Lingerie Leader Hosts Event to Benefit Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance

HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Oct. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Lingerie legend Frederick's of Hollywood is proud to announce Academy Award nominated actress, Julianne Moore as host of the 3rd Annual Frederick's of Hollywood Lingerie Art Auction. This benefit returns again after two hugely successful programs, for which more than 100 celebrities raised funds and awareness for life-changing causes. This year, the Frederick's of Hollywood auction benefits the TS Alliance. Taking place at the new flagship Frederick's of Hollywood boutique on October 27, the event will feature a private shopping reception to benefit TSA and a live auction with celebrity designed corsets.

"We are incredibly honored to have Julianne Moore as our host this year," said Linda LoRe, CEO & President, Frederick's of Hollywood. "Her spirit and generosity are qualities that make her a true role-model for all women. We're certain her passion will be felt throughout the Hollywood community to raise awareness for this great event and for the TS Alliance."

Event Chair Julianne Moore stated, "We at the TS alliance are so excited about this event. It is a chance to raise much-needed funds, as well as raise awareness about a disease that has not been well known, yet it affects as many people as are affected by cystic fibrosis. We are thrilled by Frederick's participation."

As host of this year's event, Moore submitted the first design for the 2005 program. Titled "Peace, Love & Understanding," her design features a body entirely covered with silver sequins and straps of dark grey velvet. Adorning the bottom of the corset is a row of silver peace signs that dangle from the body. A participant for the previous two years, Moore's designs have always been among the top-sellers for the program.

Additionally, just after the October 27 event, Frederick's of Hollywood will host an online auction of corsets at www.fredericks.com. Beginning October 28, website visitors can bid to own a personally designed celebrity corset with all proceeds going to the TS Alliance. A sneak preview of the corsets will go live on the site prior to the live auction to pique potential bidders' interest.

"The TS Alliance is thrilled to partner with Frederick's of Hollywood through Julianne Moore, who has a longstanding relationship with our organization," says Nancy L. Taylor, Chief Executive Officer.

Tales of a desperate housewife

October 2, 2005　BY CINDY PEARLMAN

Julianne Moore isn't shy about airing her dirty laundry in public. In fact, the story she's about to tell reeks of personal details.

"This summer, we rented this little house by the beach. It was me, my husband Bart, and our two kids. All I can say is I did more laundry than I ever thought was possible," says the famous redhead.

"My son likes to play in his socks outside. Every five minutes, I'm like, 'Those socks are filthy. Hand them over right now.' Suddenly, I'd be standing there with another mound of laundry."

Call her an Oscar-nominated desperate housewife.

Moore plays a desperate housewife of another era in "The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio," which opened Friday. Based on a true story, Moore plays Evelyn Ryan, a woman who enters several national jingle-writing contests in the 1950s in order to help feed her 10 children while her hard-drinking husband (Woody Harrelson) digs them into financial holes.

"There was a period of time in America where the advertising world actually went to the housewives of America and had them write jingles that would appeal to them," Moore says. "It was actually brilliant marketing."

Moore's character Evelyn is a former newspaper writer who juggles her kids and a husband who wanted to be a singer. A freak accident ruins his voice and destroys his spirit. That's why he spends the little money he makes at the liquor store.

"It's all on one woman who doesn't even have a job to feed and raise her 10 children. Can you believe it? Ten children," Moore says. "I pat myself on the back that I have two children, a job, and I'm doing OK. I'm managing. This woman was astonishing. She had all the stress and no help. She couldn't work outside the home, but had to find a way for her children to eat.

"The amazing thing is that this woman never gets really depressed," Moore says. "She feels confident. You watch her being able to handle anything."

Evelyn's true problems arise from her husband, who kills her joy. Each time she wins a refrigerator, a shopping spree, or even cash from her jingles, he finds a way to ruin the moment, including beating her new deep freezer with a bat.

"Finally, she says what I think is the most profound line of the movie between this husband and wife," Moore says. "She says, 'I don't need you to make me happy. I need you to leave me alone when I am.'

"The movie basically says that you have to create your own happiness. You also have to express yourself even if you don't seem to have an outlet, which is why this woman wrote jingles for contests."

The real Evelyn died in 1998. Moore was able to talk to several of her children to get a handle on the character.

"The kids even came to the set," Moore says. "And they brought Evelyn's grandchildren. Her best friend, who is still alive, came to the set. This is the friend who took Evelyn to buy her first pantsuit at J.C. Penney, which was a big deal."

Moore says the idea of playing a prize-winner was a bit foreign to her.

"Once, I won $246 in a slot machine," she says. "I didn't even enter contests as a kid. I did once send away for a Captain Crunch watch, but it never came."

