Just prior to receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame this past Friday, Oscar-winning actress and screenwriter Emma Thompson discussed her impressive career in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter. And while the candid nature of the discussion is nothing new, Thompson's unfiltered thoughts on the subject of revered Hollywood icon Audrey Hepburn seem destined to ruffle the feathers of movie fans everywhere.

The new video for Eminem's Love the Way You Lie single debuted last night, and the clip is already generating attention and heated discussion for its images of a couple trapped in an abusive relationship.
