Liam Neeson - The Grey is top movie for weekend box office (Big Hollywood)

Why Masculinity Matters: 59-Year-Old Liam Neeson Is Action’s Most Bankable Star

by Christian Toto


There’s nothing pretty about Liam Neeson.

The Irish actor sports a disheveled nose and an accent that sounds like it belongs in a pub where the bar stools date back to the Second World War. And when Neeson puts up his dukes on screen, there’s no “Matrix”-style effects to give him cover. It’s all loping jabs and hay makers.

It’s why audiences are responding to his latest action film, “The Grey.” The film came in first over the just-wrapped weekend, earning $20 million without any big stars beyond Neeson and no existing brand to bank on. Neeson stars as a depressed sharpshooter who must survive the elements, and a hungry pack of nearby wolves, when his plane goes down in freezing terrain.

Compare the box office results for “The Grey” to the opening weekend haul of Taylor Lautner’s “Abduction” from late last year:

“The Grey” – $20 million

“Abduction” – $10.9 million

Lautner’s got Neeson by 40-odd years, and you just know Neeson doesn’t have six-pack abs like Mr. “Twilight.” Audiences didn’t care. They responded to the way Neeson goes about his business on screen. It’s never smooth or calculated, but Neeson’s characters settle scores and survive in a way that hearkens back to how male movie stars used to behave on screen.

He’s a man’s man, and that makes him a rarity in today’s Hollywood.

Robert Pattinson planned ‘Twilight’ premiere walk out to avoid sex scenes

Robert Pattinson planned to walk out of the premiere of the latest “Twilight” movie on Monday so he wouldn’t have to sit through the film’s sex scenes.

The British actor joined his co-stars Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart to walk the black carpet at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles for the premiere of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1.”
However, Pattinson told reporters he planned to leave the screening early to avoid embarrassment over the saucy scenes he filmed with Stewart.

When asked how he would react to first public showing of the footage, Pattinson told “Access Hollywood,” “I’ll probably have left.”

Fans of the vampire franchise began camping outside the venue last week to secure their spots for the big night, and the author of the books behind the movie series, Stephenie Meyer, showed her support by handing out signed copies of her Breaking Dawn novel to devotees ahead of the premiere.

Meyer revealed she was impressed by the friendliness of fans at the campsite, gushing, “They’re really kind to each other, which I love, and all very excited, and looking pretty good for having slept on the street.”

The stars of the film were also amazed by the devotion of the campers, with Lautner insisting he couldn’t bring himself to sleep on the street – not even for a meeting with his favorite football player, Tom Brady.

He says, “Honestly, no (I couldn’t do it). The closest thing I would do it for is for my favorite sports team or my favorite athlete. I would not camp out a week. Tom Brady – you’re not worth it. I’m sorry! I love you, though.”
