Tilda Swinton Founds Freaky Film Festival

Now I've heard everything. Well maybe not when it comes to Tilda Swinton.

The Narnia actress is starting a small festival in her hometown of Nairn in north-east Scotland. She's named the bizarre festival "The Ballerina Ballroom Cinema of Dreams." Tickets to films will cost $6 or a tray of baked goods, and everyone will sit on beanbags to take in "films with highly coloured, dreamlike elements," according to the Guardian.

Part of the impetus behind the festival is Swinton and [co-organiser Mark] Cousins' idea that "Money dictates the festival circuit too much, and fogs the pure, romantic obsession with film." He added: "There are too many film festivals all trying to do the same kind of thing - what is there if you pare away all the frocks and the fuss? It amuses me that Tilda Swinton, who has been up all the red carpets, wants to do this - there's a degree of punk about it."

The festival will run from August 15 to the 23rd. Who will she bring? Her husband, her lover and/or her kids?

I wish I lived closer.

Sean Penn, Robin Wright and Petra Nemcova in Three-Way

Hey, horny - get your mind out of the gutter. I'm talking about a three-way conversation. Newly-reconciled couple Sean Penn and Robin Wright were spotted chatting with supermodel Petra Nemcova, who Penn reportedly hooked up with after he and Wright split in December.

I wonder if Robin and Sean's little act was just to seem civilized in front of their kids, but when the paparazzi turned away Robin slipped some Ex-Lax into Petra's mai-tai.

Nemcova was hosting an A-list party at Nikki Beach in Cannes to announce her latest project, a documentary about love. Looks like there's a chance of seeing Petra in a three-way after all.
