Johnny Depp's Nine Sexiest Roles
The sky is blue, water is wet, and Johnny Depp is ridiculously sexy.
These are facts you just can't argue with. If you tried to argue with that last one, millions of women (and a good number of men) would descend upon you with DVDs, posters, and issues of People Magazine as evidence.
He's just so... hot, what with the chocolate eyes and those sharp cheekbones. To top it off, the man is perhaps most irresistible as a pirate -- a promiscuous, unhygienic, clearly unbathed pirate -- as he proves once again reprising the role of Captain Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger ...

Movies With Heart: The 100 Best 'Romdramedies' Of The Past 20 Years
There's the quintessential romantic comedy, and then there's the romdramedy. Similar to a dramedy (in which there is an equal balance of humor and serious content), a romdramedy combines comedy and drama with that mushy thing we call romance.
This is not a list of the best films over the past 20 years. Rather it is a list that gives preferences to those films that best combine all three elements - romance, comedy and drama.
Films like Magnolia and The Matrix were barred from competition, while films like Down with Love were considered (however, that one didn't make the cut)....

Juliette Binoche Dreams Of Marriage
Actress Juliette Binoche regrets never marrying - because she has always dreamed of walking down the aisle. The 43-year-old has been romantically linked to French director Leos Carax and Kylie Minogue's ex-boyfriend Olivier Martinez - but has yet to tie the knot with any of her partners.
She says, "It's not a great regret, but I've always said I'd love to get married. But the opportunity hasn't come along yet." However the French beauty insists her single status is not down to a lack of offers: "I have been proposed to four times. It happened twice at the beginning of a relationship a...

Santa Visits Olin Before Taking Off On Christmas Eve
Actress Lena Olin's home is the place to celebrate the holidays because Santa always makes a stop before flying off around the world to deliver presents. The Chocolat star loves turning her home into a Swedish winter wonderland on Christmas Eve, complete with gift-giving and St. Nicholas.
Olin, who was born in Scandinavia, explains, "We get all the Swedish food from the neighborhood market. We have very heavy Christmas food.

Juliette Binoche Learns How To Dance
Actress Juliette Binoche is taking time out of Hollywood to learn to dance. The Chocolat star has agreed to perform a contemporary dance work by choreographer Akram Khan at London's National Theatre next year - even though she has never had lessons in her life. Kahn has defended his unlikely casting, insisting Binoche is bound to be a natural.
He says, "She has been training a lot in the past year and I have no doubts of what she can achieve. From seeing her in some films such as Damage and Three Colours Blue I knew she had an ability not to be afraid of taking on demanding roles, and...
