Jennifer Connelly is fine

Or was until she joined the trend of emaciated actresses and lost the incredible curves she sported in films such as "the Rocketeer," "the Hot Spot" and "Career Opportunities."

Connelly in "the Rocketeer":

Connelly last year:

Damn. Someone hand that girl a sandwich.

True dat. Why is is that most every successful actress in Hollywood turns emaciated and spindly in no time?

Oh, man. Connelly was my favorite thing about "The Rocketeer" (I'm an utter sucker for brunettes). What is it with these actresses? Man, I hope that someone will bring back curves to Hollyweird...

Or riding the rocking horse ride in "Career Opportunities"? Debra Winger coulda used her rack in "Urban Cowboy."

Connelly may have decided to start looking like a heroin addict for Requiem for a Dream where she played, well, a heroin addict. Frankly, I can't stop thinking of her as the little girl in Labrynth which makes a certain scene in Requiem all the more disturbing...

Wow, yu're rite, if that's a good photo of her she definitely ruined her looks. She's not the only one either, can't figure it out. Don't they have mirrors in Hollywood?

I agree. Liked her looks much better BEFORE the breast reduction and anorexia.

She was also inhumanly beautiful in "Dark City", a great, underrated sci-fi film. Roger Ebert is on the wrong drugs more often than not these days, but his review of Dark City nails it.

Agree. She was so, uh, "juicy" in The Rocketeer. No doubt that now she's an anorexia nervosa or bullimia case. A shame...

When I was much, MUCH younger, I thought that she was the cutest thing I had ever seen in Labarynth, with Muppets and David Bowie.

BTW, I saw a special deal at Target: Two fantasy/muppent movies in one package: The Dark Crystal and Labarynth! What a great combination!

One of my very favorite movies, which happened to also star Connley and Nolte, is "Mulholland Falls", a murder mystery that I can highly recommend.
