Heather Graham’s recipe for love

For Graham, romantic love “begins with a love for yourself. You can’t love another person properly if you don’t love yourself.”
Though she is not currently in a relationship, Graham is adamant she has not given up on romance.

New Canadian big-screen film ‘Cake’ confronts modern relationship dilemmas
When it comes to romance and independence, can you have your cake and eat it, too?
That’s the question posed by a new romantic comedy called Cake, which opens in theatres across Canada on Friday. It’s Canadian in that it was written, produced and directed by homegrown talent, although two bankable American stars – Heather Graham and Taye Diggs – have been cast in the leads.

A Considerable Town
On a recent Tuesday night, the rooftop penthouse level of the Checkers Hilton pool was the scene of a wrap party for Broken — a low-profile indie with high-profile stars Heather Graham and Jeremy Sisto backed by Linda Hamilton, Jake Busey and a cast of 20. No Pat O’Brien, red carpets, PR flacks or paparazzi here; this affair was a low-key throwback to when independent films were really independent and so were the wrap parties.
Up on the roof the movie stars hung around the swimming pool on a spectral summer night. That secret Art Deco alcove provided a view of all the natural and man-made wonders of Los Angeles — skyscrapers towering into a perfect, blue, cloud-laced, edible L.A. August sky, jumbo jets swooping gracefully into their approach. By 8 p.m. there were around 100 cast and crew eating, drinking and relaxing.

TV writers take digs at Utah, Mormons
Small-Screen Stereotypes
By Vince Horiuchi
The Salt Lake Tribune
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. – New rule: Television needs new jokes about Utah and its people.
TV’s view of Zion seems to be confined to ultraconservative, closed-minded Mormons who refuse to have sex. At least that’s the sense viewers might have after a recent barrage of TV series – ranging from HBO’s political comedy show “Real Time with Bill Maher” to “Desperate Housewives” and “Cold Case” – took well-placed shots at Utah.
For political comic Maher, whose talk show ends with a segment about the state of America called “New Rules,” the Beehive State is a favorite target. For example:
“New rule: The next reality show must be called ‘America’s Stupidest State.’ We’ll start at 50, and each week, if your state does something really stupid with, say, evolution or images of the Virgin Mary, you’ll move on to the next round. Of course, the final five will always end up being Alabama, Utah, Kansas, Texas and Florida. Sorry, Tennessee.”

Unhappy ending for movie love affair
IT IS the Hollywood divorce that eclipses even Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston in sound and fury, but next month Harvey and Bob Weinstein finally break up their successful but tumultuous partnership with Disney after 12 years. And as with many divorces, the split has caused some devastation, since this is a divorce with children. As the company winds up, almost two dozen long-overdue films have been taken off Miramax’s shelves, dusted down and sent out into cinemas to face their uncertain futures.
When you watch The Crying Game, Pulp Fiction, Il Postino or Chicago, the first thing you will see is the stylised rendering of the Manhattan skyline at night, the brand image of Miramax. In the 26 years since founding the company, which they named after their parents Miriam and Max, the Weinstein brothers have become the most influential executives in the indie film world, charging up the art-house sector with a more competitive, more aggressive approach to marketing their movies to the mainstream. A Miramax movie carries the promise of a little darkness, a corkscrew of the conventional, emotion and danger.

Incase you’ve missed it, ABC’s Emily’s Reasons Why Not site has several video previews of the series and if I may say so myself, it looks very promising, funny and sexy! So many sure to go and check them out.
Emily Sanders has many things going for her. She’s young, single, has terrific friends and a great job in publishing. In fact, she’s got the hottest selling book in town. Unfortunately, she’s just closed the chapter on her relationship with the roguishly handsome, two-timing author.
Now a lovelorn Emily must face the fact that the self-described “flutter-flutter” of her heart can’t be considered a trusted compass. However, like any successful professional, Emily has a plan. From here-on-out, she’s going to listen to the “Reasons.” Five “Reasons Why Not” and he’s history. The “Reasons” will not only guide her in matters of love, but life in general. For instance, steering clear of her back-stabbing former assistant, Glitter.
Based on the bestselling novel of one successful single woman’s search for love, this smart and stylish comedy explores life, love and sex in the city from an independent woman’s point of view.
