"I just LOVE him and love the fact that he has turned into such a wonderful actor, partner and father. Good for him. The pic with the two of them together just melts my heart. My hubby looks at me like that still and I treasure it because some women wish they could find a good man who will still look at them the same way they did years before."

"If you ask Violet what I do, she'll say she remembers me bowing on stage when I did a show in New York, and so she'll say, 'My mom sometimes will bow on stage and sometimes she gets her hair and makeup done.' It's a great job!"

“Everything” about motherhood surprises Maggie Gyllenhaal

Tags: News, Quotes

Maggie_gyllenhaal_1_cbbjpg Revealing that being a mother has "changed and deepened" everything in her life, Maggie Gyllenhaal shared that it has improved her acting by exposing her to both the highs and lows of parenthood — things that she shares "absolutely equally" with fiancé Peter Sarsgaard.

I never knew that I could be so tired. I never knew that I could workso hard. I never knew that I could love so much or be so patient or beso excited by the tiniest, tiniest little thing. Everything about ithas surprised me.

Now that daughter Ramona is approaching 21 months, Maggie has headed back to work, albeit to a lesser number of projects than she took on previously. The Dark Knight star, 30, explained that it’s "really difficult" to draw her away from her little girl, and that it takes a high-quality script for her to give a film a second glance.

It’s difficult to find a script that’s good enough for me tothink, ‘Okay, I really need to do this instead of being with my daughter.

Known for her thought-provoking, risk-taking performances in such films as Sherrybaby and Secretary, Maggie has been questioned — like fellow actress Naomi Watts — as to if her choice in subject matter may change now that she’s a mother.

Some people have asked me whether I’ll choose things that … have amore sort of child-appropriate content, and I don’t think so. I thinkI’ll choose what’s interesting to me.

The Dark Knight is in theaters July 18th.

Featured Review: Venettini: Go from playground to party in the same shoe

Tags: CBB Faves

by Teba:

6900561560p Last season after sampling an insane amount of name-brands on my toddler daughter’s feet, I came across a brand called Venettiniand quickly became smitten.  Dressing my daughter in the morningsbecame incredibly easy because her little hands reached for the MaryJanes that went with every outfit. I loved these shoes and so did mydaughter so it was only logical that when looking for a summer sandalthis same brand would be our first choice.

It’s been five months since Heath Ledger passed away, and although the media wants a "dark story," co-stars say that just isn’t the man they knew. Speaking at Sunday’s press day for The Dark Knight, which opens July 18th, Gary Oldman reminisced about how during breaks in filming, Heath would "sit on the curbside …  laugh and talk about his daughter Matilda [Rose]." The actor added, "I thought he was just a beautiful kid. I thought he was justwonderful. I had a real affection for him."

Co-star Aaron Eckhart, who plays District Attorney Harvey Dent opposite Heath’s Joker, agreed, sharing, "Heath showed me pictures of [Matilda] … [he] would come in and say she did this and she did that."

Heath passed away from an accidental prescription pill overdose on January 22nd, 2008. Matilda, now 2 ½, is his daughter with actress Michelle Williams.
