the black gown is way too heavy for her. It makes her look old.
The Hair&makeup and the Erdem dress are amazing.

Reviews are out for Noah.. While she has some not-so-positive reviews, most have been positive.. Vanity Fair has a whole article on her performance:

Emma Watson Leaves Hermione Behind With Her Mammoth Noah Performance

Introducing Noah at the New York City premiere Wednesday night, Darren Aronofsky promised the audience would see Emma Watson as they never had before. About an hour into the massive Bible epic, when Watson’s character, Ila, is healed by Methuselah (Anthony Hopkins) and sent into a fit of lust, that seemed like a massive understatement. Hermione in filthy robes, copulating on the floor of a forest? What witchcraft is this!

But Watson isn’t another child star getting down and dirty for the sake of being seen as a grown-up, as she’s already proven with an impeccable string of roles in the post-Potter years. What’s different in Noah is that Watson gives the kind of mammoth, earth-rattling performance that grown-up careers are built on. In a cast full of heavyweights doing capital-A acting, including Oscar-winners Jennifer Connelly and Russell Crowe as her parents-in-law, Watson anchors the film’s rawest emotional scenes. In a movie that contains the actual, literal word of God, Watson is handed the stirring final monologue. (Spoiler alert: they survive the flood. Humanity re-populates.) Sitting on an Icelandic beach with Russell Crowe, her hair wild and eyes burning, Watson is quiet but ferocious. In Noah, we watch a lot of people endure unbearable things; with Watson, we actually feel it.

Watson’s role is, in some ways, the typical long-suffering wife, a woman stuck in a rough and patriarchal society and, eventually, on a boat with a father (Crowe’s Noah) who is increasingly unhinged. Ila was orphaned and raised as Noah’s daughter, but she’s also taken up with adoptive brother Shem by the time the ark had neared completion. (Not a lot of options in those antediluvian days.) When her barrenness is cured by Methuselah and Ila becomes pregnant, it’s in direct contradiction to what Noah now believes is God’s plan: for humanity to die off the earth entirely.

Watson has to do a lot of crying in the role, from fights with her crazy father-in-law to a brutal childbirth scene. Actors are often given too much credit for indulging in huge emotions, but it’s not Watson’s tears that are impressive; it’s where they get her. Having survived the ordeal and lived to see the world reborn, Ila emerges as the toughest among a remarkably hardy group of people. The movie is still about its title character and his conversations with God, but when Noah is overcome by doubt and possible madness, Ila takes over the job of piecing the world together again. The girl Noah once considered a disposable burden has become the only possible guide toward the future.

That kind of reversal is common in many stories—the meek shall inherit the earth, after all—but it comes as a surprise in a giant movie called Noah; even our modern conflicted antiheroes, from Batman to Walter White, tend to get the last word in their own sagas. Aronofsky and his co-writer, Ari Handel, structured the story that makes Ila a heroine, but Watson elevates it, becoming the film’s moral anchor so elegantly we barely notice it happening. It’s a big, sometimes broadly defined performance—all that crying!—but Watson finds the smallest details to make Ila a person, not an idea. No easy feat in a story that’s one of the original myths.

Young heroines generally come in stories explicitly built around them—Katniss, Tris, Lyra, Meg Murry, Ramona Quimby, etc. One of the rare exceptions, it turns out, is Harry Potter’s Hermione. As a child, Watson was precocious and engaging, but it was hard to know if that steely, brainy appeal would translate into adulthood. In Noah, Watson steps confidently from the floodwaters into full-fledged movie stardom.

The hair and makeup and jewelry is flawless in the Oscar gown, and the back view is gorg.

WOW!! Love the VF article ! So proud! Go Emma!

 

[YoninahAliza]

Ooohh wow, that Vanity Fair article has sold me on seeing the movie at some point. Was a bit unsure about it because the trailers don't sell it for me but glad to hear that Emma's a pivotal character in the film.

I love the jewelry she´s wearing with that OTR dress!

 

[SallyAlbright]

I saw Noah last night, she really is great in it! The movie itself has some problems, but Emma is not one of them I was proud of her, she really carries the most emotional part of the film (and of course looks stunning!)

With her biblical-themed film "Noah" continuing to take over the box office, Emma Watson garnered herself a little added exposure by covering the April 2014 issue of ELLE Australia magazine.

While striking a few poses for the Carter Smith-shot spread, the former "Harry Potter" beauty opened up about everything from her relationships with non-celebrities to her struggles with finding more adult roles.
"I don't date people who are famous," Miss Watson explained. "I don't think it's fair that, all of a sudden, intimate details of their personal life are public as a direct result of me. I wish I could protect them."

Also discussing her acting career, Emma revealed she has hard time getting mature roles. "In my downtime, I don't sex myself up much. Sometimes I had a hard time convincing directors that I can play more adult roles."

In regards to breaking away from her good girl reputation, the 23-year-old actress admitted she recently broke into a hotel pool at 3 a.m. "My friends turned around and basically I was gone. The next thing they saw was me 7 feet up in the air scaling the fence."

"I shouldn't be able to get away with what I'm getting away with," she added.

...and some HQs of her in the Erdem dress. I'm definitely getting some Keira Knightley vibes from this look.

Also the Noah London premiere is happening soon.

I think she and Keira have a lot in common. Neither are too sexed-up, they have the same coloring, and most importantly they both have great brows.

Thanks for sharing, Lolasvelt!

I've been watching the the livestream and I definitely prefer this one to the dress she wore to the New York premiere. Still, the J. Mendel jumpsuit rules all.

Emma Watson attends the UK Premiere of 'Noah' at Odeon Leicester Square on March 31, 2014 in London, England.
