Quvenzhané Wallis to play Annie: It’s official!
I’m a kid at heart, so I couldn’t help but get excited when Sony confirmed Quvenzhané Wallis to play Annie in an updated movie version of the beloved Broadway musical and comic strip.

Golden Globes 2013: Maggie Smith vs. Sofia Vergara — cat fight?
“Downton Abbey” is a feast for the eyes. It’s beautifully filmed, written, and acted.

It’s the story of the Earl of Grantham, his […]
