Rumer Willis, oddly handsome
Ostensibly, "The House Bunny" is a vehicle for Anna Faris. But it also has a part for Rumer Willis as the most unfortunate of the sad-sack sorority girls whom Faris's homeless Playboy Bunny makes over. Willis wears a body brace (see above) for half the movie, and until it falls off, I felt sad for the pretty girl underneath all that equipment. She has a face as long and curved as a crescent moon. All the features are either small, sharp, or angular. But it's more than a geometry student's dream. It's arresting.
Not until the closing credits did I know Body Brace Girl was Bruce and Demi's daughter. There's no telling whether she's talented (she can walk, talk, and run; and she evidently has a good sense of humor). It doesn't matter, though. That face is pretty amazing: a queerly perfect blend of both her parent's, beautiful and handsome at the same time. Two good-looking stars produced this exotic-looking child.
This is pretty much true for Eva Amurri, Susan Sarandon and Franco Amurri's kid. She also acts, has an equally full, fascinating face, and she is pretty good. As a matter of physiognomy, Amurri and Willis are both great for movies. The crime, of course, is that there probably won't be many interesting movies for their faces. Someone get them a European director quick -- or an American who finds them as interesting as the French find Ludivine Sagnier.
