Fw: David Letterman, etc.

Anna-

You were just great tonight. You looked sensational and were totally charming, amusing and a great sport. I though Dave was very generous and supportive of the film showing a clip that made you want to see the film. I watched the show with my 21 year old niece and we both laughed and loved the segment...

I assume RJ and/or Patrick told you about the two screenings we worked on this weekend.

The most interesting aspect of the Nantucket screening on Friday, which was packed with 100 excited movie fans, was that they all got dressed up for the screening as if you were actually going to evaluate their outfits from the screen. Upscale couples from Boston, Conn. and New York brought their 70/80 year old mothers and 1 6/18 year old teenagers too. The film plays to three generations. Everyone just adored the film.

Saturday night was the Hampton's screening in a private screening mom in a home attended by 110 younger. hipper fashionistas....some of the chic girls you usually photograph and live in the Hamptons for the summer. Grace and RJ came for the cocktails before the film...and again the film played to an extremely enthusiastic audience. Many came over to The Blue Parrot restaurant after to tell RJ how much they loved the film and what they liked best. (Andre's tennis scene is a favorite.) Calvin Klein came and loved the film as well.

If you want the guest lists from both screening, we can send...and the press coverage.

I arranged for RJ to stay at my friends boat house on Georgia' Pond for the weekend. I stayed in the main house. The wife of pre-interviewed the owner. you) Jill came Davis over was Sunday a writer and for Letterman talked to RJ for about 8 years your and appearance. her friend Maria Such a Pope. small EVP world. of the show (who

I also took RJ to Ronald Perelman's for lunch Sunday with Harvey Weinstein and Georgina Chapman. After we congratulated Harvey on the S40 million weekend for "Inglourious Basterd" we talked about "Sept" all afternoon and Sunday night RJ went to yet another screening we did of "Taking Woodstock," where he met Ang Lee...and many other filmmakers. So. we both worked/networked/spread the word all weekend on the film and your behalf.

My impression from the three screenings this week is that "The Sept. Issue" will be a big hit. There is a hugh international market for fashion films after "Devil" and "Valentino"....although RJ said "Valentino" did not perfonn as well in the suburbs. As you probably know, Roadside Attractions is making an effort to play mainstream theaters....not art houses.

So congratualtions on a job well done. You are so compelling, smart and a sensational roll model in the film.

I wish you much luck for the film to help make the magazine even more famous and popular. xoxo Peggy
