- Kevin now definitely says the BIG NEWS will arrive next week on Wednesday, so he’ll try to get it to us very late Tuesday night, or first thing Wednesday morning. We’ll have it up here ASAP, but if it comes during east coast sleepy time, you may hafta wait until the AM to see it in print here. We’ll do our bestest for ya.
- That Star tabloid story (it’s a short Q&A with Kevin) on Jersey Girl and the Ben/Jen factor is now available for viewing online HERE. Spoiler warning!
- In Charlotte, North Carolina newspaper “The Observer†their film columnist praised Chasing Amy (as well as Good Will Hunting) recently in an article about great on-screen chemistries that ‘don’t fit conventional molds,’:
So for Valentine’s Day, let me instead recommend four chemistry-filled relationships that don’t fit conventional molds.
1) “Chasing Amy,†the Kevin Smith dramedy in which comic book artist Ben Affleck falls for a woman who believes she’s going to stay a lesbian. Joey Lauren Adams is terrific in the title role; is it coincidence that she’s never gotten another good film?
2) “Good Will Hunting,†in which Affleck and Matt Damon have one of the screen’s closest non-gay male relationships. Affleck’s “sacrifice,†where he turns his math-genius buddy loose so he can soar beyond South Boston, is touching.
The article also goes on to mention Art Carney’s Oscar-winning turn in “Harry and Tonto,†and the Cruise/Hoffman chemistry in “Rain Manâ€. That does it for us for now, so get out there and party! It’s Friday! Enjoy your weekend.
