This picture makes me happy. I really wish Courtney Love and Edward Norton could’ve worked it out. They made a great couple.
On her “Behind the Music,” Love said that Edward was into “character building” and that they did a lot of it while they were together. I always loved that sound bite.
Love has done a lot of things that I don’t understand or agree with and find deplorable, but I’m fascinated by her and her music. I think she’s a great actress — this post was spurred by a viewing of “The People Vs. Larry Flynt” — and I find her compelling when clean and sober. Plus, Michael Stipe and Gwyneth Paltrow have both praised Love’s intellect, with Stipe saying that Love’s one of the smartest people he knows.
Norton, well, he’s just gorgeous and the most brutally underrated actor of his generation. Between “The People Vs. Larry Flynt,” “Primal Fear,” “25th Hour” and “American History X,” it is near criminal that he doesn’t have an Oscar.
I wonder how differently things would’ve turned out for Frances Bean had Edward Norton been her stepfather.
Ed Norton and Courtney Love (with Frances Cobain)
Why didn’t I know these two dated for years?? Ahhhh seriously?
This changes everything.

Correction re: my previous apocalyptic post, straight from the songwriter (and my idol):
