  1. I love her, I absolutely love Keira Knightley. I’ve liked her since her first Pirates role, and I believe she’s going to become a real legend during her lifetime. And she is so beautiful, I really think she is just so beautiful…

  2. I am really happy that she thinks being naked is easier but she should keep her clothes ON. She looks like Olive Oil, pretty face, too skinny for nude scenes. Just stick to closeups of your face Keira!

  3. She’s no Audrey Hepburn, but does have that ‘waif like’ appearance.

  4. I liked Keira a lot, especially after seeing The Jacket (one of my favorite films), until I read several articles about a year ago; in them, she supposedly said that she wished she could be a nobody again. She said that being famous sucked! How ungrateful is that? JayBird, do you know which articles I’m speaking of?

    Keira is also one of those people who just cannot dress themselves. Man– :roll:

  5. I like Kiera a lot too, but my girl has a few drinking/eating/dressing issues.

    And why the fucktard are they remaking My Fair Lady??!?!? Who in the world would be good enough to play Prof. Higgins? (Unless its Alan Rickman… is it Alan Rickman??!?)

  6. I’m with Keira. I would much rather be naked than let people hear me sing :P

  7. Audrey Hepburn, they’ll never be another Audrey Hepburn.
    Still one of the world most beautiful women to have ever lived.

  8. i didn’t know she could sing either. i sort of think she’s a complete twat. i remember her in that soccer movie and wondering how most soccer players couldn’t even play if they were that thin. seriously…

  10. I just wanted to state how horrified I am that there is a remake of My Fair Lady being made….it makes me want to cry. That movie is a classic and is beautiful and perfect the way it is, what the hell are we paying writers for if they can’t come up with new, valued material?
    If something isn’t broke, don’t try to fix it.

  11. And if they really do feel the need to remake it, at least find an actress who can ACTUALLY sing, as it IS a musical and that it kind of the point….and before you bite my head off, I am well aware that Audrey did not sing her part, but she’s Audrey Hepburn for goodness sakes, and is far above Kiera in regards to acting and class, so I render the fact that she didn’t sing her part completely unimportant.
    All I’m saying is why can’t they find someone who is perhaps unknown but a good actress AND singer for the part?
    Are they so concerned that it will be a box office failure that they need to attach Knightly’s name it it?
    The mere fact that she had to get sloshed for her audition makes her completely unqualified for the part in my eyes.

  12. Why in the world do the studios think they need to remake the classics? I mean, its great Dark Knight is getting such good reviews but did we really need another Batman movie featuring the Joker? I heard MTV is remaking Rocky Horror Picture show - who can ever top Tim Currey as Dr Frankenfurter? While I love Johnny Depp, we didnt really need a remake of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. And now Keira Knightley as Eliza? Why??
    Someone needs to start making some original movies instead of copycatting. Surely there are more stories to be told.

  13. “I just wanted to state how horrified I am that there is a remake of My Fair Lady being made….it makes me want to cry.” I second that. You just know that they’re going to cast Colin Farrell as Freddy or Will Farrell as Col. Pickering or whatever other boneheaded things they can do to totally ruin the story. Well, we’ll always have Audrey.

    Keira Knightly’s fame is a mystery to me. She always looks like she just got done clicking her tongue at someone. All the charm and personality of a dead houseplant.

  14. I think she is lovely. She was good in the pirate films, atonement, the jacket, bend it like beckham, pride and prejudice. nice resume for a such a young actress.

    She is just lovely and she comes across as very kind and funny

  15. Personally I think nudity in films is fine as long as it furthers the plot or plays in naturally (I found that shirtless shot of Halle in Swordfish was completely superfluous, for example). And as far as her chest goes, I believe Michele is wrong. Her basis for saying that Kiera shouldn’t do nude scenes may not be in reference to her lack of cuppage, but that is what it sounds like. The lady in “The Serpent and the Rainbow did a very sexy scene with a very small chest. We North Americans seem to be stuck on the (wrong) impression that in order to be sexy you have to be very skinny and have big boobs at the same time. This is not so. So saying, I think Kiera should go wherever the scen takes her, if the movie is right. Oh, and I think she is awesome.

  16. Because I say So:

    I like Keira too, but WTF??! Hollywood executives, what is WRONG with you? Leave our beloved Eliza Doolittle alone and find something else to butcher. Like other posters, I can’t imagine what need they must have to remake it. Such a shame.

  17. I love the acceptance of her flat-chestedness, and I loved it too, until about the age of 40, when the face wasn’t looking quite so marvelous….

  18. Sorry, I know that was off-topic,but I just couldn’t help it! Forgot what the friggin’ topic was…. too many glasses of pino grigio…..

  19. Ms Knightley isn’t a reincarr of Audrey Hepburn who was dreadfull but of Julie Andrews who played Lize in the Broadway and to whom I grew up listening to as me parents listened to the record every Sunday, singing along loudly (we were transplanted Brits).

  20. They’re going to remake The Rocky Horror Picture Show??

    Why? They’ll never top the original cast.
    Richard O’Brien will take the money and run though

  21. I agree with everyone who bemoaned studios making yet another remake of a classic film.
    Is the imagination of Hollywood script writers really so dried up that there are no NEW ideas for them to try?
    Or are the studios so focused on securing a profit that they would rather re-make an excellent movie than try something new?
    I wish movies could be much the way they were in the 40’s and 50’s–small budgets, great actors, tons of movies made, lots of crap but some real jewels. And since they didn’t spend a bazillion dollars to make a movie, if a movie flopped it wasn’t an earth-shaking, career-ending tragedy. You just went and made another (or fifty) and somewhere you’d get luckier!

  22. jaundicemachine:

    To be fair, Jaybird, there is a difference between having a few to “loosen up” and getting downright “drunk”, as you inferred in the title. Not that I know the difference between the two, mind you, but remember hearing that . . . somewhere . . . :wink:

  23. ‘Keira Knightley got drunk for her My Fair Lady audition’ –Right, but then someone told Pea Brain that alcohol has a lot of calories, so she puked five minutes later.
