[edit] Birth place?

Although most sources seem to say she was born in North Carolina, CBS News says she was born in Boston [1], and so does Yahoo Movies [2], both very reliable sources. Does anyone know for sure? I've changed it to Boston for the moment. JackO'Lantern 18:43, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Internet Movie Data Base also indicates her birthplace is Fayetteville, NC; Fort Bragg. Considering her father's military career, I would suspect the Fort Bragg is correct!

IMDB is almost never reliable. They are somewhat reliable for old movie credits, but not reliable at all when it comes to personal info. Her parents moved around a lot, that's why I think the confusion is out there. I would trust CBS News, especially with Yahoo! Movies confirming that (both are more reliable than the IMDB, that's for sure)JackO'Lantern 20:16, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

On several occasions, I have heard Ft. Bragg, NC. This can be found easily by pulling the military records of her father. Boston is probably the work of an agent, since it sounds more artsy.

It is possible that her father was at Ft. Bragg when she was born in Boston and people just assumed that she was born in Ft. Bragg Kneazle kid (talk) 19:08, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Atheism?

I do not think that the atheist category should be used here. The only source for it is [www.celebatheists.com]. The website is very unreliable, is very POV-ed to the atheist viewpoint. It also has many miscategorized entries already. It has Ray Romano as an atheist, when he is known to be a devout Catholic, and has Einstein as an atheist, when he is known to have been a pantheistic Jew. Their quote from Ray Romano is clearly just a joking quote, with God saying something along the lines of "Yes, I do exist." They list Einstein using a quote where he actually says that he does think God exists. Moore's only quote was also clearly a joking quote and is along the lines of Romano's. Why anyone takes CelebAtheists seriously is beyond me, but it shouldn't be used as a reference. Dr. Hannibal Lecter 21:39, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Often noted for her striking red hair"

"Often noted for her striking red hair" - is that really the most important thing about Julianne Moore, that it needs to be stated in the introduction? Even more important than her four Oscar nominations apparently. "Bruce Willis, often noted for his striking bald head"...? No. 172.200.38.27 18:46, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Does the collar match the cuffs? I will have to watch boogie nights again. 76.186.118.246 (talk) 05:05, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
