"My favorite person to greet when I get to work.. that would have to be Evangeline. She's a great hugger."
Terry O'Quinn

She deserves it. She's a hottie.
Matthew Fox

I knew that [Lost and Alias executive producer] JJ Abrams had such a fantastic track record that I wasn't concerned at all. The kind of confidence and poise that she has exhibited is remarkable.
Matthew Fox

Evie is incredibly charming, and she's fun to be around.
Matthew Fox

One of the things Evangeline has handled so amazingly is the pressure of the whole thing… I just want to help her in any way I can and make sure nobody is getting in the way of it
Matthew Fox

She's so beautiful it's hard to concentrate around her.
Matthew Fox

She's a Christian, but she's a pottymouth.
Dominic Monaghan

She knows what's important to her, and she isn't willing to have those things change.
Dominic Monaghan

Isn't she pretty?
Dominic Monaghan

She's a very, very attractive woman. She's just very real. You know, what you see is what you get.
Dominic Monaghan

There's a lot of that Christian good girl in her, but sometimes certain things come out of her mouth. She's got the devil mixed in there too.
Jorge Garcia

She has an absolutely filthy, filthy mouth. She can swear like a sailor and dress provocatively, but that doesn't reflect her beliefs. She's a walking oxymoron.
Bryan Burk

When J. J. said 'Stop!' and we saw Evie read the scene for the first time, we were all like, 'Get that girl on a plane immediately!'
Damon Lindelof

She was beautiful, but there was a goofy quality about her. It didn't feel like she wasn't a human being.
JJ Abrams

I saw her videotape that was sent in from an agency in Canada, and I just knew from the audition, by the little choices she made...I have had the experience on Alias and Felicity working with people who had never been given the lead before. And it was clear that this was someone who had a natural gift even if she didn't have a résumé of a dozen roles, let alone one.
JJ Abrams

We've scratched beneath the surface of the public persona of Evangeline Lilly and found quite an impressive and authentic young woman who's independent, adventuresome, a goal-setter and a caring humanitarian. She possesses extraordinary qualities and has great integrity and we already see many parallels between her and the Karastan customer who seeks out a distinctive, unapologetic lifestyle.
David Duncan

She ain't ugly, is she? She's a beautiful young lady.
Josh Holloway

It's all genetics. She doesn't have to work. She's just lucky. No, I'm kidding (laughs). She is a little machine.
Josh Holloway

She's a wonderful, natural actress. And she ain't ugly.
Josh Holloway

I'm madly in love with her.
Art Streiber (photographer)

She is the most down-to-earth girl and has a wicked sense of humor.
Lisa Storey, personal makeup artist

Thanks for the new thread and all the updates, Katie

The thread looks great! I especially like how you redid the lastest pictures section.

I thought I would repost this for anyone who didn't get a chance to see it in the old thread:

-Katie- · 06-28-2007, 11:04 PM

The tiny banners are kind of basic but I tried.

I got the idea from the Sophia board.

Jenna16 · 06-28-2007, 11:13 PM

I think the banners are a really good idea. Our opening post has gotten so lengthy, so its good to highlight each section!

Alamogordo Daily News - Film crew wraps up White Sands shoot

Film crew wraps up White Sands shoot
Alamogordo Daily News
Daily News Report
Article Launched: 06/29/2007 12:00:00 AM MDT

Filming in Alamogordo took place this week at White Sands National Monument. A French production company, bringing more than 70 crew members, was welcomed by officials from Otero County, the Alamogordo Chamber of Commerce and the organizers of the 2008 White Sands International Film Festival according to a news release announcing the filming.

Shot over four days at White Sands National Monument, this film was supported through the efforts of the chamber of commerce and key members of the White Sands International Film Festival.

The news release noted both organizations are seeking to raise the profile of southern New Mexico as a prime location for the production of feature films.

Ed Carr, executive director of the chamber, offered assistance through the support of film liaison Jan Waffle, with extra support provided during the final days of shooting from David Gibbons, executive festival producer of the reshaped International Film Festival, and festival colleagues, the news release stated.

"The shooting of the movie 'Afterwards' this week at White Sands National Monument demonstrates again the attractiveness of Alamogordo and our area to film makers," Carr said in an official statement. "The cast and crew of around 100 provided a nice shot in the arm to many local businesses.

"With the movie 'Transformers' coming out next week, the movie 'Afterwards' hitting the screens in the near future and the upcoming White Sands International Film Festival, Alamogordo will be getting a lot more attention from the film industry."

Gibbons met Russell Smith, the film's U.S. producer, two days before final wrap. Smith said he appreciated the support provided by all the parties from Alamogordo.

"Film productions of this magnitude can have a positive affect not only upon the city of Alamogordo but also the whole of southern New Mexico," Gibbons said in the news release. "It is to the benefit of all those living in this region that these productions can have a positive affect in terms of economic as well as marketing impact."

Gibbons commended what he called the "very special relationship" built between the Alamogordo Chamber of Commerce and White Sands International Film Festival, based upon the collaboration in supporting the objectives of bringing film production to southern New Mexico.

The international film festival is seeking the cooperation of production companies, such as the one behind this film, to return for screenings during the March 2008 event. It also hopes that key actors, directors and producers will also return to discuss the various processes and methodologies of today's filmmaking business during the festival's seminars for filmmakers. The film is scheduled for release in 2008.

The film is directed by Gilles Bourdos and stars Evangeline Lilly, John Malkovich and Romain Duris.

I'm not sure. I don't know when the date is. I think she might have gone back to brunette because she her hair also looked darker in the Afterwords set pic.
