A Box Office War Between Mr. and Little Miss Smith
Another day, another Hancock premiere for Will Smith and Charlize Theron. The actors opened the Moscow Film Festival yesterday with smiles, though they looked a little less overly friendly than Wednesday's red carpet. While Will was running around Europe his daughter, Willow, premiered Kit Kittredge in NYC last night. Both Hancock and Kit Kittredge are opening on July 2nd and when asked about beating her dad in the box office Willow said, “I think I’ll be the biggest flashing star...Yes…I’m going to post up on daddy’s movie. Willow is the star.” Sounds like there's another Smith looking to own Independence Day weekend.
The historic takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which could come as soon as this weekend, moved to the forefront of the presidential campaign Saturday.
In the arena that night, the whole last minute was drowned out by cheers — and then when the soaring music swelled, the confetti rained down as the harbinger of balloons and the hopeful first family took the stage, forget about it — it was a perfect end to a convention that last Monday, no one even knew if it would happen. But it did, and I'm so glad to have been there.
