i disagree.  i think they're both tremendous actresses...though having said that, i haven't seen a chloe performance that didn't immediately strike me...whereas scarlett johannson's horse whisperer performance is pretty tepid.
i wanna lick 'em.

she was delightfully understated in ghost world.  but kinda like chloe (and julianne for that matter: see versatility thread), she kinda gets stuck in the same type of roles; in her case, it's bored, nonchalant blase type young women.  just like i wanna see chloe go sophisticated,and julianne get out of suburban housewifery, i wanna see scarlett go ape shit.  that would be interesting.

This seems terribly old-fashioned and anti-art to me:


Movie actress Chloe Sevigny has been dumped by the William Morris Agency, because of her unsimulated oral sex scene in controversial movie Brown Bunny. The 29-year-old star shocked audiences earlier this year when she performed the graphic sex act on actor Vincent Gallo in the movie which was slammed by critics at the Cannes Film Festival. And now William Morris has decided that they no longer want to represent Chloe, who has already signed up with rival agency Endeavor reports website Page Six. A source says, "The scene was one step above pornography, and not a very big one. William Morris now feels that her career is tainted and may never recover, especially after rumors began circulating about the even more graphic outtakes that didn't make it into the actual film." But Sevigny insists that despite the media storm, she made the decision to end her eight-year business relationship with the firm. Her spokesperson Amanda Horton told Page Six in response, "After being represented by William Morris for eight years, last summer, Ms. Sevigny decided that she no longer wished to be represented by the agency. At no time did William Morris try and 'drop' Ms. Sevigny, as any official representative from William Morris would tell you if they weren't all on vacation."
""Money doesn't come into it. It never has. I do what I do because it's all that I am." - Morrissey

"Lacan stressed more and more in his work the power and organizing principle of the symbolic, understood as the networks, social, cultural, and linguistic, into which a child is born. These precede the birth of a child, which is why Lacan can say that language is there from before the actual moment of birth. It is there in the social structures which are at play in the family and, of course, in the ideals, goals, and histories of the parents. This world of language can hardly be grasped by the newborn and yet it will act on the whole of the child's existence."

i just revisited boys don't cry last night.  oh my god.  chloe's performance is just insanely good.  i feel just as exhilerated by it if not more so than the first time i saw the movie.  

what struck me most about performance was the way she developed Lana so well.  she was obviously a troubled, tortured person in her own right given her socioeconomic despair and family dysfunction...and sevigny never lost hold of that essential tragedy even while showing her sweet side with brandon. lana was interesting even apart from brandon and i fucking loved how chloe captured those interesting qualities.

Sevigny wed to 'Love' for HBO, Playtone

Chloe Sevigny has been tapped to co-star in HBO's drama pilot "Big Love," from Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman's Playtone Prods.

Rodrigo Garcia has come on board to direct.

Additionally, the Oscar-nominated actress has been cast opposite Ben Kingsley and Annette Bening in the Killer Films/Number 9 Films indie feature "Mrs. Harris," financed by HBO, and in Lars von Trier's "Manderlay."

"Big Love" centers on a polygamist's relationship with his three wives. Sevigny will play one of the wives.

Will Scheffer and Mark V. Olsen penned the script and are executive producing with Hanks and Goetzman. Production is scheduled to begin in April.

Garcia made his directorial debut with "Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Her." His series credits include HBO's "Carnivale," "Six Feet Under" and "The Sopranos" and NBC's "Boomtown."

"Mrs. Harris" tells the story of Jean Harris (Bening), who in 1980 killed her boyfriend, Dr. Herman Tarnower (Kingsley), inventor of the Scarsdale diet.

Sevigny will play a nurse and a lover of Tarnower.

Phyllis Nagy is directing from her own script.

"Manderlay," the second installment in von Trier's trilogy "U, S and A," following "Dogville," is set in the South during the 1930s and centers on slavery. The project follows Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard), the character played in "Dogville" by Nicole Kidman.

Several cast members of "Dogville," including Sevigny, will appear in "Manderlay" playing new characters. Sevigny will play the daughter of the Manderlay plantation owner. Also tapped for the project are Danny Glover and John C. Reilly.

Sevigny was nominated for an Oscar in 2000 for "Boys Don't Cry."

In addition to "Dogville," her recent credits include "Shattered Glass," "The Brown Bunny" and "Party Monster."
