This Summer's hit from Pixar is as tear-jerking as it is funny and light, and equally entertaining for kids and adults.

Buzz Interview With the Cast of Precious, Part 2: Lee Daniels
Last week I shared with you my interview with Precious actress Paula Patton, but now it's time to hear from the director himself, Lee Daniels. I asked the Sundance-award winner — the film took home the Audience Award and Grand Jury Prize — how it feels to hear Oscar buzz, and what it's like when Oprah is on your speed dial. Plus, he opened up to me about how the movie helped him overcome from his own dark past.
The CW's Fall Schedule: Vampires, Models, and LA Singles
The CW wrapped up network Upfront week this morning by presenting its schedule for Fall 2009. And it's about what was expected, especially after the first photos leaked out yesterday: the three new series in the Fall lineup are Vampire Diaries, the Melrose Place reboot, and The Beautiful Life.
In terms of scheduling, Melrose will air on Tuesdays after 90210 (remake city!), while Beautiful Life gets the post-America's Next Top Model slot on Wednesdays (model city!).
Do You Want to See Tyra Banks Act?
Tyra Banks is heading to the Upper East Side, booking a guest-starring gig on the fourth episode of the season. And the fierce America's Next Top Model hostess isn't playing herself: She'll play an actress who co-stars in a movie alongside Hilary Duff's NYU student/movie star and will appear in the fourth episode of the season.
Though Tyra's on TV on a daily basis, it's been a long time since she had a straight-up acting gig.
The Ugly Truth — See It or Skip it?
The Ugly Truth is a romantic comedy starring Katherine Heigl as a "romantically challenged" morning show producer and Gerard Butler as a "chauvinistic" correspondent, who battle about the differences between men and women. This time last year we saw Gerard fliming scenes Stateside, and earlier this month we saw the Scot fooling around with newly redhead Katherine at the LA premiere. It had a strong opening in the States over the weekend, but my girl Buzz was less than impressed.
Tyler Perry Turns Act of Racism Into Trip For Inner City Kids
It's a shame when narrow minded people make the world an ugly place for children. Earlier this month, a private Philadelphia swim club was accused of discriminating against youngsters from an inner-city Summer camp who paid to swim at the facility. After some racist comments were made by pool patrons, the camp's check was returned and the 65 participants were told they were no longer welcome there.
