FEATURES

David Sutcliffe: Macho Man
As Christopher, Rory Gilmore's charming but fly-by-night, absentee dad on the hit WB series Gilmore Girls, David Sutcliffe may not be around much (his role is recurring), but he sure knows how to make an impression. "It's especially nice because the fans are so hardcore," says the Gilmore guy, who returns for half a dozen episodes this season. "Young women really relate to Rory, so when they meet me, they're crying, they're shaking, they're freaked out. 'Why weren't you at her graduation?!'"

Marlon Brando: No Man Is An Island (But Brando Tried)
Marlon Brando, who died in July, was arguably the greatest actor of his generation, but as a man he was, well, different. Lawrence Grobel's journal of the 10 days he spent catching flies and counting grains of sand with Brandon on his private island in Tahiti was first published in Movieline in 1991.

Coco Chanel: The Importance of Being Coco
From humble birth to the heights of Parisian society, Coco Chanel's life was a wild ride. But it was much more than one big party. The timeless style she created continues to influence fashion and the way women dress even today.

Jessalyn Gilsig: Sexy Lady
JESSALYN GILSIG

Rose Byrne: Prim Rose
Not long after coming to Hollywood, Aussie actress Rose Byrne landed in the arms of Brad Pitt in Troy. Now she's being chased by Josh Hartnett in Wicker Park. So much for slow stars.

Drea de Matteo: Down Town Girl
Streetwise Drea de Matteo goes from being a Mafia girlfriend in The Sopranos (and we all know how that ended) to a hairdresser in the new Friends spinoff Joey. But don't expect the music-loving scenester to mellow. No ****ing way.
