Jessica Biel steals the show as glamourous and intelligent Larita in
Easy Virtue, a 1920s romantic comedy based on Noel Coward's play. After a whirlwind romance in America, Larita has married young earnest John (Ben Barnes), and when the couple arrive at the Whittakers' stately country house it's time for Larita to face her in-laws. Mrs Whittaker (Kristin Scott Thomas) is certainly not impressed to have an American for a daughter-in-law, while a withdrawn Mr Whittaker (Colin Firth) does his best to keep out of the way.
Following their
appearance at the Rome Film Festival, Jessica Biel and Ben Barnes were joined by Colin Firth and their other costars Kris Marshall, Charlotte Riley and Kimberley Nixon for the gala screening of Easy Virtue at the
London Film Festival last night. Director Stephan Elliot even brought the chihuahua along for the ride! As well as appearing on our screens from 7 November, Jessica is currently on our newsstands too
on the cover of Marie Claire, where she says she feels "sort of ridiculous" posing for photographers.
Jessica Biel dressed up for the
second night in a row, this time for a screening of
Easy Virtue at the
London Film Festival last night. She got more creative with her hair and makeup and apparently her appearance isn't something Jessica takes lightly. In the December issue of British Marie Claire, Jessica opens up about aging, plastic surgery as well as marriage and kids.

Jessica Biel took to the red carpet at the
Rome Film Festival yesterday going from her businesswoman press conference look before a glamorous wardrobe change. Jessica didn't bother to do much with her hair or makeup, but she let the dress do the talking at the premiere of
Easy Virtue with her costar Ben Barnes. This isn't the first time Jessica has visited Italy this Fall — she and JT
had a romantic vacation in the city, which got people talking about wedding bells around the corner.
Jessica Biel walked the red carpet in Rome with costar Ben Barnes yesterday, ahead of their appearance on our shores this evening for the UK premiere of Easy Virtue at the
London Film Festival. The pair also joined the director of the film for a press conference earlier in the day, with Jess showing us how to do smart chic as well as gorgeous glamour. As there was no sign of her usual
companion when in Rome, Justin Timberlake, I'm not holding my breath that he'll be visiting us either, but Ben will surely bring his manjoyment factor to London.

Families Are Kooky! Previews For Smother and Easy Virtue These two movies might take place in completely different countries and time periods, but the Monster-in-Law/Meet the Parents/isn't-family-wacky overtones are the same. If there's anything to take away from the trailers for Smother and Easy Virtue it's "beware the in-laws!"

We've been
keeping an eye on
Easy Virtue for a while now, seeing as it's Jessica Biel's (as a bright blonde?) first big leading lady role in a comedy — a British comedy that takes place in the 1920s, no less.
Jessica Biel was still very blond on the set of
Easy Virtue in England this week. Back in the states there were rumors that Justin Timberlake was
getting very close to Kate Hudson. This isn't the first time we've heard about
his wandering eye.
Jessica Biel showed off those pearly whites on the set of
Easy Virtue in the UK yesterday. Biel's working a brand new blond 'do under that cute hat. In the romantic comedy, Jessica plays an American divorcée who has to face her new-in laws after marrying an Englishman on a whim.
