ALBA’S A HOOKER WITH A HEART OF GOLD
Jessica Alba as a hooker? I’m sure more than a few fellows have fantasized about that prospect, but she’s doing it for real in Michael Winterbottom's noir thriller, The Killer Inside Me, says Variety. Based on the novel by Jim Thompson, the story is about a West Texas sheriff (Casey Affleck) and his downward spiral from a boring small-town cop into a ruthless, sociopathic murderer, with Alba playing the said small town’s only vice. Killer is the latest in Alba's crusade to finally be taken seriously as an actress, because as we all know, playing a hooker (with a heart of gold, preferably) usually means, “I’m putting myself out there to show how vulnerable I can be. Now, give me an Oscar!” Look, Alba has been is some serious dogs of late (Good Luck Chuck the absolute worst), but we’re still rooting for her. Patience, girl, patience.
