I think Elena Bonham Carter is pretty amazing as an actress and she has a very peculiar (borderline weird) personal style, which could have the potential for something really interesting. I recall she was the Yardley face for cosmetics for some time (a whiiiiiile back), so it's not like she's a stranger in "the world of the pretty" (if we classifyPerfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-27885752769641841882009-07-26T08:26:09.470+01:002009-07-26T08:26:09.470+01:00L,

It's a mystery how she has wrecked her life, or rather how her life has been feeding the tabloids so much. Lots of other people in the creative fields have some similar problems but they seem less on the public eye.
