MARRIED LIFE RELEASED ON DVD FROM MGM and TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX HOME ENTERTAINMENT MONDAY 26 JANUARY 2009
“This stylish 1940s drama is lush and elegant. An arresting, thoughtful film”
Sunday Mirror
Starring Pierce Brosnan, Chris Cooper and Rachel McAdams, Married Life is a dramatic comedy set in the 1940s about the irresistible power and utter madness of love. Married Life is a beautifully shot, stylish and high quality drama, headed by a bevy of critically acclaimed actors, that will transport you back to the 40’s – and into a troubled marriage. The DVD is packed with some compelling special features including audio commentary from the director and three alternate endings. Married Life is released to buy on DVD on 26 January from MGM and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment
Harry Allen (Chris Cooper – Capote, The Kingdom), a successful man in his fifties, decides he must kill his wife Pat (Patricia Clarkson – Good Night and Good Luck, Far From Heaven) because he loves her too much to put her through the humiliation of a divorce. He has fallen in love with a much younger woman called Kay (Rachel McAdams -The Family Stone, The Notebook) and shares his secret affair with his best friend Richard Langley (Pierce Brosnan – Mamma Mia, James Bond). He asks Richard to visit Kay so he can keep her company as his job is very demanding on his time. However, Richard falls in love at first sight with Kay and finds himself willing to do anything to win her over.
As Harry implements his awkward plans to murder his wife, the other characters are occupied with their own deceptions and passions, making this the perfect film noir domestic drama in every way – from the chrome and hardwood, to the faintly cigarette-stained cinematography. Don’t miss the opportunity to get your hands on this immensely moving drama when it’s released to DVD on 26 January 2009 from MGM and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.

Application
Daytime
After cleansing the face, apply Facial Treatment Essence by pressing into the skin with the
palms. Then place one pump of LXP Serum onto the palms and spread it by pressing with both of your hands while warming the product slightly.
After smoothing over the entire face let it blend into the skin by pressing the product in with
the palms. Envelop the face with the entire palms.
Nightime
Take a half pump of the product and apply where needed to areas where the skin feels dry. Apply a pearl sized amount of LXP Moist Softening Serum onto the palm of both hands and massage from the center out. More product may be applied in the evening to enhance the moisturizing and softening benefits throughout the night.
What Girlie Gossip Thought…
With the credit crunch affecting us all, it’s getting harder to justify those luxury purchases that we allow ourselves to make on skincare, anti ageing products and makeup. The main thing to remember though ladies is to be selective when choosing the brands you buy, and reduce the products that just don’t make the cut! We would highly recommend SK-II LXP Moist Softening Serum as one of your top ‘Treat Yourself’ products for 2009. It is a Harrods exclusive and is a real luxury treat for your skin. You don’t need to use much at a time, making it long lasting and cost effective, despite the original price tag.
