Leonardo DiCaprio Is Making Out And Dodging Explosions In Paris
Protecting Ellen Page from flying debris and making out with Marion Cotillard is all in a week’s work for Leonardo DiCaprio. Leo, Ellen and Marion are all in Paris this week filming the contemporary Sci-Fi thriller Inception, which is being directed by The Dark Knight’s Christopher Nolan. Very little is known about the film except that it takes place in "the architecture of the mind," whatever that means.
What we do know for sure is that Leo and Ellen filmed at Cafe Debussy and near the Pont de Bir-Hakeim on the Seine yesterday. This isn't the first time on the big screen for the bridge; it was also featured in National Treasure 2, Munich and Last Tango in Paris.
Leo invited a few family members along on the Paris trip, including his mother who seemed to be doting on her famous son. We wouldn’t be surprised if Leo put his family up at the ultra lux Four Seasons George V while they're visiting him in Paris. Right now, the hotel is offering a special Bed and Breakfast Package that includes a full American breakfast daily for up to two adults at the hotel’s La Galerie, Le Cinq restaurant or through In-Room Dining for $1170.00 a night. For that kind of money, you too could probably also be making out with Marion Cotillard.

Movie Set Travel: Smart People
If you were a "Juno" fan, you'll enjoy this week's pick. "Smart People" brings Sarah Jessica Parker, Ellen Page, Dennis Quaid and Thomas Hayden Church to the screen as a dysfunctional family that gets a new lease on life.
Dennis Quaid is a widowed professor whose adopted brother Chuck (Church) returns to his life around the same time he meets SJP, a doctor. We hear there's all sorts of wry humor and Ellen Page plays a bit of her Juno role again--but we're OK with that.
The film was shot entirely in Pittsburgh. In that vein we invite you to check out some cool things in the Smoky City:
Where To Stay: The Priory This European style hotel on the North Shore features charming rooms furnished in reproduction pieces, as well as cozy touches like a sitting room for evening wine and an outdoor courtyard. It's convenient too, with free WiFi and daily shuttle service to downtown.

Oscars Travel: Who's Going To Be Doing It?
The Oscar nominations for this year have just arrived, and we're digging through to figure out which stars you'll see at the Kodak Theatre on February 24--provided they care to cross the WGA picket line. George Clooney will leave his Italian palazzo to represent legal thriller "Michael Clayton"; Ellen Page will go south of the border for "Juno," Javier Bardem will fly over the Atlantic for "No Country for Old Men" (he's from Spain, didn't you know?) and Daniel Day-Lewis will come out of his secret underground lair in support of "There Will Be Blood."
If you're thinking about going to the Oscars this year, and don't mind that they may be starless, get your tickets now! Need help? The UK Times has an interesting article about getting tickets. (Hint: It's hard.)

Ellen Page Delivered From Sundance
"Juno" star Ellen Page pauses to reflect next to her carry-on bags at LAX, on a flight back to her native Canada. Looks like this year's It Girl is skipping the Sundance Film Festival, where she'll be on screen as the daughter of a divorced teacher (Dennis Quaid) who is falling for once of his former students (Sarah Jessica Parker) in the film "Smart People."
We didn't notice it in the movie, but Juno and her ironic pals live in Minnesota. Right now you can get round-trip tickets from LAX to Minneapolis-St. Paul for just $199 on Northwest... in case you're finding it difficult to be a hipster in the eternal sunshine. Surely, Page's plaid shirt would fit in better in the north country.
