Though I'd prefer it if she'd spread them out a little more, I have no objection to Keira Knightley

It's not a period piece, a subject commonly joked about when Knightley is involved, and from reading the write-up at Variety, you get the impression it might be slightly futuristic. The film is reportedly about "a trio who ...

Keira Knightley's domestic abuse ad banned - point missed completely

The new ad campaign against domestic violence, featuring Keira Knightley has been banned from British TV. Why? Apparently the ad is too violent.

The ad will only air on TV if the scenes with Knightley being beaten are removed. Will no one think of the children?! ...

... . Unfortunately it's a very small video, but the opening is strong, the titles are good and the music is stonking. After that there's a fair amount of rude words being blanked out, but the fast cuts back and forth between characters and their dialogues is rather well done. Cut from the school outing at the funeral to the after school party and there's the superb 300 (Filmstalker review) pit moment that made me laugh, the Gears of War moment and the Keira Knightley was all rather amusing.

Keira Performing Molière on the London Stage

I always give Keira Knightley credit for doing more than she has to and taking the kind of risks that a woman who looks that good really doesn't need to take.
