The two-time Oscar winner came away pleased with her latest directorial effort, which tested her loyalty to costar and friend Mel Gibson.

Some things I just didn't want to know about......
Popcorn ready...let the games begin
Funny headline, but the buzz on this is that it’s a great flick. I really admire Foster for standing by her friend Mel Gibson when the publicity got terrible for him.
I’m sure that many of the gents here on FR are also “pro-beaver”...
I agree.
I'm sure she is.
I was thinking, was this the best headline the author could come up with? And, where was the editor?
I do not plan to see Jodie Foster’s Beaver.
She must get up late, cause the early bird gets the worm....
I thought hers looked okay in the movie ‘Nell’.
Has she changed it in some way?
****Jodie Foster is bullish on ‘The Beaver’****
She should be, as she has been selling it since she was quite young.
“Jodie Foster is bullish on ‘The Beaver’”
Somewhere June Cleaver is in the afterlife saying, “Darn, ripped off again”.
I predict this thread is going down.
I won't either.
I'm just thankful this wasn't about Rosie. I just got a new keyboard.
I agree.
Anything to sell a paper.
Perhaps John Updike co-wrote it.
It doesn’t surprise me a bit that Jodie Foster loves a Li’l Beaver.

The movie might be good. Its just too bad what Mel did to his life. There aren’t too many people like Foster that would stand up for someone like Mel or give him a second chance.
No she is not!
She is usually face deep in it!
Jodie’s got beaver fever.
I always thought that she was hard to impress.
I am pro beaver too!
Pro hardwood floor!

"The Always Enjoyable Giant Inflatable Beaver."
Cool. Did you make that?
And its always the box lunch at the Y.
If you're gonna link to the story, you really should post its headline. :=)
Jodie Foster's Beaver Pushed Back
Hey, John Hinkley, you do know that Taxi Driver was just a movie. Not real.
Mel Gibson playing with Jodie Foster’s beaver!

This thread will prove troubling.
Thankfully, this is not Friday afternoon.
"Ward, weren't you were a little rough on the Beaver last night?"
I never saw the movie, but the comment is based on the fact that HollyWeird does sell movie tickets largely on sex. That is what the reference was about.
I only vaguely remember something about this particular actress being a student in good standing at an Ivy league college. Or, perhaps it was another one. In any case, just an image on a screen as far as I can see.
The NYC branch of my family has a black sheep in the past - a script writer in Hollywood. It was a long time ago, but not something we talked about much. “Theatre people” and all that, you know.
This past year she and her daughter ( or son ? ) were on the field for a half time show during a bowl game . They surprised her by bringing out her husband who is serving in Aphganistan . She seemed very happy to see him .
Thank goodness they didn’t cast Helen Thomas!
Cool. How long does it take to do that stuff or do you have some sort of program that does it?
How many people would look as bad as, or worse than, Mel if their private phone conversations were sold to internet gossip sites, and every alleged detail discussed on the "evening news?"
Red Snapper, I believe.
I thought she came out, and just broke up with her girl friend.
LOL! You beat me to that post!
I don’t know , but this kid was about 8-10 years old and was very happy to see Dad .
