Elf, Mary Steenburgen


Just watching "Elf". If you can stand a Christmas movie, it's a fun one.

In it I was stunned to see Mary Steenburgen looking as beautiful as ever, at over fifty. Her smile is awesome.

It's by Jon Favreau. I was pleased to see that in designing Santa's home and workshop, which could easily have been an unbearable orgy of green and red, they chose to go with light grey tones for everything, walls and furniture, very nice.

Yes, she is lovely!
I actually decided to look her up for more films.

She has a few singing vids on Youtube. You can search for her or her band 'she and he'.

Oddly, the director of Elf now the director of Iron Man...always thought that was an odd transition.

I agree. I did wonder why nobody talked about how that happened, in the myriad extras on the Iron Man disc. I'd think they would be careful about who they handed reigns of a blockbuster feature film.
