Mary at the Dallas International Film Festival

on April 13, 2013April 13, 2013 by Jessica Comments Off

Mary looked lovely in blue while attending the Dallas International Film Festival yesterday in Texas to receive the Dallas Shining Star Award. Head to the gallery to check out the photos, the first few credited towards the respective owners. Shoutout to Ellie for posting the HQ ones!

Congrats again, Mary! Well deserved!

A reporter for Examiner also caught up with Mary at DIFF & shared the following story:

My favorite interview of the evening was with one of my favorite actresses, Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Winstead has appeared in many films including Sky High, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, The Thing, Final Destination 3, and most recently starred in the independent film Smashed with “Breaking Bad” actor Aaron Paul. Winstead talked to me about her favorite kinds of movies to do. She says that small movies that do not get trailers and that everyone is there because they are really passionate about it are her favorite. Of course, she also enjoys working on the bigger films like Scott Pilgrim vs. The World where she got to play iconic comic book character Ramona Flowers. She and I spoke about my 9 year old newphew’s love of the film and how he makes us watch it with the commentary on so that he can learn trivia about his favorite film. The photo in the slideshow of us speaking shows her reaction to this, along with finding out he went as the title character for Halloween carrying around the famous, “Have you seen a girl with hair like this?” drawing. Winstead was very honored to have gotten the call about DFS wanting to honor her accomplishments and spoke about how well Dallas was treating her. Winstead has several projects that will be released later this year. The first one, which she spoke a little about, is The Spectacular Now which will be released in August. It is directed by her Smashed director James Ponsoldt. Winstead has a supporting role in the film. She also talked about finishing up the comedy A.C.O.D. with the “very funny” co-stars Adam Scott and Amy Poehler. Winstead was unsure of when the film will be released.

New Bullett Magazine Outtake; Mary Updates on Upcoming Album

on April 11, 2013 by Jessica Comments Off

Lots of news is happening for our gal Mary! First up, I’ve added a great new outtake from Mary’s Bullett Magazine shoot she did last summer with photographer Michael Donovan (via Sah D). If you missed the interview from the shoot, click here to read it as well as the behind the scenes footage here. Additionally, head to the gallery to check out the new outtake!

Also, Mary tweeted out some exciting news! She’s finally completed her first album!

Back in July, Mary talked about working on her album with Dan the Automator and said “the inspiration behind it is, like, French ’60s pop—Jane Birkin, and stuff like that. It’s kind of married with Dan’s sensibility, which is his beats and a little bit of that low-key hip-hop vibe.”

And finally, as a reminder, Mary will be in Dallas tomorrow to receive her Dallas Shining Star Award at the 2013 Dallas Film Society Honors. Congrats!

Mary To Receive the Dallas Shining Star Award

on April 2, 2013 by Jessica Comments Off

Huge congrats are in order to Mary Elizabeth Winstead!! It was just announced that our favorite actress will be receiving the Dallas Shining Star Award at the 2013 Dallas International Film Festival. Below is the press release with the announcement:

The Dallas International Film Festival presented by AutoNation Volkswagen Dealers announced today that actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead will accept the Dallas Shining Star Award at the 2013 Dallas Film Society Honors presented by the Arthur E. Benjamin Foundation April 12.

“Mary Elizabeth is the kind of effervescent shining star that is inspiring and fun to watch,” said James Faust, Artistic Director of the Dallas International Film Festival. “We are happy to honor this kind of artist who is inspiring a new generation of filmmakers – shining stars have spirits that are simply infectious, and Mary Elizabeth is just that kind of actress.”

Winstead starred in the film SMASHED that Faust refers to as “so amazing.” In SMASHED, which will play during DIFF, Winstead plays a wife whose bond with her husband, played by Aaron Paul, is built on a mutual love of alcohol. Their relationship is put to the test when Winstead’s character decides to get sober.

Winstead’s other notable film roles include SKY HIGH, THE RING TWO, the horror remake BLACK CHRISTMAS, Tarantino’s GRINDHOUSE and the blockbuster LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD. Her television credits include the NBC daytime drama “Passions,” where she played the role of Jessica Bennett, for which she received nominations from The Hollywood Reporters’ Young Star Awards and the Young Artist Awards.

SO happy for her! Completely well deserved. Congrats again, Mary! 😀
