Tom Cruise
wasn't the only one who
skipped the red carpet last night,
Fool's Gold costars Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey presented an award and stopped by the press room but didn't do the outside posing. They didn't have awards to show off, of course, but the night's big winners did. Tina Fey looked a little uncomfortable with her mini actor (so missing Alec Baldwin, boo) while Edie Falco proudly showed off her double fisting skills.

The
Emmys are over but there are still so many party pictures we just had to combine the rest and share them. The combination of parties included HBO, Comedy Central, FOX and DirecTVs post-Emmys celebration. HBO brought out our favorite celebs like Showtime's Mary-Louise Parker.

HBO is transitioning into fall tonight with a lineup of heavy-hitters that includes the buzzed-about
"Tell Me You Love Me" and a new, presumably hilarious season of
"Curb Your Enthusiasm." But there's one special, and quite somber, project among the bunch:
"Alive Day Memories," a documentary about soldiers wounded in the Iraq war.
James Gandolfini produced the film, his first project since
"The Sopranos." In it, he interviews 10 injured soldiers about their memories of war, their hopes for the future, and their "alive day," the day they narrowly escaped death.
The film looks both harrowing and compelling, and though it's not going to be easy to watch, it's certainly important.
