Love the new pics! Especially the leather jacket ones....  I wish I could see a larger version of the one with him and Jodie Foster. I hate those darn sites for being teases! |

Oh, yay! Lovely, lovely, lovely - thanks, Uke and Dreamer! I LOVE that first one you posted, Uke - such a devilish look in those eyes  Boy, aren't the reviews mixed? if ever there was a film that polarised opinion, this is it. Some are saying it's the worst film ever, and others that it's the best one in the festival, like this review: You are your own worst enemy
By Jesse Hawthorne Ficks
Guardian contributor Jesse Hawthorne Ficks reflects on his personal best of the fest.
Downloading Nancy - directed by Johan Renck (Canada)
Pain and sadness inhabit most of us. Extreme anger can turn into apathy, and relentless insecurity can turn into absolute self-destruction. In Johan Renck's debut feature, shot by Christopher Doyle, each moment, every shot, even the slightest gesture, accentuates the film's gut-wrenching tone. A married couple of 15 years has lost their magic. More than that, they've lost the feel of one another. Albert (Rufus Sewell) is putting all of his energy into an interactive golf game that airport passengers can practice while Nancy (Maria Bello) spends her days attempting to connect with someone, anyone, online. While the structure of the film slowly unfolds, we are forced to figure out the whys and whens on our own. The cold blue settings, the silent snowy sadness, the frigid impending dread drifting from one scene to the next: it all traps you in this brutal way that makes you want to run out of the theater. In fact during the press screening, dozens of people were leaving and it was not it in a casual way.
The 96-minute Downloading Nancy is pure emotion. And through all of the self-effacing and self-infliction that the characters encounter, you care. You care immensely about these depressed disasters doing the best that they can. You experience their darkest moments and you feel what they cannot. In fact, you'll feel so much that you'll have to decide if you can stay and watch. This is not only the best film at Sundance this year, it provides insight into where you might be headed if you don't start fighting for yourself.www.sfbg.com/blogs/pixel_vision/2008/01/you_are_your_own_worst_enemy.htmlAnd this blog reviewer liked it: This was an unexpectedly dark and gritty film that was based on true events. It follows the fate of a suicidal wife named Nancy (Maria Bello) of an interior designer named Albert who doesn't treat her right (Rufus Sewell), and instead of trying to kill herself, she hires a man named Louis (Jason Patric) that she met on the internet to sexually please her and kill her, but the two of them fall in love. Excellent cast with excellent performances.www.aintitcool.com/node/35379Some reviewers hated the film but praised the performances - my only worry now is that it won't get picked up for distribution  .....on the other hand, if it goes straight to DVD, we get our hot little hands on it sooner! ;D Albert really does sound soooooo boring, doesn't he? They got the best actor to bring him to life, though! |

Because he is not Rufus (who rocks in all these pictures) - Ruf just looks so comfortable, content, laid back. It is nice to see him this way.

Let me add my voice to the echo of thanks for the posting of all these wonderful pictures.
Maybe sometimes there can be too much of a good thing...but not when it comes to pics of da Ruf!!!
