: The Yin BlogUSA's "White Collar" and anorexia(?)
By Tung Yin
I really like USA Network's "White Collar," about the unlikely partnership between FBI Special Agent Peter Burke and con artist Neal Caffrey (on supervised release from his prison sentence as a special consultant). Like many of USA's shows, it doesn't really break any new ground in format or plot, but it puts together an ensemble cast and just lets them act.
But wow, actress Hilarie Burton, who plays Caffrey's on-and-off girlfriend (an insurance investigator) is absurdly skinny. To compound things, she goes around wearing sleeveless shirts or dresses a lot, which only accentuates how skeletal her arms look. Talk about Hollywood's obsession with women being thin . . . yikes!
