Natalie Portman and her husband Benjamin Millepied were dressed to the nines on Sunday when they represented his film Carmen for its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. The 41-year-old Oscar winner had all eyes on her thanks to her glowing gold-and-silver ensemble, while her husband, 45, looked dapper in a suit as they led the other stars at the premiere. Carmen, which is based on both the musical and the opera of the same name, marks the French dancer and choreographer's directorial debut.
Melissa Barrera, of In The Heights fame, stars as the title character, who goes on a journey from Mexican deserts to Los Angeles. Natalie's semi-sheer outfit featured delicate gold-and-silver embroidery in hypnotizing designs. Her short-sleeve blouse was belted around her midriff with a slim rope, and the top also featured an upturned collar.
Her voluminous skirt reached nearly down to the ground, revealing a hint of her shiny open-toe heels. The Black Swan actress wore her brunette hair parted down the middle and tied back in a bun, which showcased her impeccably made-up face and smoky eyes. Benjamin, who has been married to the actress since 2012, went tie-free and sported a classic black suit.
The Mexican-born actress Melissa Barrera stood out in a skimpy black ensemble with a ruffled crop top that showcased her toned midriff and featured a slim bow tied over her chest. She paired it with a black miniskirt, but the intriguing look was enlivened by a voluminous black tulle train following behind her. The Scream actress completed her look by towering in a set of black platform heels.

EXCLUSIVE: This morning in Toronto, writer-director Allen Hughes and FX unveil the first of a five-part docuseries Dear Mama. This is an epic exploration of the life of hip-hop icon Tupac Shakur and his late mom, Afeni Shakur, the former Black Panthers member. It is Hughes’ first trip back to TIFF since he and brother Albert came to unveil their Johnny Depp pic From Hell, only to see that title become all too apt when, on their media day 21 years ago, everything got canceled when two hijacked planes crashed into and took down the Twin Towers. At the behest of the estate of the Shakur family, Hughes, who aside from films like The Book of Eli directed the acclaimed docuseries The Defiant Ones on Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine, spent years diving deep into the mythology of Tupac to answer why his art endures so long after he was shot dead at age 25. Much as he would have preferred to avoid it, Hughes had to confront his own provocative history with Tupac. After the Hughes Brothers hired Tupac for a supporting role in Menace II Society, they fired Shakur over disagreements about the part he wanted to play. Later, the hip-hop artist and his pals crossed paths with Hughes and his co-director Albert, and beat them badly enough that it led to a criminal conviction on Shakur for assault and battery., Here, Hughes discusses all, including the spiritual connection between Tupac and Marvin Gaye, whose life Allen Hughes takes on next in a narrative film for Warner Bros and Motown Records.

For questionable reasons, some very talented people got it into their heads that it would be a great idea to redress Georges Bizet’s classic 1875 musical Carmen for the big screen by throwing out everything—the setting, the era and, most of all, the music—and replacing it with a misguided attempt at relevance by setting it on the contemporary U.S. and Mexican border.
