The Bearded Trio

Laura Dern has revealed Steven Spielberg told her to avoid plastic surgery on her face.  Dern said she was given the advice when she was 23 and right before a close-up shot for the Spielberg directed, Jurassic Park. "When I was 23, right before a close-up on 'Jurassic Park', Spielberg said to me, 'People will tell you what you could do to your face years from now. Don't you ever touch your face.' Laura Dern revealed the story during an interview for Vulture  and adds that she is grateful for the advice from the director. "He was saying, 'Your face is perfect, it's female, it's emotional'. I am determined to be human in my acting, and when you own your power and your womanhood, you grow into your beauty. Your face finds you."

As their stories intersect in subtle but powerful ways, a portrait emerges of flawed, but st...

Actress Laura Dern is on the road promoting her new movie, Wild , but that doesn't mean that the discussion doesn't turn toward the work she's done in the past - for example, Jurassic Park. Dern played Dr. Ellie Sattler in the groundbreaking 1993 film directed by Steven Spielberg, and she has wonderful things to say about the opportunity to work on what had the spirit of an independent film, but also happened to be the first major CGI film at that time. She shared a particular memory that involved the actors having a difficult time with a scene, and the solution Spielberg implemented to assist them: I remember we were all standing in a row, and this crane of, like, chewed up metal comes up, and we're supposed to realize what the T-rex can do and all have this look to the side when we hear a sound. And we did a take and then we cut and Steven's like, "You guys were all looking different directions." We said, "Steven, we're suppose...
