'12
These are some new photos of Rooney Mara and her God and Creator, director David Fincher, in Rome. I guess Daniel Craig wasn’t contractually obligated to make appearances for The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo any further than Berlin. Or maybe Rooney and Fincher just wanted to have some private time in Rome. Is that gross? I can’t decide if it’s really gross or just sort of uncomfortable. Obviously, there’s the age difference, and the difference in status. It’s all so Pygmalion – Prof. Higgins and his Eliza Doolittle. And look at the way they look at each other. They’re doing it. Gross? Eh.
As for Rooney and her shot of color – my immediate assumption was correct, this dress is Valentino. It reminds me of the lace dress Keira Knightley wore at the 2011 Venice Film Festival premiere of A Dangerous Method, although I liked Keira’s a lot better, and Keira wore her dress with more elegance. Still, it’s interesting to see Rooney in color. Red works on her, and I appreciate that her makeup is improving. I still think she needs a new stylist, though.
I’m also including photos from the photo call earlier in the day yesterday. I wish we had better photos of Rooney’s dress at the Rome photo call. She wore this odd Dion Lee leather dress – you can see it here. It’s… weird. I don’t think Rooney has the kind of figure that she thinks she has.

Very, very, very, very pretty dress. I wish someone like Angelina Jolie had worn this at the prime of her beauty.

She needs to hike her boobs up a few inches. They looked sad and neglected.
And the red dress would look better cocktail or even tea-length.

I don’t like her hair. I wish she’d wear more makeup, too. She looks like a zombie. The Valentino dress is nice, but everything else is just ick.

I wish she’d do something about those godawful bangs. Yes, I realize she’s probably contractually obligated to keep them until the second and third movies are done filming, but she’s pushed them off to the side on one or two red carpets and that makes her look so much better!

Bangs trauma. They look like a low slung yarmulke.

I like that dress, and I’m not really a frilly person. Her makeup looks great with it too, but I agree the hair is too severe.

Ha ha..oh man…the bangs trauma just kills me. The dress is awful but I guess it suits her *oh-so-avante-garde-style*? She’s just so completely unattractive to me. Bleh. Cue the “she’s so edgy and stylish and different!” defense comments.

I’m seriously bored by her.

I came here to say the same thing.

I have no idea how some people can keep up with her, saying she’s boring is an understatement. Even with a bit more color, she still looks painfully uncomfortable.

Dress is ok – makeup is better than usual. The bangs have got to go – makes it look like she only has half of a head.

the last picture says it all….but on a positive note her makeup is really pretty!

That’s what I was thinking. Like she thinks Daddy might have farted or something. Ewww.

I think she looks very nice. I don’t even hate the bangs when they are styled like they are in the red dress. She looks very pretty which she has that little angelic smirk on her face…she knows how to work her angles, thats for sure.

Rooney is homely looking, and I’m sick to death of everything about her–her horrible make-up, those dumb bangs, her “I’m so edgy” terrible fashion choices, and her superior attitude. Go away, Rooney. Please.

She reminds me of another actress that was touted as the next big thing — Hilary Swank. Talented, but not lots of appeal, for some reason.

Valentino is for women who are over 30.
After the royal wedding, and that hideous beige number that Princess Eugenie (either her or her sister) wore, I dislike Valentino. He needs to retire.
This dress, although a nice colour, reminds me of a toilet roll cover.

Um- Valentino did retire about 4 years ago. Two shoe/handbag designers are now running the line. Watch “The Last Emperor” if you want a good laugh.

“Although nice”
Hilarious. And true.

What is up with her face? In some photos I’ve seen of her from this litttle tour she looks very unattractive and goofy and yeah you get my meaning. Then in others she looks really gorgeous!

she’s a hit-or-miss photographee (is that a word?)
i feel her pain on that one. some photos you look great, and then a tiny shift of the head and you look like a troll.

Meh, I bet she’s prettier in real life. I have the same problem as her-sharp features, thin face, ears that stick out- and look consistently horrible in about half the photos I’m in. With a thin, angular face, even the slightest asymmetry can show up in photos and make a person look “off” while you would never notice it in person.

The last pic of her looking up smiling…that one she looks soooooooo CUTE!

I like the top part of the red dress. The bottom, not so much.

I just feel like tilting her chin up. The way Fincher is looking at her makes me feel icky.

Her make up looks very nice. I also hate those bangs, but I guess she has to keep them for a bit.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
yeah, people don’t get that she’s still slightly keeping in character for the promo of the film. Her hair and style will change after it’s over.

These two definitely have something between them–you can see the tension in the photos. I feel bad for Cean, his producing/life partner. Unless she’s really evolved, I doubt she’ll take it well.

I know. Ugh.

*sigh* What an assumption! They’ve worked together for over a year. They likely know each other pretty well, just as she knows Daniel Craig well. The idea that two people can’t make eye contact on a red carpet or else they must be fucking is pretty insane.
It’s funny to me the idea that people on Celebitchy would know more about their relationship than Cean Chaffin, who produced the movie & was on set every day.

Oh I “get” that she has to keep the hairstyle for movie promotions but it doesn’t change the fact she still looks awful.

The only pretty thing about her are her eyes.

This dress is such a throwback to the 1950′s. Not in a good way.

Fincher has a face like a drunken bird of prey and is chunky, just a few pounds away from having man-boobs. Now, I don’t judge people by their weight, but if this was a female director with more than a few extra pounds, she would be talked about like a dawg, (and probably right here on this site).

Cute in the dress. Alien ears.

Her makeup is improving and I find myself liking this dress. I still hate her hairstyle, it’s a trainwreck.
I hate admitting this but my gut feeling is that there is something inappropriate with her and Fincher. Really hope I’m wrong.

In that second picture he’s probably thinking about all the nasty things he’ll do to her. Looks like it to me

For all the people who don’t like her hair. It’s her “lisbeth hair”. There obviously isn’t much she can do with it. Even if she didnt have another Dragon tattoo movie to shoot, her hair would still be growing out, and therefore she would still have bangs.

Shave her head or wear a fucking wig or a big 10-gallon hat. Any of those ridiculous options would still be better than this shit.

The red really suits her. If you remember all the silly color matching from the 1980′s, she’s a “Winter”. The dress is perhaps a bit too girly, but again-that red is gorgeous.

Ok. I’ve changed my mind about Rooney. I saw The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo today, and I thought she owned it. I was prepared to hate her as much as I loved Noomi Rapace in the role, but I couldn’t. I thought she did a great job. Even if she’s a douche in real life, I think I have a soft spot for her now.

She was amazing in the movie, but talk about bangs trauma on the red carpet. Girl get some hair extensions!

I think she looks nice and edgy. You should accept that there are people who are different, not everyone should wear extensions, great lashes, spray on tan etc. She has this special, more intelectual look. She is certainly not Barbie – baby-pinkish blond.

its difficult to make a Valentino dree look anything but spectacular
but Rooney Mara did it
I just hope this isnt the new
‘standard” of beauty
Im so tired of her “middle aged white man fantasy” thing
