This Week In Movies by Pete Hammond

In typical Hollywood fashion studios are using the months of March and April to unleash a slew of adult-oriented thrillers, movies that aren’t sequels, prequels, comic books or other staples of the industry’s favored summertime fare. That’s why now we are getting Unknown, The Adjustment Bureau, The Lincoln Lawyer , Limitless and the upcoming Source Code all bunched together within a few weeks and all aimed at the same audience. Late winter/Spring is prime time for this sort of film but since the slow-to-show-up older audience (who might be more intrigued by this kind of thing than your typical fanboy) takes their time in getting out to the movies, I thought it was unusual that this week we had two of these similar appeal films , Limitless and Lincoln Lawyer going head to head. Their stars , Lawyer’s Matthew McConaughey and Limitless’ Bradley Cooper are also somewhat interchangeable although Cooper , thanks to The Hangover, has more heat right now. Still both these movies might do better if they had the week to themselves. And both managed to get fairly high marks from critics with Lawyer scoring an outstanding 81`% fresh at Rotten Tomatoes and Limitless not far behind with 64%. Nevertheless Limitless, about a super pill that makes you smart, managed to slay the competition taking in an estimated $19 million for a clear number one and a nice audience satisfaction rating of B+ from Cinemascore. Perhaps the presence of co-star Robert DeNiro also helped goose that better-than-expected number even IF he wasn’t prominent on the ads........

Matthew McConaughey Welcomes Baby Girl


Matthew McConaughey welcomes the new year with a new addition to the family. McConaughey's girlfriend, Camila Alves, gave birth to a daughter, Vida. This is the couple's second child.

Vida was born on January 3 at 12:13am. She was 7 lbs. 7 oz. Her full name is Vida Alves McConaughey, according to Matthew's official website.

McConaughey continued to write on his website, "Vida is Portuguese for 'life' and that's what God gave us this morning ... Camila's recovering wonderfully and we are both truly honored to welcome this little lady into our family ... Thanks for all of your well wishes and prayers along the way, another blessed day, we give thanks."

Where In The World Is.. Matthew McConaughey?


Fresh from a worldwide road trip, the new dad, 39, took to his MySpace Celebrity blog Saturday to share his recent "just keep livin'" moments and reveals how he spent his Nov. 4 birthday. He's been a pretty busy guy lately! What a cute family portrait, courtesy of his MySpace, though!

"I spent my 39th birthday on the southern rim of the Grand Canyon," he blogs of his special day with girlfriend Camila Alves and son Levi, 5 months. "[I] almost got 'butted' off the edge by a ram and caught some shooting stars." Mother Nature created something that looks so fake, it's real. I was once again reminded of how good looking this country is."


He also went to Brazil with Alves and blogged about that adventure. "I went to Brazil for the first time to visit my lady's family and tour the land a bit," McConaughey blogs. "Found a very proud and happy culture there. We ate, we drank, we danced, and they tolerated my stumbling through the Portuguese language....I will return, beautiful country, beautiful and classy people...thanks Brazil...cool."

Jennifer Lopez, Mark Anthony, Matthew McConauhey check out pyjama-inspired looks at D&G's Milan show



Italian fashion duo Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana presented a 'come to bed'-based collection this week in Milan.

With VIP guests including Jennifer Lopez and Mark Anthony in the audience for the D&G show, the designers unveiled their new line for spring entitled "Pyjama Baroque".

Traditional men's pyjamas are the inspiration for the designs, which encompassed silk pyjama jackets in red and navy polka-dots styled with ostrich feather and crystal bead skirts.

The pyjama top was even presented as the ideal choice for an evening out. In a silvery hue it lent its lines to the top half of a ballgown - teamed with a metallic tulle crinoline embellished with dozens of silk roses, peonies and camellias.

The alternative tack received an enthusiastic reception from front row guests, who also included Dita Von Teese and new parents Matthew McConaughey and his Brazilian model partner Camilla Alves. All moved onto designer Domenico's golden age-themed 50th birthday party.

At Versace the approach for next season was futuristic, with boxy, spaceman-inspired jackets, the silhouettes of which were textured with gleaming, gold and silver crocodile-style detailing. Another collection highlight was a series of mini-dresses in candy pink, fluorescent yellow and monochrome.

Matthew McConaughey's dad died during sex, mom says



Dina Lohan could learn a thing or two about well-placed sound bites from Matthew McConaughey's mom.

McConaughey's father died having sex with his mom, Mama McConaughey says in her new book, "I Amaze Myself!"

“On Monday mornings, he and I often said goodbye by making love,” Kay McConaughey tells Us Weekly. “But one day, all of a sudden, it just happened. I knew that something was wrong, because I didn’t hear anything from him. Just nothing," she says. "But it was just the best way to go!”

When her husband couldn’t be revived, she made sure he was taken from the house in the nude.

“I was just so proud to show off my big old Jim McConaughey — and his gift,” she says.

Matthew McConaughey was a happy accident, she reveals. It was just after she’d married Matthew’s dad for the third time.

“I was deciding, ‘Do I want to have another baby? Do I want to have an affair? Or go back to school?’” she says. “That’s when Matthew was conceived. We had tried for 16 years and no baby. So Matthew was a big surprise!”

Matthew McConaughey refuses to hire nanny for son Levi



Matthew McConaughey is reportedly refusing to hire a nanny for new son Levi.

The 'Fool's Gold' actor - who welcomed his first child with fiance Camila Alves into the world last month - is said to be determined to raise his son without any outside help, much to the distress of Brazilian model Camila.

