i want details!

Lisa2011 · 05-01-2008, 10:51 AM

yep yep. we should be getting at least some hints on her role. :/

**kingjames23** · 05-01-2008, 02:48 PM

I wonder if she'll have to wear a wig like Rachel.

Lisa2011 · 05-03-2008, 03:07 AM

that would somehow be interesting to see. I'd actually love that, a different hair cut & color- why not?

**kingjames23** · 05-03-2008, 04:30 PM

but it has to be a WIG.

Lisa2011 · 05-03-2008, 04:35 PM

that's what I meant. ^^ but I somehow doubt she'll have to sport a wig.

**kingjames23** · 05-04-2008, 10:44 PM

In IMDB, she apparently plays the "girlfriend".

There is a mention of Blake in today's NY Post - Page Six...not so much her but the director having problems shooting in Central Park. Blakes short looks.....interesting lol. Maybe someone can go to the Posts website and post? Having internet issues.

Brett Ratner goes out on a limb in NYC
Monday, May 5th 2008, 4:00 AM

Don't even think about having sex in a tree in Central Park - at least if you're filming it.

Brett Ratner has directed a raft of studio blockbusters, including three "Rush Hour" films and "X-Men: The Last Stand." But rarely has he run into the kind of resistance the city Parks Department put up when he sought a permit to shoot his six-minute contribution to the indie film "New York, I Love You."

We don't want to give away too much of the plot. But the story involves a teenager (Anton Yelchin) who tries to consummate his prom night while his date (Olivia Thirlby) is dangling from a tree.

"You can do what you want in Central Park, unless you're doing it for a film," Ratner tells us. "Then, you can't touch anything. Olivia weighs about 80 pounds, but we weren't allowed to have her hanging from a tree. We had to buy a dead tree from a prop house and bring it to Central Park. We also couldn't walk on the grass, so we had to get a crane to stand the tree up on concrete, then put grass and mulch around it, so it looked real."

Only then could the arboreal lovemaking begin.

"It was insane," says Ratner.

The early word is that the short, which also features James Caan and Blake Lively, was worth the trouble and is sure to be one of the most talked-about segments in the anthology, which may premiere at the New York Film Festival.

Oh, that's good to hear.

Lisa2011 · 05-07-2008, 03:11 AM

oy, okay.

thanks for bringing it over! (:

sounds..interesting. I hope her role is not too small. :/

**kingjames23** · 05-07-2008, 04:29 PM

let's hope! it's usually 5 minutes long though.
