...makeup for 212 hours. We don't really look like that.' I mean, I'm living proof that we don't really look like that." That last statement, while it looks sweet on paper, and was said earnestly, would actually offer scant comfort to any woman. In the flesh, Winslet's just your regular-looking movie star. (Except for her feet, which are huge--size 11--and about which she is obsessed.) "I've had two kids, and every woman out there knows that when you've had a child your body just doesn't go back to normal...
...director, Antonio Banderas. From then on, "my main motivation to become an actress was to work with Pedro," Cruz says. "I was kind of obsessed about it." In 1997, at 22, she got her wish, playing a prostitute loudly giving birth on a Madrid city bus in Live Flesh.

In place of the familiar panoramas of flesh-ripping Godzillas, HORNER DESCRIBES THE MOST COMMON DINOSAURS AS 'THE COWS OF THE MESOZOIC.' He has found the remnants of one dinosaur herd?an estimated 10,000 waddling, plant-eating duckbills. Even Tyrannosaurus rex seems less terrible in his revisionist view. Horner believes it followed herds of triceratops, scavenging carcasses...
