I have added even more photos of Mary at the Sundance Film Festival. The first set features Mary and her SMASHED co-stars as well as the film’s director attending the Variety Studio At The 2012 Sundance Film Festival. Moreover, pics from a cast interview at the Sundance channel, a SMASHED photoshoot and Mary attending a Grey Goose Vodka event have all been added to the gallery!

The first batch of the 2012 Sundance Film Festival have hit, and I’ve uploaded them into the gallery. Mary hit up the Celebrate The Filmmakers Sponsored By Youtube event. You can see all the HQ pics by clicking on the thumbs below. We’ll be updating the site with tons more pics from Sundance and the premiere of Smashed throughout the weekend so keep checking back!
This is super exciting! Smashed is only a few days from premiering at Sundance 2012 and Mary has been getting a bunch of early online buzz for her performance as well as one of the films to check out if you’re attending Sundance. Huge congrats Mary! This is only the beginning of one heck of an amazing career! We’ll keep you posted on all Sundance updates and photos of Mary!
THR for one, named Mary as one of the six faces to watch out for:
Although the 27-year-old actress has done her share of studio work (The Thing, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Final Destination 3), her raw performance in the competition film Smashed as a woman struggling to shed her marriage’s dependence on alcohol showcases stripped-down dramatic chops that could open doors.
NextMovie also praises Mary’s acting, saying it’ll show audiences her acting chops. Something we’ve all known she’s always had. 😉
Mary Elizabeth Winstead (“The Thing”) has long been one of our favorite young actresses, but up until now she’s never really been given the chance to show what we knew she had all along — real acting chops. That all looks to change with her reportedly harrowing turn in “Smashed,” an intense drama in which she stars as Kate, a hard partying elementary schoolteacher forced to get her life on track. Winstead is the reason we’re psyched to see this, but the film also boasts a solid supporting cast that includes Aaron Paul (“Breaking Bad”), Octavia Spencer (“The Help”) and “Will and Grace” funny-lady Megan Mullaly.
FilmSchoolRejects also echoes the same feelings…
While many films look at addiction and the downward spiral it can send users into, Smashed looks to focus on the point between rock bottom and recovery as Kate (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) sobers up and realizes that her marriage to Charlie (Aaron Paul) may have been rooted in booze rather than love. Paul has been getting critical acclaim for his work on AMC’s Breaking Bad and it should be interesting to see him playing against Windstead (whose performance was one of the highlights in last year’s The Thing) with TV royalty Nick Offerman and wife Megan Mullally rounding out the cast.
I have added some new candids to the site’s gallery.
The first come from Mary shopping at The Grove in L.A. this past December. You can see a video of that here.
Additionally, you can see a new candid pic of Mary and Riley leaving W Magazine’s 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards Celebration here. Special thanks to Cindy for the Grove pics!! 🙂
As you call can see, we have a new layout up! I really hope you like it as much as I and Jessica do – the picture is from Mary’s photo shoot with Flaunt magazine last year (you can check out more of the set here in our gallery). Unfortunately, this is going to be my last update until the end of February since I have exams coming up – but when I am back I promise to finally work a little more to bring back the site’s content. Until then I am sure Jessica will continue to do a fabulous job and keep you all updated with what’s going on with Mary and her career! 🙂
Mary is looking really stunning on the red carpet lately! Last night, Mary attended the” W Magazine, With Dom Perignon, Celebrates Its Best Performances Issue And The Golden Globes” pre-party event looking amazing once again!
Check out the pics in the gallery, and if anything, I will add more later today. ENJOY!
Another short film Mary has a small role in as ‘the computer voice’ for director BenDavid Grabinski’s “Cost of Living”, will be premiering online this Valentine’s Day.
Grabinski took to his Tumblr and posted some behind the scenes footage, which was done by Mary’s husband Riley. Cost of Living reunites Mary with her Scott Pilgrim vs the World star Brandon Routh.
We’ll be sure to post the video in full once online, but for now, enjoy the teaser footage.

Woah. Mary looked absolutely STUNNING in her dress while attending last night’s Forevermark And InStyle Golden Globes Event – “A Promise Of Beauty And Brilliance” event in L.A.
Check out all the HQ pics in the gallery. Also, enjoy the video I’ve posted below:
