By achoosyndrome “No! I’m Jodie Foster from the movie Taxi Driver.” “I’m a baby prostitute from the 70’s.” The problem is, I know nothing at all about Jodie Foster’s character in Taxi Driver besides the fact that she was a baby prostitute in the 1970’s. “Was your name Jodie?”

By Ray Davis Contact is a 1997 movie based on a book by Carl Sagan and starring Jodie Foster. It is one of my all-time favorite movies. Foster plays Ellie Arroway a highly-driven, highly rational astronomer searching for extraterrestrial life.

By bombeye Its pretty obvious that Zoe Kravitz is nothing short of a natural talent. You all may recall her mom Lisa Bonet from one of your all time favorite shows The Cosbys, and her dad  Lenny Kravtiz for being a musical flair. Zoe was born December 1, 1988 in New York :uhhh: (Jay-Z voice). It seems as thou...

Anthony Hopkins is a huge fan of fellow Brit Emily Blunt - placing her in the same acting league as double-Oscar winner Jodie Foster.

By dorothy snarker Some imaginary animated characters have all the luck. In last night’s episode of The Simpsons, pacifier-loving, speaking-adverse baby Maggie found her voice. And that voice was Jodie Foster (who also happens to be AfterEllen.com Hot 100 hottie No. 39). See what I was saying about lucky?

Jodie Foster would be great, too, but I still see her as Clarice Starling. That's terrible casting. Doesn't fit at all! A fan of "Kay Scarpetta" novels from the beginning, I just think this is a poor choice for the character of Kay. ...

By thelinster Here’s the story: Foster’s Prius was pulled over by cops from Beverly Hills for going 54 in a 35 mph zone. That could happen to anybody, right? But of all the cop cars in all the towns in the world, this one had to have a film crew for the truTV show Speeders riding along. Oops.

Nim's Island'' is a movie for kids who like to think and read and use their imagination, and for parents who may be tired of family fare that's nothing but a litany of cutesy pop-culture references. Not much is terribly new or challenging in this adaptation of Wendy Orr's novel. But Jodie Fost...
