Kevin Bacon My One and Only


Just to clear this up, the title of this doesn't mean I have a man-crush on Kevin Bacon, so just get that thought out of your head right now before I kick you in the junk. My One and Only is Kevin Bacon's new movie, where he stars opposite Renee Zellweger and plays her cheating husband. Sounds kinda heavy, right? The flick is being promoted as a comedy though. Kevin set the record straight on why it's actually a funny flick and not a teary-eyed terror.

Well, you know, Renée's hilarious, and her character has this kind of unflinching optimism in light of all the trials and tribulations that she's going through. And to see her go through man after man, in the search for some kind of a replacement, or some kind of a man in her life - mostly because she needs the money - is just a funny process. Also, the kids are great. It's kind of a relationship between mother and her two sons that you don't often see.

The only reason Renee is hilarious is because it looks like she's holding in a fart any time she smiles for a picture.
