  • Emma Stone Is Dating Spider-Man Co-Star Andrew Garfield
    Emma Stone Is Dating Spider- Man Co-Star Andrew Garfield It looks like these co-workers have no problem dating!The Amazing Spider-Man movie brought together an “amazing” spark between co-stars Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield, according to UsMagazine.com. “They got close during filming and have been hooking up,” said an anonymous source. However, the two seem to want to keep their relationship private. It turns out that Garfield’s recent three-year relationship with actress Shannon Woodward is still a fresh wound. Why not avoid drama if at all possible? What are the benefits of keeping your new relationship from your ex? Cupid’s Advice: Though the “oo’s” and “aww’s” can be flattering when you and your partner happily expose your relationship to the public, timing is key. Cupid has some thoughts on why keeping your relationship from your ex may be the best thing for now: 1. Army material: Your ex may be ready for a fight. That is, he or she might not be afraid to lash out at your newest love interest. Keep that from happening at all costs. 2. Secrets: We all have secrets, even though sometimes we’d like to forget some of them. Your ex-partner might be feeling bitter and vengeful after your breakup. To keep him or her from being tempted to let loose all of your secrets to your new flame, keep the news of the relationship to yourself for a while. 3. Trust: Building trust is easier for your partner if no worrying is necessary.

  • Working Class
    >>brief encounters Indie poster boy Steve Buscemi on filmmaking, celebrity culture, and putting out fires By Harlan Jacobson There are endless things to say about Buscemi, closing in on 50 later this year— from his early days as a stand-up come- dian in the East Village in the Eighties to his work both in front of and behind the camera on The Sopranos to his still unre- alized dream project, an adaptation of William Burroughs’s Queer—and it’s a lit- tle odd interviewing him about Interview. In the real world, Buscemi is hard to reach, doesn’t do much publicity, wouldn’t meet in person—in short, the whole process of setting up the interview took on many of the trappings of how art and media have been derailed by celebrity culture, which of course is at the heart of Interview. Get him on the phone, or see him at Sundance responding to audience questions, how- ever, and he’s a straight shooter, earnest and open. The face of the new indepen- dent and quasi-independent American cinema for nearly 20 years, he remembers where he came from when the gates finally swing open. Before his murder Van Gogh was planning to remake Interview in English.Why did you step in? I didn’t know his work at all. Bruce Weiss, the producer, called me about the project, explaining that Theo wanted to remake Working Class Act three of his own films in the States, and that they were trying to honor that using steve buscemi’s career is an american spin-off of the American directors.
