It's pronounced Coriol-Anus

Having not actually seen Ralph Fiennes modern adaptation of Shakespeare's Coriolanus we couldn't possibly comment on whether it's any good or not. Looking at the trailer we'd agree with one YouTube commenter who said it looked like we finally get to see Voldemort fight Leonidas. Either way, the book of the film certainly seems to have been quite popular.

The premiere in New York, on the other hand, is something that we can comment on. Just look at those shoes, that purse, that hair. Who made her dress? Doesn't she have surprisingly fat ankles? She must be pregnant, but with whose baby? AND THAT'S JUST RALPH! No, we're only joking, he's a man and couldn't have a baby.

Anyway, alongside Ralph we had Jessica Chastain, Vanessa Redgrave, Patti Smith (?), James Earl Jones (Darth Vader's voice), Susan Sarandon, Judd Hirsch and Trudie Styler. But who actually styled her? A ha ha, what a clever joke. But seriously, we have no idea. 

Where's Gerard Butler by the way? He must have dined elsewhere, after all, Spartans never retreat. Spartans never surrender. Spartans never turn up to film premieres.
