Is that her father?

 

[scriptgirl]

No. Her dad is normal height and better looking.

That's the second time I've seen that really tall guy. I always wondered who he was.

NY NY | Tropfest in Tribeca, "Fatboy" Uptown and Yom Kippur

On The Scene coverage presented by "2 Days in Paris."
by Charlie Olsky (September 27, 2007)
This week in New York, the Film Society of Lincoln Center gave its younger cineastes a chance to loosen up with "Run, Fatboy, Run", while Two Boots Pioneer Theater provided a place for Jewish New Yorkers to atone for their sins. And the Tribeca Film Festival threw its first "Tropfest@Tribeca", an offshoot of the popular Australian short film festival.


---
Thursday night, Lincoln Center treated a mostly 20-something audience to an advanced screening of David Schwimmer's upcoming release "Run, Fatboy, Run" and a Q&A with Schwimmer, stars Simon Pegg and Thandie Newton, and screenwriter Michael Ian Black. The showing was part of its bi-monthly "Young Friends of Film" program, designed for film enthusiasts between 20 and 40 to access Film Society's programming (the series generally has past entries from either the New York Film Festival or the New Directors/New Films Festival), along with Q&As from cast members, directors, and/or critics associated with the work.

Thursday's screening, then, was decidedly against type. "Fatboy" is the story of an out-of-shape security guard who trains for a marathon in order to win back his gorgeous ex-fiance (Newton) from her unctuously perfect current beau (Hank Azaria). It's not the usual fare of the Film Society - likeable, slight and occasionally quite funny, but far from the brilliant genre satire of Pegg's more notable work in "Shaun of the Dead" or "Hot Fuzz". The modest aims of the film were summed up by Black, who explained his inspiration as "I thought to myself - 'Fat Guy runs a marathon - that's a good idea for a movie!'".
The screenplay started out life based in New York, but was transplanted to London after London-based company Material Entertainment optioned the script, with Schwimmer attached for his feature directing debut; Pegg did some quick brush up work- as he put it, "'He runs past the Empire State Building' changed to 'He runs past the Millennium Wheel'", Schwimmer was now directing a British film, complete with the lovely Thandie Newton (the audience learned, after a tense moment, that it is pronounced "Tandie", not "Th-andie"), who must have been surprised to find herself in a movie with the word 'fat' in the title.
The film is at its best when exploring the competition between Azaria and Pegg - summed up terrifically in a locker room scene in which Azaria -- the most unattractively buff guy this side of infomercial mainstay John Basedow -- threateningly displays his manhood to an awe-struck Pegg, whose facial reaction is all the more priceless for being authentic.
"Hank had the option of wearing a modesty thing," explained Schwimmer, "but he left it off." Pegg has his own reason for his stance -- "It didn't escape my attention at any point that I was looking at Moe the Bartender's c*ck."

NEWTON'S FASHION THEORY

EVERYBODY knows Thandie Newton's a girl of good taste and she proved it again last night when she turned up to the premiere of her latest film, Run, Fat Boy, Run. Obviously everybody had so approved of the Giles Deacon dress she wore to Harvey Nichols party when Giles launched his Mulberry collection there, that she decided to go monochrome again - but this time in a dress by one of our most recent favourites - Nathan Jenden. And the Galliano-trained Brit, who doubles as creative director of Diane Von Furstenberg, is more than pleased with his new client. "She epitomises the type of woman I design for," he told us. "A successful, strong working mother. I'm really excited that such a well known British actress should choose one of my designs, partiulcuarly just before Fashion Week - it feels like the fun has started." (September 4 2007, AM)

Thandie Newton
Actress Thandie Newton says her co-stars are bearing the brunt of her practical jokes on the set of new film, Run Fat Boy Run.

She says the main target of her tricks has been co-star comic actor Simon Pegg.

Newton has revealed how she had filled all Pegg's water bottles with vodka at the media event to promote the film.

At the Hospital Club Awards
I don't mind, cause she looks gorgeous, but Thandie is showing up at everything this year. Reminds me of how Shelley Winters said Ava Gardner would show up at the opening of an envelope.
