Yes, thank you, Red. Those are lovely, large and clear.

The man looks good in any color but I think the blue might have a favorable affect on his eyes. Just one of the many things I'll be watching for when I go to see the movie.

Oh and psssssssst, coco. The UK premiere has been confirmed as the 28th April. Location TBC but I'm sure it'll be one of the Leicester Square cinemas. I know what I'm doing that day. How about you?

Red

Oh I wondered when the date was for the UK.

I'll be going in to work on Wed and booking the day off that's for sure.

Sooooo excited for you both!

Thank you for that link. They all have nice things to say about Alex, and Alex has a real grasp on what chemistry is. He's so articulate.

Thank you coco... that was a joy to read. And I loved what Alan Poul had to say about romantic comedies... they have become trite... way too trite. Hoping BUP proves that rule wrong.

Thank you for link, Coco
Great article !

Wondering if anyone on this board has heard anything about a premiere of BUP other than the one in Hollywood - the kind the stars might attend?

Ohhhh my (PNW's) Bob... I am going to so love this movie! And now I cannot WAIT for the DVD, because I'm imagining all sorts of extras and goodies and wonderful things on it...

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

Great article, coco. Thank you . And ITA on the romcom thing (I knew Alan Poul was a smart guy) - when Tracy and Hepburn made them, they were the highest art form.

And what a fab little clip!! Thanks, Grace. How much do I love the way Alex says "reckless abandon"?

Could someone translate/transcribe for me what they are bantering when Alex was lying across of JLo on the ground? I just can't get it.

[allegrita]

Stan says, "I'm not being fresh, but your ass is on fire!"
Zoe says: "What?!"
Stan: "Your ass is on fire!"
Director: "Cut!" (Cut! in background)
JLo: "It's funny! Let me do it!"
Alex: "I let you have some! I gave you some--" (he's ducking as she goes after him, yelling something I can't decipher, and laughing)

[francis]

Ah, thank you!
