The Rich Man’s Poor Wife

This summer, Cate Blanchett is gonna let her neurotic flag fly thanks to Woody Allen.

The Oscar winners have teamed up for Blue Jasmine, the story of a Ruth Madoff-esque New York City wife left in ruin after her scheme-running husband (Alec Baldwin) is arrested for fraud.

Disgraced and, worse, broke, Jasmine moves from the Big Apple to San Francisco to find solace in the company of her sister (Sally Hawkins), a magnet for – ew! – blue collar kinda guys.

OMG, people: Blanchett, in an Allen film.

Down in the dumbs.

Showcasing that simmering ferocity of hers (check her out in the film’s trailer).

So there.
