Sorry if this is OT again, but I don't know where to put it, but we were discussing Tara earlier in the thread... We are very sorry to say that our great friend Tara Subkoff has been diagnosed with a form of brain tumor known as an acoustic neuroma. While benign, it will be fatal to her in approximately two years if not operated on. Recuperation from the necessary operation may take as long as a year. nymag.com/daily/fashion/2009/07/tara_subkoff_diagnosed_with_br.htmlUPDATE NEWS: STRONG RECOVERY FOR DESIGNER August 31, 2009 -- TARA Subkoff (above) seems to be doing well following brain surgery. The 36-year-old Imitation of Christ designer was in good spirits at a screening of "The Last Days of Disco" at the Walter Reade Theatre as part of a Film Society of Lincoln Center series. Subkoff participated in a Q&A with director Whit Stillman and the audience, and mentioned that she and co-star Chloe Sevigny are still very close. Subkoff's tumor was benign but needed to be removed.

Hmmm. I hope they are mistaken that she has had the surgery already. If this is true, she has some 'splainin to do.
When the article first went up on NY mag there were the well wishers, and the "oh my, how sad's". But the sad fact is, over half of the comments made were comments about how awful a person she is and this is her 'bad karma' ... a few even said she is such a scam artist and lies so much that she was probably making this up to to get money and sympathy. She is not well liked in NY.
I thought perhaps she had turned a new leaf. If this is true and she is out and able to attend screenings and parties and answer questions a week or so after surgery, what was all this asking for money and donations about?
She was supposed to be bedridden and in rehab for a year.

I'm excited about this movie - ditto for me 2 P.S. Little tidbit ....Sept. 16, 2009 Reese Witherspoon bought a bunch of clothes at Vagabond (37 N. 3rd) in Old City Monday afternoon where she was very friendly to staff and also called her assistants and recommended they check out the boutique too. Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, along with 11 crew members from the annoyingly-untitled James L. Brooks film dined at Morimoto (723 Chestnut) Monday. They had shot a few doors down at Union Trust (717 Chestnut). Witherspoon went for a glass of Kono saubignon blanc, a house salad and shared several fish and sushi offerings with Rudd, who sipped Morimoto's Soba beer. Guests buzzed about the celebs in the house, but left them alone. Witherspoon and Rudd were also spotted late Saturday/early Sunday having drinks at Parc on Rittenhouse Square where Witherspoon sipped bourbon presse while Rudd went for Scotch on the rocks. They stayed after closing time, leaving around 2:45... Speaking of the film, Owen Wilson's shooting is over and he has left town, while Rudd, Witherspoon and Jack Nicholson, should still be here through month's end... #wink#

2:45...

Though I guess shooting schedules are not that logical... I really need to re-read this thread, I have forgotten what's known and what's not

Aw, if that's true then Jetty never got an Owen sighting. Too bad.

Morimoto is an awesome restaurant!
Floot, they don't film movies in chronological order, so it doesn't really say anything about the plot of the movie that he is done filming.

Yeah, I kind of thought that after I posted it... though if Rudd is on the film for longer would that suggest a bigger role? I don't know. I'm rambling... just ignore me lol ;D TG - I wondered that, I wasn't sure if I'd just missed Jetty reporting a sighting. What a shame.

Owen and Reese were filming for a long time before he showed up. Remember the meats in the rain pictures?
Did you guys know that Reese and Tara used to be roommates for quite a while in Los Angeles? Strange huh?

Ahhh I didn't know that, no, and it didn't occur to me - see, rambling - as usual *laughs* Engage brain before opening mouth (or in this case, before flexing my typing fingers!). I'm slow of brain today I'm afraid... Re: Tara and Reese - no, I had no idea! Huh - small world, as they say. (yes, I do remember those pics! I am really curious as to what that was about quite intriguing...)

No, I didn't know that about Tara and Reese either.
Floot, the only thing I know about the plot of this movie is that it's a love triangle between the three principals. Owen is supposed to be a professional baseball player (I think!), and Paul is supposed to be some kind of white collar guy (don't remember exactly what - an accountant? A stock broker?)
Yes, I'm curious about the context of the meat-in-the-rain pics. That will be funny. I hope that sequence doesn't get deleted.
I'm sure Jetty would have reported if she'd seen Owen. It's a shame she didn't get to see him.

Oh I'm sure she would have - I just know that I haven't done the best job keeping up so I could have missed it. But I guess it's not me and that she didn't see him - what a shame.

Owen is supposed to be a professional baseball player (I think!), and Paul is supposed to be some kind of white collar guy (don't remember exactly what - an accountant? A stock broker?) I've been trying to guess if it's a "girl gets distracted by flash sports guy before realising her dull boyfriend is not that full after all" type story or a "girl is with the safe guy but realises he's not the right one for her" type story. Though I guess there are other possible variations those seem the most likely? I guess we'll have to be patient. Not one of my strengths...! Yes, I'm curious about the context of the meat-in-the-rain pics. That will be funny. I hope that sequence doesn't get deleted. I hadn't even thought of the prospect of them deleting that scene - let's hope it's as funny as it looks and we get to see it!

You may have it pretty much figured out, Floot, as that's pretty much all one can do with a triangle. Unless the girl ends up with neither guy; that would be an unusual ending although it has been done. (Ending up with both would be really unusual, ha ha. That would be a plot from Big Love ;D). I learned a long time ago there are basically about only 5 different possible plotlines to any story. (And, honestly, I couldn't describe them right now). It's the details that make the story. I expect the meat platter in the rain would be a funny scene. I hope it stays in.

Searched youtube to see if anyone filmed the action... a lot of Reese, but not really any Owen

I'm surprised there aren't more videos as filming has been going on for quite a while and openly too. Shame there aren't any of Owen so we'll have to wait until the film is released.

A small snippet on this film which is still often said to be 'as yet untitled'. MTV spoke to Reese Witherspoon this week and she said filming had been wrapped up only a few days before. When I saw the film's release date on IMDB as 17 December 2010 I was a bit disappointed that it isn't this December, but that would be a really quick release if they were still filming late October. Oh well let's hope it's actually out earlier than that. moviesblog.mtv.com/2009/11/03/reese-witherspoon-sheds-some-light-on-her-untitled-project-with-james-l-brooks/
