Vanity Fair Italy Interview

Kate Winslet
I’m not a model

Ten years ago she reached the global success with DiCaprio (“Thank goodness we didn’t have any love affair”), the press obsession for her weight. Today Kate Winslet is happy “when my daughter squeezes my fat”.

He’s in the corridor of the Ritz Hotel in Paris, in front of the entrance of a suite. For a moment he reminds me of Will Smith, but he’s Kate Winslet bodyguard, the woman that we all remember as the redhead Rose in Titanic (one of her 5 Oscar nominations), Clementine who drove Jim Carrey crazy in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Tula, Gandolfini’s lover in Romance & Cigarettes.

Now Kate is also the new Trèsor testimonial.
“How is she?” I ask to the bodyguard, while waiting for her to arrive. “Super” he answers with a worming smile.

Tarantino has eyes for Winslet

Kate next up for Tarantino flick?

He’s renowned for his violent films but when it comes to casting, Quentin Tarantino would prefer an English rose to a famous tough guy, it seems.

The Death Proof director told Metro he would love to work with Kate Winslet but has no plans to involve Vinnie Jones in his next flick.

He also plans to show a collection of his favourite films that have inspired his work, this coming weekend on Sky Movies Indie.

Remembering Robert Garlock, Beloved Press Agent to Uma, Hugh, Clive

It’s with my deepest sympathy and my most sincere condolences that I inform you of the death of Robert Garlock, Kate’s beloved publicist. He’ll always be remembered for the great work that he’s done for his clients and also for being a great person. KWF would like to send comfort and peace to everyone who knew him.

Widely loved publicist Robert Garlock died Sunday, Sept. 2, at St. Vincent’s Hospital from complications of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. He was 41. Mr. Garlock, whose roster of celebrity clients included actors Hilary Swank, Clive Owen, Hugh Grant and Kate Winslet, had been at PMK/HBH for 14 years, before becoming a partner at the P.R. firm 42 West. Mr. Garlock grew up in Canal Fulton, Ohio, then moved to New York to attend N.Y.U.’s Tisch School of Arts. He never left.

John Turturro To Self-Distribute Romance & Cigarettes

Actor-director John Turturro will distribute his movie Romance & Cigarettes with his own money, after a studio takeover left it on the scrap-head.

The musical was made in 2004 with an ensemble cast including James Gandolfini, Kate Winslet, Susan Sarandon, Steve Buscemi and Christopher Walken.

Its future was thrown into jeopardy before it could be released when MGM was bought by a consortium headed by Sony in 2005. It was released in the U.K. in 2006, but has been left in limbo in the U.S. as the filmmakers attempt to unravel a legal mess so the film can be seen by the American public.

Sony Pictures claims it has video rights for the movie and MGM has theatrical rights — but a source claims Turturro has secured the film’s release so it can go on show at New York’s Film Forum from 7 September (07), at his own expense.
