Brittany Snow, who played the daughter of Michelle Pfeiffer in Hairspray, has just played in Finding Amanda the role of the name of the title. The 22-year-old actress certainly has found the first really great role of her career, as the bubbly young woman who takes up the world's oldest profession (that's prostitution, not entertainment reporting) to maintain her dream home in Las Vegas. Matthew Broderick plays Amanda's uncle Taylor, a television writer with a gambling problem who travels to Vegas to try to "save her" —let's remember Brotherick alongside Pfeiffer in Ladyhawke.

Well, ComingSoon.net spoke to Snow last week and during the interview she was asked about the relationships with members of the family —in the movies— among them like her relationship with Michelle Pfeiffer as her mother in "Hairspray:

How do you prepare to create that kind of family rapport with another character and make it feel real?
Yeah, that's a really good question and that's something that I definitely do consciously. With Michelle, I spent a lot of time studying her, which sounds really creepy, and I told that to her and she was a little freaked out, but also, I think a little honored… no, not honored. Flattered, that's the word. She can't be honored because of me; I'm honored because of her. (laughter) I would watch her in a certain way where I wanted the daughter/mother relationship to be the way she stood, I wanted to stand like that, the way she walked, I wanted to walk like that, just so there was that element of "Wow, this younger daughter is looking up to her mother" and it's an unconscious thing they have and it's connected. I didn't want Michelle to be aware of it, because I didn't think Velma even knew that her daughter was growing up wanting to be her mother so badly, and that happens with a lot of mother-daughters. [...]

Interesting! I really love when other actors talk about Michelle!

Some years ago I found on the net a little thumbnail of an old Harper's Bazaar, Italian edition, which featured a "odd" Michelle Pfeiffer on cover, it was the Scarface style, so the date shoulded be from 1983, I thought. So since then I was obsessed on getting that magazine....

And finally I did!!

On the mag, Michelle Pfeiffer was photographed by James Moore to present the Autum—Winter '83-'84 collection of Gianfranco Ferré. The article inside is an interview promoting Grease 2 with interesting facts about the early steps of Michelle in her career.

Tp get the magazine, I was waiting for the right time, and little time ago I found on the net, in the god-of-search Ebay, and then a hard fight of bids, I got it!!

Of course I have to say that I paid a high price for it, but I think it worth it, at least for the true Collector-Pfans, I know he will appreciate it.

On the other hand I have to say that I was able to buy the mag just thanks to the pfans who have been helping this site with their Paypal Donations, so this especial present of PfeifferTheFace is EXCLUSIVELY for all them: the scans in HQ.

The rest of pfans will be able to see it in a small resolution at Photoshoots & Covers Gallery (By James Moore) and the article scans at Press Corner Gallery.

So, since here I'd like to do a new appeal, I keep needing your support for this site can go on growing. Every article, picture or new feature which you are watching (and you will see) has been bought. Please, take your time and read the rest of reasons here.

Thanks a lot for your support!

Actually it isn't a news around Michelle Pfeiffer, but I just want congratulates to many of you and us:

Hundreds of gay and lesbian couples planed on getting married today on what has been the first full day same-sex weddings are legal throughout California. It was already the time of the present and future in which the land of the cinema, Hollywood, opened the mind...

I know many of us, Michelle Pfeiffer's Pfans, are gays and lesbians... well, it is a great day for all us... and because Hollywood has got a international renown... now let's hope foe the rest of the world.

From here I do one's bit.

The truth is that I thought that it were going to be too hasty... but finally it looks like that the launch of the waited Stephen Frears' Cheri will be finally in 2009 and don't for this year, which the movie was announced to be released in December 2008 in USA and UK.

According the Pfamous Nathaniel from Film Experience Blog, who has got the information:

"We waited five long years for Michelle Pfeiffer's wonderfully spirited 2007 comeback (Stardust & Hairspray) but it looks like Miramax and the Weinsteins got a little over optimistic with that proposed December 2008 date for her next Oscar bid, Chéri. I thought that that movie happened awfully fast! Word, direct from the studio to this pfanatic's ear, is that I should stop holding my breath in pfeverish anticipation. It's probably going to be a 2009 movie after all. With or without La Pfeiffer, 2008's Best Actress race is jam-packed with viable contenders."

Sad... but hoped... On the other hand I agree with Dennis in the Pforum, who thinks that it's better, that they take their time to make a great movie, then that they rush and hurry to make it ready for the oscar awards and it's a bad movie. Of course it's sad, that Michelle woun't be in the run for this years oscars and we really was sure, that she could get her first oscar for Chéri, because it's a role that would get attention by the academy. But there are many other awards,Chéri could get. Let's just hope that Chéri will be a great movie, at the critiques and at the box-office.

Such as you are watching, PfeifferTheFace is releasing a new design. I've wanted it was honoring the 6th Anniversary of the site —actually, it was the past 2nd of June, but I was too busy.

Now perhaps more modern, easy and clear. For the pfans who have kept this site since its born in June of 2002 will be able to remember that I've come back to begining with the color red, one of my fav ones. Do you remember these first esigns in red?... You can do a view over the history of this site throught the past layouts here, even also around the subwebs designs.

I'd like to thanks to the pfans for your sweet words about the layout and supporting me at the Pforum! They are very very very appreciated! Thanks guys!

We all here have kept the thread of Cheri movie when it was a simple project and Michelle Pfeiffer was considerating play the main part.

Such as it was reported here, Jessica Lange for almost 9 years had been involved with this project. She had talked about it in several interviews from October 1999 up to May/June of last year, then in an interviews Lange on January 15 (2008) she said that the people in the project had decided that at 58 years of age she is too old to play the 50 year old Lea —in the interview she sounded pretty much hurt after having studied and rehearsed the part.

Now, according IMDb page, we have noticed that Jessica lange is one of the Executive Producers. In an old interview, Lange said that she had acquired the book rights to be made into a movie.

So, maybe Lange could have encouraged Pfeiffer to take the role —before Julianne Moore, who also was being considerated for the part, accepted it— since the own Jessica couldn't play it ... who knows!! (It is a persnal opinion, of course)

Let's remember Michelle and Jessica worked together in 'A Thousand Acres' and they respect and admire each other, besides they are great friends (it's guessed).

Anyway, I feel pretty glad Jessica Lange goes on envolved in this "her pet" project.

On the other hand according IMDb, the movie's already got release date for this year, it is scheduled to be launched the 15th of December in UK and the 24th in USA, presumably for awards consideration. Awards which some sites dedicated to advance and forecast them are already considerating Michelle Pfeiffer as one of the sure names to be on the Academy Awards race... such as InContention.com, cute site dedicate to the predictions for awards.
