the wit and wisdom of jessica alba
I left the film Sin City feeling decidedly scammed out of seven bucks. Oh, I liked the film for what it was, but for me there was no getting past the following act of fraud: I had just paid to see Jessica Alba act. Cash. I felt deceived, my trust abused. Never again, I vowed, would I pay money to see that dime-store mannequin strain to simulate something approximating human emotions or polysyllabic words.
And then a quote came to my attention. On a page opposite this photo, under a paragraph that contains both her measurements and her saying "I got plenty of ass," Miss Alba laments "I look forward to the day when I can do a small movie and act."
Indeed. That makes two of us.
