Thanks Jackie for letting us know.

The current issue of Starlog magazine features Stardust movie on its cover. Starlog is a magazine dedicated to fantasy and Sci-Fi movies.

Inside this issue, you can found an extensive report about Stardust with several articles such as: The Art Of Charles Vess, He illustrates lands of imagination; Making Stardust, Matthew Vaughn directs the stellar film and This Hero Reluctant: Charlie Cox searches for a falling star.

There's also a small part of the interview with Matthew Vaughn on the website,with a nice comment on Michelle:

“Michelle was my number-one choice for Lamia, because I wanted someone who is the personification of beauty, and she is. That adds to the impact of Lamia falling apart and then becoming young and beautiful again. Michelle is such a talented actress, and she hasn’t been seen in a while."

Finally Stardust wasn't good enough this 1st weekend. The movie made only $9 million at the box office.

According Yahoo! Movies site, Paramount's "Stardust," a well-reviewed adult fairy tale starring Michelle Pfeiffer, didn't fare as well. It was placed the fourth place behind "The Simpsons Movie," but not as much as might be expected for a film with a cast that included Robert DeNiro, Peter O'Toole and Claire Danes.

Now Paramount's head of worldwide marketing and distribution, Rob Moore, says: "The movie's theme made it difficult to market in a 30-second TV spot. When you make an original movie, it's always very challenging to be able to communicate to your audience what the genre is. These movies tend to be driven by word of mouth and home entertainment."

Moore said it is expected to do better in international markets. The movie, which cost about $70 million to make, will be rolled out in Europe and other markets in October.

Well, and since here, such I reported yesterday, many of us --pfans who follow the career of Michelle and are interested on seeing the success of Pfeiffer-- think that Paramount has been just spinning, they know they screwed up. The trailer and tv spots completely misrepresent the film, and they hardly did any marketing for the movie.

So now we have to wait that word of mouth works.

The Box-Office forescat for Stardust doesn't look like too good. According to one of our pfans and collaborators, Jaws, many web sites said that the movie would make $11 millions in its first weekend, and $60 millions as total. Also Juanita, other of our collaborators, reported on the Pforum, it made only $3 million on Friday, so it look slike only $ 9 million opening weekend.

The film has entered at the #4 place on the Box-Office Chart, even below The Simpson Movie (#3) and The Bourne Ultimatum (#2).

Many Pfans has blamed Paramount for the bad marketing campaign with the movie during these last weeks. So we have to wait that people like the movie and they count the experience to others... It can prove the success of Hairspray which has gone up places since the release.

And in spite of it, on the other hand we have already found the very first impressions of people who has seen Stardust, they have said really rave reviews on Michelle Pfeiffer in the movie:

[...] But the movie belongs to Michelle Pfeiffer. In a welcome return to fairyland, Pfeiffer reminds us that she is still one of the big screen’s most enchanting beauties. She hasn’t lost the spark that made her such a luminous presence in Ladyhawke twenty-two years ago. It’s too bad that her best moments are quickly shoved aside so she can become a canvas for makeup artists. (When one spell begins to lose its, um, “holding power,” her breasts suddenly sag.) Pfeiffer’s bold, self-effacing performance makes us wish for a role that takes full advantage of her talents, and her beauty, soon. [...]
From: The Looking Closer Journal

[...] Because the characters are all driven by a specific need, they drive the story. Michelle Pfeiffer, who had lots of fun hamming it up in "Hairspray," has even more of a blast in "Stardust," as the leader of a coven of three wicked sisters. A temporary spell enables her to regain her youthful looks, but in order to make her youth a more permanent feature, she needs to kill the star and cut out its heart, which she's looking forward to. As a young woman, Pfeiffer always had a down-to-earth, put-upon grumpiness, but that quality was never really exploited. Now in her late 40s, she may be coming into her queen years in a particularly entertaining way. She seems to genuinely relish being imperious and appalling. [...]

And today LATimes.com also publish an interesting interview with Michelle Pfeiffer during the promotion of Stardust by Susan King, titled "Michelle Pfeiffer: Remember her?". The actress talks about no having intention of spending nearly five years away from the silver screen: "You know, it just happened."

She talks about the time during her hiatus: "I may very well have been reading good scripts and I wasn't inclined to say 'yes.' Maybe I needed a break. I think how long I have been working. . . . I have been working since I was 14. I have really never taken a break. I think maybe my psyche was just telling me not to work for a while."

"People have been asking me what I have been doing the past few years. I have hardly come up for a breath," she reports. "It's all the mundane stuff. I try to be everywhere all the time. Of course, we know that's impossible, but I am going to make it work . . . damn it!"

And also about her love for working: "I can't ever imagine retiring. I don't get why somebody would want to look forward to retirement. What are you going to do?"

About Stardust, she tells how she met the director in the first time and how he convinced to accept the part --that chat which Mattew Vaughn has told on several interviews. now Michelle's version-- : "He literally had the entire movie in a big binder. He had already begun to storyboard, so I could really get a strong idea of his vision of the film and also the direction he wanted to take his character"

OrlandoSentinel.com published yesterday a wonderful interview by Roger Moore --Sentinel Movie Critic-- in Beverly Hills with Michelle Pfeiffer , titled "Call it whatever, but Michelle Pfeiffer is back" for the promotion of Stardust, here some quotes of the actress:

About her re-emergence: "I thought I'd be hearing that a lot more these past few weeks. But nobody's saying 'comeback.' It surprises me that I haven't been hearing that, because I would think that, too, about me."

