G8 Summit Leader Letter Writing Awards
Fair Trade Petition Presented to the EU 2005

Fairtrade fashion designer People Tree has won the coveted fashion and accessories award, sponsored by Marie Claire, at the annual Observer Ethical Awards 2009.

People Tree founder Safia Minney (right, in red) collected the award at Wednesday night’s glitzy gathering from actor and Ethical Awards judge Colin Firth, who’s green profile is in the ascendant since he opened his ecological destination store, Eco, in London’s Chiswick with his wife and two friends.

Toronto stargazers may get a gimpse of handsome British leading man Colin Firth this fall.

In a phone interview with the Toronto Star last week, Firth said he hopes two of his films set for late-year release will be at the Toronto International Film Festival.

The films are Dorian Gray, the classic about a portrait that ages instead of its dissolute owner, with Firth’s Easy Virtue co-star Ben Barnes, and A Single Man, co-starring Julianne Moore and directed by Tom Ford.

A Single Man is based on the 1964 Christopher Isherwood novel about a day in the life of a gay middle-aged Englishman who must cope with the sudden loss of his lover.

how come I’ve missed posting that.

n The English Patient, Colin Firth got dumped by Kristin Scott Thomas, who had fallen in love with dashing soldier Ralph Fiennes. But in Easy Virtue, Firth gets his revenge, not only being married to Thomas, but spending most of the movie making jabs at her obsession with high society, fancy parties, and a way of life in rural England that was definitely dying out by the late 1920s.

Playing the grumpy man of the house who spends most of his time tinkering in the garage, Firth said he enjoyed being in the sidelines while the rest of the cast fluttered about the giant country house. But by the end of the film it becomes time for him to go front and center, dancing the tango with Larita (Jessica Biel), the impetuous new American daughter-in-law. Firth says at first he insisted they pick a body double for the dance, but in the end enjoyed it– “Tango’s a little easier on me than most.”
