Natalie Portman looks good in blue. Specifically, the short blue dress she wore to the New York City screening of her new film, "Brothers", directed by Jim Sheridan.
The red carpet outside the SVA Theater was walked by a cavalacade of celebrities, including The Edge, Emma Roberts, Terrence Howard, and Portman's co-star Tobey Maguirre. Noticeably absent was the star of the film, Jake Gyllenhall, although sources place him busy filming his next flick, "Love and Other Drugs", assuming the mantle of a Viagra-peddler.
"Brothers" is remake of an award-winning Danish film, examining the return of a soldier from war who finds his brother and wife have become very close in his absence... As awards season dawns upon us, there is quite a bit of buzz around this film, with many people expecting Oscar nods for Portman, Gyllenhall and possible director Sheridan as well.
After the screening, everyone headed over to Abe And Arthur's for the afterparty, where guests such as Terrance Howard, Olivia Palermo and Johannes Huebl, Rachel Roy, Harvey Weinstein, Georgina Chapman, Andrew Saffir, Daniel Benedict, Fern Mallis, and Agyness Deyn enjoyed hors d'oeuvres and a buffet-style dinner.

Natalie Portman looks amazing in that gown. She's so lucky...Jake Gyllenhall and Tobey Maguire are probably the hottest co-stars ever!

I saw that Letterman episode too. I checked out the movie last weekend, and David Letterman was not exaggerating. It was definitely one of the best films I'VE seen in a while. Tobey blew me away with his crazed soldier act. I bet he'll win an oscar.

Portman somehow did it! She pulled off the role of the average "average mom" in "Brothers". She may have really proven her diversity as an actress in this one!

Yeah Nat being far from "average" did do well as a young military Mama ... She was great in this. She's consistently progressing in each role as a better and more dynamic actress. She IS the next Audrey Hepburn in my opinion.
