Gwyneth Paltrow: Mum's the Word

She worked with Jude Law for the first time in the acclaimed 1999 film The Talented Mr. Ripley, playing his character's girlfriend, Marge. After some unmemorable films (Shallow Hal, Duets and View from the Top, to name a few) and some memorable ones (like The Royal Tenenbaums and Sylvia), Gwyneth reunited with Jude for this fall's groundbreaking Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.

In Sky Captain, Gwyneth plays reporter Polly Perkins to Jude's aviator hero Joe Sullivan. Joe and Polly, who have a romantic history, are thrown back together in a quest to investigate the mysterious disappearance of noted scientists around the world. The resulting bickering between the former lovers creates a dynamic that's both comedic and sexually charged. It's an old-fashioned love story made all the better by backdrops reminiscent of the golden age of 1930s cinema.

Offscreen, Jude and Gwyneth have a mutual admiration society. He says of her, "She's so much fun, you know? She's got incredible humor, incredible tolerance and an incredible natural intuition." And the mere mention of Jude's name causes Gwyneth's face to light up as she recalls working with him?
