14 DAY TRIAL // Many say that Jennifer Lawrence is rather overrated or, at the very least, overexposed but I still say that her take on the jaded, airheaded Rosalyn Rosenfeld in the critically acclaimed “American Hustle” is the best thing ever.
If you’ve seen the movie, you must recall a scene in which Rosalyn dusts the furniture while lip-synching and dancing to “Live and Let Die” by Paul McCartney & Wings.
As it turns out, the initial plan was to have a much longer scene of this type, this time set to Carlos Santana’s “Evil Ways” from 1969, included in the film. It was eventually discarded, but fans will find it on the Blu-ray of “American Hustle” that is coming out.
Until then, they will also find it embedded below.
Lawrence was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars 2014 for the role but she lost to Lupita Nyong’o from “12 Years a Slave.” The year before, Lawrence had won Best Actress for “Silver Linings Playbook” and, just two years earlier, she’d been nominated for Best Actress again, with “Winter’s Bone.”
After this year’s gala, Jennifer joked that she was happy she lost because she didn’t want people to get too tired of her too soon.
