Vanity Fair November 2008 : Amy Adams by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott

[Bahiyya]

^^ I'm pretty sure that's what it aims for even if one or two staff members have delusions of grandeur . It attempts a "hard hitting" political expose occasionally but deep, investigative pieces about Ol' Blue Eyes' lovers and the latest hot thing ODing in a hot night spot bathroom is its bread & butter. It's an industry mag so I figure it just represents the system . Pretty pictures, sometimes.

MMA does the article on Kate & William look any good? They're my new obsession ever since William started to bald, poor chap.

Here's the full UHQ scans of the VF cover & editorial (if anyone is interested, that is ).






**All scans by yours truly

I'm interested! And your scans are gorgeous . Love Amy on the cover but the editorial...really VF has got to get over its Old Hollywood nostalgia, it's so *boring*. They put everyone from debut tv sitcom actresses to Oscar winners in the same darn get-up.

While I'm not particularly a great fan of Amy Adams and don't really appreciate her acting skills, I love this cover and her feature. She looks very "old Hollywood" and I had never imagined she could look like that. Thanks for the scans, kroqjock!

This is Amys second major cover this year right?There was also ELLE which if the reports i read are to be belived it did terribly and she did not sell, i dont know why since she is smart, talented and beautiful.

And no doubt George Clooney or Brad Pitt will be back on the cover soon enough. I got the issue today, and Amy's interview seems such a small part of the issue, she's easy to get past, if you don't like her. And this month, VF seems even more article-heavy than ever, there's certainly some reading it in.

I enjoyed the article... I knew nothing about her so it was interesting to me. There are a few pics.

The best for me in this issue was the feature on David Levine I love his drawings & my Father was a collector of his work... he always had a subscription to The New York Review of Books... so I grew up around them.

Oooo, I didn't know about the Levine feature! I read NYRB too only more out of obligation these days because it's rather stodgy (Bookforum is so much more exciting). Levine is typically one of the highlights. I'll probably buy this VF then. Thanks for the info .