"I was reading things, not really finding anything that made me want to go back to work. That's kind of my fall-back position, now: 'No.' I got kind of busy with life. Years went by, and I had to say to myself, 'I'd better go back and see if I even want to do this anymore. It wasn't like I was afraid. But I knew I was rusty. And I found out how rusty. It wasn't like getting back on a bike, I tell you."

About her doubts when she accepted the part in Stardust: "I thought, right from the start, 'Oh my God, how am I going to do this?' And I just pulled myself together and said, 'You have to. You made a commitment. You can't bail on these people.'"

And about her future at movies: "I realized, working again, that I like it and that I need it. It makes me a better mom, I hope. I finally have an idea about how to balance home and work. So maybe by this winter, after we've gotten completely reacquainted....."

Hey!! Finally our muse got her --wished by all us-- Star at Hollywood Walk Of Fame!! I have to recognize I feel so excited and touched! She really should have gotten one a long time ago!

It has been this morning at 11:30 a.m. at 6801 Hollywood Blvd in front of the Hollywood and Highland complex. Paul Rudd (her partner in the upcoming in USA I Could Never Be Your Woman) and Jeff Bridges (her partner in The Fabulous Baker Boys) have attended the event. Also her husband, the producer David E Kelley and her children Claudia Rose and John Henry have accompanied Michelle.

This event is full of meant for all us, pfans from around the word. This recognition for our Michelle have been long time waited.

On the other hand, one of us, Michael --pfan and pfriend of this site-- who attended the event, has done a wonderful chronicle of it. You can read his beautiful words at the Pforum. Here I've taken out a little part full of meant for me:

"[...] When Paul Rudd mentioned "I could never be your woman" there was a lot of applause behind me and both Paul and Michelle looked in the direction of the crowd and asked have you seen the movie and then Paul added or are you from Spain [...]"

After we reported this morning about the talk-shows which Michelle Pfeiffer will attend this week, I've received more news about it. Lauren Tyler, pfriend and pfan of PfeifferTheFace, has let me know that the suppose only day free of interviews, Thursday 9th, also will be leaded by our Michelle, it will be at The Early Show on CBS.

So now week can say that it will be the great week of promotion of Michelle, yes... the great return!!

Thanks a lot Lauren Tyler for the info!

Hairspray movie has been placed on the #5 place (the past week it was the #4). Over the movie have been placed two new releases of this week, The Bourne Ultimatum (#1) and Underdog (#3); on the #2 the release of the past week, The Simpsons Movie; and place on #4, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry released the same week od Hairspray.

We can think that the musical is being a success. According BoxOfficeMojo, Hairspray had the smallest dip and it was still down 41 percent. It scored an estimated $9.3 million for $79 million in 17 days and could become one of the ten most attended musicals of the past 30 years.

On the other hand, the movie was on the #2 place during the past week (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday). So I guess the drop on the BoxOffice chart will be slow!. Besides, this weekend --I guess-- thanks the Stardust release, we'll have two movies played by Michelle on the Top Ten! I hope!

Extratv publish an very interesting and honest interview with Michelle Pfeiffer during the promotion of Stardust:

Click the image to watch the video.

The article titled: "Michelle Pfeiffer: 'Airbrush Disaster Left Me in Tears'", tells that Michelle talks about age in Hollywood: "You know, I think as you get older, the more obsessed you become" she said, "The unrealistic standards of beauty, whether they’re body types, the way women look, the airbrushed image we see on magazines, mine included"

That’s right – even the flawless actress says she’s airbrushed, and despite the appearance of perfection, she feels just as insecure about her looks as many women do.

“Did I say, ‘Don’t airbrush that wrinkle out?’ Are you kidding me? You think I’m nuts, but you know, I’m the first to admit what it is!” she revealed. Michelle said airbrushing isn’t everything most folks think it is. It’s meant to cover imperfections, but oftentimes it can bring up old insecurities.

She told “Extra” that years ago, one botched airbrush cover left her in tears. “They lopped off my chin. I knew I had some acne; they were going to fix that. But they did all kinds of things to my face, and I was really upset about it,” she admitted.

I guess the image which Michelle talks about is the cover of Esquire magazine (December 1990), which involved an scandal because behind the photo's caption which read, "What Michelle Pfeiffer Needs...Is Absolutely Nothing.", Haper's published the invoice from Jane Scott Associates, Inc. charged Esquire for the following work, described in a purchase order obtained and reprinted by Adbusters "Clean up complexion, soften eye lines, soften smile line, add color to lips, trim chin, remove neck lines, soften line under ear lobe ... remove stray hair ... adjust color and add hair on top of head ... add dress on side to create better line ... "

Now Variety also publishes its review about Stardust, according John Anderson. You can read the full review in Variety website.

"[...] The best thing in the film, Pfeiffer shows great comedic timing, and her metamorphoses -- as Lamia careens from flourishing beauty to horrible crone -- show considerable courage, as the actress manages to be funny regardless of what state of decrepitude she's in. It's not a very admirable character, after all: Lamia turns people into goats and goats into people, and she and her sisters foretell the future by hacking up animals and reading their entrails. They're not the most in-demand dinner guests.

Pic saves itself through a lot of incidental humor. Pfeiffer delivers elaborate, well-timed eye-rolls when things like eternal youth don't go her way. [...]"
