I just find it a shallow remark to make about an actress in regards to a movie; if she didn't perform to standard, that's one thing, but a weight remark is just catty.

There is one highlight in DUPLICITY that gives the movie a brief bit of heat:
Carrie Preston as a travel agent who gets screwed, in more ways than one, by Clive Owens. It's a brilliant piece of acting that , for a moment, elevates the film into something worthwhile.

By old I meant Julia looked tired and lacked her typical vivaciousness.

As far as her weight goes, she seemed out of shape and that probably goes along with having just had a baby. I know Julia's pilates coach very well, a tiny diesel dyke, and Julia is always training with her. Being pregnant and having a baby put a stop to that for awhile. So, in billy's defense, Julia did seem kind of flaccid and less trim than usual in DUPLICITY.

I can't even believe I'm talking about this. I need to get laid.

I'm sure if Clive Owens had a beer gut and a double chin in the movie, the broads here in the forum would make mention of it.

I don't give a shit about what goes on in an actor's personal life. If she/he is supposed to be a sexy and glamorous on screen, that's what I want to see. That's what Julia gets paid the big bucks for. There's a scene in DUPLICITY where Julia's body is shot in profile and her belly is distended. It was distracting. I figured it was because she was either pregnant or recently had been. The character in the movie isn't a breeder, so I was taken out of the movie for a moment and found myself thinking about Julia the person. Not good. Who wants to see Cary Grant with skid marks on his shorts?
