I'd rather have seen someone else being Jack!!!

While it is quite a lovely picture it's not as cool as my favorite Leibovitz picture of Scarlett Johanson as Cinderella.

I don't know what it was about that particular portrait by Leibovitz, but it's head and shoulders above the others. Maybe a happy accident with photoshop chemistry? I don't know. But that Cinderella image was simply striking: <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/culturepicturegalleries/8359742/Disney-Dream-Portraits-by-Annie-Leibovitz.html?image=4" target="_blank">http://www.telegraph.co.uk/cul...?image=4</a>
Originally Posted By Mickeymouseclub Yes I "knew" what was in her hand and doubt that I would have been admined over that...it is a question about the positioning that I think was weird.He being feminine and she being masculine in that photo would not bother me except for it being by that photographer and the claim to fame... Scarlet J. as Cinderella - As if! Enough of that please no more. It was fun at first and then nevermore. I guess I just won't look in the future because I am sure more will be planned.
