Timothee Chalamet

TIMOTHEE CHALAMET HAS GOT WHAT GIRLS WANT

Is this is how the #MeToo movement has affected a new generation of actors? Gradually it’s become hip to identify with non-binary- not too masculine and not too feminine. Heterosexual Timothee Chalamet personifies the less masculine demeanor that girls his age love. He played a gay teen in Call Me by Your Name and it made him a star. (Before #MeToo, if a male star played a gay role it was career suicide.) Timothee wore a gender-fluid women’s lace Vuitton jacket without a shirt to the Oscars, and a red backless halter top to the Venice Film Festival. He’s currently promoting his film Bones and All in which he plays a bisexual cannibal, on the cover of British Vogue. And he’s the first man to grace that cover without a female. Hyper-masculine movie stars (like Tom Hardy) should consider themselves warned! Keep in mind Brad Pitt is already wearing skirts…

TIMOTHEE CHALAMET: IT’S TIME TO TALK ABOUT WOODY ALLEN

Timothee Chalamet appears to be lost in his thoughts as he rides his bike around Manhattan’s Battery Park. Just maybe, one of these days he will think about addressing his issues with Woody Allen. Is he blocking out what he did to devastate Woody’s career? When Timothee announced that he regretted working with Woody in A Rainy Day in New York and was donating his salary to charity, he implied that he believed the accusation that Woody was guilty of molesting his daughter Dylan in 1992. (Two investigations found Woody NOT guilty and NO ONE else ever accused him of such behavior) Following his lead, other actors backed away from Woody because they were afraid NOT to, and it was fashionable in the Time’s Up era. Amazon dumped the movie and Woody’s career is demolished. Yet Timothee refuses to discuss this horrific incident in interviews, citing “contractual obligations.” It’s time for Timothee to think and talk about this issue.

DOES TIMOTHEE CHALAMET KNOW THAT HE DESTROYED WOODY ALLEN’S CAREER?

Just can’t help but wonder if Timothee Chalamet has regrets about destroying Woody Allen’s career. Timothee probably didn’t expect his behavior to have such a lasting effect on Woody’s life. Woody enjoyed working with Timothee in his film A Rainy Day in New York, according to Woody’s book Apropos of Nothing. A mutual friend told Woody that Timothee was advised to distance himself from Woody and donate his salary from Rainy Day to charity, because it would increase his chances of being nominated for an Oscar. (He did get a nomination for Call Me By Your Name, but no Oscar.) Following Timothee’s lead, other actors in Woody’s film started backing away from Woody and donating to Time’s Up also. They were afraid NOT to. Amazon dumped the movie, scrapped releasing it, and canceled Woody’s 4 picture deal. All this happened because Woody was accused of “molesting” his adopted daughter Dylan who was living with his bitter ex Mia Farrow. Two investigations found him not guilty and NO ONE ELSE ever accused Woody of such behavior. We think he’s innocent and you will too, if you read Woody’s book. Timothee should read Woody’s book…

TIMOTHEE CHALAMET’S HEROIC GESTURE

Can’t WAIT to read Woody Allen’s new book Apropos of Nothing– by the way, you cannot buy it from Amazon. In the book, Woody talks about filming A Rainy Day in New York with Timothee Chalamet. Not long after they wrapped, Timothee got an Oscar nomination for the movie Call Me By Your Name. At that time it was shocking when Timothee publicly stated he regretted working with Woody, and was giving his salary to charity. Woody says Timothee told his sister that he needed to do that because his agent felt he had a better chance of winning if he denounced Woody, so he did! Other actors followed suit. Timothee did not win the Oscar, and Woody remarked that he only pays union minimum salary to his actors so donating it was not actually such a “heroic gesture.” Woody’s movie was released in Europe, but Amazon refused to release it here.

LILY-ROSE DEPP: ASK ME NO QUESTIONS

Lily-Rose Depp is 20 now and she’s grown into quite a beauty. She costarred as Timothee Chalamet’s wife in the Netflix film The King, and they’ve been a secretive but hot couple since paparazzi caught them together in October. Having famous parents inspired Lily-Rose to keep her personal life very private – she’s no Kardashian. Trouble is, she’s SO private that nobody knows if the pair is still a couple – they haven’t been seen together for a month. And Lily-Rose is not talking…

ANNETTE BENING AND WARREN BEATTY: THEY SAID IT WOULDN’T LAST!

When Annette Bening and Warren Beatty surprised everyone by getting married in 1992, HE was by far, the bigger star. After he became successful, Warren started taking his time about making movies – whether he starred or directed, so he wasn’t as prolific as Annette. She took some time off with her children, but basically made a LOT of impressive films. Nowadays, SHE seems to be the bigger star and she’s one of the lucky over 50 women in Hollywood who keeps getting offers. (Besides “Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool” in which she plays Gloria Grahame, Bening has three more movies in the works.) She and Warren appeared quite happy at The Moving Image Salute to Annette Bening this week in New York. Also at the event was Timothy Chalamet from “Call Me By Your Name” looking rather handsome.