What might be coming Moore's way in the coming months is a little statue named Oscar. There's buzz she might get a Best Actress nod for either "Prize Winner" or the upcoming "Freedomland," based on the Richard Price novel. In that film, Moore plays Brenda Martin, a single mother who accuses a man from the projects of kidnapping her young daughter, who is now feared dead. Her accusations spark a racial explosion. The film also stars Samuel L. Jackson as the detective on the case and Edie Falco as a woman who looks for missing children.

"Basically, I play a white woman who walks into a black hospital in the middle of the night and says she was carjacked by a black man," she says. "It's about class division and poverty. In the end, it's really about how alike we are as human beings."

A big bonus for Moore was she got to work on her home turf of New York City. "It was fantastic to star in an urban, East Coast story. We shot in Brooklyn, and I was home every single night, which was really fantastic. I couldn't have been happier," she says.

The other bonus was working with Jackson. "I don't think there is anyone cooler than Sam Jackson," she says. "At the end, he not only gave me a Kangol hat, which made me feel cool, but he also gave me a necklace with my initials on the front and his on the back."

As for the Oscar buzz, Moore sighs.

"All I really want is for people to enjoy my movies," she says. "I want my work to be good, regardless of the other stuff like awards." In another breath, she adds, "Of course, you can't help but get caught up in the Oscar mania. But I think of it like hair."

An explanation is in order.

"OK, if you had a hairdo that you liked, but everyone hated your hair, including your man, then you'd be sad. It's the same thing with movies. I love these movies and if someone else likes them, too, then I'll just be thrilled.

"I won't lie," she says. "I want to be in movies that everyone likes."

In 2003, Moore married director Bart Freundlich, the father of her son Cal, 7, and daughter Liv, 3. Freundlich also directed Moore in "Trust the Man," an upcoming film starring David Duchovny.

At home, neither focuses on Hollywood. "It's all about the kids," she says. "Cal is a big boy now and very much into sports. He's adorable. Liv is so cute, and she wants to be like Mommy."

Moore sounds very much like any working mother when she laments packing her bags after this interview.

"I leave for London tonight and I'll be all by myself. It's awful," she says. "Of course, the first few days are great. I'll watch TV, hang out, read. But then I miss my family so terribly.

"The toughest part is the second night, when my daughter will call and say, 'Where are you, Mom? Are you coming home tomorrow?' And you have to say, 'Not yet, honey.'

"I can't wait to get home and wash all those socks," she says.

Julianne Moore knows how to play house

Actress looks for truth behind '50s role

By Beth Pinsker, Globe Correspondent | October 9, 2005

NEW YORK -- When Julianne Moore had back-to-back showcase roles as '50s housewives in 2002, it seemed like a bad career move, like she was inviting typecasting and cutting herself off from the big-budget love story world after years of wonderful independent films. Then she got Oscar nominations for both films -- a supporting nod for the suicidal mother in ''The Hours" and a best actress one for the perfect suburbanite unmoored by her husband's homosexuality in ''Far From Heaven" -- and suddenly her choices seemed a stroke of genius.

She has played contemporary roles in two major releases since then -- in the thriller ''The Forgotten" and the romantic comedy ''Laws of Attraction" -- but what might take her back to the Academy Awards is another '50s housewife. In ''The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio," which opens Friday, her character, Evelyn Ryan, is a defiant optimist who faces raising 10 children in poverty without much help from an alcoholic husband and ends up supporting them by winning a steady stream of jingle contests. The story is spry and jubilant despite its undercurrent of desperation, and Moore shows a fiery determination behind her long-suffering, pasted-on smile.

At this point, the 45-year-old actress is not worried at all about typecasting.

''What's different about this role is that it's based on a true story," she says, in a hotel suite in New York, where she's dressed casually in gray jeans and a gauzy green shirt over a white camisole. ''The responsibility is entirely different. It's about how you bring the character to life in your own way while remaining faithful to the spirit of who she was."

The director of the film, Jane Anderson (''Normal"), didn't worry at all about putting the redhead into any kind of iconic role. ''I don't consider it repetition at all. There are dozens of stories that are completely different from each other that can be told," she says.

Moore's husband, the director Bart Freundlich, speaking earlier during an interview at the Toronto Film Festival, thinks these roles are just in the cards because his wife is an expert at communicating what's below the surface. ''There's not a lot of opportunity for women of that generation in these films to express themselves verbally or make any big movements," said Freundlich. ''They don't slap anyone or yell; they are always perfect. But Juli's able to communicate the brokenness -- the complexity -- behind that."

