UConn James Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 "No Strings Attached" might not be three-quarters bad.... Along with "The Other Woman" coming out later this year (and to my eyes, might get her two Oscar nods in a row) and "Black Swan," Natalie Portman is starting to come into her own as an actress.
