[@vaw796]

@@Celisar1 Renee does not look horrible, people age it is part of life. She looks happy and healthy and I'd say glowing compared to a few years ago. Renee denied any botox when the last Bridget Jones movie came out, but you could tell she'd had botox and fillers that ruined her face. She looks natural now and you are being rude. Are you that shallow? Looks fade, you too will age and no plastic surgery will hold back time. Remember that and stop being nasty about people.

[@Celisar1]

Vi Storm I prefer people aging normally by far. She destroyed her face with botox and whatever she did to change her face that much. It’s not rude but the truth. Especially an actress needs her face for her work and Zellweger even diminished her acting capabilities with that nonsense. Aging is a normal part of life and although there is nothing wrong with some minor corrections no woman should feel any necessity to get plastic surgery. Don’t write prejudiced and stupid comments if you don’t know or understand somebody’s view.

wendy darling It was at both the Toronto Intl Film Festival & Cinefest, my hometown Sudbury, Ontario's & the 3rd largest Film Festival in Canada, two weeks after Toronto. It was actually Cinefest's Closing Gala Film this year & the head of the board actually had to hold a Press Conference begging people to stop calling the Offices about tickets for Judy. They were all gone as soon they went on sale & that was that!! So some of those commenting very well could've, more likely seen it at TIFF or up here at Cinefest. I'm sure there were also some Focus Group Screenings that have taken place too in a few places. I haven't seen it yet, but as a huge, huge, huge Judy Garland fan, I *really* want to. From the various ads & clips I've seen, Renee transformed herself into Judy in much the same as Rami Malek transformed himself into Freddie Mercury. Just from the bits & bobs I've seen & heard? I think Renee's Best Supporting Actress Oscar better be ready for a Best Actress one joining it in a few months.
