Leica sighting:

Juliette Binoche almost unrecognizable with blonde hair is snapping away
with a camera with a big red dot on the front of it a Leica Deluxe 3 I think
only in silver not black unfortunately in a trailer I saw last night before
the French 20's something Musical "Love Songs" playing at the Paris Theater
just south of Central Park. Appropriately enough.

For those who are not trans-french-fixed like I am Juliette Binoche was the
gal who made the pancakes in the big American hit "Dan in Real Life" which
everybody saw.

>From the LUG I know that those pancakes would NOT have been the same and the
role was NOT written for a French women who would have of course made
Cr?pes or at least a lot thinner pancakes and would have supplied raspberry
jam. But I let it go it was a love story not a documentary.

Tonight I saw "Priceless" "Hors de prix (2006)" a return of Audrey Tautou
and looking smashing and speaking French in the French Riviera with the
great funny guy from "The Valet". Great flick.
I'd go early and see it twice.
And go to a French Caf? and have Tuna Ni?oise before or after the flick or
both. That's what I did. Before only though. At the Brasserie 360 Which
adjoined the movie theater. I had my Tuna medium rare.
---

I'll go on to say that the last time I was over there on the east side at
that theater and restaurant it was to see The Nanny Diaries (2007) with
Scarlett Johansson. (in it not my date) 6 months ago.

After a quick before the flick Tuna Ni?oise at the adjoining Brasserie 360 I
sat down to see the flick next door and the first scene of the flick took
place in the Brasserie 360. Not at my table. But the one next to it which
they made into a big one by pushing 4 tables together. And someone else was
sitting at my table not me I was relived to see.
I went to that theater (the 1,2,3) because it was in the neighborhood where
the story took place and I saw them filming some of it.
Down the street. Not adjoining the movie theater itself. No sight of
Scarlett. They were watering the streets.
Lousy flick by the way.
Don't go early. See it only once.
Its playing I'd think at your local motel or hotel or at the DVD rental
joint.
