The movie of my life

While watching Sylvia, which is a British film based on the life of American poet, Sylvia Plath, I couldn't help but think, "If someone decides to do a movie based on my life one day* I'd want Gwyneth Paltrow for the part." I'm not saying we look alike (although we both have blonde hair). I just feel no matter what role Gwyneth is in she comes across as a very distinguished and classy gal. She oozes elegance. I know, many may argue, "She's a snob." To this I would answer: Who isn't mistaken for being a snob these days? All it takes is to have a slightly introvert personality and people will often mistake someone who is quiet as someone who is a snob. When in reality, not until you throw in Izod apparel or vacations in the Hamptons do you really start to get a glimpse of what real snobbery entails.

Anyway, if I had to be remembered on film I'd want the portrayal to be classy. And did I mention how lovely Gwyneth is?


I would hope she would wear more than this simple towel for the movie but even if she did that would be okay, too. I know I often try the towel look, as well.

* Yes, I know this idea is absurd.

*"this is absurd"

Yes, I agree, I never would think Gwyneth Paltrow = Sylvia Plath.

No, no, no. Instead I see someone like Winona Ryder or Christina Ricci--actresses who can easily slip into Goth characters. I can not imagine Gwyneth giving voice to 'The Bell Jar' or other Plath melodrama.

Nope, don't buy it.

I haven't seen this movie, but it sounds interesting. Gwyneth Paltrow is definitely beautiful. I am not sure about her acting, but you're right there is something elegant about her. I wouldn't have considered her a snob though. I mean she is married to Chris Martin.
