So last night was the big party from Time Magazine. Once we got there, we walked past that huge sign with all the company logos where celebs pose. The photographers realized we weren't celebs and didn't take our pictures. Sad times. Across the street were people just camped out watching the celebs walk by, so it was cool to be able to walk right into the building.
The party itself was pretty swanky... there were little Swarovsky crystals scattered everywhere and there were two bars made of ice. Open bar, of course, which was bad news. Well, not really. The final celeb list, for those of you I didn't harrass with texts, was Reese Witherspoon, Jake Gyllenhaal, Clive Owen, George Clooney, Don Cheadle, Shekhar Kapoor, Tilda Swinton, and a really really hot Indian actress, Sameera Reddy. They made a run for the VIP section behind the bar, but they had to walk by us first. If you go to the bar to get a drink you could just stand there and gawk. That's what we did, and we saw Reese dancing to MC Hammer. It was cool at first but then we just stopped caring that they were there. Eventually we got into that VIP section where Don Cheadle was the only one left. He was sort of frantically realizing that no celebs were left so he peaced out. After that we made some friends, exchanged cards, drank more wine, and peaced out. It was really a lot fun though because people were really great, and the music was pretty kickass too.
So, today we're seeing a b&w documentary on this crazy Italian opera singer, and then we're seeing this Spanish movie called King of the Hill, which I picked based solely on its title. I mean there are only a handful of well-known movies here with big stars, and the rest you just sort of pick and choose. And tomorrow is Elizabeth and The Last Lear!
That's all for now...
