Norah Jones: dressing slutty, covering Arcade Fire, popping up in SNL skits with Samberg since 2006. But for all that range she's been flexing of late, her biggest departure from being gramma's favorite contemporary artist comes this year, when she plays the lead role in the Jude Law/Natalie Portman/Rachel Weisz-starring Wong Kar Wai film My Blueberry Nights. Bluenote put together this little EPK to to pimp the soundtrack (which features labelmate Amos Lee and co-star Cat Power), but she talks a little about how she got the role and the film in general. Plus, she seems nice. Still waiting for more El Mad Mo, though.