A source said: "If Matt could breastfeed the baby himself, he would. The house is getting messier and neither Matt or Camila are getting much sleep. Camila wants to hire someone but Matthew strongly objects - he thinks at least for the first few months he and Camila should be the only ones caring for Levi."

Matthew recently revealed he hopes Levi grows up to be less "selfish" than himself.

He said: "Of all the aspects of my character my kid could inherit, I hope it's not my tendency to be selfish. I can be pretty selfish. That wouldn't be a good part of my personality to have."

Matthew McConaughey: Having a Baby Is “Bloody and Wild”



Matthew McConaughey and his longtime girlfriend Camila Alves revealed the first pictures of their son Levi Alves, born on July 7.

The 38-year-old actor told OK! magazine he learned something new from the experience: “This is where I learned—and no one tells you this—but having a baby is a bloody, pukey, sweaty, primeval thing! And I mean that as a beautiful thing. It is wild.”

But McConaughey wasn’t too surprised to find out it was a boy. “I said, ‘Come here, little man.’ I saw the pecker and screamed that we’d been right all along about him being a boy. Then I brought him over to her [Camila],” Matthew told the magazine.

The Brazilian model, 25, had her man right by her side, and not in the cliche way.

The Dazed and Confused actor admitted, “Contractions started kicking in. I sat there with her, right between her legs. We got tribal on it, we danced to it! I was DJ-ing this Brazilian music.”

Levi was born at Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center and weighed a healthy 7 lbs., 4 oz., and he told the magazine he kept a detailed diary of his and Alves’ hospital experience.

“I have it all chronicled,” he explained. “Becoming a dad is something I’ve dreamed of doing since I was 10. Becoming a father felt very, very natural. We were jamming! She was sweating. No painkiller, let’s go. She just clicked into that gear that only a woman has at a time like this. We’d been up for 40-something hours, and we went from dead tired to a really steadfast, ‘Let’s handle this… let’s stay in the rhythm. Don’t let the contraction be more than you.’”

Matthew added, “I’ve pulled out some baby pictures of myself, and the resemblance is amazing. This kid has a lot to learn from us. I want him to come out being a little wiser, a little cooler and a little happier than we are.”

Welcome Baby Levi!

The newborn son of Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves graces the cover of Ok! Magazine. What a cutie! Matthew had quite a lot to share with the magazine about the birth of his son, his thoughts on the delivery:

“We found a great rhythm. Contractions started kicking in. I sat there with her, right between her legs. We got tribal on it, we danced to it! I was DJ-ing this Brazilian music.”

... Now that's just awkward.

“Becoming a dad is something I’ve dreamed of doing since I was 10. Becoming a father felt very, very natural. We were jamming! She was sweating. No painkiller, let’s go. She just clicked into that gear that only a woman has at a time like this. We’d been up for 40-something hours, and we went from dead tired to a really steadfast, ‘Let’s handle this… let’s stay in the rhythm. Don’t let the contraction be more than you," Matthew also said. Well, the baby is a doll so we're happy it all worked out!

Matthew McConaughey Drunk in Nicaragua


This guy isn't the charming southern gentleman we all remember from movies like How To Loose A Guy in 10 Days and Fool's Gold, is it? Actor Matthew McConaughey let loose at a bar in San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua.

His pregnant fiancee, Camila Alves, was not in Nicaragua at the time. McConaughey must have taken advantage of the situation because he reportedly arrived to the bar already drunk and continued drinking the night away. Sources from Star Magazine claimed that he was also hitting on many women, “throwing his arms around them and trying to kiss them, and trying to dirty-dance with a few out on the floor.” He continued to stumble around the bar and slur his words as the night went on. Not classy, Mr. McConaughey.

The New York Daily News received an e-mail wherein Matthew denied that he was flirting with women at the bar but fessed up to the rest of his boozing behavior. He wrote, “Drunk? Absolutely. Nicaragua is a beautiful place, epic waves, the best surfing I have ever been on. And, yes, I'm STILL looking for my left flip-flop. So if anyone finds it floating around down there (it has 6:22 stitched into the side), please send it my way. There is a reward.”

Matthew McConaughey makes deal for baby pics


Matthew McConaughey and his fiancée Camila Alves are all set for the baby, and they reportedly even hired "brand agent" Todd Shemarya to help them sell their baby pics.

Shemarya has brokered deals for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, among other celebrities.

So far the couple has fielded deals from three different publications, each offering over a million dollars, according to website TMZ.

McConaughey, 38, has also reportedly expressed a desire to be a "stay at home dad."

"Matt joked if he wasn't careful he will wake up bald and old and having missed out on years of his kid's life that he couldn't get back," a friend of the couple said. "He's intent on being there for his kid the way his parents were for him."

In other McConaughey news, deodorant company AXE sent the actor, who "never uses deodorant," a year's supply of pocket-sized body spray.

"We know that you already have a stunning girl in Camila Alves. But in a survey we recently conducted, nearly nine out of 10 girls (89 per cent) told us that they would turn down a guy because he smelled bad - no matter how in-shape or successful he is," a letter from the company said.

"We read that you 'never use deodorant' and we sure want you to keep Camila around, so we've enclosed a one year supply of the new AXE Bullet, the first pocket-sized deodorant body spray for guys," it said. "We know that you're always on-the-go and like to travel light, so this handy little gadget should fit perfectly into your active lifestyle!"
