After an award show ends -- and when the real work begins -- Jessica and I always put on a movie or two. This year, post-Globes, we did a Renee Zellweger double bill, beginning with *Bridget Jones' Diary* and rolling into the woefully underappreciated *Down With Love*. Which, naturally, begat a conversation about whatever did happen to Catcher Block, women's man, man's man, man about town.

Enter Mr. McGregor at the *Mortdecai* premiere:

In deeply graceful terms: He might be kind of a goober now? The whole I'm Wearing A Leather Jacket Instead Of My Tuxedo Or Suit Coat motif feels a bit like the exertions of a midlife crisis. Then again, I do LOVE a good leather jacket, and I'm not goober-averse at ALL, and Ewan has a lot of currency with me thanks to his admittedly moony-eyed turn in *Moulin Rouge* and then the delicious parody of *Down With Love*, so... basically, I will accept his cash and offer him a favorable exchange rate, even if I will NEVER watch *Mortdecringe* until such time as I am trapped on an airplane eating something out of a plastic tray that purports to be lasagna.
