Eva Green and Gemma Arterton to star in lesbian romance

I'll have to watch, methinks.

Shame there was never a Lotte Lenya & Ilse Steppat lesbian movie.

You're a sick puppy, CJB.

But yes, 2 attractive actresses who have no problem with onscreen nudity starring as lovers definitely sounds worth a fap ... er, watch.

Unfortunately Eva Green pulled out due to scheduling conflicts, and was replaced by Elizabeth Debicki. Can't say I am as enthused to see this... Always found Debicki to be rather cold and clinical.

I quite like Debicki. She represents a type of actress that had become somewhat rare in Hollywood.

Who are the other representatives of said group?

The kind of blondes Hitchcock liked to cast.

You ever seen any Hitchcock, Fields?

Debicki hasn't a patch on Grace Kelly, Eva Marie Saint, Janet Leigh, Kim Novak, Tippi Hendren, etc.

I think her height might hold her back more than anything else.
She is apparently legitimately 1,90 m tall, which means she will tower over almost every leading man in Hollywood, even without heels.

More likely to be cowardice if Antichrist is anything to go by. No loss, she's a terrible actress.

I've only seen Elizabeth Debicki in UNCLE. She was fine in that, though the men were prettier.

Not enough pizazz to play a femme fatale. Check out The Night Manager. She does angst well enough in that, I suppose. 

Yeah, I imagine her height would be an issue.

She also played Jordan Baker on the 2013 "Great Gatsby" adaptation by Baz Luhrman.
I didn't have a particularly high opinion of the film, but I thought her performance in that was fine as well.

If it focuses on a human story of unrequited love, it might be ok. If it's misandry disguised as a love story, I'll pass. This might be Debicki's best performance, however.
