Leave it to Jezebel to post this photo of Helena Bonham Carter under the title "Helena Bonham Carter is a hot mess." Granted, she's not looking as striking as normal (certainly not the goth guy's wet dream that she was in
Sweeney Todd), but give her a break. She just gave birth, like, a month ago. Now, I'm admittedly quick to jump to HBC's defense. I am one of the few who bucked the naysayers and wholly embraced her heartbreaking turn in
Sweeney. Sure, she can't sing, but she embodies Mrs. Lovett's lovelorn desperation with grace and depth. Add that to stirring turns in
The Wings of the Dove, Howards End and
Fight Club and she's above the average snark monger's petty fashion criticism.
That's all.
