My One and Only with Q&A with George Hamilton

My One and Only, starring Renee Zellweger, opening in theatres August 21, 2009! The film is wonderful, happy, sad, and very funny. Renee is excellent!

George Hamilton at the Q&A after the film screening. George is credited as the Executive Producer of "My One and Only", but didn't have direct involvement with the making of the film. He hadn't seen the film before last night's screening and when he came up to speak for the Q&A he was moved to tears.

I had no opinion of George prior to seeing him last night other than that I always remembered him as the “tan actor”. He was genuine and dignified, the perfect example of old Hollywood glam, always dress perfectly and distinguished. He was kind enough to talk with everyone afterwards and sign autographs and pose for pictures.

Appaloosa ~ Movie Review

I went to a screening of Appaloosa on Friday. The movie was a bit long, but excellent, I don’t mind if there’s a good story. Viggo Mortensen, Ed Harris, and Renee Zellweger were brilliant as well as the supporting cast. All the characters were interesting, especially Allison French (Renee), she’s not the usual woman you find in a western, a school teacher or a prostitute, you know nothing of her except that she's a widow, has $1 to her name, and ends up in Appaloosa. If you like westerns, you must see this movie.

Afterwards there was a Q&A with screen writer Robert Knott and screen writer, director, and actor, Ed Harris. I enjoyed when Ed Harris spoke about how he had bought the book because he liked the cover, and by the first few chapters he was thoroughly entertained, so he called his agent to find out if the book was available. Ed and Robert spent months working on the script and now it’s a movie!
