I thought we could use a thread for little quirks, tidbits, anything we noticed/found out about Wes..
In the Vanity Fair article Wes said he didn't have a favorite kind of car, and in the Life Aquatic BTS things he rides a bike...so he doesn't have a car or what?

Well, I know in an old old article called The Road Wes Traveled, disney had given him an SUV or something I think. There's also great mentions of how he's a chronic speeder (his favorite speed supposedly was 90 mph!) and had so many tickets one time they were going to arrest him. When they searched his car they found the Herman Blume family painting that was featured in Rushmore, the officer recognized it as Bill Murray, Wes made up a story about how he was on a rush assignment to get the painting to Murray for his approval. The officer called the judge from his cell phone, and Wes paid the tickets off by credit card right there to avoid going to jail. Could you imagine poor scrawny Wes in jail? Anyway, I think he rode the bike around Italy cause it was easier. I remember Owen and Vince were given bikes to ride around the set of the Wedding Crashers.

Okay thanks!
By the way, I've never seen that photo before! He looks gorgeous in it! Is that a paparazzi candid?

With his hot looks, Wes would be "the belle of the ball" (from Shanghai Knights). That is one hot photo of Wes on a bike. Note that it's a girl's bike. Aw... ;D

That's cause he was in a hurry to get to the set, and I told him I'd give him my bike if he'd give me a little "something"......and there he goes on his new bike....

I was just in Paris for the past week (my dad is a producer on Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette and they were doing post-production) but I didn't see Wes. It is kind of cold there. I looked out for him and kept some paper and a pen and my camera in case I just happened to come across him. But I never did.

I think the full article used to be on the Planet Owen site, along with the pics. I wonder if it is on the World of Owen site now. It was a very good read and I hope everyone can read it... ON EDIT: It is on the World of Owen site. Here is the link: www.wilson-brothers.com/owen/articles/setsinthecity.htm

I DID meet them as well as Jason Scwthshdfljhsadhfsdashman. His last name is torture. But I met them a few months ago when they were filming; filming is done now.
Sofia is very nice but really quiet and smaller than I imagined. She wore lots of black and gray. She's really pretty and she gave me one of her brands' t shirts, the brand is called milk fed. and the shirt is black with a kitten on it. Really soft
And Kirsten. I just don't understand why people find her ugly, bad actress, etc. I mean, are the Spiderman movies, Virgin Suicides, Interview with the Vampire (I love Tom Cruise in that) and Eternal Sunshine really bad movies? I think not. She's very bright and sunny and funny and full of life, and she has really good porcelein skin. Her brother was there a few days, her younger brother, he looks a lot like her.
And Jason Shzhdhlshmmen is very very funny and so sweet. Like the sweetest guy on the planet. I didn't ask him about Wes, but I did ask him if he liked his tight pants and he said something about them "showing "himself" off". Also he's dating Zooey Deschanel, which is cool because I like her.
Kirsten is great in this and the costumes are big and frothy and just beautiful. There's a lot of pictures up on kirsten-web.org. The whole movie is gorgeous.