Anderson describes a scene in the film where Moore was able to do just that, with an added degree of dignity that amazed her. After Evelyn wins a shopping spree at a supermarket, she's sitting at her kitchen table with all the kids, trying all sorts of foreign delicacies she picked, such as caviar and artichoke hearts. Her husband, played by Woody Harrelson, is expressing his wounded pride at having his wife provide all of their luxuries; he grouses and starts to get violent. The scene was supposed to end after he throws half the contents of the freezer into the backyard, but Anderson kept the cameras rolling, and Moore started improvising.

''You can see her on-screen consciously making the decision not to go to the dark place," says Anderson. ''She went back to the table and said to the kids, 'What should we try next?' Then she had the foresight to invite her husband back to sit with them, and that gave the scene such resonance."

Moore, who early in her career starred in movies as diverse as Todd Haynes's ''Safe" and Louis Malle's ''Vanya on 42nd Street," chalks this up to finding her character's essence. ''Evelyn was an extraordinary individual," she says. ''She had an indomitable spirit, an intense inherent optimism, plus an ability to live in the present and to have a sense of humor." Moore says that watching her mother go through some of these emotions as a military wife, always following her husband through various posts, helped as well.

''My mother is 65 and she felt that," Moore says. ''She was married at 20, and only had a year of nursing school. It was just when things were changing, so I was quite aware as a teenager that there were things I took for granted that my mother didn't have -- that we had choices, that we could have an education, could have a family and a career."

The only thing her mother asked of her was that she didn't go to college in New York -- too scary -- which is how Moore ended up at Boston University in the drama program. Her college experience didn't presage the kind of A-list star she would become.

''I lived all over the place," she says. ''I moved every year I was there. I worked on top of the Howard Johnson's in Kenmore Square, where the Citgo sign is. I worked at Great Gatsby's, and the Boston Tea Party Ship & Museum as a cashier."

Now she's found her way to New York despite her mother's admonition, setting up house in Greenwich Village with Freundlich and their two kids, Cal, 7, and Liv, 3. ''My mom comes to visit now and she still thinks the city is too busy, but maybe not as scary," Moore says.

Moore is so comfortable there that she bases career choices on whether or not she has to stray far from home. She and Freundlich try to time their projects so that only one of them is working at a time, and when they can't work that out, they try to work together.

Moore is the star of Freundlich's latest film, ''Trust the Man," which premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in September and will be released next year. She plays an actress and mother of two young kids the same age as hers (Liv actually makes a cameo in a final scene). The film costars many close family friends, such as Freundlich's schoolmate Billy Crudup, his best West Coast friend David Duchovny, and their longtime friend James LeGros.

LeGros, an ordained minister through the Internet, actually performed Moore and Freundlich's wedding ceremony two years ago. The couple had been together since meeting on the set of Freundlich's directorial debut, ''The Myth of Fingerprints" in 1996, but hadn't made it official. And that little tidbit ends up in the movie.

''I've done four movies with Bart, and five with Julianne; you get to know people over the years," says LeGros, speaking in Toronto.

''You don't have a lot of control in this business, and you don't know what's going to happen, so it's nice to think you have relationships out there like that," says Moore.

Moore has tried her hand at taking the reins, executive-producing ''Marie and Bruce," an independent film based on a play by Wallace Shawn (with whom she starred in ''Vanya") that premiered at Sundance last year. But that wasn't a great experience, which she blames mostly on not having enough time to devote to the project. ''I have no control [of the film] now," she says with exasperation. ''I learned my lesson: If you're going to do it, do it entirely."

On that note, she isn't much interested in stepping behind the camera. ''My husband is a director, so I see what it takes," she says. ''And what it takes is a lot of time."

For now, she's got her hands full, like every other working mom out there. ''It's hard. It's what everyone is doing," she says, and as she finishes her sentence, her cellphone rings, and it's Freundlich, most likely wanting to know when Moore will be home.

''You do the best you can," she adds, silencing the phone ringer. ''The thing that's nicest for us is that we have some flexibility. That's the hardest, hardest thing. I see it at the nursery school. Every mother I know talks about that."

Bart Freundlich, writer/director

“The thing I’m looking forward to most―other than the Knicks rebuilding―is being able to sit outside at Bar Pitti and have lunch on a fall day with my kids. Also, I’ve seen clips of Freedomland, with two of my favorite actors―Sam Jackson and my wife [Julianne Moore] in it―and it’s amazing. It’s like a cross between an old-school seventies movie that was all about character and some kind of new thriller. I had also heard Rufus Wainright was doing something―I want to make a musical with him someday.”

Freundlich’s new film, Trust the Man, stars David Duchovny and premieres Sept. 12 at the Toronto Film Festival.

Freedomland is in theaters Dec. 23.
