Max Landis, son of Animal House director John Landis, wrote the screenplay for Chronicles, a movie about three high school students with superpowers.  To help drum up buzz for the flick, which came out this weekend, he released a short film called The Death and Return of Superman.  Don’t give a crap about the Man of Steel?  Elijah Wood, Mandy Moore, Simon Pegg, Ron Howard, and a few more recognizable faces are in it.

So even if former Garbage frontwoman-turned-sometime TV actress Shirley Manson's solo album is still stitched up in limbo somewhere, it's a relief to see her filling the interim with worthwhile side projects. She's sharing stylespace with Elijah Wood. The pair (and their eyewear) are the focal point of the Oliver Peoples Spring Resort 2010 Collection.

Elijah Wood, that is. The Fashion Week afternoon extravaganza for designer Rodarte drew the pale blue unflinching gaze of Frodo himself, who surveyed the scene at least long enough to bestow a smirk on a comely young thing assisting him through the festivities. Hit the jump for a tender hobbitty moment.
