(a) Michelle Williams did not attend, for reasons I do not know; (b) EVERYONE had a version Anne's outfit; (c) all these denim choices are tragic.

Same shoes! I actually think this dress has aged very well. (I also liked her bangs of this time period.)

I feel like, somewhere in Los Angeles, Michelle Williams looked at this and wondered why her beloved did not shine his shoes. (Facially, though, gorgeous, as always.)

Jake looks great AND spent the entire red carpet mugging hugely like this.

Maggie was Jake's date for the event; this look is kind of great, honestly. Her shoes are VERY cute. (She ALSO mugged the entire time.)

David Strathairn, who is so handsome, made some interesting shoe choices here; Clooney is in his FULL movie star period, although August in Italy is an insane time to drape yourself in velvet.
Donnie Yen and Cissy Wang
