You look at those characters [in The Duchess] — Georgiana and Bess — and they're hugely trying to outmanoeuvre each other, but I think it's also possible for intense love affairs to happen between women — not necessarily sexual, but things can obviously take a sexual turn. Women do get obsessed with other women — whether they love them or hate them, and I think that line is very easy to cross." — Keira Knightley [Guardian]

Our pick for seriously cool chick of the...

Jennifer — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 14:45:00 EDT

Our pick for seriously cool chick of the day is French actress Emmanuelle Beart, who says of her infamous romp 3 years ago in the nude on a beach — the photos of which made for the biggest selling issue of French Elle of all time: "We'd just arrived for a beauty shoot, it was 5am and I desperately needed a swim. The photographer was a friend, and she asked if I'd mind if she took a few photos. When I saw them, it was me who suggested they use those. It was a riposte to all those skinny, semi-anorexic adolescents that women's magazines inflict on us; it was to say, 'Look, I'm 40, this is my body, this is my plenitude, these are my curves, I like them and I'm proud of them.' It's true, I feel better in my body now than when I was 20. Why not?" [Guardian]
