selves, you’ll know that they’re about more than just two men driving through the European countryside, eating fabulous food, trying to top each other with their Al Pacino impersonations. Coogan, in particular, comes off as a fellow who, for all his larkish narcissism, is so steeped in history that it’s literally alive for him. And that’s the feeling that courses through “The Lost King,” the new movie written by Coogan and Jeff Pope and directed by Stephen Frears. They’re the team that gave us “Philomena” (2013), the sharp-tongued heart-tugger that cast Judi Dench as a real-life Irishwoman tracking down the son she’d been forced to give up for adoption 50 years before. That movie was fine (a tad too sentimental in my book), but “The Lost King” is a growth ring, a richer, stronger, and more moving piece of work, a historical detective story that carries the kick of a true-life “Da Vinci Code.”

Jennifer Lawrence is showing off her chic style during New York Fashion Week!

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic In “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story,” the winningly daffy-droll postmodern satirical biopic about the beloved cult song parodist of the MTV era, Al (Daniel Radcliffe), weird but not yet “Weird,” is sitting around with his roommates when lightning strikes — or, at least, bologna. One of the roommates asks Al to name the thing he’d most like to do in the world. Al, speaking with a fervor bigger than mere desire — he’s talking about nothing less than a dream — replies, with stoic conviction, “Make up the words to a song that already exists.” Moments later, the Knack’s “My Sharona” is blasting away on the radio, and just after he’s taken a package of bologna out of the fridge, he has his a-ha moment. The lyrics come to him in a flash: “Oo my little hungry one! Hungry one! Open up a package of MY bologna…” An irresistible parasitical fake star is born.  

Jennifer Lawrence is frustrated over the pay gap between her and “Don’t Look Up” co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, particularly in terms of gender inequality.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic A good biopic invites the audience to experience, from the inside out, who the subject really was. That’s the level that “Blonde,” Andrew Dominik’s film about Marilyn Monroe, operates on for most of its 2 hours and 46 minutes. Based on Joyce Carol Oates’ 2000 novel, the movie is a hushed and floating psychodramatic Klieg-light fantasia, shot in color and black-and-white, that presents a fusion of reality and fiction. But most of it is torn from reality. In “Blonde,” we glimpse Monroe’s cataclysmic childhood, watch her shoot key scenes from her movies or stare up at them from the audience of a Hollywood premiere (where the red-carpet flashbulbs sound like guns), see her turn the incandescent Marilyn wiggle and pizzazz on and off, see her caught in a maelstrom of drugs, gossip, self-hate, and unfair studio contracts, and watch her melt into the glow of pregnancy only to lose one baby after the next. Mostly, we eavesdrop on her relationships with men (Joe DiMaggio, Arthur Miller, JFK) who become, for Marilyn, a dysfunctional daisy chain of honeymoon-turned-nightmares.

Jennifer Lawrence says that the allegations she slept with Harvey Weinstein was the weirdest thing she’s ever read about herself. The ‘Don’t Look Up’ star thinks it’s “bizarre” people ever thought she had sex with the 67-year-old disgraced movie mogul - who is currently serving a 23-year sentence in a New York prison after being found guilty of rape and sexual assault and facing other legal battles in Los Angeles and London over similar allegations - when reports of his sexually predatory behaviour in Hollywood surfaced and sparked the MeToo movement. After being asked during US Vogue’s ‘73 Question’ video featurette “What was the most bizarre thing you’ve ever read about yourself?”, the 32-year-old actress said: “That I f***** Harvey Weinstein”.

American Vogue, the first-time mum revealed the name and sex of her newborn baby. The 32-year-old Hunger Games alumni told the publication her and Cooke Maroney's baby is a boy named Cy "after the postwar American painter Cy Twombly, one of Maroney’s favourite artists", the outlet explained. She also admitted to finding it "so scary to talk about motherhood".

Jennifer Lawrence is showing off her quick wit and mini-golf skills in a new 73 Questions interview for. Unsurprisingly, the 32-year-old actress had several pop culture hot takes to share, including a hilarious off-the-cuff reaction to Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's rekindled romance. The star answered questions while putting at a climate change-themed Brooklyn mini-golf course as an ominous thunderstorm brewed in the background.

Jennifer Lawrence has reached the upper echelon of A-list actor royalty over the past few years. In a relatively short time, she’s starred in a massive franchise (“Hunger Games”), worked with some of the best filmmakers around, and earned no less than four Oscar nominations (and one win).

Jennifer Lawrence has voiced her frustration with the gender pay gap in Hollywood, stating she’ll always be paid less “because of my vagina”.Speaking to Vogue for their October cover story, the Oscar-winning star acknowledged that actors of her level of fame are “often” overpaid but that she still finds the difference “bothersome”.“It doesn’t matter how much I do. I’m still not going to get paid as much as that guy, because of my vagina?” she said.Her comments come following reports that she earned $5million (£4.4million) less than Leonardo DiCaprio for the Netflix movie Don’t Look Up. The pair starred together in the 2021 Adam McKay comedy about two scientists who warn the world of an approaching comet with the potential to wipe out all human life.But despite being the first name on the call sheet for production, Lawrence reportedly earned $25m (£21.6m) for the film, compared to DiCaprio’s $30m (£26m).Elsewhere in her interview with Vogue, Lawrence expressed her anger at the US Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v.

Jennifer Lawrence has finally revealed the name and sex of her first child. The Oscar-winning actress welcomed a baby with art gallery director Cooke Maroney, her husband of three years, in February, but she didn't share any details about her newborn at the time. However, in a cover interview for U.
