Navy SEAL, 'Chon' (

'Ben', (
Aaron Taylor-Johnson) have established. She kidnaps their shared pothead lover
'Ophelia' or

If you're a fan of
Taylor Kitsch (who seems to have the worst luck in choosing movies), be sure to check out these
original movie costumes from John Carter on display.
Plus if you're an admirer of
Aaron Taylor-Johnson, take a look at these
Oscar-winning costumes from Anna Karenina.
Stay tuned for more cinematic treasures spied on my most recent visit to the
