An Eye for a Fry
What's The Eye, you ask? It's like The Grudge and The Ring, of course. Jessica Alba stars as a blind violinist who gets cornea surgery, starts to see weird stuff and consults a superhot neuropsychologist (Alessanadro Nivola). It's a remake of the superscary Japanese film Gian Jui.

The stars, here we go. Nivola wooed the pants off Frances McDormand in Laurel Canyon, wooed no one in Jurassic Park III and played in Junebug, which wooed indie ones. He's married to Emily Mortimer, who is in two of my favorite movies ever—Match Point and Lovely and Amazing. They met on the set of Kenneth Branagh's Love's Labour's Lost. He's a Yale grad. He's married. He's, like, settled.
Alba is a hot property. She's famous enough where I don't need to tell you. Anyway, Nivola and Alba are both total hotties. But only one of these genetically blessed ones is fighting to be seen as more than a lust bunny. This is what Nivola had to say about his costar:

"This is a perfect movie for Jessica. She has ambitions to be taken really seriously as an actor and, until now, hasn't had the opportunity to do a role that enables her to kind of play a real character in ways that didn't involve action. She's very unadorned. She doesn't have a lot of makeup. She's able to talk and behave like a real person...I feel like it's going to be important for her, in that way."
Um, Alessandro, I don't really know how to say this, but you're a hot piece of ass, too. If you can get audiences to believe that you have crinkly eyes and a great head of hair and a degree in neuropsychology, consider yourself golden. Oh, wait. I forgot. We objectify women, not men. My bad.
Want to know what Jessica had to say about The Eye? Well, come back Wednesday, y'all.
