I’ve liked Natalie Portman ever since her young role in The Professional (thank you Tran and Rod for being the first people to introduce me to that flick). Then she became a religious Icon to me snagging a role in the new Star Wars films… but it wasn’t until I saw Anywhere But Here and Where the Heart Is that I became a major fan of hers as an actress. This woman can act. Still so young, and yet she’s been handed, and rocked in, some really diverse roles. It looks like her diversity is now being stretched even more with her role in the film Closer. The IMDB describes closer like this:
An intriguing story of passion, drama, love, and abandonment involving two couples, which only gets more complicated when the man from the first couple gets acquainted with the woman from the second coupling.
The good folks over at Cinema Eye have posted a couple of rather steamy pictures of Portman in the film (the picture on the left is just a small teaser to get you over there to see the full versions yourself). If you’d like to check out the trailer you can go here. Ummm…. yeah. I’ll see it.
