i just saw patricia arquette

decides2dream

on my morning walk to work, right outside the side entrance of the NY public library. all in fancy dress, so obviously must be filming...something. i am amazed at just how much stuff apparently gets filmed in bryant park, and if not a film crew...SOMEthing is always going on there. ice skating rink, fashion shows, outdoor lending library, concerts, yoga instruction...something. so many 'happenings' in such a small little park. love it.

definitely not expecting to see arquette not even 10 feet away at 9:50 AM on a NYC sidewalk. i love this place.

To be honest, I've seen more celebs in NYC than in LA!

that actually does not surprise me. NYC is so much more a walking city, whereas LA is more of a driving culture. the only place i've ever seen celebs is in NYC, and always at restaurants, outdoor cafes, concerts, museums, and simply walking around the streets.

ohhhh...i dunno. :P
hey, i live in a driving culture - altho luckily i can actually walk many places in my little village - and i work in such a walking culture, so i know them both well! and yea, i don't think ive ever had a celebrity encounter on long island. haha. oh wait, i did assist a hockey player once buying lucky bamboo - dracena. hahaha. however, i had no idea who the hell he was, someone told me after the fact. so yes, most 'celebrity encounters' here happen in stores.....NYC......everywhere!

I saw Chris Noth coming out of a Starbucks in The Village....Xavier McDaniel can vouch.

i think the X man actually told me/us this. we had a little jammer meet not long after you must've visited here. i've really seen quite a few celebrities here, last summer was the most recent up until today. however, i cannot tell you the name of the guy - one of the character actors you never know their names, just always recognize...he was in some gritty cop drama, the last thing i can recall. a group of us were all out at this fantastic outdoor cafe by the boat basin on one of the partner's dimes - always fun - and the actor and his wife or GF, just hanging out at another table. lots of little stories just like that.

oh, the only celebrity encounter i can think of outside of NY was in philly....robert plant bumping into me outside a hotel bthe night before live aid. :P



cats - i only know her from films, but i do think she has some tv show she plays a psychic, tho i am not 100%.

one of the last photos i have of my father - tho not THE last one - is a GREAT pic of him, my mom and goofy at disneyland. goofy is indeed...being goofy ...and my father was hamming it up, both my parents looked genuinely happy, and my father still looked healthy and vibrant. i may have to dig out that celebrity photo now.

I would have had to say, "arent you Alabama Whirley?"

was that her character's name in true romance?
i have seen her in so many flicks, but it's been such a long time.
she looked good btw. i mean sure, she was all done up/dressed for a film or photoshoot...but none the less, in 'real life' and pretty close, she looked good. smaller in stature than i imagined, but that seems quite common when seeing someone in reality.

never saw that flick, and doubt it would appeal to me as i am not really a stephen king fan, nor a fan of that genre period. however, that tv show was my first exposure to her, and i loved her. i've seen her in a few sporadic things since, tho i can't recall a one at the moment :oops: but she is always good. a solid actress to be sure.

well you would know better than me.


i was thinking of the excellent film laurel canyon, starring frances mcdormand in a role in think just custom-fit for her - but in a way many people would never her imagine her as such! however, she is one of those people if you were compiling a list of people you'd like to hang over drinks/coffee and shoot eh shit with, she'd be right up there! patricia arquette doesn't even register at all.....just a famous face to me.

Yes, that's it. I always loved her character in that movie. She was sweet as hell, but beat the shit out of Tony Soprano later.

i really should see that movie again, it's been sooo long. i remember it being a bit of a fucked-up, trippy ride! then again, most flicks arquette is associated with, are! :P
