20h 9min, may 16, 2011 y - THE SLATE Playboy Bunny Amber Heard Responds to Maureen Dowd
Description:
Making mischief at the NBC upfronts.She found Dowd’s reasoning rather confused. “What’s the problem with being sexy?” she asked, perhaps unconsciously echoing Nigel Tufnel.
“Why is it subservient?” she continued. Amber is clearly a New Style Girl, post-feminist. She called out Gloria Steinem by name. Then she continued talking about Pilates and such with a reporter from Life & Style: “There’s nothing like a corset-waist cincher to make you want to diet!” The featured clips of The Playboy Club were too slight to indicate the quality of her work on the series, but I will observe that in The Informers, an adaptation of the Bret Easton Ellis book, she demonstrates memorable talents for drugged-out writhing, zombielike prissing, and topless sunbathing in a spirit of apocalyptic anomie.
