When someone is truly talented, it can never be said too often.

I can't wait to see how her costumes will compare to those that were supplied by Ohrbach's
For their day the Ohrbach's stuff was very much in style. But somehow I suspect anything that Atwood designs will have us wondering what anyone ever saw in Ohrbach's clothes! Though because the film also has a costume buyer, it would seem that they'll also be using some store bought clothing. So, it'll be interesting to see which characters get Atwood's designs and which get the store bought. It'll also be interesting to see why they'll choose the clothes that they do because what's often not taken into account is that the style of clothing and the colors a character wears is an intricate part of their character makeup. It's not just because the clothing might look good on the actors portraying the characters or because the actors themselves might like the clothing. (For example, there's a whole section in the concordance for the '91 Series that goes into details of how/why certain characters wore specific colors and styles.)

Just a guess, but I am expecting/hoping for Johnny to speak more about DS now than he did while promoting The Tourist, just because the start of filming is getting closer now. Hope we'll get to hear some good tidbits from him!!
Considering how starved we are for any sort of tidbits, almost anything he might say will be welcome.
