Yes, I was that close to one of my favorite actresses in the whole world, Sarah Jessica Parker. I sat in the front row and wore a really loud shirt.
When we meet again, she’ll remember!
What a lovely lady! She had an air of humility about her and was very engaged in the conversation we all had about being parents/moms and juggling careers/the house/the kids/the spouse/everything. I suspect that while she may have a different lifestyle than a lot of us, she also has 7 siblings who keep her grounded on life in other parts of the country.
Would you like to know how the movie was?
Delicious!
I thoroughly enjoyed it. And not just because I did not have to pay!
It was funny throughout and very warm. There were some great lines in it and SJP’s assistant in the movie was a great supporting character.
I think it is an enjoyable movie for everyone, and definitely a great movie for parents to see so they can laugh at the recognition of the trials, tribulations, and imperfect lives that we all lead.
